Here, Uncertain

Anna Rowsell

Here, Uncertain

Words by Oliver Cocks

 

Here I stand, uncertain of you.

 

Why do I ache with oldness?

 

Fam, you know I’m young.

A proverbial zoomer.

 

So, why do I feel

the onslaught of years?

 

Stan for what you say, and

you make me young every time

 

we shimmer together.

 

Keep my heart one,

don’t slice it like so much ribbon.

 

You can be the main character,

for me.

 

The only character, in fact,

in our heaving romance.

 

Be you, truly,

and I’ll rear my shrine to you.

 

Oliver Cocks
