"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
An allegory for so much
This one
Love, life and death
Trying to capture that feeling
When you need to stop
And pause for breath
Keep The Engine Running
Shall
we go
ahead
and jump
He
asked
Now that
we’ve
come
this far?
I’m not
so sure,
anymore,
She
said
Let’s just
get back
in the
car

The extent of your brilliance
They never could see
But you were always more
Than just a man to me
Xxx
Afterlife
You still
save me
in so
many ways
Even
from
beyond
the grave

In a way it’s easier
To still see you every day
For as we get both older
My heart grows colder
And doesn’t hurt in the same way
Taken
I can bear most things in life
But it kills me every time
To know no matter what I do
You will never again be mine
(Originally Posted 11.12.2020)
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

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

“But I don’t really care how bad it hurts
When you broke me first”
Did you always love her?
No
Did she always love you?
Yes
Did that change anything?
Absolutely
Unrequited (Part One)
Did you always love him?
Yes
Did he always love you?
No
Did that change anything?
Never

A tale of love
Unrequited,
Ever so sad
Yet I’m secretly
Delighted
To have experienced it.
Otherwise,
How would I have known?
‘You Can’t Always Get What You Want’
It’s not you
It’s not me
It’s just the way
It has to be

Even my love poems
It seems
Have a sinister tone
So it’s no wonder
That I’ve spent
So long on my own
Achilles H(eel)
Lingering
on the
ocean floor
Lurking
in the
starkness
This is
where we
both belong
Hidden
amongst
the darkness

It wasn’t our time
Nor was it the place
But I’ll never forget
Your sweet embrace
The Reference
When it is
I see
Her next
I’ll be sure
To let
Her know
How you’re
Passionate,
Funny
And kind
And how
It hurts
To let
You go

I don’t know how it’s happened
And I can’t even tell you why
But, it seems, I’ve grown old
In love with the wrong fucking guy
Set In Stone
Neither of
us knows
If the life
we chose
Will work out
for the best

Concerning affairs
Of the heart
I was once a master
But when he died
I lost my mind
And now I’m a complete disaster
Ready To Implode
It
isn’t
you
That
I don’t
trust
Honestly,
it’s
me
My
mind
is
No
longer
robust
enough
To
deal

Such

One I wished I never played
Oh what a mess we made…’
“and we didn’t love each other
but we helped each other forget
that life is shit”
– Sean Hughes
It will soon be three years
Without him here
And I know time is supposed to fly
But it feels like just yesterday
That he was my mainstay
So I’m not ready for some other guy
The Anniversary
It will
soon be
a year,
without
you here,
and I
don’t
know
what
to do.
For I’m
still
nowhere
near,
facing
my fear,
or the
reality
of losing
you.

‘So I’ve made my mind up
I must live my life alone
And though it’s not the easy way
I guess I’ve always known
I’d say goodbye to love…’
I’m not sure if this notion
Of there only ever being one person
For us to love is true
But what I can say for sure
Is even if there were a hundred more
I would only ever want you
Galaxies
If
I was
to
decide
To
leave
this
place
I’d
still
find
you
again
In
any
time or
space

“Some kill their love when they are young,
And some when they are old;
Some strangle with the hands of Lust,
Some with the hands of Gold:
The kindest use a knife, because
The dead so soon grow cold.”
– Oscar Wilde
You’ll be here all day
She said
There really isn’t much to find
Well I will never stop looking
He said
Until the end of time
Digging For Gold
Kindness
lives
within
you
He
said
Of
that
I am

Then
by all

try to
find it

She never did see it
And now you’re apart
You have been left
With wounds that smart
If only you’d listened
To my remark
You could’ve saved yourself
The broken heart
You Deserve More
I wish you
could see
yourself with a
different view
And know
there are so
many things to
love about you
My only hope
is that she
will see it
again soon too
Then perhaps
you could both
just stop
making do

I can clearly remember
Their wedding day
All of that promise
On display
It’s such a shame
It ended that way
And now love’s young dream
Has faded away
The(ir) Split
It’s
not
about
what
she
did
Or
what
he did
either
to be
fair
It’s
about
how
it has
made
me feel
As for
the
rest
I could
not
care
(Originally Posted 16.09.2020)
I’m sure that we can all recount
How we met our lovers
But some such stories
Of our former glories
Are more significant than others

That Split Second
When I saw you
sleeping there
I couldn’t help
but stop and stare
Probably because
I was drunk too
Although nowhere
near as drunk as you
(Originally Posted 15.09.2019)
Will you still love me
When I am old and grey
Will you still want me
To touch you in that way
Will you still need me
To kiss you goodbye each day
Or will you just find someone else
And simply walk away
A Risky Business
We really
shouldn’t
do this,
she said,
it isn’t
the right
time
It’s now
or never,
he said,
for I’ll
soon be
past my
prime
(Originally Posted 14.09.2019)
You’re actually quite romantic
He said
When you put your mind to it
But therein lies the problem
She said
I just can’t be arsed to persue it
When Lightning Strikes
It’s like
we’ve been
connected
forever,
he said,
but it’s only
been a minute
However long
it’s been,
she said,
I can’t
remember
life without
you in it

As I have never
Loved again
From that day
To this
I cannot help
But wonder
If someone up there
Is taking the piss
I Can’t Tell You
I can’t
tell
you
how
much
better
I feel
To
know my
feelings
I need
no
longer
conceal
I
can’t
tell you
how much
more open
I am
now
To the
possibility
of loving
someone
again,
someday,
somehow

Men may have since
Shared my bed
But they have never
Shared my head
Like you
Fuck Knows
My days
are sad
My nights
are lonely
Fuck knows
if I’ll ever
Only be
true to you

“And I wonder
When I sing along with you
If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again”
“Oh but Glasgow gave me more
Than it ever took away
And prepared me for life on the road”
It’s better to have loved and lost
Than to never have loved at all
And it’s better to hide the knives,
I find,
To protect your abdominal wall
The Dagger
At
least
I don’t
feel pain
anymore
As my
insides
spill
to the
floor
