You lied to me
I don’t know why
You try manipulation
And then you cry.
Is it a game you
like to play
To try and win
And get your
own way.
I smile
shoulders I shrug
I Make you a tea
In your favourite mug,
You do not have to
Lie to me there’s
Too much heartache
Don’t you agree.

I felt  alive
When you were
By my side,
We travelled
The countries
Far and wide.
Then one morning
In the night you died,
For next year
I cried and cried.
My lover
My soul mate
I miss your face
I scattered your ashes
In your favourite place.
Im still travelling
Far and wide
Everyday wishing
We were
side by side.

Part time flag wavers
Brainwashed by news
Lambs following evil
They haven’t a clue.
Is it really about flags
Is it really about hate
Is it about containment
Because of an open gate.
They’ve found a ***
Of golden honey
Where there given shelter
And a bit of money.
Part time flag wavers
Guarding a ***
Not knowing really why
If you wanting change
Be prepared to die.

I lay beside you
With a troubled mind
I cannot sleep
You’ve been so unkind.
Your back is turned
Your shoulder is cold
What can I do to get
Back into the fold.
Why can’t you tell me
What I have done bad,
The longer it go’s on
Im beginning  to be sad.
I fall asleep in the
Morning your gone
Please please tell
Me what I’ve done wrong.

Clouds are dark
I feel the pain
Oh dear its pouring
Razor blades again.
Sit beside me
hold my hand,
I need to feel
your kindness
Please understand.
I know it’s not
The answer it’s not
going to heal,
Thank you my friend,
I  just like
the way it feels.

Patriotic nationalistic
Isn’t an on of button
Or when it suits you.
Pride in your country
Isn’t just about a flag
Or coming home
in a body bag.
Patriotism is love
Patriotism is kind
Next step is nationalism
Bring on the hate
Im better than you
Oh dear humanity
As eaten itself
Wow to late.

Cold of heart
Brain so sharp
With poison pen
She made a start.
Words of hatred
Words of love
about a
Woman in black
Wearing silk gloves.
She was looking
For happiness in
A cauldron of fire
Her words of hatred
Tried not to inspire,
Her words of love
Of lust and desire.
In the end her pen
Caught fire.
