I should have really taken notice of the obvious<\/p>\n
\n
They had presented themselves to me all week<\/p>\n
\n
But I ignored them and travelled to the big city<\/p>\n
\n
At first things went well and I felt fine<\/p>\n
\n
And then little by little I began to sweat<\/p>\n
\n
Until it was dripping from my hair and running down my face<\/p>\n
\n
I felt awful and thought only of my bed<\/p>\n
\n
Which was far away in the quiet countryside<\/p>\n
\n
I travelled underground in an effort to move around<\/p>\n
\n
But ended up hunched on the platform benches<\/p>\n
\n
Some people noticed my distress but ignored me<\/p>\n
\n
I was either a drunk or a junkie or worse<\/p>\n
\n
They did not want to become involved<\/p>\n
\n
For the first time in my life I felt frightened<\/p>\n
\n
As I was losing control<\/p>\n
\n
I was no longer in charge<\/p>\n
\n
The city in its way was swallowing me up<\/p>\n
\n
And because of this I ran and ran and ran<\/p>\n
\n
Until I could clearly hear your comforting voice<\/p>\n
\n
And feel your arms around me in our central bed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
