This town

Don’t let it bring you down.
This town.
The hurt and the pain,
not again.

She swung on the same swing as her grandmother,
higher, faster and harder.
The same child’s smile.
Overlooking the harbour.

Dont let it bring you down.
No frown.
The hurt and the pain,
the same stain.

She climbed the hill.
Tired but relentless.
She would not give in
to the original sin.

It was clear,
sincere.
She had no fear.
Dont let it bring you down.
