All I need
Is me next to you
I want all of you
That much is true

You've found someone else
And left me behind
The memories of us
Still haunting my mind

If he makes you happy
You have my support
He captured you heart
And I fell short

I wish things were different
I can't change the past
But if he breaks your heart
I'm kicking his ***

"On second thought I will not stay."
As I turn to say goodbye.
There is nothing left for us to say,
The conversation has run dry.

We tried our best to make it work,
We tried to live the lie.
So it's time to go, to avoid the hurt.
So you wont have to cry.

That I must walk out the door
Is for the best, you can't deny.
But I'll remember you forever more,
Until the day I die.

I went crazy when you first smiled.
I went crazy when you held my hand.
I went crazy when you said you loved me
even if it meant crazy was who I am.

I went crazy when you looked into my eyes.
I went crazy when you held the doors.
I went crazy when I was in your arms
and I went crazy when you called me yours.

I went crazy when you kissed my skin.
I went crazy when you took away the pain.
But if this is what crazy feels like,
I swear, I don't ever want to be sane.

She rifled through me like a set of old drawers,
clothes strewn all over the bed and floor.
My eyes there
My ears there
My skin there
My lungs there
My mind there
My head there
But my heart over there
Away from the rest of me
She stomped on it as she walked out
It bled all over the carpet
And hasn’t stopped since.

A full moon suspended
In a slate grey sky
Wisps of clouds illuminated
As they drift casually by.

Stars sparkle brightly
Un-obscured by any cloud
The Milky Way packed tightly
Where thousands seem to crowd.

Aeroplanes criss- cross the skies
For far off cities bound
Cats and dogs night time cries
The only other sounds

Moths and many other creatures
Flutter furiously in the light
Spiders crawl from cracks and fissures
In their element at night

A serene and soothing silence
Steadily descends
Night in all of its magnificence
As yet another day ends.

Martha was ugly, like a shaven baboon.
So she wrapped herself up in a curtain cocoon.
One week later, she finally emerged---
She smelled like ****.
What a ******!
The Keeper of Peace,
Holds the keys,
As she shakes the bars,
And begs to leave,
He raises an eyebrow,
And tightens his hand,
She sighs softly,
And sits in the sand,
Stares at the world,
Longs to get out,
Taps on the floor,
And begins to shout:
"I've been trapped in here,
Every ******* day,
But you still don't give a ****,
As long as I stay!"
The Keeper of Peace,
Turned at her words,
Grabbed her wrist through the bars,
And spits, words slurred,
"Whatever you say here,
Doesn't change a thing,
You are the bird in this cage,
And when I tell you, you sing."
He releases her arm,
And blinks off her retort,
A murmur of words,
"*******" all he caught,
With a subtle smile,
And a glint in his eye,
He looks her dead on,
And prepares his reply,

"You know,
For a girl who's supposed to be 'Peace'...
You're awfully moody."

"I'll get out one day,
And when I do,
People like you,
Won't know what hit them."
Well this ended up a little different to how I expected
