Like the Salmon

Struggling upstream

like the salmon

on way to a final destination

Someone poach me please,

Catch me, or save me

Reel me in, and take me

somewhere safe

Wrap me in cotton wool

not tin foil

And love me,

Don't eat me!

Vulnerable as a bluebell

in winter

 thats me

Scared as a fox

in mid hunt,

Sad as the last

apple on the tree

hurting like a bees final

sting

don't pity me my friend

don't wash me in sympathy

just look at me

through truthful eyes

Just love me.
