Shell Shocked

From the heart, shell shocked..rocked.
Coming up with salt in my eyes, waves
of emotion... feeling like suicide.
Anger impales my nerves..I have no
patients.. Pain lingers like the
dew on a leaf..suspended in time,
where's the real me? Have I died?
Weather's crap, it's rained all
day.. the car park attendant
insisted I pay. I sat, flask
in hand.. drenched .. cold.
CD stuck on my favourite
track... Lionel Richie,
how many millions he sold.
'Once, twice.. three times a'..
tears rattle down my face.
A car blasts his horn..
Blink ..sweet drops of
emotion dribble past
my lips, lick quick
salty taste of shattered
dreams...'And I love you.'
