My trusting heart
and hopeful soul...
Embrace me in your loving arms,
protect me with your heart...
Packing my suitcase
taking the kite runners too...
Enclosing myself
away in a shadowed ball...
Rumours of red eyes,
Eeriness creeping closer...
Silently scared,
she cowers in the corner...
...
First version of the poem...
Shivering from coldness, she sits alone
in the abandoned forest of over grown trees...
Snap.
My heart...
Driving in the car along the country roads,
watching the wildlife running in the fields...
The man in the moon has a smile
on his face, as I search the stars...
Ever so quietly, I watch you
with your desperate ear wide open...
