Limitations

I’m sorry

I couldn’t comfort you

When that text

Came in

I saw

How you were struggling

To keep it

All within

But I have been there,

You see

And I can’t

Go back again

That’s why I couldn’t

Be the one

To help you

With your pain

At The Steel Mill

I’m glad that we were introduced

And shared a drink or two

It’s been ages since I’ve had a laugh

And danced the whole night through

Yet I’m sorry I also got awkward

When it was time to say goodbye

I just wasn’t sure what to do

About that twinkle in your eye

I talk a very good game you see

And can still flirt up a storm

But when push, inevitably, comes to shove

I’m simply unable to perform

Magic

How we were

Tonight

Wasn’t

Quite right

In fact,

We were downright

Laughable

But when

A love affair

Is in the air

I guess no one is

Entirely rational

Under Duress

So I’m
coming to
your house
today

As it
seems
I have
no choice

But to endure
three hours
of awkward
pretence

And your
fucking
awful
voice

If only
I could
just say
no

Then all
of this
would
end

Instead I’ll
turn up
with a
smile

And fake
being
your best
friend

Nonsense

When
the
wine
is in

The
wit
is
out

And
it’s a
good
job

To
be
honest

As
what
else

Would
we talk
about?
