How is it going to work. 9/4/99

leaving home all over

again,

kiss each wall

and shed a tear.

what amazing people

dazzling me with

their eyes and sounds

bright lights

colours blur

stroke my face

feed me sweet things

soft in my mouth

hold me close

tell me im ok

that i was meant

to be

that i'm allowed here,

my presence required

make me smile and cry

in equal measures

and just don't ever

leave.
