Love Stamp

You walked right through me,
muscle and bone.
Left your silhouette in my heart-zone.
Now all it is
is a cut-out of you.
A heart-shaped keyhole
love once looked through.

The Empty Place That's You.

When you want to escape,
but there's nowhere to go.
You are your own home.
With shattered windows,
kicked in doors.
Empty halls.
There's no running away,
from what you are.
Here, let me give you a spray-can,
so you can spray pain.

Ol' Boy Sirius

Born under a star,
with an unfortunate sense of direction.
Meant to guide me,
mongrel led me astray!
Wild-goose chase.
I followed my dreams,
lost sight,
found doubt.
Wore that as a mantle for a bit.
To keep the cold in,
and the world at bay.
Canis Major pain in my arse!
Give that damn star a bone.

Tra La La

There comes a point,
when you can't continue.
Destination's the same,
but you are not.
One step more,
For the hell of it.
Basket in your hand,
Tra la la.
 
 


Poke the Hole

Loneliness,
is a painful hole.
Unfulfilled,
in the centre of you.
Dug by others.

Destiny Tripped

I stumbled on the fault in my stars,
on my step.
Fell out of love the wrong way.
Slowly,
then all at once,
Destiny tripped.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Marital Bliss

Dear Wife, you're a cheater.
An alcoholic.
Incompetent,
at best a joke.
I'm your lover,
and your friend.
By your side until the end.
Doesn't matter,
any more,
you're a stupid, fucking whore.
I didn’t mean it,
to act that way,
it just happened what can I–
Say nothing!
You're dead to me,
What does that mean?
We're stuck together.
For the kids?
Until their grown.
Then you'll leave?
That seed, you've sown,
with your thighs,
with your lies.
We are what we reap, Husband Dear!
