Ideals

Heavy is

The head

That wears

The crown

Heavy is

The heart

That’s been

Disappointment

I wanted
Your hands 
To feel 
Like his 

To have one
More night
Of unbridled 
Bliss 

But as soon
As we touched 
Let alone
Kissed

I knew
From now on
It would feel 
Like this

“You Can’t Stand Me Now”

Something of a hero

In your teens

The subject of many

Young girls dreams

Yet here you are now

Bloated and aging

With that yellowing skin

And cholesterol raging

So it’s hard to see you

As you once were

When that rakish charm

Caused quite the stir

Yet it’s not really you

That I feel sorry for

It’s all those young girls

Who don’t dream anymore

Fooled Again

It may not

Have been a dream

But it certainly was

A trick

As he left her so cruelly

She knew well and truly

He was a complete

And utter dick

When Love Runs Smoothly

Is
this
really
true

She
said

Are
you
sure
this
isn’t a
dream

I
promise
with
all my
heart

He
said

Some
things
really
are
what
they
seem

Dull As Dishwater

It matters not

How I seem

Through these words

I’ve penned

For if we were to ever

Meet in person

You’d be disappointed

In the end

Telling Tales

Why don’t you
stay here
a while,
he said,
and have
a cup
of tea

But I don’t
understand,
she said,
why would
you want
to talk
to me?

You’ve got
a tale to
tell, he said,
and I’d
like to
find out
more

Well you’ll
be sad
to realise,
she said,
that I’m
nothing
but a bore

The Fair-weather Boss

I used to care

What he thought of me

That I did a good job

So my skills he’d see

But now he’s changed

And lost my respect

So I just take the wage

And disconnect

Diss Regard

What’s
the
point

In all
this
chatter

Now
I’ve
realised

You
don’t
matter

Anymore

Empty Handed

As
I lie
here

Alone
again

I can
only
assume

I
wasn’t

Bounty

I
can
only
hope

I’m
worth
the
wait

‘People disappoint.

Pizza is eternal.’

‘I’ll Be There For You…’

They
claim
that you’re
not on
your
own

But
it
certainly
feels
like
it

Over
time
they
will all
fade
away

While
you’re
still
wading
through
shit

All Along

I’ve long suspected

You were a dickhead

But now I know for sure

So because you’ve behaved

As expected

I won’t be seeing you

Any more

Where Else?

I know

It comes across

Like I am rapacious

Between the sheets

But believe me

When I say

My tongue is firmly

In my cheek

Janus

I know you better

Than I know myself

So please stop trying

To be someone else

Mis-sold The Dream

Will I
always
be like
this

She
asked

Will I
always
be so
sad?

There’s
no point
asking
me

He
said

You’re not
the only
one who’s
been had

Naivety

When
I was
younger

I
longed
to be
free

But
now I
am older

It’s not

Misanthropic Me

People
never
cease to
disgust
and
disappoint
me in
equal measure

Perhaps
that’s
why my
life is
full of
discomfort
and
displeasure
