In my life
Out my life
We fuck when you want
Then you leave
Connection, ecstasy, contentment
Distanced, depression, emptiness
You want this
I want that
You win
I lose
Everyone is welcome
In my life
Out my life
We fuck when you want
Then you leave
Connection, ecstasy, contentment
Distanced, depression, emptiness
You want this
I want that
You win
I lose
Just because you can
Doesn’t mean you should
Oh the irony
It just makes me laugh
I never was your first choice
Just not on your path
After months together
Finally ready to trust
I gave you the three words
In my book a must
We were happy again
I was in bliss
Good just being with you
Every little kiss
Until the day you left me
Distance so ever sure
You wasn’t replying
The story evermore
It hurt so much
But it wasn’t new
My head cried for my heart
Not knowing what to do
After a year we stayed friends
We still met
Nothing happened
Certainly wouldn’t bet
Until one night
We went out and had a ball
Fuck it was crazy
It had it all
Alcohol, dancing, clubs at 40+
Then it was sure
A kiss and cuddle
I was gonna score
So we went to yours
Drunken mess sex
Just enjoying ourselves
It wasn’t my best
It was one off
I was gone the next day
A silly mistake
It was nice to play
A few days later
Lighting my phone
You wanted more
To come to my home
So one more time
It happened again
A nice escape
With a good friend
You checked with me
That i was good
You said “just sex”
And I said “yes”
No news for two months
Until I text
Come to catch up
Hoping for sex
So this time we meet
It was all good
But she wants more
Not just some wood
To be a couple
But not really
“I don’t know for how long”
“What do you think ?”
Anger builds
Pulse racing
Rejected again
Hurt within
Self doubt
Self hate
Noose tightening
Bitter tasting
Breath fading
Slowly wading
Questions pounding
Why why why
It never changes
Never fucking ever
Silence crushing
Company cutting
Glass piercing
Vein splitting
Crimson flowing
Bowl filling
Blood swimming
Obscene spewing
Nothing suprises me anymore
Strongest pain is just numb

We met, the first time
Me a beer, you a wine
Date went well, decided to leave
In front of the bar, tongues would not leave
Romance was our passion, so much it overflowed
So intertwined the first dates, not wanting to ever go
Weeks passed, our passion, pure desire
Questions raised, dousing our fire
Could we ever be together? let’s see how it goes
See what the future holds, I think we all know
Never really knowing each other, at least how we should
Just how it ending, our relationship misunderstood

.
Oh i fancy a cuppa
A nice cuppa tea
I need it to wake up
For me to be me
Dont take sugar no more
Sweet enough me
Mm a nice hot cup
To start the day really
Lounge back in the sofa
Knees up to my chest
Cup to my lips
You know the rest π

Can you keep a secret?Β
Any secret will do
What is your secret
Is it about you?
I see it now, observing you
I can see in your eyes
You did that, my god
You keep it well disguised
I am not here to judge
I will not judge at all
I will not tell another soul
Trust me and stand tall
Does it ever eat away?
Eat away inside
Do you ever tell yourself
That you cannot tell a lie?
I am sure you had a reason
A reason for it
If you ever need to talk
Even just a bit
I am here to listen
Listen to you
Tell me your secret
I’ll keep your secret too

Rhyming poetry to change your day
Once upon a time
This man he had to rhyme
He was a rather grumpy guy
And he did not like to lie
Spontaneous was he
Imaginative as can be
Sarcasm flooded him
Bursting from within
Moralistic fool
Certainly not cool
Principally strong
Hates being wrong
Such a stubborn fool
Bullied at school
Unpopular to the max
Will never look back

Sun is rising,Β Oh so hot
Sat here naked,Β Wondering what
To do with my day
Or should I just lay
Not a care in the world
The time can unfurl
To be free to be
What ever I want truly
No restraints
No complaints
No pain
No refrain
Liberation
Respiration
Play your life
Roll the dice

If we went back in time what would we change?
Do you have regrets for your life so strange?
Do you think it would matter one bit or two?
Stop doubting your choices, do what you have to do
