Yet your watery eyes, trembling lips,
And your voice mirror what’s deep inside.
Why are you shaking?
I:
Promised myself I wouldn’t fall for you,
So how stupid am I, now that we’re here?
My tears fall because I can’t be her.
Can only be me, and I am unsure, I don’t know
If, me by myself, if I’m enough for you.
A lesser love is not fair by the rules.
You:
Erased memories, as though they never existed,
Five years wiped clean, you replace everything
With your smile on my hand.
Sing me lyrics, in black and white,
Translating, transforming love into life
You hide behind your mask.
Advice:
You will never let go, emotionally
If you keep her secretly in your heart’s mind,
Reminiscing – but it just wasn’t fated honey.
Love based on a lie, is not to die for.
Even if it made you so happy for a sweet while.
She lied to you, though you remain friends.
Control techniques, defence mechanisms,
Keeping your fragile heart under wraps,
But your open arms are inviting me in.
Torturing yourself for her mistakes,
But who am I to care?
Just some girl, right?

Take my hand,
Take my mind,
Lead you somewhere,
Follow me blind.
Take my heart,
Take my soul,
Help you forget,
And be in control.
Take my words,
Take my voice,
Think of nothing,
You always have choice.
Let go of your heart,
Release what you feel,
As long as what you feel,
Is truly real.
Will you stay in my eyes?
Remain in my life?
Will your arms, protect
Me from the world?
Will my love, save you
From the cold?
Will you ever be restless,
And want to be gone?
Only you have the answers
Because I have none.
Looking at me how you do,
I just want to take away your pain.
I won’t break your heart,
Time and again.
Always, as long as you will
Have me I want to stay,
So smile your beautiful smile,
And have an amazing rest of your birthday.

Friendships aren’t made,
They are destined,
Two people intertwined.
If the friendship is deep,
It turns into love
And a life partner
You will find.
When I first met you
I thought the S in your heart
On your arm would
One day be for me.
Intrigued by the crescent
And the moon in your blood
On your hand, wondering
One day, will it be for me.
Here you are now,
Smiling away in my
Embrace, kissing
My neck, my lips, my face.
It’s funny how things
Work out.

Flew down the motorway
Eight o’clock at night
Just to spend fifteen
Minutes with you
Because it felt right.
Missed you that much
Spent so many hours
On the phone
Longing just to touch you
In moments alone.
I fell for you so hard
I do not even know how
You clenched my heart
And stole my smile
But I’m moving on now.

Now she knows
You’re married
And still she stays,
What a joke.
I pity your wife
And girlfriend,
Sealed behind
A screen of
smoke.
Spending ‘p’
X amount of grands
A day.
Chauffeuring
Bentleys,
As if I don’t know,
I’m not begging
You to
Stay.
I’m breaking
Free from you
I’ve heard, I know
Your lies,
Twisted words,
I’m stronger
than you
And your
Life.
Stupidity,
Blindness,
Has reigned
Too long.
Five years
Too soon,
Too late.
Love turned
To hate.

You tell the truth
If it breaks my heart,
Watching me curl away
And die.
You tell the truth
So I know your world.
You tell the truth
So no-one else
Can hurt me, because
I’ve already heard.
You tell the truth
But you are in disguise.
You tell the truth,
Hiding your love
Behind those stars
In your eyes.
You tell the truth
Disappearing for
Days on end.
You tell the truth
Your hand
In my hand.
You tell the truth
Bringing me life
Past midnight.
You tell the truth
I love the sound
Of your voice.
You tell the truth
I am so in love
Wth you.
You tell the truth,
Even when
You lie.

You breathe all too suddenly,
Playing under covers.
Smiling.
Dead letter day, ten days too late
She will return to you,
Lost in fate.
Distorted innocence, waiting
For the misconception,
Of perfection.
You are missing in the rain
Bear with me, words
In the wind.

You’re hurting me because it burns you that I went to see him
But what choice did I have when he threatens my life
I asked for your help and you did not respond
What could I do when I didn’t want a public scene
My life is not the business of eyes watching from the mezzanine
And now you are unimpressed (understatement) but what could I do
You of all people should understand how he can be
How he can get
You are witness to the tears and anger and violence
Should his temper blind his body and bind his soul
To a fiery anger of high blood pressure and lack of control
What did you want me to do?
I told him I was scared, I told him it was done
I told him not to touch me, and that it should never have begun
He wouldn’t listen, he’s too strong for my strength
I’m better to just play along.
I still care and love him but where will it take me in the end?
I want to be with you and I want you to be more than my friend
I’m in love with you but I need to get away
How can here the both of us stay?
Too many rumours and falsities how do I know wrong from right
Truth from lies?
You are my saviour but you hide your heart from me
Asking me to figure it out by myself
I have no patience, I am paranoid, I have no trust
You need to spell it out, if needs must
I can never be yours if you don’t fight for your heart
It should always have been you, right from the start.

You hurt me with
Your stony silence,
Fertile imagination
Creates stories
From nothing.
Escape me this world
Else I may lose my mind
Shaking from the cold
Inside.
Wait me this boy
Impatience grows
Cruel, sullen, slow
Hesitation creeps
Outside.
Swing both ways,
Living proof of a livid
Angel in disguise.

Empathy,
Compassion,
Understanding,
Sighing blind.
Too many tears
Less too many smiles.
You scare me,
Don’t touch me.
But you’re a temptation,
Difficult to resist,
But in an instant
You have me.
Again.
You are me,
And you are not me.
I love you,
And I don’t.
I am with you
But not.
Contradiction
Paradox
Mayhem
Chaotic sublime.
You will never
Be just mine.
