but not exist…

Do I exist?

My love for you
Stay in my arms forever and a day
Never leave me, never go away
Melt away, breathe my air
Closer now, I can smell your hair
Kiss me with your soft velvet lips
Closer to me with those goddess hips
Lose ourselves in our lovers embrace
Caressing your cheek, your pretty face
I stare into your beautiful eyes
Your crystal gaze leaves me hypnotized
Forever in your magnetic pull
Your skin so soft just like wool
Your beauty makes me want to melt away
My love for you now and every day

Beautiful moon
Why would you watch me?
I know you better than most
Although everyone gazes at you
I will not be thrown
We have had many a moment
Just you and I
Your beauty overwhelms me
Brings tears to my eyes
You can be blinding
As you light the path ahead
There is nowhere else to be
Nowhere else instead
As the stars vie for your attention
Flashing bright and true
You stare right through them
As constantly you do
Will you love me forever?
If I never look away
Tell me you’ll never leave me
And that you’ll always stay

Poem from my latest love poetry book searching for you
We hardly kiss goodbye
Talk to me softly
I can’t remember the last time
We had an intimate moment
Or shared a bottle of wine
To smile and laugh together
To hang on each other’s word
All this wanting
May seem to be absurd
We just need a little attention
To spark the match again
To go back to like before
When we were still friends
But all that being lost now
As we hardly kiss goodbye
All the time thinking
Why it is like this? Why?

Love has lost
As we yearn for love
In every thought
We await perfection
To a point distraught
As we wait and wait
Time goes by
We lie to ourselves
And time does fly
Age encroaching
That ticking clock
Love evading
Until it stops
Will it be found
If we look too much
Life has passed
Love has lost

I’m your daddy
I’ve had the text from your mum
In two hours ends the fun
I’m doing the washing up
Thinking surely too much
Starting to regret and punish myself
I imagine it’s not good for my health
You’ve been with us for twelve days
You’re going through a phase
It seems you’ve been punishing us
Fits, tantrums, sulks and stuff
Whatever your six year old mind can find
What are you going to do this time?
It’s been so difficult looking after you
Not always knowing what to do.
With the baby here it’s been a big change
For you it has to be a little bit strange
We talk to you often, try to explain
You rolling your eyes, us explaining in vein
I want us to get along, all together
But you change your mind just like the weather
I ask myself what can I do?
What is needed to help you?
Although it’s difficult and you can make me sad.
I’ll always love you cause I’ll always be your dad

Life sucks
When you’ve had a bad day
You wonder which way
To go in your life
Argued with the wife
Your kids hate you
It’s their point of view
That nothing is good enough
That’s the way it is. Tough!
Your job sucks like a wormhole
You don’t like your boss, arsehole!
You can’t find another job
Cause you’re a lazy slob
Bills just don’t stop coming in
Overdraft and credit cards sinned
Your car has broken down
Your face starting to frown
Your phone is almost flat
Forgot to charge, what a twat.
That’s it, decided to quit?
Look at yourself, stop being a dick

Addiction
I need it
I need my fix
I need my buzz
I need my cigarettes
I need my love
I need one more drink
I need to play one more time
I need my Facebook
I need my Twitter
I need to post one more time
I need that hit
I need that thing
I need to gamble
I need to spend
I need sex
I need to be abused
I need him
I need her
I need life
I need death
I need
I need
I neeeeeeeeeeeddd.

I will remember him
I watched him pulling up in his expensive car
I had seen him driving slow from afar
I offered to clean, with my water and rag
The window opened and there was a young lad
He had a toy tractor, yellow and green
This amazing toy my eyes had never seen
He let me play with it for a second or two
He smiled at me, then offered it too
I was so happy, by this boy’s geste
I searched my affairs with behest
I shared a sweet that mother had made
He ate with me, it made my day
The car drove off, he waved goodbye
I will remember him, till the day I die
.
My boss I hate you
Boss, we’ve all got one
Many of us are under the thumb
Let’s start with all the different types
Thoughtful, kind and sometimes nice
Controlling, demanding, asking a lot
Stressful, arrogant, losing the plot
It’s us doing the hours, working all day
While you’re chilling out, getting your pay
What do you actually do? I’ve not had my break!
Sitting there you, chilled, you great big mistake!
Look at all the work I have done for you
Thanks guy, I’ll pass it for mine, that’s true
There is one thing that I’d like to say to you….
You’re an arsehole, I quit, FUCK YOU
