I hold my breath for '30
Hands clenched up under chest
Our daily trips, the beams, the mask
And little space to rest
I dare not say ‘why us’ once more
Humbled - i've seen - i've heard
But stump, bemused – I question
How life got so absurd
were our dreams not said out loud enough
Did no one care to hear
I dare not say ‘why us’ once more
Lest a Merlin doth appear
Because…
