Boy Toys

I have so much to offer

He said

As well as this body of mine

I don’t need anything else

She said

So just the sex is fine


Whirlpools

When
I look
deep

Into
your
eyes

I must
admit

I’m
pleasantly
surprised

As
I actually
feel

Something
down
below

Which
I thought
I’d lost

Years
ago

In Perpetuity

Just keep taking the pills

He said

And they’ll eventually quieten
the voices

I suppose I can persevere

She said

Through a lack of any
other choices


‘It’s Nice To Be A Lunatic…’

Am I over
tired

Or am I just
plain sad

Am I far
too wired

Or simply
going mad

Does it
really matter

For I think
we can deduct

That as I can’t
stop this chatter

Either way,
I’m fucked

The Candidates

Looking at the others

She said

I really think we have a shot

Then we’d better pack our jumpers

He said

As where we’re headed won’t be hot


Dante’s Board Meeting

So
who
do we
have
next

He
said

To
endure
this
pain
and
sorrow

We
don’t
really
know

She
said

Until
the
vote
tomorrow

Lorelei

I can’t seem to shake the feeling

He said

That you’re just trying to lure me in

But all I do is sing songs

She said

With wickedly flirtatious grin


Windows To The Soul

I
stare
into
your
eyes

He
said

And
wonder
what’s
buried
so deep

Songs
to
make
you
smile

She
said

With
words
to
make
you
weep

Not Everything Is For Sale

How much would it cost

He said

For everything combined

You might pay me for my body

She said

But you could never buy my mind


Money Talks

Don’t just fucking humour me

She said

Listen to what I’m saying

But my job is to indulge you

He said

Isn’t that why you’re paying?

No Oil Painting

You need to get out more

She said

Get yourself back on the market

There’s no point in either

She said

As I doubt I’d be anyone’s target


Overlooked

What do you think

It would it take

For you

To notice me

Should I wear

A skimpy dress

Paint my lips

So readily?

Well all I have

Is my words

So I guess

That counts me out

As there’s nothing at all

About them

That suggests

I’d like to hangout

Whispers

Don’t try to sweet talk me

She said

I’ve met your type before

Just come a little closer

He said

And we’ll see who’s the bore


Once Bitten

I’ve dreamt of you before

She said

And I didn’t fall for you then

Well I’m here in real life now

He said

So let me try again

Blowing My Cover

You’ve thought about a book

He said

For quite a number of years

You’ve got to find a way

He said

To let go of your fears

I feel more confident now

She said

That it is something I could do

But really what still bothers me

She said

Is which name I should use


Self Help

Why
do you
write
these
poems

He
said

If
you’re
not
going
to show
everyone?

Because
these
words
are
my life

She
said

They
are
not
for
just
anyone

Awkwardness

We don’t have to do it all

He said

We can meet up another day

I need to do it now

She said

Just to get it out of the way


The Trial

You don’t
have to
prove
anything

He said

Least
of all
to me

But I
need to
prove it
to myself

She said

Otherwise
I’ll never
be free

Unaffected

It would be really helpful

She said

If you took it down a notch

It’s not like I’m asking for approval

She said

Or for you to fucking watch


Lack Of Understanding

You can’t
keep
hurting
yourself

He
said

For
I can’t
bear to
see it

The
only
problem
is

She
said

It’s
not

Debilitating

That really does sound lovely

She said

But I can’t come out to play

Depression wins again

She said

Much to my dismay


An Illicit Kiss

I can’t
think of
anything
more
exciting

Than
sitting
under
subdued
lighting

With
your
lips
pressed
to mine

That
feeling,
divine

Now
doesn’t
that
sound
inviting?

On The Safe Side

Your question may have been rhetorical

She said

But I fear that you’ve angered fate

So you’d better take it back

She said

Before it proves to be too late


Shit Show

It
can’t
get
much
worse,
can it?

He
said

Than
the
year
that

passed

Well
you’ve

jinxed
it
now

She
said

That
you’ve
gone

bloody

Hogmanay (Part 5)

Let’s do something

She said

Different this year

I’ve had enough

Of drinking beer

I don’t mind

He said

Whatever we do

As long as it involves

Me and you


Hogmanay (Part 3)

Time

Creeping

Mine

Sweeping

Dicks

Sleeping

Women

Weeping


Hogmanay 2020 (Part 2)

Staring into a new year

Together

Holding hands

I can’t believe

Out of everyone

It’s you who understands


Hogmanay 2020 (Part 1)

I’ll give you one day

Where the sun will shine

And that day is Friday

This week

But after that

It’ll all fall flat

And it’s back

To the future that’s bleak

The Kindest Thing To Do

It’s not that I don’t want to

He said

But we have been here before

I can’t give you what you need

She said

So I won’t ask you any more


It’s Not Real

I think
I love

But
I cannot

If you

You

The Ballad Of Boxing Day

He said

Have the bells rung out?

As I cannot eat

Another sprout

Oh shut your face

She said

All you’ve done is moan

You’ll be spending next year

On your own

It’s Not Wonderful For Everyone

This is my favorite time of year

He said

With these scents of cinnamon and pine

As I endure the merriment of others

She said

I thank fuck for cheese and wine

The Final Appointment

I don’t need this, any more

I’m doing a lot better

She said

Now I just hear screaming

Once or twice a week

And only inside my head


The Circus Is Back In Town

I wish
I spent
more time
sleeping

Instead
of all
this
weeping

It would
be nice to
do some
dreaming

As
opposed
to all this
screaming

Wasting Time

If only I was sure

He thought

That she feels the same way

I just wish he’d ask

She said

To her friend, later, that day


Admissions

Looking

Looking

When will
we tire

Of this
malarkey

It’ll Need Stitches

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

Why do you still deny yourself

He said

You more than deserve some happiness

It’s like I’ll never be free

She said

From the memory of all the nastiness


Forbidden Love

Come
a little
closer,

He
said,

I want
to see
your

Just
you

away,

She

I daren’t

With romantic ideals

I need a man

With balls of steel


The Rescuer

We can

I promise

When

But please know I tried my best

It’s no problem to me at all

As you’d already failed the test


High Maintenance

I’m not looking for just anyone

For not just anyone will do

It’ll take someone superhuman

To survive what I’ll put them through

Accepting What I Cannot Change

If you’re talking about my arms

Then the urge I could try to park

But if you mean my wit

She said

That’ll always be razor sharp


Spitting Distance

We

it
all

But

You’d need at least a fucking blowtorch

Little Miss Pitiful

Too busy to stop,

Too bored to stay.

Too broken to fight,

For yet another day.

As
that

Telling Tales

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

But
I don’t

she said,
why would
you want

You’ve
got a tale
to tell,

Well

Do you have to be so fucking dramatic

One day you will feel the same

When you experience something as tragic

It’s been so quiet

All I hear

As I lie here alone

And wait for death

To force your hand

I didn’t want to lose face

She said

Or wear my heart

On my sleeve

We just wish

They said

You’d told us the truth

Instead of making us believe

That you wanted to be with us

They said

When all that time

We were being decieved


Concequences

You said
you wanted

And I
didn’t ask
you to stay

So now
we lie to

And that’s

You’d still have lived a life of woe


‘Should I Stay Or Should I Go’

If

I’d pack
