Taking Cover
Slowly, slowly
he walks
behind
I feel
as if
I’m loosing
my mind
I turn, I turn
and face
to him
I ask
“When
will this
all end?”
He takes, takes, takes
my hand.
He says,
“I’m trying
to understand.”
I speak,
“Don’t try
just do
and know
if you
don’t stop
then I
will go.”
Tears fall, fall
down
my cheek
they burn
my face…
and make
me weak.
I run
for cover
to get
away
but pain
is here
won’t die,
it stays.
