Newton Park
Casting their knowing eyes on me,
The sheep give me their look -
With this look comes the weight of
Every decision I have ever made,
But just as quickly as it comes
It disappears.
I find myself floating, floating
Through the swirling clouds
In this autumnal early evening sky, like
A balloon full of understanding.
Higher and higher I go,
But when I think of you, I go slow -
So I remind myself to continue flying,
Flying…
Until suddenly, I am falling -
Falling on my face,
Deep in to the midst of these ever-knowing trees,
Where I am showered with dying leaves.
I am so hypnotised by the sound of the running stream,
That I feel quite at ease and find myself
Daydreaming, dreaming this moment is real.
The scent of autumn consumes my body and comforts me,
Until I no longer hold any pain -
Despite there being an threat of heavy rain.
