Attached

I am an island, I’m a grave
of past lives. Make the sound from cave
appeal to better outer world
and pass the way, too long and curved,
and bless my lonely stormy night
from which I ran at speed to bright
and saving mornings, failed and weak.

I learnt how hard it was to speak
to you, without being ignored.

I am an island, with a cord
of flesh and blood attached to land
on which you live,
on which you stand.
