‘I am here at the heart of my life’ -

The line falls between the weight of moments

And then the future pulls you from my sight;
Frames of light flicker past me
Reeling forward

The way they go by reminds me of my pain

But even there it falls upon my eyes
And I falter out in to the night of London Street;
A swollen darkness you can’t imagine
That sways and holds my resigned better selves

Maybe I’m losing both of us –
Tell me I’m not
Maybe our lives are tipping over;
Take me;
Raise me up
And lately my heart has slipped my hold
But maybe
Maybe I can reach

And maybe I’m an island, but make me like the sea
To pour across your shores and borders
Before it covers me
I will cover up the scars for you
And the dead parts of the past for you;
Uncover your eyes for you to see
That no one has loved you this way;
Nobody will love you this way;
And though I know you feel it
I need you more to know
Am I strong enough to carry this?
Or too weak to let it go?
