I found myself day dreaming
That I was day dreaming
About day dreaming
Luckily a sorcerer
Saved me with magic
With a wisdom of ages
He spoke the words
That brought me back
Fares please and have correct change
Dream over.
I dont know if I'm writing poetry or just stuff thats stuck in my head??
If regrets were cheese
My last name would be Cheddar
If style was intelligence
My first name would be Failure
If looks were financial gain
My middle name would be Broke.
If luck was a hand in poker
Then I would be holding a royal flush
Because this royal flush found
Failure Broke Cheddar
Changed my name to
Mr Mozzarella
Thank you

Revolution a want you think you so
World the change to want all we
Younger was i when
Today than younger much so
Man egg the am i
Walrus the am i
You love me make you oh
Week a days eight
Submarine yellow a in live all we
Submarine yellow, submarine yellow
Station a in train a on yourself picture
Ties glass looking with porters plasticine with
Just a bit of nonsense Stanley Unwin style
I wish I could go back in time.
Correct the errors in my prime
But correcting one destroys another
And the good I would not want to smother
So for all the mistakes I have inflicted
At least three time lines I have predicted
Cheated on the first wife
That error I would correct
But cheated on second wife
That error I would correct
But cheated on third wife
That error I would correct
But not every correction
Is a mistake on reflection
What i didn't realise
Is where the problem lies
So now I know I'm the mistake
I have to stop and make the brake
So back in time I speak to my dad
Tell him not to get  real mad
Explain on this night with my mother
Make dam sure your pens has a cover
In public my face is hard
In public my heart is stone
In public my fists are clenched
In public my eyes do stare
In public my back is straight
In public my voice is harsh
This is not me

In private my face is smiling
In private my heart is blue
In private my hands are warm
In private my back does bend
In private my eyes reflect
In private my voice is tempered
This is me

I wonder why the real me is afraid
So many years of this mess I made.
Hidden myself away for all this time
Like I'd committed some horrible crime
The real me has always wanted to break out.
But for so long been full of doubt
So now time is passing me by
I wonder if its to late to try
So I came to this conclusion
That life is just an illusion
Your here today gone tomorrow
With bites of joy and lots of sorrow
Time as a child swift and enlightening
Teenager years mysterious and frightening
Young adult decade building a future
House and a spouse hope they will suit you
Into your thirties mortgage and children
The house that was home us more like a warren
The middle years a crisis is coming
Motorbike revving leave the engine running.
Its getting late time to check on your savings.
Make sure you have enough for all your cravings
So now your rocking in your favorite chair
Look round for your family but realise your in care
People visit you your name the do mention
But your mind is fading into dementia.
Now doctor sleep is stood at your bed
You just woke up to find you are dead.
