The Sand and the Sea

Paul Bell

Between the sand and the sea

 

He’s free

 

The crashing of the waves

 

Mean he’s safe

 

Slightly broken

 

But only in mind

 

Some Days he’s fine

 

Don’t shout

 

Don’t crowd

 

But be around

 

He may ignore you

 

Say hello

 

Next time, who knows

 

He has a story to tell

 

His inner hell

 

He’ll make you laugh

 

He’ll make you cry

 

But don’t pry

 

The story runs for years

 

All about fear

 

Brave as brave can be

 

Strange to see

 

Anger, tears

 

Voices in ears

 

He’s won the battle

 

They’ve told him so

 

But he’s slightly broken

 

He doesn't know

 

Between the sand and the sea

 

He’s free

 

The crashing of the waves

 

Mean he's safe.
