NOVOBITE First Edition 2015
Green fields and a clear blue sky,
help only for a moment
To rid me, of the bed I insist in to lie.
Wait till I find the strength,
to starve them out.
Wait till I know the answer,
with no secrets to count.
I see clearly,
the mess surrounding the Loch.
Whether they do,
Whether they do, or not.
A lonely footprint can be
consumed by water and sand.
But who’s walking with me?
Who’s holding my hand?
Or will I have to hold me,
hold me, to hold myself?
Through times of trouble,
through hands undealt.
Change not these emotions
which keep me alive,
But wrap them in dreams
where I can do but hide.
Live with me in safety
from attackers of evil mind,
For I will protect you
Even if you do not love me inside.
Blue days, dark nights
give way to fresh mourning.
Stolen thoughts of grief
Plead a need to hurt him.
Although we’re not taken
with my wider plan,
Is it me, or you
who keeps scarring this boy,
this man?
