Out Of Reach
written by: Josie Dee

There’s a moment
In this turbulence
The trepidation as I step up to the crossroads
– Where I realise,
There’s a disturbance
The fear holds my heart steadfast as it implodes
In that moment
I realise,
As my heart splits –
– I’m still in love with you – despite it all.
There’s this void in myself that can’t be made complete
But I simply want to live –
Is it too much to ask
Of my heart
– To ask of you
Without falling further,
Without falling apart
The life I have, not to be a fool
Not to live on the edge of what’s out of reach
Since 2012 I have written plays using Shakespeare's language and framework to create new adaptations of his work for a touring theatre company.
