There you stand

You’re my flag pole
When the thoughts of my mind
Whirl like a dervish
The fabric by violent winds
Curl in a flurry

There you stand
Always stable
Never flinching
The centre of my stillness
The calmer of my storm

You’re the light in all this darkness
You’re my breath
In this toxic atmosphere
When you arrive,
My heart crumples like paper

All my resistance melts, like a glacier
My true resolution rises
One and strong
I am reconciled, sorted
I hear clearly the notes

And words of my song
