The quietest whisper
The most secret sound
The clue is that
It is all around
Swimming in water
We don’t know the fish
Til it’s served up to us
On a dish
And I lost the rag
I held onto
Got angry at him
Her, them and you
In the storm of the winter
I weathered a foe
Blew shit apart
Coz it would not let go
And I ended up somewhere
I can’t entertain
Beseeching others
To hear me in vain
And like the midnight
It comes then it passes
There must be more
Than getting A’s in classes
As I struggle to find
A deeper hue
A more vibrant red
A more trustworthy blue
And she says the dream
Is all that she knows
He looks to the side
Like anything goes
But the trinket to find
And then discard
Is all that you have
When life gets hard
And it picks you up
Like a sullen saviour
Don’t say that you love me
If it means that you hate her
