Pants Down

We're both
To blame

For this 
Disaster 

Never stopping
To think 

What would
Happen after

They found out
What we did

What was once
Just a fling 

Has now
Fucked up

Everything 
And left us
 
Knee deep
In shit

Easy Tiger

Why don’t we stay?

Drink some beer

Eat our food

Enjoy ourselves here

I’d rather go home

And take you to bed

So we can have fun

In there instead

Had We Known

The more

I think

About it now

The more

It’s clear

To me

That we were

Always

Meant to meet

But just never

Destined

To be

False Pretences

Now that it’s all

Said and done

There’s still

One answer

I lack:

Why the fuck

Did you let me

Love you

If you didn’t want

To love me back?

The Illusion

With each day

That passes by

Things become

Less of a blur

Now I know

I don’t miss

You at all

Just who I thought

You were

You Should Tell Him

In order

For things

To go

To plan

You have

To make one

First

No good

Ever comes

From

Putting it off

Just because

You fear

The worst

Fuck My Life

I told myself

I wouldn’t do this again

I’d never put myself

Through all this pain

Yet here I am

Overthinking

It’s no fucking wonder

I feel like drinking

I really should

Have learned by now

No good ever comes

From such nagging self doubt

Now I can but hope

That my brain shuts down

While I circle the drain

And get ready to drown

“Oh, I Can’t Control Myself…”

I wonder

If today

Will be the day

You call

To tell me

That you need me

And how you’re aching

For it all

So I’ll sit here

And wait

Making sure

The line is clear

Because yours

Is the only your voice

I am desperate

To hear

“Love at first sight, to me, sounds like suffocation or stalker material.”

Late Night Ponderings

What would it be like

If we met

Would we hit it off

Or just regret

Ever agreeing to a date?

Maybe we should keep

The fantasy

By just staying friends

Digitally

And leave the rest to fate?

0

Volumes

There’s nobody to wake me

Or offer me a drink

No one here to greet me

Or ask me what I think

I always thought I’d be happy

If I was on my own

But I’d never considered

How I’d become so withered

From the silence of being alone

Just Watching TV

I don’t really know

What happened

I’m not sure

Why I cried

Something

Just reminded me

Of how I felt

The day he died

You were amazing

With me

Your words

So soft and kind

Your touch

Helping to soothe me

Drying the tears

From my eyes

I know

That I struggled

To tell you

At the time

Just how much

I loved him

And truly miss

That man of mine

Yet what I’m sorry

I couldn’t say

But really

Wanted to

Is how happy

I know he’d be

To see

That I’ve found you

Lunch Dates

I knew it wouldn’t work

But I said yes anyway

I just needed to prove

That one afternoon

Couldn’t chase

My demons away

Ten Years Too Late

If only you

Could see me now

I’m sure

That you’d be proud

I think you’d agree

I’m as I should be

And you’d say you love me

Out loud

For Real This Time

It was really nice

To see you today

Now time has seen

Most memories away

Yet when I said

Goodbye, my friend

Both of us knew

This is the end

The Odd Text Here And There

In another place

And another time

I’d be yours

And you’d be mine

But as we’re here

And the time is now

Seems we both

Have to settle

For just chatting,

Somehow

2

For Your Eyes Only

I read those letters

Yesterday

The ones I sent

To push you away

And yet you stayed

Seeing through my plan

And that is why

You’re my favourite man

0

For The Best

As wonderful

As one night may seem

I simply can’t agree

To such a scheme

As being with you

Even for a minute

Would leave a pile of shit

And me knee deep in it

Going, Going, Gone…

If only you could wait

She said

I’d make it worth your while 

As much as that appeals

He said

Hanging around just ain’t my style

Calling In Sane*

Why do we even bother

She said

When it’s such a fucking farce

It really makes you wonder

She said

How anyone can be arsed

Reassurance

All it really needed

Was for you to take my hand

To whisper to me, sweetly

And to say you understand

Bearing A Torch

As I run down
This darkened road
My heart beats fast
Ready to explode
Just thinking
Of what lies ahead

Little do I know
As I follow the flame
It’ll turn out to be
Such a shame
As you’ve walked
The other way, instead

Boring

If we ever

Met again

I’d explain why

I walked away

It wasn’t that

I didn’t want to chat

But I simply

Had nothing to say

2

Underneath It All

And when

I decide

To end it

Know there was nothing

You could’ve done

I just never, ever

Felt happy

I didn’t know how

To have fun

“Burn my body. Let the ashes blow. I am free.”

Dead Cert

You’re a gambling man

She said

What odds would you give me?

On you seeing it though

He said

I’d give you 2 to 3

In The Wings

If only

You would see me

The way

That I see you

But now you’ve gone

And married her

To wait

Is all I can do

Green Flag

It’s nice to have you around

She said

I feel better when you’re here

I wouldn’t be anywhere else

He said

I hope that much is clear
