Just off, stage left

Just off, stage left

I can feel it waiting in the wings
Some sort of revelation
Some movement in my grief
I’ll tackle it soon
Let it in
To flow through
And heal something

But first I need to get through today
And say goodbye to M
Then
I can take look
Come out from behind the sofa
And tackle it head on

And it starts with the cry
“I want my baby back”
Tomorrow yes tomorrow
I’ll take a look

Tick Tock

This one is an experiment inspired by Ed Sheeran simply posting the words “tick tock” on twitter…

Tick tock
Time can take you anywhere
And maybe bring you back
It might fight against you
Or leave you struggling to keep up
It might be on your side
Or have you slowing down to wait for it
But whatever happens
It never stops
Just goes on
Relentless and inevitable
Tick tock…
