Happiness, Impeded

I thought

I would

Be better

If I could just

Forget

About you

But it’s proving

Too hard

With a heart

This scarred

To move on

With anyone new

Bloody Hellfire

It was only

When my fingers

Were well

And truly burnt

That I realised

We were good together

Until we really

Fucking weren’t

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

Fingers Crossed

It’s good to see

You’re moving on

It’s just a shame

That it’s with her

I wish you well

Although time will tell

If you will get

What you deserve

Thanks A Lot, Walt

For all your experience

He said

You’re still so fucking naive

I grew up watching fairy tales

She said

So that’s what I was led to believe

Lunch Dates

I knew it wouldn’t work

But I said yes anyway

I just needed to prove

That one afternoon

Couldn’t chase

My demons away

For Real This Time

It was really nice

To see you today

Now time has seen

Most memories away

Yet when I said

Goodbye, my friend

Both of us knew

This is the end

The Odd Text Here And There

In another place

And another time

I’d be yours

And you’d be mine

But as we’re here

And the time is now

Seems we both

Have to settle

For just chatting,

Somehow

Reassurance

All it really needed

Was for you to take my hand

To whisper to me, sweetly

And to say you understand

Bearing A Torch

As I run down
This darkened road
My heart beats fast
Ready to explode
Just thinking
Of what lies ahead

Little do I know
As I follow the flame
It’ll turn out to be
Such a shame
As you’ve walked
The other way, instead

Limerence

Of all the men

It has been

There’s no one

That compares to

Yet of all the men

It will be

I must accept

It’ll never be you

Respite

I thought of us

Again today

And, as always,

You made me smile

It was a welcome break

From all the heartache

Even if only

For a while

Soft As Shit

Happy Valentine’s Day

He said

Here’s a teddy

And some flowers

I’d rather go without

She said

Than have to sit with you

For hours

The Lies We Tell

Come on over

We’ll watch TV

I don’t expect

You to sleep with me

We’ll have pizza

And a drink or two

Then after that

It’s up to you

A Temporary Salve

It all

Felt better

For a while

You made

Me laugh

You made

Me smile

But now

It’s over

And

You’re gone

So again,

I’m left

All alone

One Step At A Time

I don’t think I can do it

She said

I’m just too fucking scared

It’s the only way I can see

He said

For your heart to be repaired

The Blind Date

Only halfway

Through your story

And you’re already

Beginning to bore me

Sometime later

When your story ends

I know for sure

We’ll just be friends

Butterflies

I can’t wait

To see you next

And hear you

Say my name

To feel

Your touch

To say

Too much

And to fall in love

Again

Besotted

For getting me

To agree

You always seemed

To have the knack

But I’ve been moving on

All summer long

And now I know

I’ll never look back

“How Can You Mend A Broken Heart?”

I just thought

I’d call

He said

To check

That you’re ok

You are

So very kind

She said

To care for me

That way 

I’ll also ask

While I’m on

He said

If there’s anything

I can do?

I’m sure

I’ll be fine

She said

To me this

Is nothing new

The Holiday Romance

You’d better

Get them off

She said

Come on now

Don’t be shy

It won’t be long

Until the end of the song

And we’ll both

Be saying goodbye
