Martin Strain

Hair black as coal, eyes as blue as the sky.
You held me high, like a bird in the sky.
When the world was against me, you were there.
You protected me.
...

Do not mourn me,
I am stardust.
I am the universe and, the universe is me.
I am the sand between your toes,
...

I came into this world. Cold, scared and in pain.
You were there, you held me close and I knew everything would be ok.
Home from school, crying and hurt.
You were there, you held me close and I knew everything would be ok.
...

Feeling sad……you are there.
Feeling desperate……….you are there.
No one to turn to…….you are there.
Comforting…….
