Siren Song
There's a dark eyed girl on her way
She's going to steal your soul
Before the sun's on the rise
Better get back home if you know what's best
Her voice is the siren song
And she's got your ear
Got your a- ten-tion
She's going to pull your life onto the rocky shoals
She's going to leave you lost and broken
Her charms are more than you can bear
She'll chew you up and spit you out
She'll tear you down
She just don't care
There's a dark eyed girl rolling into town
And she's got mayhem on her mind
She doesn't care about...
She's going to steal your soul
Before the sun's on the rise
Better get back home if you know what's best
Her voice is the siren song
And she's got your ear
Got your a- ten-tion
She's going to pull your life onto the rocky shoals
She's going to leave you lost and broken
Her charms are more than you can bear
She'll chew you up and spit you out
She'll tear you down
She just don't care
There's a dark eyed girl rolling into town
And she's got mayhem on her mind
She doesn't care about...

The Brunt
Funny, how I am always to blame
for an unexpected disturbance
- a ripple in the routine
Whatever it might be
you come at me
and every single time
it sinks me
I've reasoned that whatever I do
or have done,
you will find a way
to punish me
You haven't been in my life
in many years,
but you still expect something from me
you are the chaos that robs the calm
If we didn't have a child,
I'd be long gone
but here I am
trapped in this limbo
having to endure
an attack almost...

Distorted Love
I'll only fuck you if you become my slut
we'll get married if you get knocked up
if not, I see your friends
and they’re nasty freaks
high school sweethearts
never meant a thing to me
get you lushed to gain your trust
but please shut up
because I don’t want to hear it
just want that body, be young and party
don’t want to stay, don’t need to care
I don’t need this thing called love
don’t want to fight, just want to fuck
and forget about love, distorted love
laying balls deep in that butt
like...

Broken
I was more innocent than I ever knew,
Dreaming of picket fences, a life steady and true.
You were supposed to be my anchor, my safe place,
But the tides of life have washed away that space.
Growing up in chaos, I fought just to survive,
Learning to love, yet always deceived.
You seemed so stable, with your family intact;
I longed to be like that, but you turned your back.
Your loud rants, dreadful words, and hurtful hands
Ripped apart the glue that barely held my strands.
I didn’t know how to love, completely broken,...

Secrets - The Pub Evening
When he goes to the bar, I ring Mel. Her line's busy.
'Hey,' Gordon says when he comes back with the drinks. 'Get this down you.'
The din in the next room gets louder. Music blares from the jukebox. A group of girls in their early or mid-twenties stream into the room where we are sitting, with bottles of wine. They call out hello, then make their way back out to the main area of the pub, giggling among themselves. One of the girls turns round and blows a kiss at Gordon.
Gordon starts to say something, but I'm no longer listening, just...

some days I get so sad I can't function
You tell me to get outside
and make myself feel better
I respond by slamming a door
in your face
I can hear laughter
through the cracked open window
and I wish I could touch it
like it's something tangible
I can inhale
but it's not
and so I listen to it drift away
on the breeze
unlike this mood I can't shake
from my leaden bones
I want to tell you I'm trying
that I'm fighting for better than this
but it's not a war you can see with your eyes
and there's no blood splatter

emotional claustrophobia
Take our problems
and condense them
until we're falling over each other
so hard
I want to punch you
in the face
Some days your love
is like building a shelter
out of wet paper bags
in the middle of a hurricane
it doesn't do much
and it hurts me more
than it helps
You yell into the abyss
of my solitude
and I can't hear what you're saying
for all the echoes bouncing
off my dysfunctions
maybe there's something
in there worth listening to
I wouldn't know
because I...

Secrets - The Pub Evening (1)
After supper, I make the journey to Gordon's, reaching Burrington at around eight thirty. I park by an apartment block opposite the town's main car park, near the river. Gordon lives in a first floor studio flat, he told me yesterday on the phone. I press the buzzer.
'Hey, Al,' he says, grinning back at me when he appears in the ground floor lobby, more padded out than the last time we met. His hair's shorter and the blue t-shirt he has on shows off loads of muscle, more than before. His eyes are smiling too. I get the feeling he's dying to throw a punch at me just...

her favorite weapon
she chose
her
favorite
weapon
to use
against me,
her silence,
something
that is
effective,
and
as i heard
nothing,
i gave in
again.

it's not my fault you're flammable
He says he loves me
like I'm awe inspiring
and some days the way
he looks at me
makes me want to punch myself
because I don't know how to accept
that level of adoration
and I'm sure I don't deserve it
I'm the instigator of all fights
I have a fire inside me that
once it's done burning me
it will light up anyone
unlucky enough to stand too close
maybe that's what it means
to be unlucky in love
not to be without love
but to love something that burns
Some days I wonder

The Gravity of Doubt
What thought for life
torments me enough
to keep from flinging
this dismal soul—
gift-wrapped in flesh—
from these towered heights?
The days were swift
and gone.
Fear grips
this would-be stone,
preventing the fall
that the will now fights.
“Blessed is the Lord,”
my heart defends,
what my mind has opposed,
hammering this hesitant,
restless soul with
heavy,
leaden
blows.
