You're just another name to the list Of the times Cupid's arrow missed Maybe Robin Hood could do more He steals from the rich, gives to the poor

The List
You play on my mind like a looped vinyl disc, Your words are my new favourite song, To utter my thoughts, are too great a risk, For you and for I, for ‘us’, I long, How can I live leaving great all unsaid, Dare I wear my heart on my sleeve? Hands and legs entwined, entangled in bed, The last I would want to aggrieve, - I confessed, you are the one, the exception, Best friends, we are - forever more? The one to which I pour my affection, Don't bloom this wound, open and sore, A soft whisper disregards all my plight, 'Your heart is pounding like the rain', 'Breath with me', soft, you console that night, In that moment we were the same

The Exception
She had the kind of face that could swallow your hope like a fly, sinking in an olympic sized swimming pool You'd never have her, she'd never want you Her eyes two blue lakes you could submerge in, drown in, wishing to never sea them stream Black painted arcs curved, framing, They could make Mona Lisa frown green with envy Beauty etched so deep, so true time itself could never erase
