"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
It’s only hypothetical
Because too much time has passed
Though I’m pretty sure
If I wanted more
You’d say yes, if asked
Hypothetically Speaking
Do you
ever think
of me
In those
moments
you have spare
Do you
ever
dream
Of running
your fingers
through my hair
Do you ever
imagine how
it would feel
If you
held your
hand in mine
Do you ever
long to look
into my eyes
And feel
our souls
entwine

What can you do
When you’ve been mistaken
When you realise your life
You have forsaken
When you can’t go back
And start again
When it’s only regret
That does now remain
Double Take
It’s only
now I
realise
I’ve
played
this all
wrong
And it
actually
should
have
been
you all
along

You’ll be here all day
She said
There really isn’t much to find
Well I will never stop looking
He said
Until the end of time
Digging For Gold
Kindness
lives
within
you
He
said
Of
that
I am
the
judge
Then
by all
means
try to
find it
She

I think you’ll find
We’re in charge now
We say when
We say how
No longer will we be
All small and meek
We will approach you
If it’s sex
We seek
Too Late
You
only
want
me
now
Because
he
says
he
does
Well
you
had
your
chance
But
you
rebuffed
my
advance
So go
jump
in front
of a
bus

She never did see it
And now you’re apart
You have been left
With wounds that smart
If only you’d listened
To my remark
You could’ve saved yourself
The broken heart
You Deserve More
I wish you
could see
yourself with a
different view
And know
there are so
many things to
love about you
My only hope
is that she
will see it
again soon too
Then perhaps
you could both
just stop
making do
(Originally Posted 17.09.2019)
Are you sure that you’re done
She said
You’re not even up for a fling?
I am absolutely sure
He said
I’m no longer ‘up’ for anything
A Solo Affair
I’m fine
by myself
without
all of
that
Just me
here
alone
in my
own flat
I don’t
need to
feel anyone
else’s
touch
As frankly
I never
really
liked it
much
(Originally Posted 16.09.2019)
I can clearly remember
Their wedding day
All of that promise
On display
It’s such a shame
It ended that way
And now love’s young dream
Has faded away
The(ir) Split
It’s
not
about
what
she
did
Or
what
he did
either
to be
fair
It’s
about
how
it has
made
me feel
As for
the
rest
I could
not
care

If only I actually was
This little minx that I portray
I’d get my coat and hat
And without looking back
Go have myself a field day
Fuck Buddies
I
won’t
always
be
here,
you
know
For
when
you
feel
the
need
to
ask
Not
while
there
are
more
dicks
to
blow
And
other
glows
in
which
to
bask

Will you still love me
When I am old and grey
Will you still want me
To touch you in that way
Will you still need me
To kiss you goodbye each day
Or will you just find someone else
And simply walk away
A Risky Business
We really
shouldn’t
do this,
she said,
it isn’t
the right
time
It’s now
or never,
he said,
for I’ll
soon be
past my
prime
(Originally Posted 14.09.2019)
You’re actually quite romantic
He said
When you put your mind to it
But therein lies the problem
She said
I just can’t be arsed to persue it
When Lightning Strikes
It’s like
we’ve been
connected
forever,
he said,
but it’s only
been a minute
However long
it’s been,
she said,
I can’t
remember
life without
you in it

This one was a warning
To a guy who should’ve known better
He’d hurt my friend
So this rhyme I penned
To let him know how much he’d upset her
Trip Wires
If
love is
not what
you say
But
what
you do
instead
Then
you’ve
fucked
up
On
both
counts
mate
So I’d
be careful
where you
tread

He never did finish that sentence
Or did he help me to fly
He soon did away with the pretence
And left me high and dry
Learning to Fly
No,
she
said,
I don’t
think
I can
Just
trust
me,
he
said

You should never go to bed
On an argument
That is what they say
But what do you do
When he always blames you
And you argue every day
‘Turn Away On Your Side…’
Was
I always
wrong
Or was
I sometimes
right
Not that
it matters
anyway
Now I’m
alone at
night
(Originally Posted 10.09.2020)
Men may have since
Shared my bed
But they have never
Shared my head
Like you
Fuck Knows
My days
are sad
My nights
are lonely
Fuck knows
if I’ll ever
Only be
true to you

It happened quite by accident
As when she left the tent that morning
There was no way she could have known
That a whole new era was dawning
But as they both sat drinking wine
With their connection forming
She began to realise, at last,
Her heart was capable of rewarming
The Lost (We)ekend
I
don’t
know how
we got here
But
here
we are
nonetheless
We
should
just make
the best of it
Before
we have
to reassess
(Originally Posted 09.09.2020)
It’s better to have loved and lost
Than to never have loved at all
And it’s better to hide the knives,
I find,
To protect your abdominal wall
The Dagger
At
least
I don’t
feel pain
anymore
As my
insides
spill
to the
floor
(Originally Posted 04.09.2020)
If love was all you needed
Then we’d all be happy as fuck
So it’s about time that we conceded
What you actually need is luck
Nowhere Near
I love you
You love me
If only that was enough
For us to be happy
(Originally Posted 03.09.2019)
I’m glad that you agree
She said
It’s most definitely for the best
They’d never forgive us anyway
He said
If we ever confessed
In Another Life, Perhaps
What
happened
the other
night
She
said
Must
never
happen
again
It
pains me
so much
to say it
He
said
But
we’re
better off
as friends
(Originally Posted 03.09.2020)
He wasn’t.
In fact, they never are.
Forever
My happiness
is fleeting,
she said,
but my pain
is forever
I cannot help
repeating,
he said,
that I’m here
for you whatever
(Originally Posted 02.09.2019)
It seems her wish
Wasn’t his command
Nor was ensuring
Her needs were met
This became
Pretty obvious
When they went back
To bed
Three Wishes
She stops
and sighs
as he
implores
her to stay
But I don’t
think you can
help me,
she says,
turning away
He looks
and smiles
as he
reaches for
her hand
Just trust
me, he says,
your
wish is my
command
(Originally Posted 01.09.2019)
Don’t get me wrong
It’ll take much more
Than just a smile
For my heart to thaw
But until such time
It doesn’t mean
That we can’t have fun
In between
Your Smile
Even
though
my
heart
Resides
in the
deep
freeze
Your
smile
has the
power
To make
me weak
at the
knees
(Originally Posted 27.08.2019)
You can deny it
All you want
Claim that you
Would never stray
But if I was to check
What’s on your neck
The truth would be plain as day
Love Bites
You
wore
your
roll
neck
jumper
So
you
thought
I wouldn’t
see
But
believe
me,
I know
full
well
Those
marks
weren’t
left
by me

I must’ve overdosed on Disney
Or read too many fairy tales
For endings like this
Don’t actually exist
As true love always fails
Sleeping Beauty
I wish I could sleep forever
As silly as that seems
For then we’d be together
Happy, in my dreams
(Originally Posted 25.08.2021)
And so they sat,
Together in time,
Talking until dawn.
Not just did they speak,
Of their lives past,
But also of those to come.
Past Lives
I think I remember you,
she said,
I think we’ve met before.
Perhaps it was when I was young,
she said,
and before my heart was sore.
I don’t remember meeting,
he said,
although I really can’t be sure.
Why don’t you sit down now,
he said,
and talk to me some more.
(Originally Posted 24.08.2019)
That being said
Given what happened in bed
One thing is certainly true
If I ever planned
To have a two night stand
It would most definitely be with you
In Beero Veritas
Who’d have thought
That we’d come to
Both half dead
And needing the loo
Perhaps we should
Have thought this through
Instead of getting drunk
And doing the do
(Originally Posted 23.08.2021)
He knew right then
As he watched
The tear fall from her eye
It was best to forget
And to just let
His feelings for her die
Silent Conversations
Not yet
but soon
she says,
as she makes her
way to the door
But when,
how soon
he asks
as he stares
at the floor
Not yet
but soon
she says,
as her head
is slowly bowed
But when,
how soon
he asks
will we
be allowed?
(Originally Posted 22.08.2019)
Do you know what, fuck this shit
She said
I’ve had enough of being polite
I really think you’re it
She said
And not just for tonight
Unsaid
Wouldn’t
it save
all
this
fuss
and
bother
If we
were
just
honest
with
each
other?
(Originally Posted 20.08.2020)
I remember everything about you
Your cardigan, glasses and quiff
If you weren’t so much older
Maybe I’d have been bolder
And asked you out forthwith
Last Chance
Despite my
protests
to the
contrary,
it has
always
been you.
Why not
meet me
at the
library,
and I’ll make
your dreams
come true.

For someone who never married
He said
You write about it often enough
Perhaps I was wrong all those years
She said
His proposals to rebuff
The Disengagement Party
I saw you looking
Over dinner
Your smile discreet
Hers a winner
I realised there
Was something more
When she sashayed
To the dance floor
I knew it then
In revelatory style
It was obvious we’d never
Walk down the ailse
(Originally Posted 17.08.2020)
Next time
I’ll buy my own
Tarnished
That
ring you
gave me
yesterday
Has
turned
my finger
green
A more
appropriate
metaphor
for our
relationship
I have
never seen

I wrote this one
While hanging on
For a reply to a particular text
As I had shown it
I thought I’d blown it
And wasn’t sure what was next
As it was
It was just a pause
As you wrote back in earnest
And so then I knew
I still had you
And that my effort was worth it
Reassured
The relief
is palpable
My anxiety
is pacified
Our normality
is restored
Thank fuck
you replied
