Lost


I want to live on an island, but only if nobody is there.  
I want to shine like a diamond in the sun lights reflection,
But I am finding it hard to find anybody who cares.


Love is never solitary,
But that is all I can be.
Right now, until I am ready to go steady, I shall remain alone;
With no need for a lover to call my own.


A broken heart, a darkened soul;
A lover no more, devoid of hope.
Ten souls on board, no more, no less;
Ten souls sinking down into the abyss.


I'd love to help you, if only I could find the right time;
They say time heals all wounds, but we know they are lying.
Take me in to cure your boredom; the sun no longer shines.
What have we done to all the fallen hearts that are all still dying?


I have nothing left to hide, you took my heart;
You took my pride, you took everything!
When you walked out of my life.
Now all I see is death through these eyes.


The ones who are lost,
Still rot in your imagination.
I am up the creek without a paddle
And you are never here to help me,
When I am desperately in need of a little direction.

Scared to be loved.


In your mirror I cannot see a place for me.
Inside your aura, I do not feel safe.
At your side I only feel that I need to leave,
Because I know one day you will go away.


Beneath your wings I am still getting burned.
I am suffocating in your arms, let me breathe.
With you at my side I should have been able to turn,
But my life is heading straight into a catastrophe.


As the buildings collapse and crash down all around us,
I am left to reflect on the end of our love.
As the hope disappears, I am only left alone with my empty wishes.
I cannot give you what you need;
I can only be a plaster when you are in need of stitches.
Something permanent to heal what we are losing.
No Obamacare can save us from us;
I think it is time for us to say…who are we truly fooling?

Love is a lie


Love is a creation used to excuse a person’s mistakes.
Words of love are falsely used in a deceitful way.
You allow them to lie to you because of love again.
Love is a way out of a dead end broken truth.
Love has us all under its spell…today’s love is just like yesterday.


We are all entrapped by a word without meaning.
We are all the same and we are all blind to rational thinking.
We are all condemned to keep on believing.
Love is our punishment and love stops us leaving.


Love is a drug that can never keep us fully satisfied.
It feeds on us, it drains us and it makes us cry.
It leaves us in pieces every time we see love walking away
And the very next page of this book of love, life and lies,
We are back on our knee’s begging to be loved again.


Love can ruin the happiest of days.
Love cannot be trusted; love is a cage around our brain.
Love is a sentence, a memory; it comes and it goes.
Love is misery, love is sadness.
Love is all that I want and still not one part of it do I know.
