I COULD
I could stay awake to see
Your sleepy eyes twitching,
You breathing next to me.
I could waste my day,
Talking to your heart ache,
Begging for you to stay.
But I am so un-noticeable
You'll walk right through me,
You the prince, I the fool.
I could be in your arms
Forever and a day,
No care for worries or alarms.
I could kiss your cheek
I'd thank God that i'm with you
Nothing is ever now bleak.
But you are loving her,
And that's the end of it
Compared, to you I am just dirt.
So I could, but I won't
But I still have my dreams,
I'll stay and dream here alone.
COME HERE
Come here,
Put your hands
On the scar
You left.
Come here,
Blow the strands
Of hair away
From my face.
Come here,
Say your crap,
Justify leaving,
And leave again.
Come here,
Kiss the sap
Who believed
You loved her
HOW MUCH IS MY HEART WORTH?
O sell my heart away,
How many numbers will
You take, for my soul.
Those numbers playing on
The page, those facts you
Speak, entwine my mind.
Your lips move i watch from
Across the room, i ask you
Questions and you answer
You look me in the eye and
Tell me how to get through.
Ashamed for thinking love I
May turn away, but my eyes
Will always be drawn back.
Times i like these i wonder
When i sit at home alone,
Staring at the walls.
Do you think of me at all
DO you recount those
Moments spent together, or
Do you never consider how
I feel, or what i think of you.
SO take these feelings away,
Use your figures, numbers
To decifer how much my
Heart is worth, to you,
To anyone.
GOODBYE
Lying here by you,
Gives me the most content feeling
I cant not explain the reason,
Everything shines when you are here.
Nights go past,
I'm left cold and alone again
But all i can imagine
Is you holding another in your arms.
We said goodbye
I ruined the friendship we had
I wanted you all but i
Couldn't match up to your last love.
Now we're alone
I said it didn't matter you turned me
Down, i'm spinning now,
But my eyes always rest back on you.
I see your friend,
She's pretty, and hideous - sweet as sugar,
She smiles innocently at me,
Does she know i'm in love at all?
The music you play hanging in the air -
Strips me of feeling and leaves me bare.
TAKEN AWAY
Its clear by now -
I've lost my way,
The nights are cold
The sun is grey.
I'll kiss you now -
Only in my dreams
I'll think of you
More than it seems.
I'll sit alone -
Under the storm
My tears will run
For my love lorn.
They'll take you now -
The walls will fall
My heart will break
The bell will toll.
FREE SPEECH
Free speech is bull, hard, rotten
Smelling worse than feet strung next
To cheese.
Free speech is blood stains
Washed from silk, leaving white
To cream.
Free speech is a knife, stabbed
Deep in the back of the children
Who see.
Free speech is the tool of democracy
ENGLAND
So long my friends
Goodbye my love
Save a sweet kiss for me,
If you have enough
Ta-ta my parents
I'm not there anymore
Say goodbye to my brothers
I'm out of that door.
To my two special cats
Please be happy forever
Say goodbye to England
And its bleak cold war weather.
So long to a heritage
Goodbye to those truths
Cos this isn't England
It's a long mis-spent youth.
MY SINS
Pain, like the black veil pulling emptyness over the stars.
Pain, that tears away the shreds of pride i came to save -
To hide away from the sins i created on my love's sweet life.
To save this wretched soul from all God's damnations upon me.
To laugh in the face of them all, and spit at their feet, where they walk.
I came to gather what's mine, all mine and all i want.
The things i desire, deserve and need beside my legs cold.
Until my heart swells and bursts from the richness you hath fed me
Until the time ifall from the sky and sleep without care to wake,
To work, to toil amongst the fields now bare from trampling.
You trampled, you ripped out what i had sewn, you stood
Upon the foundations i had lain and with your three headed dog
Of hell, you ruined everything i had planned with your might, I
Wish to have it. Such might that tames all beasts as I.
Come quickly now i dare not hide no longer, my lips are yours
And my heart is sworn asunder - I'll love thee for ever more!
But although you tell me that these sins are fleeting, I know
Deep in me, this pain will stay with me forever, and for ever more.
TO MY UN-NAMED SIR.
You probably can't remember my smile
Or the colour of my hair
And if you knew my name
You'd probably forget, its easy to forget.
If it were easy for me i would,
I would give in, in an instance
To the slumber of ignorance
I would renounce the chains my heart
Has flung from my eyes and soul
To yours.
Because these chains will only pull
Whilst you kiss the sweet lips of
The girl in your arms
They'll pull, they'll taunt and i'll yearn.
I can't forget dear sir -
The imprint of your eyes
The deep brown of your hair
The pounding of my heart when
I know you're near.
And if i could put a name to your
Handsome face,
I would press it on my chest
And hope the letters reached
My chained heart
So that i could never forget that,
That, that that names my one desire
That, that has linked my heart to its
With a simple gaze, upon its lips.
OUR KISS
Where is happiness if you are not here with me?
How can the moon rise and glow in beauty
If it does not have the sun all day to draw its beauty from?
How can the petals blossom on a lily
If it does not have the rain in its day?
Where is the smile in my heart whatever I do,
If I have not had the symphony,
The minature euphoric explosions
If I have not seen your smile.
Once to spark my heart, twice to draw me in.
But as many smiles you could imagine to have
I would never get tired.
I would never lose a tear in boredom
From seeing your smile. Or
Just your face.
Ive spent so much time imagining our kiss
Our moment of warmth, pure closeness.
When I couldnt sleep Id let my mind slump
Into the dream.
You dont know and never will, I suppose
How long Ive spent.
Wishing that kiss would happen to me.
How long Ive dreamt! How Ive needed to weep!
Weep for what? Weep for the love I never had
Weep for my useless nature? Weep for my weakness?
I dream too much of a kiss that will never be
Of a kiss you share everyday with the one you love.
You dont know I love you.
You dont know I need you.
I love you so.
Where is my happiness still. |
