come through

took myself off

have those feelings

happen from time to time

came back into the fray

the fold the theatre of war

you’ve come through?

she’s asking like she cares

has expectations of a breakthrough

that this soul had been broken

i’m all good i go y’know

everything is still the same

i can feel her disappointment

decide to go deep

nothing changes in the long run

we win we lose we go on

we meet good people

who turn out to be bad for us

the pain comes it goes

we get up to another day

that is just how the world

& its’s dog days flow

ah you poets! she smiles

hiding your hurt your pain

using words to hide your world

pretending to let us in but

never saying what you really mean

i let that all go because you do

she’d not heard a word because

nothing changes either way
