Second best

Second best is not for me,
Waiting round till you are free.
Here when you have nothing more,
What else could I be for?

Wednesday 12 December 2012

I walk away

Sitting there, hand on face,
Clearly give up the chase.
Try to reason, try to change,
Sitting here just feels too strange.

I try to move and hold your hand,
Tell you things will be so grand.
You twist your head and turn around,
Tell me that you feel too drowned.

Talking's over, I walk away,
Wish you would call to stay.
Out the door, down the lane
Never to return again.

Against it all.

You and me against it all,
Stood together, a brick wall,
Make any problem seem so small,
But then he came to call.

He came and stole you away from me,
Filled you will up with glee.
Hid you so couldn't see,
Tried to make you free.

Now I know you're not the same,
Different rules, different game.
Growing like an open flame,
He's the one to blame.

I wish I could

I wish I could make it better,
Wish I could make it go away.
I wish I could show you,
Wish I could make you see.

To show you this is ok,
Show you we are all here.
To show you that you're not alone,
Show you that we care.

To try and help you understand,
Try to get you through.
To try to stop you from hurting,
Try to help you.

Homeward Bound

Life is a voyage that is homeward bound,
A huge long journey that goes round and round,
Starts from life, and ends in the ground,
But life is always homeward bound.

The Perfect Two

“We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.” 
 Dr. Seuss


Started out as a mistake,
A hand held tight, give or take,
I thought your feelings were all fake,
Then my heart began to ache.

Thoughts of you filled my head,
Scared of what would come ahead,
You loved her, or so you said,
But then you turned and fled.

Soon it was just me and you,
As they said, the perfect two,
I felt something strange and new,
I knew we were to see this through.

Here we are, months along,
And we are still going strong,
We proved that they were so wrong,
Together for so long.

I pray and hope that this will last,
Laying out upon the grass,
Time with you moves so fast,
Our future will become our past.
