cheap perfume, dreadful news, i pay my dues while miss drunk and deluded decides to trip all over my shoes i'm her champagne flush, a nicotine rush, and her unrequited crush but the only thing i ever notice is how the crowds hush when you start humming tunes, singing blues, like you always do your smile subtle, warm, holding far more joy than it ever used to i sold your ring to the highest bidder, but my best friend actually likes you he persuaded me to donate it all, it’s what you would've wanted me to do so while tonight is all cheap perfume, dreadful news, and paying dues   when miss drunk and deluded once again steps all over my poor shoes it's easy to smile and stay calm because i'm drunk and deluded, too and when i dance with my eyes closed, i am slow waltzing with you

triple time
humming tunes, singing blues, dancing jewels miss looking for love is dancing all over your leather shoes over uneven pavement, over failed engagements i sent your ring back, i couldn't bear to see it, nor sell it even now, my six-eight time signatures are still bringing your custom-length tailcoats to a Viennese waltzing all while your upper-echelon friends keep pretending like they don't find satisfaction in my subtle mourning tonight is all humming tunes, singing blues, and dancing jewels i am still lingering, still humming our tunes, still singing our blues, i am still feigning ignorance, and my finger is still missing a jewel, i am still center stage, but someone else dances with you

six-eight time
Real Not Fiction A hole is a hole said the Mule As he stuck his stump up a slapper This saying was mirrored by another Who told a story of his friends And what recently happened One long term friend has a gal They’d been together 7 years And planned to get married Spending a lifetime together Already lovers and more You know how it goes So to be happy in bliss But a big problem arose Another old school pal Caused a fuss with the gal Who was a guy before! So now you’re a gal not a guy How did that come about? A trip to Thailand and cash Lots of cash from her rich family The school pal seeing the gal Wasn’t aware of any of this Just that he was in love Happy and going to be married To a gal who was once a guy He was oblivious to this Unlike the other ex-pupil They gave the gal guy it A week to tell her fiancé All of the truth of they’d do it I told the pal who knew them all Make sure the guy who Knew them all Never killed the gal Who was once a guy Like the American one What will happen Within this week Happiness or war? A hole is a hole Even if no kids Reality not fiction The Mule was right

Real Not Fiction
My heart it aches for you the soft linens of your skin the way it envelops my paper thins My heart it yearns for you the white wind of your lips the way it soothes my black wisps My heart it pines for you the pride of lions of your eyes the way it penetrates my blank stares My heart come home to my heart

Making love
I was inspired by the eyes of my love, as she looked over as we did commonplace chores in the urban centre. I had admired the slight of her touch, as we embraced in the dew-covered morn just as I left her. My love waits for me, alone, tired, moans, mired, in the past, of our memories. We exist, with each other. We resist, one another. Then desist, hopeful hover. My love is alone, though I am there, I am with you my love, I’m sorry, I have to help this, I just want to lie in your arms, away from all this, I’ve found love, but cannot be there, in the splendor of its beauty, I must see to something, but my love, I will be with you, as it was before, again, I promise.

Promising
*yesterday, we met again. you looked slightly different. your beard has grown, and your hair has turned slightly grey. i told you how good you looked but you didn't believe me. you told me how much i've also changed since we last saw each other. i told you that i wanted to try something new, but not that it was my insecurities that made me change myself. i told you how much i miss your stories and that i still have our book with your notes written in it. you told me that you don't miss my obnoxious personality and my pretentious opinions. we laughed and talked about our short time. you made a comment about the things that could never be. i laughed and asked you how she's doing. i listened to you talk about your girlfriend, who is now your fiancee. i would like to say i was prepared for it, but i can never get used to the way you speak about her. i know you love her more than anything. i know i never meant anything to you. and even if i did, we just weren't meant to be. but knowing these things doesn't make them hurt less, even after all these years.*

Past
In your eyes, I see the brightest light The beam that shining in front of me It goes straight into my heart And light my world so I can see In your eyes, I find colors Shimmering like a rainbow I see two bodies dance with grace Held by love that make them glow In your eyes, I read the words The words that only you can tell You may not speak but heart can hear The sweetest sound like wedding bell
