‘No, it’s not like any other love

This one is different because it’s us’

Eric

‘When the seagulls

Follow the trawler

It’s because

They think sardines

Will be thrown

Into the sea’

With one
hand
pressed
against
the door

I try
to work
out who
I love
more

And in
that split
second
I decide
to stay

I throw
my one
chance at
happiness
away

It feels
like I’ve
been robbed

Of the
only love
in my life

This pain
runs deep,
she sobbed,

As it cuts
through me
like a knife
