There has been millions of poems since I last posted, and this one isn't much like what I do, but I like it, and thought f**k it, since I'm in the mood that is represents, I shall just post it
Maybe some clouds are too high to fly on forever, When will I see you? Maybe never, I can’t help but be a friend, But I thought I’d be there until the end, What do I get for bringing open arms? Heart at risk and hopes at harm, Disappear from what was heaven, Struggle to reach even cloud number 7, I’ll hold my breath and maybe the pain will disappear, But I know it won’t, it will only bring tears, No reason as to why you ever left home, But wherever you’ve gone I’m still alone.

SWEETER JANE
Nothing but grey, only one gorgeous red flame glowing Dull ache, always knowing, never knowing Love growing, written words, never spoken One hundred and forty two pages, heart broken Deep fascination, I love to read your mind I never minded what you read, but was scared of what you’d find
You never married she said, “no I’m searching for perfection” You ever happy I said, “no I’m looking for perfection” I waited half a minute or so, “lets get married I said” You laughed, smiled that wondering smile I read And I’m still looking for direction
A lifetime picture postcard two versions of yourself in flame Etched in time the younger you, immortal and insane The present living breathing you still my heroin Knowing if you never lose it means you never win
Let me love the bones of you, turn my words into a song One that we can dance alone with when everything is wrong From the books of old and the days of new And the story of tomorrow, well its you

be generous walk, dont drive be the shoulder keep your dreams alive ring, dont text visit, dont ring surprise yourself; have dignity and dont settle for a quick fling keep it meaningful and cherish all yours hours and while they are alive, not dead give the important people flowers.

Killed By One Of My Own
Cornered me at the top of the stairs He found the bread knife in the foliage And pierced me in my puny gut Butter fused with blood Treachery on a plush white rug
Loyalty fades as he twists the blade
I slithered out into the street The neighbours averted their eyes And preened their hanging baskets Ah, the spirit of the blitz I came up screaming but he was having none of it He caved my face in like a beetle under a brick
Killed by one of my own He fancied a day in my shoes No, he wanted my throne Since he’s ending me reign Let it be known that his mother is a benefit cheat
