Blues and Greens there are blues and greens then, there are dreams then, there is me and you and the … More

i have turned my life on its head
those, ‘established things’,
i left them for dead…
how many relationships –
simply tread water

the story of a girl
that parenting abandoned
and responsibility allowed to stray

but with her arms around me
and legs so tightly wrapped
dependency beckons
and there is no going back

they say they are right
and it is others –
who are not very bright
and they insist,
that no one else is ever missed

i saw the baby last night
just a week old
a life just waiting
for the world to unfold

its message was loud and clear
strangely,
it made me want her more
and i wanted to pull her near

it is there
on the tip of my tongue
i almost say it
then the words stare at the sun

you found things
which i thought were lost
things hidden in boxes
under the stairs or up in the loft

my anger towards you,
i fear,
it will never truly subside
it is the way you dig
