Brendan McCormack


when you are alone and no one knows the quiet words

that are in your head

and you believe that all is lost

and that no one will ever hold your hand again

or listen to your voice

or kiss your lips

or whisper love in your ear


and the beach stretches cold for miles and miles

and the loneliness is an axe in your soul


come read, come read, i too am there.
