I Should’ve Known Better

It isn’t that you lied,

It’s that I believed you.

That’s what hurts.


Support

I really
cannot
stay,
she said,
it is time
for me
to go
back

It’s the
only way,
she said,
to get
my life
on track

I will come
with you,
he said,
you needn’t
be on
your own

I’m here to
help you
through,
he said,
so you’ll
never
be alone

Resignation

What can you do

When you’ve been mistaken

When you realise your life

You have forsaken

When you can’t go back

And start again

When it’s only regret

That does now remain


Double Take

It’s only
now I
realise
I’ve
played
this all
wrong

And it
actually
should
have
been
you all
along

Time Gentlemen, Please!

And into those fires of hell

We jumped

Both of us head first

We should’ve just stopped

When the doors were locked

Rather than stay to quench our thirst


Drinking Irresponsibly

From
the
depths
of the
cold

Into
the
dancing
fires of
hell

I
just
cannot
help but
feel

That
this
will not
end
well

The Failed Ultimatum

Remember when you told me

To do this / do that

And you expected

I’d dance to your tune

Well, in reality

Your words fell flat

And to your bullshit

I’m now immune


Think Again

It’s a
mistake
to tell
me what
to do.

Even
bigger
to think
I’d listen
to you.

The Midland Hotel

I met him again

Last week in town

Just me and him

No one else around

It was quite nice

When we went to bed

I didn’t pay much mind

To his empty head

But upon waking

I knew it was a mistake

So I said my goodbyes

Saving myself the headache


Sex With The Ex

There’s a small amount of comfort

But it quickly becomes a chore

And when he tries

To converse

You remember why he’s such a bore

It Wasn’t Right

I’m glad that we

Both walked away

Before things went too far

Now I can see

It wasn’t the way

To mend our broken hearts


Immoral

This
can’t
go on

We
mustn’t
continue

As the
guilt is
seeping

Into
every
sinew

It
has to
stop

It
shouldn’t
have
started

As
we’re
making a
mockery

Of our
dearly
departed

In Beero Veritas

Who’d have thought

That we’d come to

Both half dead

And needing the loo

Perhaps we should

Have thought this through

Instead of getting drunk

And doing the do

Gut Instinct

You asked me

To run away with you

So, hesitantly, I did

And it was fun

Until you left

You fucking lying prick

The Path Of Darkness

Now you’ve led me again

Onto the path of darkness

Who knows how this will end

Last time all that was left

Was sparseness

And we couldn’t even be friends

Wavering

The
internal
debate

Rages on
without
relent

Should
I kiss
you now

‘Til my
hearts
content

Or
should I
hold off

And
think
again

For
I can’t
lose you

My
only
friend

The Back of the Wardrobe

I foolishly
made a
mistake
today

I opened
the box
I’d hidden
away

Where the
memories of
my life
are kept

Along with
all the silent
tears I’ve
wept
