Another Pair of Eyes
They are not afraid
would not succumb
not so easily preyed
I will protect you
I wish I had another pair of eyes
see me through
It’ll understand
like no-one will do
standing still in the sun
folded arms guarding
precocious little
precariously watching
they are never afraid
not even succumbing
so easily led
fiercely protected
how we prayed
for another pair of eyes
just in time
mine
it will be me
some exotic part of you
curiously looking
bellowing uncontrollably
