This Song (It's for You)
You showed up in a dream last night
and you were not ok
You never said a word,
but tears were rolling down your face
I didn’t ask you questions,
just held you while you cried
And when I woke, the rain
was pouring down outside
I know that I can’t call you,
How random that would seem
We’re really not that kind of friends,
We only talk in memes.
I’m not the one you’d turn to
if things were going wrong,
But you’re the one who crashed my dream,
so I’m writing you this song.
...
and you were not ok
You never said a word,
but tears were rolling down your face
I didn’t ask you questions,
just held you while you cried
And when I woke, the rain
was pouring down outside
I know that I can’t call you,
How random that would seem
We’re really not that kind of friends,
We only talk in memes.
I’m not the one you’d turn to
if things were going wrong,
But you’re the one who crashed my dream,
so I’m writing you this song.

TO YOU MY GIRLFRIEND part III
I stand before you, heart in hand
Manifesting for this love i fail to understand
I will give you every moment, every breath I own,
Squeeze whats darker, for whats sweet is the juice
If giving up is a cost, i will pay my dues
I’ll stand firm as i say "i choose not to lose"
You put my chaotic ancestors to rest Mzanga
It's the weight of your gaze that holds me upright,
Without you I am bare, my soul is exposed
Tell me you see not just my smile but the reason behind too,
Tell me you see not just the beauty but also what is within, ...

Secrets - The Drive Home
It's still early. We could go to see a film. What do you think?'
'I want to go home.'
'And you're sure about that?'
No answer.
'Okay, but say if you change your mind,' I say. I get into the car. 'We can go anywhere or do anything you like.' I reach over to help fasten his seatbelt, but he tenses, so I back off.
Poor kid. He must be hurting so much. Robert acts as if his mother never existed, refusing to talk about her at all. I don't blame him, really, although the extreme reaction concerns me. Like what do we do about...

come closer
come closer,
let me
hold you,
your
trembling
body feels
a need
i hope
i can
provide,
and you
being here
replaces
too much
that i
have been
missing.

I'll Get My Chance, But For Now...
Your exhibitionism draws me
to want to know those deeper secrets
the ones that thrill
in quiet moments
that few know about
And I want to do nothing more than encourage you
to spill those treasures
my own heat
inspired by those daring entanglements
perhaps living vicariously
through your pleasures
because maybe I'm just too afraid
to push over that edge
and allow myself to explore
my own interest
because all I've ever known
is that haphazard interest
feeling like a passable option
until another...

Bruise
My bruise hurts
I recall you yesterday
Seeing my bruise
I grasp you are the owner
Touching my bruise
I feel you were definitely here
Orchids gets water
A phone call
As through you could see me all the time
Today you crush my body too
I recall you yesterday
Seeing my bruise
I grasp you are the owner
Touching my bruise
I feel you were definitely here
Orchids gets water

Secrets - Robert, Aloof
Lunch with Mel. Read of the newspapers.
Quarter to three. I set off to collect Robert from school. The other kids have gone. Robert's standing by the whiteboard with his teacher Miss Lyons, who greets me with a warm smile.
'We had a good day, didn't we Robert?' she says.
The boy nods and clutches his bag.
Miss Lyons tosses back her light brown hair and gets ready to leave. She's in her mid-twenties, pretty, with an open face and green eyes. 'I'm very confident about Robert,' she says. 'He's made a very promising start. I'm convinced...

Unconditional love
"Why do you love me?"
He asked with eyes full of tears
"I don't deserve you"
He said as a tear started to run down his face
"I put you through so much shit,
and you still stay. Why?"
I tried to hold back tears
as his words hurt my heart
I gently explained
"There is this beautiful thing
called unconditional love" I said
A smile lit up his face
I still feel like he doesn't understand
Nothing he could could do
could make me lose my love for this man
Losing him would be worse...

Crazy in love
People tell me I'm crazy
because I won't give you up
They wonder why nothing you do is bad enough
Bad enough for me to run
Bad enough for me to be done
I'll admit I'm crazy
Crazy in love
My love for you out weighs
all the bad you've done
They ask why I don't hate you
The truth is I can't
I can't explain the happiness I feel
when you hold my hand
I've tried to give you up
I've tried to say it's the end
But I always end up running back to you again
When I try to give you up
my heart screams in pain ...
because I won't give you up
They wonder why nothing you do is bad enough
Bad enough for me to run
Bad enough for me to be done
I'll admit I'm crazy
Crazy in love
My love for you out weighs
all the bad you've done
They ask why I don't hate you
The truth is I can't
I can't explain the happiness I feel
when you hold my hand
I've tried to give you up
I've tried to say it's the end
But I always end up running back to you again
When I try to give you up
my heart screams in pain ...

decision fatigue
Decision fatigue:
it feels like a permanent brain freeze after trying
to inhale too much icecream. Decision making literally hurts, particularly anything open ended.
Small decisions are exhausting but doable.
Hard decisions are panic attack inducing.
The small every day things that everyone else
does feel like looking up at Mt Everest.
Add in depression and anxiety and you've got a
recipe for chaos.
I swore at you in the hardware store
after you tried to bully me into making
a decision I didn't need to...

The Narcissist
Close to midnight
And we've drunk too much again
I just wanna leave you
I just wanna leave you
I just want to leave you
Needing me, alone
Finger in the ashes
It smudges out like earthy silk
I just wanna go
I just wanna go
I just want to go
Back
Home
Wild and torn
Jailed and wasted
I just wanna take
I just wanna take
I just want to take it all
And fly you away
Maybe I will
Maybe I will
The criminal
And the martyr, still
Bruised and...
