My bipolar will make sure I'm alone
It will take all the fun parts of my relationship
It will take the playfulness
It will take away kisses in the kitchen
Stealing the tickles and wrestling
Killing the early morning giggles
It's eating my relationship from the inside out
Its going to eat all the things I loved about being in love
He's gonna hate me
I will be alone before he leaves
I will make him hate me
And I can't turn it off
It's a bad day

Don't forget me
In the tide of your life
For the tides take me nowhere
I will not be able to find you
If you let the sea steal you away.
BD Rohrer Jan 2018
a mask
for company
a mask
to steal
to lie
a mask
to live
a mask to die…

there are no refunds
Caroline Roche Dec 2017
Your sentences were gated,
And locked within your lungs -
Your words forbidden fruit to me,
The apple of your tongue.
The uninspired oft’ find it hard
To leave another’s song unsung.

So I harvested your phrases -
I burglarized your breath,
And nurtured all your laden words
‘Till there was nothing left.

And living with your hollowed words,
I died a stolen death.
G Rog Rogers Sep 2017

Just to touch your emotions
Just to know how you feel
Just to touch your emotions
Baby I'd beg I'd lie I'd steal
Baby I'd beg I'd lie I'd steal

Just to get some reaction
a little more closer I sigh
Just to get some reaction
Baby I'd love to see you smile
Baby I'd love to see you smile

Still I see you slippin'
Oh I see you slippin'
I see you slippin'  
away from me
I know that you
been slippin'
Oh I see you slippin'
I see you slippin'
away from me
There's no more laughter
only tears

Telephone is ringing
is there someone at all
When you answer
your screaming
I simply wanted to call
I simply wanted to call

Just remembered devotion
Just been thinkin' it through
Just remembered devotion
Whatever happened to you?
Whatever happened to you.

Still I see you slippin'
Oh I see you slippin'
I see you slippin'
away from me
I know that you
been slippin'
Oh I see you slippin'
I see you slippin'
away from me
There's no more laughter
only tears

Just to touch your emotions
Just to know how you feel
Just to touch your emotions
Baby I'd beg I'd lie I'd steal
Baby I'd beg I'd lie I'd steal

Baby I'd beg... I'd lie... I'd steal

This is actually a pretty nice little Jazz tune. From the response it doesn't seem to work as Lyrical Poetry. The song can be heard on Facebook under G Rog Rogers. It reached #283 in USA on one international chart.

how do you make fire,
she asks me.

i steal it off your eyes
every time
you think about him

and it burns.

Seen hundreds and hundreds
and I know exactly why
Tweakers steal and lie
Tweakers cry
and Tweakers die

Brain fried
and barely alive
Always Jonesen'
to get another high
Just another day
in a ****-Head life

Beautiful girls
too soon turned
old and decrepit
Yeah we know
your sick
and you say
you can't help it

Sell their soul
and their body as well
Just another **** day
in Tweakers Hell

You stand up and say
then what is the cure?
Nobody knows
but death will do.

BUT YOU, CHURCH GIRL.


O, you church
Can you not see  the way I feel about you
And the way you make my passions and emotions run
Each time I hear you sings those hymns and pun,
As my skin tingles so aloud, and withers without you?


But O,you church girl
Do you not care to read your bible with me
Or teach me the genesis the revelations bring
So the birds of my faith can again flee,
To higher heights and delightfully sing?


O,you church girl
Do you know in my sleeps last night
I dreamt about your naked body whole,
And in the realism of that beauty, you sprite
A mystery ride of endless rolls I knew not how to control?


O ,you church girl
Have you not read how perfect
I described and expressed your thighs in the rhymes
Of an unravelling blouse-poem with respect
To how I want to draw your body and climb?


But O, you church girl
Will you not follow me to where I live
And learns why Ieft the holy books in dust,
Just to hunt and drink in the gold-lust
Or will you not ask about my broken beliefs?


O, you church girl
Do you not understand my pagan madness,
And how murderously I am rooted in this world of sadness
Doing the rights in the wrong
And thinking this home I shall ever belong?

*
But O, you church girl
Take me with you for down the hill
Of my heart lies the most insidious evil
Seducing me to either steal or ****
Leaving me now broken, tattered and shriveled.
i am murderously crushing on a church girl
Anne Webb Jul 2017
I stole a heart today
so what
mine was stolen
a very long time ago
and no one cared
so what should I do
about that heart
which now lies
in the pocket
of my little shorts
gathering dust
maybe I could replace
the black hole
inside my chest
where my stolen heart
used to be
but then again
I thought
how now there was
someone just like me
with a hole in their chest
and they will have to
steal their own heart
to fill the void
just like I will now
that's the circle of life
I guess
AWE
