It's in the past - can it really effect me now? - John Ashleigh. - 04 December 2005


Behind.

Normality all but lonely;
A four year old left in the cold.

Breathe upon an altering change,
For an hour left to hold.

Behind the grey pupils,
Love in vengeance, grasped tight.

Wanting to hold his hand again;
Sacrificing for time to fight.

***


No one knows what it’s like.

Not completely understood, probably the age gap, but the words and flow I loved. Hang in there life gets better.
