Wasting Time

If only I was sure

He thought

That she feels the same way

I just wish he’d ask

She said

To her friend, later, that day


Admissions

Looking
at you

Looking
at me

When will
we tire

Of this
malarkey

Pulling The Wool

The worst part

About what happened

Is that your role

Is still unexamined


Capitulation

I’m
now
ready
to walk
away

As you’ve
made it
impossible
for me
to stay

All I
hope
is
that
one day

You
are as
unhappy
as I am
today

Dead Inside

I know

That depression

Is cyclical

Yet I’m still taken

By surprise

Whenever

It hits

And I feel

Like shit

As the light fades

From behind my eyes


Sprung

The beast has crept back in again

She’s beaten down my door

And there was me,

Foolishly,

Thinking I wouldn’t need pills anymore

For someone else

It suddenly occurs to me

That a finer analogy

For your behavior

There could never be

For

Way Too Eager

Well it’s not like I can help it

Said the moth

To the flame

My attraction to you is hard-wired

Well your way of showing it

Said the flame

To the moth

Leaves a lot to be desired


Wings

Fuck
this
shit

Said
the
moth

To
the

It is
never

It’s all
your

To

For
going so

Gold Dust

Even though

We only

Get one heart

I still

Gave mine

Away

But our love’s

Duet

I will never

Regret

Until

My dying day


Nothing Left

I
loved
you

And
you
loved
me

So now
my
penance

Is
never
to be
free

To
love
again

The Long Way Down

I remember

When I heard this

Oh how I laughed

And laughed

To know that finally,

And rightfully,

You have fallen on your ass


Music To My Ears

So I’ve heard that you

Are starting to feel

Like you’re reaping

What you sowed

Well all I can say

Is poor, poor you

I hope your pain

Has overflowed

As I, for one,

Cannot express

Just how happy

I am to know

That perhaps now you

Can comprehend

How it feels

To be alone

“I’m OK By Myself”

Someone asked me

Today

Why I prefer to travel

Alone

Because it’s easier

I said

Than listening to other people

Moan


Better Off Dead

Sometimes
I
wonder,

Is
this all
there is?

Just
boredom,
emptiness

And your
endless
bullshit?

I couldn’t
think of
anything
nicer,

Than to be
somewhere
else
instead.

Far from
all the
anxiety
and pain,

And your
words
plaguing
my head

Sleeping Alone

I thought having sex with strangers

Would get him out of my head

And though it filled a hole

That wasn’t my goal

So now it’s back to my own bed


Going Too Far

Lying
here
alone

In
this
strange
bed

Wondering
what the
fuck

Was
in my
head

Now I
must
ignore

This
feeling
of dread

And
stop
wishing
that I’d

Stayed
home
instead

The Asylum Called – They Want Their Jacket Back

If only one day

He’d answer back

Instead of just little

Old lunatic me

Shouting into the black


Into The Wind

As my life passes me by

I lose the will to even try

So I raise my hands to the sky

And scream why me, you arsehole, why?

Mutually Exclusive

Between your happiness

And mine

I’d pick my freedom

Everytime

And I am forced to choose

You really should be prepared

For the fact I won’t pick you

Fucking Fluoxetine

I enjoyed my trip

Up to the heavens

Albeit for just

Those thirty seconds


One Night Only

This bed’s not big enough

For the both of us

So I’ll be the one to leave

We should just be glad

For the time we’ve had

And the little bit of reprieve

The Sudden Calmness

They were all hoping

The blues would fade

But they were unaware

My decision was made


Rope

I know
I can’t

My soul

is sore

I feel

We Haven’t Got All Day

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

It’ll Need Stitches

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

Imperfectly Perfect

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

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

At The Train Station

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

Your

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

Let us

Laugh
out loud 
betwixt

Kiss
amidst

Until

You more than deserve some happiness

It’s like I’ll never be free

From the memory of all the nastiness

Just

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

That we were once here,
Full of youthful cheer,
Just tears my soul apart.

That’s it.

No flowery language.

No poetic licence.

I just wish you hadn’t died.

Simple.
