There is a child within me George Bichard (Year 12)
There is a child within me, With every breath I take, half of it is snatched From the boy sitting in my lungs. And I ache. There is a girl in my eyes She stomps about in wellington boots Her rain dance tugs tears. And when they all dry up, her stomping leaves muddy purple prints. And I ache. There is something gnawing at my heart An animal clawing at red wet clay And I ache.
