Alien Abduction Poem by Mark Heathcote

I can't doubt you—you're my best friend on earth
I can't doubt you because my heart's under attack
how can I doubt you, when you're my universe?
I'll stand rooted to this spot like an insomniac.

I'll wait here to hear your footsteps crush somewhat.
I'll wait here for you if it takes years or months
I'm going nowhere, you can't destroy me as such.
I'll take your insults darling, that's the crux...

You can't punch a hole in my biosphere dear
you can't tilt the axis of my hemisphere
it's an alien abduction, but I can't wave adieu
because I've no doubt, I still have some faith in you.
