I Saw The Truth Cry – Written June 2007 (Aged 32)

I Saw The Truth Cry

i have seen the hate
from battles not won
motorbike dreams
and a distant drum
i have watched the drunk
as they reveal
all the things inside
they thought i wasn’t watching
but i saw them cry
i have seen the anger
of a past not resolved
space journeys,
into somewhere cold
i saw you with fire in your eyes
i saw you drink wine
till is loosened up the inside
then through the anger
i saw the truth cry




James Garratt – June 2007
