Those things...

There are always things
Everywhere
Things that make us smile
For a while
Or cry and fear
Hold them dear
They are the things
That matter
The broken heart
That starts to smart
The sunny morn
The tidy lawn
Together
Green and blue
And yellow of course...

This sucks...

I miss you in the morning
And I miss you late at night
I miss you being close
And it's giving me quite a fright
You left me in a mess
You were there, and now your not
The sudden change is harsh
I feel I'm in a marsh
That's dark and sticky
Very tricky
Confused and lost
But crystal clear
That your not here.

Don't talk to me...

Don't talk to me of Paris
Or Denise or Kate
I've had had an earful
And get quite tearful
Even without a drink to drink...
I'm not your sloppy seconds
You choice you can't decide
I'm not prepared to slide
Into a place that makes me feel
Insecure, unloved, not real...
I want a man who has a plan
To be with me, not check and see
If someone else could fit the bill
I hope they do, cos see that hill?
I'm off to reach the top
And your not going to stop
Me...

Flowing through the day...

It started with a tear
About a quite irrational fear
Your were there
To care
For me
Pulled me close
Held me tight
Made my thoughts turn to light
Touched me here
Touched me there
Turned me up, and wild and on...
Went for coffee, not a cake
Don't want to make
Ourselves fat
That
Would be silly...
Did the painting
Made the room
Look fresh
As a daisy
Went all hazy
With the fumes...
Had a rest
The best rest
Full of romance
Full of need
Did the deed
Beautifully...
Walked the dog
In the bog
Filthy feet
All was calm
All was still
Made me glad
That we were there...
You made tea
Deliciously...
Watched a movie
Had a bath
You read me tales
Of love...
The river flows
And so do we
Perfectly...

A year ago today...

A year ago today
Me and Jimi came to stay
By the sea and by the park
Where we go to in the dark...

A year ago today
All was new, let come what may
What has come has brought a smile
That's seen us through that extra mile...

A year ago today
Where were you, where did you lay?
If it's there you want to be
Put your roots down like a tree
If it's not then make a new
Be super brave and do the do
That needs doing
Now...
Soon it will be a year ago today. X

Rainy cuckoo clocks...

The rain
The pain
Both fine
But not...
Both come
Regardless of choice...
The rain makes my hair curl
The pain makes me cry
My beloved cuckoo clock
Cuckoo's the wrong time
All the time...
I could change the clock,
Take it down and start again...
I could take a pill and stop the pain
And I could move somewhere it never rains...
But all would seem not as it should be then,
So I don't...

Don't shoo..

Don't think I've been thinking straight
Since when I was born
My thinks are wonky
All messed up
In a good way mind
I find...
Always kind.
Thinks of sad
But not too bad
Happy slips in too
Don't shoo
Any away
Let them stay
Give them tea and cake
Make
Friends with them...
Enjoy the mess
More is less
Tangled up with fear
Not hate
Hate hate
Such a weight
To heavy,
Do
Shoo
That.
