Uncertain Emotions

By meltingman

Nobody...

Envelopes full of carefully broken glass
To lodge behind your eyes so you would see

Nobody wanted your dance,
Nobody wanted your strange glitter - your floundering
Drowning life and your effort to save yourself,
Treading water, dancing the dark turmoil,
Looking for something to give -


Excerpt from 'God Help the Wolf after Whom the Dogs Do Not Bark' by Ted Hughes.
