And remember
Sitting
head tilted
looking skyward
into the deep pitch blackness
of that cool May
when the stars were telling us

let’s not sleep tonight

And don’t forget
Time stood still
scratching its back upon
rough bark skin
of the old oak
a few paces back

it was only us
moving through
the stillness of time
speaking to the night

it was only us
moving our lips
to taste the mist
from the rains
of attraction
showered through
yesteryears

And my head
Fell down
along your cheek
as dawn rushed in
to say goodbye

Black Ash & Green (Sessions with my Therapist) by Pearl Barley C M Donaldson

She never felt safe at home as a young girl, and didn't understand why when she finally escaped she wasn't safe in the big wide world either ...effectively jumping out of the frying pan into the fire!
