black
eileen mcgreevy Dec 2010
I thought i was the chosen one,
The feeling was amazing,
But i fell for a frozen one,
His heart drives me crazy,
He'll let me in,but just a bit,
Then pull away, and make me cry,
He'll tease with words of marriage,
Then disappear, and say goodbye,
A veil of black and lonely cloth,
Imprisons him, but we both know,
He's strong enough to rip it up,
Instead he chooses to let me go

Old Purple Coat
eileen mcgreevy Jan 2010
Oh where have you gone to my old purple coat?,
With your buttons made from the horns of a goat,
How i fought with my mother when she'd make me wear you,
Yet now i just wish that the mothballs will spare you.

I have searched in the attic, where my dress up chest is,
And ive looked in the garden where my tree house is,
How ive hunted and searched for you,my head has no peace,
I so want you to turn up, to give you to my neice.

Maybe one day i'll find you and hold you so close,
And say sorry for hating you and calling you gross,
I feel sure you're hung somewhere warm, in a cupboard,
So until then i hope you're safely covered.

pondering
eileen mcgreevy May 2010
It's raining again,
Why is it that the rain makes you feel awful when youre sad,
But brilliant when youre happy?
I'm crying again,
Why is it that i can cry with joy,
But also with sorrow?
Our song's on again,
Why is it that every time i hear it,
My heart skips a beat?
I guess it's because i love you....

Innocence Lost
eileen mcgreevy Mar 2010
Little legs swing merrily,
The bluest eyes stare wearily,
Deception lies within her,
Will anyone believe her?,
She struggles to explain,
Too young to understand,
A violation of youth,
Abuse of childhood trust,
The bravery she shows,
Could teach us all a lot,
The man who cruelly stole,
Her innocence he swapped,
Relief in those blue eyes,
That , this time, he's been stopped...

awakening
eileen mcgreevy May 2010
I heard your voice,

I swear, i felt you touch me,

You sang that silly song to me,

I could smell your beautiful body,

We made love, slow,
And heartfelt,

Then fast, and frantic,

You whispered"I love you Elly",

Then,

I awoke!,

And, died,

A dream is the closest thing i'll ever get to you,

My love...

lord mountjoy (two)
eileen mcgreevy Oct 2010
The thirst was gripping,
His will was slipping,
A fix would sort him out,
A female ******,
This genius surgeon,
To this faith, he is devout.

The moon shows up,
He drains his cup,
And enters into the night,
The wait seems longer,
He has time to ponder,
How he'll use his doctors knife.

And, look, he sees her,
His need is like fever,
He must be careful now,
Her drunken laughter,
He follows after,
And  wipes his sweaty brow.

A sweep so quick,
And just a *****,
Her neck leaks blood, so slowly,
His eyes close up,
His ego shows up,
Mountjoy leaves temporarily.

Here stands a monster,
Who pounced upon her,
climactic satisfaction,
His work plans grow,
He intends to show,
These girls, are, but a fraction...

Alone
eileen mcgreevy Mar 2010
She sits alone ,
He's not coming,
She waits and waits.

She cries alone,
He's stopped caring,
She wails and wails.

She dies alone,
He's done loving her,
She fades and, fades.

if only i knew
eileen mcgreevy Oct 2009
"If i knew you were coming, i'd have put something on",
But his face didnt care if clothes were off or on.
His eyes showed a sadness, only she could recognise,
As he began to speak, tears welled up in his eyes.

"Im afraid its mum" his words fighting past his lips,
But she didn't comprehend,leapt down stairs with skips.
"Mum?" She said, almost asm though he were foreign,
But his blank stare confirmed the strange words that were pouring.

Blank expressions were followed by a trance like condition,
This went on for three days and three nights, such renditions,
Going through the motions, fancy dress or otherwise,
Death cares not if you're bare or disguised.

When it comes, boys and girls, worry not what you wear,
For it just wants your soul, and will take it without a care,
Day or night, rain or fall, mark my words to you all,
Let the family decide on the colour of your shawl!!!!

Winter Blues
eileen mcgreevy Nov 2009
I've seen them in the springtime,
You put them to such good use,
I've seen them in the summertime,
Show to me, your winter blues.

They shone like diamonds over breakfast,
That spark they'll never lose,
That April sun was shining,
I need to see those winter blues.

Return to me my love,
Forever you i choose,
Those eyes of polar ice i need,
My Chris' winter blues.

I ordered it off an ebay account,
You accepted my bid, i paid the amount,
You promised to post the thing straight away,
But its already been a week and a day...


Its cover all yellow with lovely Will Young,
I looked forward to hear all the songs he had sung,
But no satisfaction is coming my way,
And now it has been a week and two days...


My payment was prompt,and you sent me your thanks,
I want a refund, put it back in the bank,
I will give you just one more chance,that's all i'll say,
Please send me Will Young, off the ****** ebay>>>

Layercake
eileen mcgreevy Dec 2009
Like the skins of an onion,
You peel at my layers,
Hoping we two become one,
Please answer my prayers.


Laid bare so exposed to you,
All consuming ***** love,
You whisper what you want me to do,
Our parts together fit, like a glove.


Is this a dream, or are you really devouring me?,
Can i open my eyes to see,us sharing my cake?,
Like warm,wet honey, you are pouring me,
I reach that place and begin to shake.


This meal tastes so good to us,
We eat it , but we take our time,
Your custard filling makes me hiss,
Isn't our layercake so sublime?

Alovers plea
eileen mcgreevy Aug 2010
Gently take through til dawn dear,
This lonely night is so unkind,
Wash me down with rays of love light,
Brighten up this troubled mind.

Please assist me through this hell dear,
Usher past those demon dreams,
All consuming loving wings here,
Take this heavy heart and love it clean.

I am here now, in the dark dear,
Bring your light and shelter me,
Take me home now, kiss away my tears,
Only you, i long to see X...

letter to a dead man
eileen mcgreevy Mar 2010
Look at you, smirking slyly at me,
Thinking, knowing they can't see,
"She's a strange one" they would say,
God, if only they could see.

Years have passed, you almost slipped,
We clashed one night and i flipped,
I let it out, the dam had burst,
Mum heard me, and her sanity tripped.

I tried so hard to keep it quiet,
Among the drink fuelled family riots,
Such violation on my youth,
I prayed for guidance, you should try it.

No conviction you recieved,
I'll bet, you ****, you were relieved,
Til death aquitted you became,
I'll haunt you for eternity!

Define the state of human being as empty,
Void,
Unkempt,
Depthless.....

Define the state of human being as alone,
At one,
Solitary,
Singular...

Define the state of human being spent,
Done,
Black,
No more....

compensation
eileen mcgreevy Aug 2010
She looked so sweet when she was born,
An angel in disguise,
You walk the floors, your shoes are worn,
You can't believe her lies.

She knows just how to play you now,
She knows what face to pull,
But you've grown tired of her ways now,
Dad is no more the fool.

You do the best you can by her,
But all she sees is spite,
Your actions prove your love for her,
But she can't see the light.

So where's the thanks we get from them,
When they are grown and gone?,
No compensation here my friend,
Trust me, you're on your own!

You're born,
You try,
You fail,
So, you recover,
Try again,
Yet you fail, You're weeker,
But, recover,
Do you retry?,
I did,
I tried again,
I succeeded,
I,am, loved,
We ALL get a do over...

I watched a movie tonight,
I saw myself in her.
Not that pretty, but very bright,
And wished the man she loved, loved her.

His pity uneases her,
But she knows the truth,
He's afraid to leave her,
In case she jumps off the roof.

He's smart, sensitive, but not always there,
She's willing to cope,
wanting a life to share.

Such confusion she feels,
Is he there or is he gone?,
Pleading nightly, will he tell her,
Or just lead her on?.

Thanking god, but she curses him,
Bringing such beauty to her,
Will he send her to hell?
Or will he simply conferr??

Torn life
eileen mcgreevy Dec 2009
I sat one night, and heard a tale named"how to spot a rat",
This poor young girl spoke of how he broke her, just like that!,
As though she were a piece of dirt, a snot on a fingernail,
And unaware so much was she her love would never fail.

He'd start by saying"baby" so he'd not forget her name,
And every night at the same time, her love he would claim,
So, listening to this poor girl, i sat and wondered why,
This man i loved with all my being would always make me cry?,

I'd pine and frett over him, i love him, oh so much,
But he's neglected to tell me of his secret, and i'm crushed,
He has toyed with me, i've been his puppet,now my life is void,
It took a stupid movie for me to see, now im destroyed.

Next time you set out hurting her, and seeking what you're after,
Come see my grave , and wonder, was it really worth the laughter??

final Beginnings
eileen mcgreevy Oct 2009
Can you hear the wind blow?
Can you hear what it's saying?
I can sense, your pain is too much,
You must not think of staying.

Im brave enough for now,
I've practised and learned,
You must spread your wings,
And you must leave this earth.

Something wonderful waits for you,
Something you've been waiting for,
There's something very tranquil there,
So spread your wings and soar.

If leaving me should worry you,
Then try your best, fear not,
Because if your pain dies with you,
Then i'll release this love i've got.

So close your eyes my baby,
And know how much you're loved,
And stretch your wings, be on your way,
To heaven, like a dove......

Home Coming
eileen mcgreevy May 2010
People tell me daily my love,
Our love will never make it,

Their endless taunts dig deep my love,
Sometimes i just can't take it.

But then i hear your voice my sweet,
And the love comes flooding back,

You tell me of their jealousy, my sweet,
And of the true love they lack.

I ache for you at  night,dear lover,
Smelling you in my dreams,

I see the love we make, my lover,
And the mingling of our creams.

What i'm trying to say to you, soul mate,
Is please wait for us to become one,

They may not let you go soon, soul mate,
But i'll be here, when you come home....

                                       I Love You

I know we should wait,
                   For that time to come,
                   I know patience is needed,
                   Until you come home,
                   Do you play the game?,
                   Do you want time to fly?,
                   Or am i alone,a lone player,
                   Ever dreading that "Goodbye"?.

Sanctuary
eileen mcgreevy Dec 2009
If i showed you a place where your heart wouldn't hurt,
Would you come with me?,
If i gave you the key, without saying a word,
Would you turn the key?.

I do know of such wonders of love and delight,
It's right here with me,
Where i will kiss away terrors you feel in the night,
It's just you and me.

I have tasted such mindless disease in myself,
Although yours is much worse,
Open up my love, let me show you my help,
I will **** this curse.
i love you

Know That I Love You
eileen mcgreevy Nov 2009
You know that i love you,
As long as birds live in the trees,
And fish swim in the seas.
You know that i love you,
As long as flowers continue to grow,
As long as the rivers still flow,
You know that i love you,
Just because of who you are,
Because you shine brighter than any star,
You know that i love you,
When i know it is my destiny,
When i know you'll always belong to me.....

shooting down the moon
eileen mcgreevy Apr 2010
I wish that i could see your face,
I'm in the dark right now,
My sentiments are out of place,
I hate it when we row.

I need the light that shines from you,
Illuminate me please,
Enlighten me, come shining through,
Im right here on my knees.

We to and fro so many times,
I need you to commit,
To have you in my life always,
I really yearn for it.

If i could shoot the moon down here,
I'd give it to you babe,
So you and i could shine for good,
Until we are in our graves.
