Be it sweet
Or be it sour
You’d be on your knees
Within the hour
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Be it sweet
Or be it sour
You’d be on your knees
Within the hour
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
At the end
Of the platform
They huddle
Snapping a photo, or two
They enjoy
A wee kiss
And a cuddle
Before the next train passes through
From the corner
Of my eye
I see you
Sitting there
Her head resting
On your thigh
Your fingers
Stroking her hair
I remember those days
My head touching his
When my heart
Would do nothing but flip
Yet all I feel now
Seeing such bliss
Is the overwhelming urge
To be sick
Highlands or Islands
Anywhere will do
I’d happily live
In outer space
As long as it’s
With you
I will do
All I can
Every day
To make you smile
For seeing you happy
However sappy
Just makes everything
Worthwhile
I saw you just
Sitting there
All alone
And looking scared
So I thought
I’d offer
A kind word or two
In the hope
You might stop
Feeling so blue
A Forgone Conclusion
It’s
very
nice of
you to
be kind
But
please,
don’t
pay me
any mind
For
I am
now
a cause
that’s
lost
As
onto
the
pyre my
heart’s
been
tossed

How funny it was to read this
It’s almost prophetic in a way
As I hadn’t actually bumped into her
When I wrote this back in the day
This was actually what I hoped I’d do
If such a meeting ever arose
How I wouldn’t even acknowledge her
If we were to be up close
I had no real way of knowing
If I was capable of such a thing
As I might’ve just ran and hid
From the sight of her shit eating grin
But as it is I needn’t have worried
As I saw her just last week
In the most utterly random encounter
That you could ever wish seek
And I did, indeed, just saunter by
Leaving her mealy mouth struck dumb
Whereas I walked away both victorious
And comfortably numb
Getting Better At Caring Less
I walked
past you
today
And didn’t
even turn
my head
I just
quietly
sauntered
by
And felt
nothing
for you
instead

Alhough we’ve never spoken
It’s still my daily treat
To remember that emotion
As our eyes shyly meet
After All
You
were
here
last
time
I
clearly
remember
your
smile
Perhaps
leaving
the
house
today
Might
yet
prove
to be
worthwhile

If we are out
In the dead of night
And by chance
Our eyes should meet
What happens next
Will not be short
And it certainly
Won’t be sweet
I think I could learn to trust you
She said
I’m beginning to find the way
Well, I really cannot tell you
He said
How much that makes my day
I walked past your house
Every day
But never knocked the door
—–
I watched as you passed
Every day
And always hoped for more
Life without you recently
Certainly has been gloomy
Even if my heart is now
That little bit more roomy
Run around
Jump up and down
There’s a new love in town!
He’s really neat
And ever so sweet
This black heart skips a beat
I think that now
I’m ready for more
I want him to whisk me
Across the dancefloor
You
and
meSitting
in a
treeK-I-S-S-I-N-
No thanks
Read
to me
some
more
She
said
I
swoon
to the
sound
of your
voice
Tell
me
what
you
want
to
hear
He
said
You
know
it’s
always
your
choice
I
do not
trust
myself
When
I see
your
face
I
just
want
to kiss
you
And
never
leave
your
embrace
Dance,
you
fools,
dance
away
from
me
I’ve
seen
all
the
romance
I need
to
see
I
know
only
too
well
how
this
shit
ends
Give
it a
year
and
you
won’t
even be
friends
If
only
I
could
make
you
see
That
it is
you
who
keeps
the
key
Oh
how
much
fun
it
could
be
Finding
ways
to
make
us
both
happy
Is
this
really
true
She
asked
Are
you
sure
this
isn’t
a dream?
I
promise
you
with
all my
heart
He
said
Some
things
really
are
what
they
seem
We
should
do this
more
often
She
said
You
really
are so
sweet
I
love
it when
you
soften
He
said
It
makes
me feel
complete
