My "Friends" Part II

They Hang There Like Cocoons..
They Have No Purpose Now,
You Try And Persuade Yourself,
You Try And Find A Meaning,
There Your Lifeline,
Your Energy Source,
Your Wheels To A Car,
The Breath In Your Lungs,
The Drinks In A Bar..
 
They Don’t Need You,
You Need Them,
There The Beat In Your Heart,
The Blood In Your Veins,
You Never Shall Part..
 
This Was My Thinking,
These Were My Thoughts,
Until An Almighty Darkness,
Roared Like Thunder..
Covered My World
And Pulled Me Under..
I Needed Help,
I Needed My Team,
To Rally Beside Me,
To Make Themselves Seen..
 
I Looked Round For Help,
One By One,
Blank Expressions Faced Me,
A Terrifying Memory Surfaced,
Sapphire And Steel..
I Was Very Young But Remember
How It Made Me Feel,
A Man With No Face,
No Feeling,
It Was Only A Program But All Seemed So Real..
 
How Poignant That I Should Come Face To Face With That Nightmare Once Again..
