Actions speak
Louder than words
I think you'll find
You can be fine
Stop speaking
And act on what
Is to be done
It's about a persons
Actions not their
Same old song

Never as hot as summer
Never too cold to hide
Never waiting for winter
Never wanting to say
Goodbye

Who's it for? This life?
Is it for me or for you?
I look back and see all the characters
I played for you
And I wonder what I would think
If I was you
Standing and looking back at me

I want to be more like you
You hold the power like I do
But you are strong and consistent
Well sometimes you act different
But you understand the parts
That aren't perfect all the time
So you don't get disappointed
And you put health before love
And then wealth even if I put
Love and then health and wealth
What I'm trying to say is you
Respect me any time even if
Sometimes I don't act the same
And for that I really appreciate you

It was like a dream
They came to my door
To welcome me out
With thoughtful questions
And a sense of unity
At first I wondered
Why are they being so nice
I had no time to question
My day at work went okay
I've not been doing much
Yes I am close to my dad
I met with my manager
Yesterday to talk about
My body and my mind
I didn't expect to see them
Again for a long time
After I had read my poem
Out so nervously the night
Before I had wanted to hide
They came into my bedroom
And we went for waffles
Then next thing we are
On the train to York and
Stood on the castle walls
It was too special to explain
They cheered me up again
Even if with everyone else
I had clocked out

If I asked you to appreciate me
To show me that you love me
Just how I like to be shown
Would you sit and think it through
Or would you know what to do
I'm not meaning read my mind
I'm saying do you know me
Well enough to see what I need
Or have the courage to ask
In sickness and in health
The point is not to just exist
But be willing to support me
Helping me to appreciate you
That's the kind of love I need
I'm not asking you to know it all
But as time goes on I want you
To be my human hot water bottle

You’ve got me good I'll admit
You’ve got me thinking that
With your superb intentions
And your feelings directing me
Taking my soul this way and that way
You’ve got me always walking past
Those unlucky drains and pavement cracks
You've got me thinking it's all planned out
You’ve got me aligning my universe
Each time I mind my steps carefully
My boyfriend notices and joins in too
All this time you got me thinking I own you
Superstition you’ve got a hold on me
You got me trained to look for the number 3
In everything I see and do do do
There's no harm in touching things equally
Superstition you've been moulding me
But I don't believe I deserve misery
After experiencing happiness anymore
I won't disown you completely
But I'll be walking under the next ladder I see
