Compassionate Friend

Compassionate Friend

 

Oh dear compassionate friend!

Who has lifted me over the rocks and mountains of my own making

Who ever present in trust

Banished lesser captives

Unlocked, freeing even the most dangerous of specters

Went forth

Let beasts out of the cage

With gentle hands

Crafted them, unfinished out of clay

Teasing them from nothing into something

 

You left diamonds dancing in the eyes

And waves that wanted to destroy

To crash and take

Whole villages where left barren & departed

 

To thrive, they had to go elsewhere

There was nothing left to live off

 

A journey was begun

But without you

Stillness would have become

A lifeless pond

A cesspit         

A gutter

The unwanted birth of bitter twins

Decay and demise
