Please,
Just give me something
Even if
It’s only one word
I don’t need
Your comfort
But just to know
That I’ve been heard
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Please,
Just give me something
Even if
It’s only one word
I don’t need
Your comfort
But just to know
That I’ve been heard
I thought of us
Again today
And, as always,
You made me smile
It was a welcome break
From all the heartache
Even if only
For a while
I don’t think
I’ve missed you
More than I have
Today
There was nothing
I could do
To help push
These feelings away
And even though
It is now
Nearly twenty six years old
I have realised
My love for you
Will simply
Never grow cold

Happy Valentine’s Day
He said
Here’s a teddy
And some flowers
I’d rather go without
She said
Than have to sit with you
For hours
You can try
To work me out
You can try
To take me apart
But all you’ll find
Is a fragile mind
With a bitter
And blackened old heart
Come on over
We’ll watch TV
I don’t expect
You to sleep with me
We’ll have pizza
And a drink or two
Then after that
It’s up to you
What you said
That day
Hurt me
How you treated me
Was wrong
So I’ll make sure
You get yours
To rapturous applause
Before
Too fucking long
I did
What you wanted
I took you
To the brink
But you
Should know
That down below
I never
Felt a thing
You took me
For granted
And so
You’re paying the price
Perhaps you can
Now understand
How it costs nothing
To be nice
I know
Your words
I forever
Negated
But your
Kindness
Was always
Appreciated
I’ve craved
Your touch
Since we met
In fact
I’ve known
Nothing else
You’ve consumed
My mind
So much so
That no
Other man
Can help
If there’s
One thing
I know
With complete
Certainty
It’s that
I’ve seen
Enough rain
To last
An eternity
