The boy was barely five years old.
We sent him to the little school
And left him there to learn the names
Of flowers in jam jars on the sill
And learn to do as he was told.
He seemed quite happy there until
Three weeks afterwards, at night,
The darkness whimpered in his room.
I went upstairs, switched on his light,
And found him wide awake, distraught,
Sheets mangled and his eiderdown
Untidy carpet on the floor.
I said "Why can't you sleep? A pain?
He snuffled, gave a little moan,
And then he spoke a single word:
'Jessica.' The sound was blurred.
'Jessica.' What do you mean?
'A girl at school called Jessica,
She hurts' - he touched himself between
The heart and stomach - 'she has been
Aching here and I can see her.'
Nothing I read or heard
Instructed me in what to do.
I covered him and stroked his head.
'The pain will go, in time.' I said.
