Naomi

When your back is against the wall

There will I be

Having your back

Not because you have mine

But because…

Do you really need a

A raison d’être

A reason, a purpose

A life of love

Of caring

Of giving

Of living

Life

It comes once

It goes once

Betwixt the pain and pleasure

We spend it

Riding the storms

Together

Till that once

When it fades away

Like the ethereal

That brings out your animal

The beast within

Brought out by the beasts without

Clamouring for favour

Fervour, flavour

Slaver… savour this moment

Slave… you’re not a knave

Be brave, be strong

You come alone you go alone

Carpe diem!
