He often looks up the calming blue sky
That’s the clarity he holds on to
combating the tangled emotions he lives with
He has been him for so long
and he has been fighting this complex battle ever since
He cannot comprehend it all
not now or not ever
Some past is best left undiscovered
and some history is best unknown
He loves the blue sky as his earliest memory
He remembers looking up from the darkness and he saw the same clear blue sky
Writer’s note about Blue Knot

Blue – the colour of the sky resembles hope
