Just some girl

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?

Liar

How is it possible for you to be so fake?

To smile and hold my hand, tuck my hair away

To look into my eyes and blatantly lie?

How can you do that?

Telling me you’ve never felt so calm and at peace

That all your worries disappear with your sleep

Now that you are back on your feet

With the pea coming in to your pockets so fresh

How can you plead for my love, plead for me

To stay and lie through your teeth?

You tell me that you know how much you have hurt me

What you have done, how you don’t deserve me

You’re right, that’s why I am leaving.

Suddenly, after two months you are dying

It’s funny how you call me beautiful

When the mortgage is due this week

Funny how you’ve been happy to

Pretend I don’t exist since June

Funny how you didn’t screw over

Less what I gave

Lucky I gave you any at all.

You’ve lost me for good, baby.

 And it’s all your fault.

Note 18

Raindrops floating on my skin

Dull, grey, lifelessness focuses within

Reducing the room for conscience

Jeopardising the freedom of my soul.

Distance ever stretching out,

Realisation and truth

You were not the silver lining

I was thinking about.

Note 17

Your fumes poison my senses

You steal my soul, fusing tenses,

Memories mingle with what could be

You open my blind eyes and make me see

I am wasting.

Caterpillar

I am

bound

to your

fate,

like

a moth

to

a flame.

 

Mind empty;

over

flowing;

sedate,

with

blame.

 

Can’t

live

with,

or

without

you.

 

White

scented

roses

fresh,

soft,

like

morning

dew.

 

Crisp,

cold,

against

the skin,

love

wrapped

up in

 

Stinging

nettles.

sharp,

spiked,

thorny

stems,

 

Antiseptic

soaked

cotton

wool

hurting

my

head.

 

Healing.

Not Even An Angel

 

Devil invites me inside

His turquoise chocolate house

Guides me by the hand

And lays me down without

A blink, he smiles sweetly

I’m afraid but I trust him

Completely

Naively

 

He smells my satsuma skin

Tucking my hair behind my ear

Holding me close against him

Encouraging me to

Whisper, still smiling

On coffee leather chairs

Smooth velvet skin

Reveals

 

Devil runs his warm hands

Down my nervous naked spine

Shiver in my bones

Conscious of being shy

But I melt away

Baring my awkward body

Defenceless

Trusting

 

He breathes me inside of him

Intuition breaks my mood

There is something

Just not quite right

Hesitate

Can’t work it out

Pre-meditated

Attack

 

Devil tries to take my mind

Off the noise that startled

Me from the other side

It’s nothing

Just you and me

You

And

Me

 

Except intuition knows

I’m facing an ordeal

Never repeated to a human soul

Words do not escape

Do not form on my tongue

To even express

Broken

butterflies

 

I see two pairs of eyes

And then bodies bolt out

Of the strawberry jam door

Through my naked tears

Falling on to my naked

Trembling skin

I scream at the devil

I runaway

 

I gather my scattered

Shattered self

I’m crying

I’m screaming

I’m cursing

Cold

Black

Murder

 

Not even an angel

Can take that once

Sweet like chocolate

Cold stone heart

Of menacing

Violating

Humiliation

Away.
