Nowhere Else To Be
I’ve looked into your windows
and I’ve hung around your props
with the hope of catching glimpses
just before the curtain drops.
Not a sign of recognition,
not a word of what’s to come;
nor a look enough to satisfy
or work out how it’s done.
Was it me who I made love with,
was it me who was so real;
and if you were but a shadow,
was it me I learnt to feel?
Was I but a passing ghost
with an angel heart to boot,
with the means to fill your soul with peace,
but not the means to suit?
Love may be eternal,
yet do we ever learn to see
that we only fill our heads with dreams
when there’s nowhere else to be.
G.B.A. circa 1988

This is so true, especially the last two lines. |
