Thinking of her
Sitting here thinking about you
Its a thing to do
Shes become imprinted on me
We could never be
Theres a lifetime that separates us
Nothing to discuss
But the heart wants what it wants
Still theres no response
I feel happiness again when we talk
I Watch the clock
Minutes turn to hours waiting for the ringtone
Put down the phone
Youre not for her and she could never be yours
On opposite shores
Your darkness would blot out her light
Shes day, you're night
...

Always A Rose Tinted Veiw
when looking
in ocean blue eyes
want to drink thirstly waters
beyond my fill
yearning
like a lost puppy
inside doing actobatics
feeling akwardly
teenage again
where i am
totally ongue tied
sleep evades
as thoughts swirl
you bring
colourful visions
inspiring the artist's pallette
capturing summer's
vibrancy on canvas
beautiful flower
blooming petals
opening towards sunlight
white amonst red fields
beauty never tires

The heart of love
The heart of love
Can you not see? How I yearn for you.
My heart leaps into my mouth when you walk by,
the fires of passion burn under my skin,
The color drains from my face,
My heart beats so fast I feel I will explode.
Of course, you cannot see,
For I am silent, not daring to speak,
For fear of rejection, of ridicule.
I am unnoticed by you,
I meld with the background imagery,
Not really here.
How can they find it so easy?
These other men flirt and tease you,
And you, you flirt and tease back!
But...

An unwinnable game
Im in love with someone who doesn't feel the same
I wish that it would go as quickly as it came
I dont want to play this unwinnable game
Why the fuck did love put me in its aim
I felt happy and alive and now its just an ache
Was cutting off from her the right move to make
Was having her close something i could take
Either way i still feel a heartbreak
I miss her intensely she stays on my mind
And i know that its something that will take some time
I want time with her but its not fates design
Id learn how to love right, for...

Something we never were
I want her so bad that its causing me pain
So i walk away but the feelings remain
My life feels like there is only the rain
Her blue skies is what I'm trying to gain
But i have nothing to offer except scars and trauma
I know when she thinks of me all she sees is the drama
Shes everything that I've been looking for
Shes made me want to open every closed door
Shes trying to be a good friend but I'm wanting more
Cuz i feel like my heart she can restore
I want to know how it feels to have her im my arms
To be fully in...

Its Only Words
its only words
say it and let it out
it wont carve into stones
lamentations of love unrequited
don't speak out your thoughts
don't bother to say sorry
your vows had been snapped
cut by both of you
your new love
the one that sprang
from old wishing well
in your almost dry feelings
to you she is a fresh bloom
sprouting from the soil
of your turbulent emotion
deep down in your soul
hold on to love
embrace it close
its your lifeline
just remember Words
spoken,...

Nobody Cares, Love
just be where you are
nothing is waiting for you
in any other places, anyway
anything you have is from what you do
no one will play your mirror
no conscience voice at the corridor
telling you right from wrong
its all just you, everything
don't believe anybody is interested
in the affairs of your heart
no one cares if you laughed or cry
or if you've been hung out to dry
they laugh and joke
oh look at the old slowpoke
crying for a love in his winter
'death beckons, ready to wither'
so stay...

and finally, hope
I hope life blesses you
with a goodnight
kiss
I hope that the dreams
of moonlight fall upon
you like silver
snowflakes
I hope that your sadness
is covered by a thousand
red cut out paper
hearts
I hope that a child sees
through your eyes
and the devil
walk away
defeated
I hope the summer
rain cleanses your
grief and you can
finally grow
roses
with a goodnight
kiss
I hope that the dreams
of moonlight fall upon
you like silver
snowflakes
I hope that your sadness
is covered by a thousand
red cut out paper
hearts
I hope that a child sees
through your eyes
and the devil
walk away
defeated
I hope the summer
rain cleanses your
grief and you can
finally grow
roses

Borrowed Heart
Something borrowed
Something blue
Had I only known
I’d borrowed you
We met at a wedding
A family affair
You were the best man
I did the brides hair
I caught your attention
You smiled at me
We locked eyes a moment
Underneath the oak tree
The vows were exchanged
The whole time you stared
My heart began racing
The wind in my hair
We met at the bar
You just said “hello”
Your voice unexpected
You spoke very low
You seemed then so timid
And a little bit bold ...

Accused
I accuse you
Of being a beautiful design
In my heart there’s a revival
An awakening to the reality of you
I’m ignited I’m excited
I see you as divine
But maybe there’s something underneath
That attracts me more
It’s the danger of the unknown
Of finding the secret you
You can’t be that fragile
Cause you have a body built to sin
Would you sin with me
Our fires could meet
In perfect harmony
No one time thing
I want more than you can give
What’s the use of an ordinary love ...

Wishes
it's your flame
that fire
that compels me
such strength beauty
a wild rose
both soft and thorny
from a far
I more than admire
god i wish
wish
just wish
you could imagine us
more than friends
I might never touch
from where I am
but distance in my dreams
is like a text
instant
i am where you are
invading dreams
to have those
warm naked cuddles
that fire
that compels me
such strength beauty
a wild rose
both soft and thorny
from a far
I more than admire
god i wish

you could imagine us
more than friends

from where I am

In his arms
It should make me happy
He makes her feel warm
Happy to know
she is safe in his arms
and the sight of her laugh
fills him with glee
happier than ever is not happy for me
her happy ever after is not happy for me
those foolish butterflies
that I recognise
look so much better
in her pretty eyes
as if I could come close
to all that they will be
she keeps that happiness far away from me
her happy ever after is not happy for me
I am a monster
with all the time I spend
secretly hating
her...
