It’s always the quiet ones
You need to watch
As they’re the ones
Who never get caught
Treachery
This cannot be
What you want
Surely,
It’s a joke
For I am not
That kind of woman
And you’re not
That kind of bloke

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

ahead

In for a penny
In for a pound
Isn’t that what they say?
Well all I know is
If there are no strings
Then I’ll be there without delay
Cocktails At Dawn
Come over here
Let’s have a taste
As it would be a shame
If this went to waste

Trauma Breeds Trauma
It started off
Innocently enough
But the problem was
It worked
The desire then grew
And deep down I knew
How I’d forever quench
My thirst
‘Slash & Burn’
Skin somewhat healing
And yet I’m still reeling
As my heart slowly withers
Is there a more appealing
Way to cope with this feeling
Other than with a pair of scissors?

Through that door
Sown Up
I don’t feel better.
I haven’t forgotten.
I’ve just stopped telling you,
How I feel.

“Feeling Good As Hell”
You may think
That I’m left whimpering
But I can promise you
I am not
For I no longer need suffer
Your simpering
Which was worth
Every inch we fought
The High Road
You can just
Fuck off now
As I
Have had enough
I no longer
Give a shit
About all this
Selfish stuff
But you should know
Just one thing
And yes,
I will be blunt
Maybe I wasn’t
Always right
But you
Were always a cunt

Let alone

Sometimes I wonder
If I made it out alive
Or if I’m actually still dead
I mean I know
I put on a good show
But I’d rather just feel it instead
But Still Alive
Mired in madness
Subsumed in sadness
Buried here forever
Lost in blackness

‘Reality Bites’
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

Only The Half Of It
Reading this one back again
I feel so sorry for her
Clearly she lost more,
When he died,
Than her words could ever infer
I Can’t Bring You Back Though, Can I?
I can look at your photo
I can whisper your name
I can press your shirt
Against my face
But nothing feels the same

Coquetry
Alhough we’ve never spoken
It’s still my daily treat
To remember that emotion
As our eyes shyly meet
After All

remember
your
smile
Perhaps
leaving
the
house
today
Might
yet
prove

Move Over, Wednesday
You’re hardly the life and soul
They said
Even with a drink you’re glum
You don’t know the half of it
She said
I didn’t even want to come
Sanctuary
Never more than when
I’m in a room full of people
Do I feel most the alone
All I want to do is beat
A slow and steady retreat
And find my sanctuary at home

The Urgent Sea Of Life
There’s something about
The rush of the waves
Those echoing sounds
From beyond the caves
This feels like home
To me
That sheer expanse
Of glass like water
As I stand here shaking
In awe before her
I know when I wade in
I’ll be free
Happy Place
Take me back
To the sea
For it is where
I need to be
But don’t think because
I’ve emptied my pockets
That will be
Enough to stop it
For in the end
It will just be me
Sinking down
Into the depths of the sea

I gave away
Your boots today
To a charity shop
For next time I know
I’ll be walking alone
All along that rugged hilltop
Gone For Good
What I have lost
Can’t be replaced
For our footsteps
Can’t be retraced

I know
That depression
Is cyclical
Yet I’m still taken
By surprise
Whenever
It hits
And I feel
Like shit
As the light fades
From behind my eyes
Sprung
The beast has crept back in again
She’s beaten down my door
And there was me,
Foolishly,
Thinking I wouldn’t need pills anymore

I remember
When I heard this
Oh how I laughed
And laughed
To know that finally,
And rightfully,
You have fallen on your ass
Music To My Ears
So I’ve heard that you
Are starting to feel
Like you’re reaping
What you sowed
Well all I can say
Is poor, poor you
I hope your pain
Has overflowed
As I, for one,
Cannot express
Just how happy
I am to know
That perhaps now you
Can comprehend
How it feels
To be alone

“I’m OK By Myself”

Today
Why I prefer to travel
Alone
Because it’s easier
I said
Than listening to other people
Moan
Better Off Dead
Sometimes
I
wonder,
Is
this all
there is?
Just
boredom,
emptiness
And your
endless
bullshit?
I couldn’t
think of
anything
nicer,
Than to be
somewhere
else
instead.
Far from
all the
anxiety
and pain,
And your
words
plaguing
my head

Would get him out of my head
And though it filled a hole
That wasn’t my goal
So now it’s back to my own bed
Going Too Far
Lying
here
alone
In
this
strange
bed
Wondering
what the

Was

Now I
must
ignore
This
feeling
of dread
And
stop
wishing
that I’d
Stayed
home

He’d answer back

I lose the will to even try
So I raise my hands to the sky
And scream why me, you arsehole, why?

You really should be prepared
