"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
You’ve had more
Than enough time now
To decide once and for all
What you need to do
Is just tell us now
So we can both prepare for the fall
On Tenterhooks
I really don’t care
If I win or lose
Either way around
I just wish you’d choose

I can clean it with antiseptic
He said
And cover it with a plaster
It won’t make any difference
She said
It’s still a fucking disaster
Bleeding
It feels
like I’ve
been
robbed,
she said,
Of the
only
love
in my
life
This
pain
just
runs
so deep,
she sobbed,
As it
cuts
through me
like a
knife

All those memories
Good and bad
Making me smile
Driving me mad
Yet lying here
It makes me sad
As we never knew
Quite what we had
The Old Days
Waking along
this empty street
Splashing puddles
with my feet
I remember when
we used to meet
And my broken heart
skips a beat
(Originally Posted 05.12.2019)
Trying
In vain
To feel alive
There’s one more
Mountain
Left to drive
Hometime
As the hurt starts to subside
And the pain begins to fade
I’m never too far
From the reminder
Grief is still the sharpest blade

We could have chatted
All day today
If only the sea
Had swept me away
The Beach
I’m
glad
I spoke
to you
today
Even
though
it was
only
the
wind
That
could
reply

You felt it
As I did I
When we locked eyes
That day
Now you know it
As do I
And so,
I walked away
‘Guilt’s A Heavy Load’
Your
mouth
is full
of spite
She said
The
words
you use
are savage
It must
be so
hard for
you
She said
To carry
around
such
baggage

As I stand here
Taking snaps
Comparing them
To years past
I am struck
By the magnitude
Of how much I now
Love my solitude
(High)lands
Let us
roam
amongst
the
heather
Laugh
out loud
betwixt
the
blether
Kiss
amidst
this
stormy
weather
Until
we
come
undone
together

Why do you still deny yourself
He said
You more than deserve some happiness
It’s like I’ll never be free
She said
From the memory of all the nastiness
Forbidden Love
Come
a little
closer,
He
said,
I want
to see
your
face.
Just
you
stay
away,
She
said,
I daren’t
risk
another
embrace.

I really did love you, you know
I wish I’d told you so before
And now you’re gone
Nothing can be done
But to regret it
Forevermore

We
only
really
reached
halfway
When
you
went
and
died
on me
Now
what
was
once
bright
is grey
As
I deal
with
life’s
debris
(Originally Posted 02.12.2020)
Waves crash,
As memories smash,
Against the walls of my heart.
That we were once here,
Full of youthful cheer,
Just tears my soul apart.

Another
day passes
And I
miss you
like mad
As through
rose tinted
glasses
I remember
what we had

The Death Of Me
Nearly twenty years together
And what do I have to show
Just a blackened heart
Now we’re three years apart
And sadness the status quo

Walk down the aisle with me?
She said
The bakery aisle, that is
I thought you were being serious
He said
And my heart just skipped a beat

Thunder rolls
Lightning strikes
As grief still cuts me
Like a knife

I just wish you were still here.
That’s it.
No flowery language.
No poetic licence.
I just wish you hadn’t died.
Simple.
Xxx.

There’s nothing

There’s nothing

For my love was
lost to me forever
One year
ago today

I
remember
like
it
was
yesterday
All
the
doctors
had
walked
away
And
it was
just
me
and
you
Holding
hands
in
that
hospital
room

Where is it you’re going
He asked
To the mountains
She replied
I need the peace and quiet
She said
To get through the day he died
This Next Wee While
If you
notice
that I’ve
gone
There is
no need
to worry
Sometimes
I have
to run
away
From
situations
in a hurry
But
do not
doubt my
return
Please,
fret
ye not
I will
be back
very
soon
To
fully
reclaim
my
spot
(Originally Posted 30.11.2019)
If we’d had a plan
When all this began
Perhaps we could both advance
But as things are
We’ve gone too far
And now none of us
Stand a chance
Obvious
At a
different
time
In a
different
place
The
answer
would
stare
us
Right
in the
face
(Originally Posted 30.11.2019)
It really isn’t a ‘bargain’
To buy when and what you’re told
It’s just a load of shit
Pushed by capitalists
Who revel in taking your dough
Every Friday Is Black
Fuck off
with your
‘limited’
deals
The endless
offers and
pathetic
sales spiels
Think about
those already
in over
their head
And go hawk
your wares
somewhere
else instead
(Originally Posted 29.12.2019)
All I get
If I look up
Into the twilight sky
Is a fucking crick
In the back of my neck
And bird shit in my eye
Somewhere Out There
I’m sure
your star
shines
brightly,
Up
there
in the
sky.
I try
to search
for it
nightly,
Yet it
always
passes
me by.

It doesn’t hurt as much
To look nowadays
But I’ll admit
That I don’t too often
As some of the things
We got up to back then
Are probably
Best forgotten
Polaroid Memories
I can no
longer
look at
at your
face
My
eyes I
have to
sheathe
For
tears
begin
to flow
at pace
And I
can no
longer
breathe
(Originally Posted 28.11.2019)
Many more moons
Have passed since then
And plenty of suns
Now too
In fact it’s been
1,458 days
That I’ve been here
Without you
Xxx
Many A Moon
As that
day draws
ever closer
The pain
cannot be
avoided
To think
it was just
a year ago
When my
whole world
imploded
(Originally Posted 28.11.2019)
I think we both knew
Deep down
That she would soon
Become another
That you’d be left
A husband bereft
And your kids
Without their mother
Now I know
That she had longer
And to her death
You had all faced up
Still it pains me so much
To see you
In the Under 50’s
Widow’s club
The News Nobody Wants
I hope
it all
goes well
today
I hope
with
all my
heart
For I
couldn’t
bear
for you
To live
as I
now do
And
have
your lives
torn apart
(Originally Posted 28.11.2019)
You always were the joker
Who we could count on for a laugh
So it’s been hard to watch you
Being literally torn in half
But you don’t have to pretend with us
Or put on your best gameface
As we know, one day, that humour
Will return to its rightful place
GameFace
All I do is let
people down
They want
me to smile
But I can
only frown
For I no longer
have the energy
To be the person
they want me to be
(Originally Posted 27.11.2019)
This is still my answer
To most questions nowadays
All since that day
He went away
And I inherently changed
Passive
Who knows
And, quite frankly,
Who cares
(Originally Posted 27.11.2020)
You can say sorry
All you want
And truly mean
What you say
But when you’ve been burnt
All that pain and hurt
Doesn’t ever
Just go away
The Bargain
Who knows
when our
time will
come
But I fear
it’s not
just yet
For you
have to
forgive
yourself
And I
have to
forget
(Originally Posted 27.11.2019)
One day I
Will tell the world
And dance in the flames
As your name burns
My Lips Are Sealed
Don’t you worry
I’ll never tell
How much you hurt me
And put me through hell
But not to keep
Your good name intact
But more to ensure
You never come back
(Originally Posted 26.11.2020)
It’s been a long time
Since I’ve seen you
But don’t think I have forgotten
How truly rank
And repulsive you are
That even your insides are rotten
Grandiose
I’ll always
be the
better
person
But
there’s
no need
to sweat it
I will
always
be hanging
around
To make
sure you
don’t
forget it
(Originally Posted 26.11.2019)
Please don’t think,
Darling boy,
That you’re special
In any way
As you were not
The only one
Who saw to me
That day
Sinderella
Is that
really
the time,
he said,
I should
grab my
things
and leave
Well don’t
let me
keep you,
she said,
as I’ve
got others
to please
