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
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
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
Don’t you dare
Cry for me
I don’t deserve
Your tears
I’d left him behind
In my mind
Way before
He disappeared
I know
You’re feeling anxious
I can sense
How scared you are
But if you
Can let me
I promise I’ll
Go gently
And to barely leave
A scar
You’ll never know
How many times
I wanted
To walk away
You’ll never know
How many times
You were why
I chose to say
I’m not sure
She said
If I did the right thing
Trust me
He said
He’ll definitely ring
Maybe it’s you
Maybe it’s me
Maybe we’re both
Just lost at sea
Of all the men
It has been
There’s no one
That compares to
Yet of all the men
It will be
I must accept
It’ll never be you
It is
No longer
Up to me
It’s so
Far out
Of my hands
Now
I only hope
For a sturdy rope
And that,
One day,
You’ll understand
I really hope
You’ll meet me
And we’ll leave
Hand in hand
But the journey ahead
Is risky
So if not,
I’ll understand
As the days
Get colder
And the years
Go marching on
I feel the joy
Of growing older
Is nothing short
Of a con
I did
What I did
All those years
Because
I thought
I loved you
But now
I can see
How you
Treated me
And what a shell
That turned me
Into
So many lines
So many phrases
Readers of all kinds
Still fucking amazes
I will always say
That I’m doing well
And that nothing
Could ever annoy me
Because if I didn’t
That look
On your face
Would absolutely destroy me
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
Xxx
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
Your wandering soul
All alone
With your bones of ash
And heart of stone
If only you could find
Your way back home
I’d hold you tight
And never let you go
Xxx
If only you knew
You’re heaven sent
How you just listening
Helps me to vent
But you never will
‘Cause I’ll never say
As I wouldn’t risk
You walking away
Of course
It’s sad
Don’t
We know it
But they’re just
Not ready
For us
To show it
It all
Felt better
For a while
You made
Me laugh
You made
Me smile
But now
It’s over
And
You’re gone
So again,
I’m left
All alone
You have
To ask him
She said
Otherwise,
You’ll never know
But I think
I’d just die
She said
When he says
Inevitably, no
Spooning
My heart out
Drowning
In blood
You have killed me,
In a way,
That no other man
Ever could
