New work

I was such a fool

What were we for you ?

One year

Situationship

Sex friends

Yes, you’ve always been honest

But i cannot have feelings

I give you my heart

You run

And this time its for good ?

I loved being in your arms

Feeling wanted

Some people are just different

I knew it

But I hoped it could change

I was such a fool

New work

What do you think ?

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 ?”

New work

Strongest pain is just numb

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

New work

A relationship misunderstood

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

1. Rhyming poetry to change your day

Fate, or is it?

.

What do you think about fate?

What does it say to you?

Is it what’s meant to happen?

What life puts you through?
I ask myself the question

Then I say I’m gonna change it

Then I ask myself again

Has it changed or was it this?
I’m not happy in life

Was it meant to be?

It’s me who decides.

Am I sure? Am I free?
We are never really free in life

Choices to be made all the time

We are all just obedient cogs

Decided that we will tow the line

Rhyming poetry to change your day

New work

And say goodbye

You were always honest

I cannot complain

Right from the start

The rules were the same

Wanting and wishing

For a little bit more

To feel closer

To warm my core

We started so well

It felt so good

I just don’t know

What I understood

The passion was so raw

Our appetites strong

Just the honeymoon period

Stringing us along

The text messages

Every single day

You were my friend

Keeping my demons at bay

I felt so close to you

That there was a spark

Me be foolish

Following my heart

The distance always comes knocking

The silence lasts a day

Before it was not possible

Just wasn’t our way

We became just partners

Good for an hour

The moment always great

The afterwards sour

I tell myself we need to talk

Even if I’ll be sad

Because lying to ourselves

Will just be as bad

You arrange for us to meet

Our first date in two months

I feel happy again

I didn’t know it was a front

I go to kiss you

You seem a little off

We sit down talking

In the shade to cool off

You wouldn’t let me take a photo

You’re so beautiful in your dress

I thought your actions were off

Something to get off your chest

It’s been a while

And you don’t see any sparks

I listen to you

Fidgeting with the grass

We both had similar thoughts

And this time it’s the end

I was losing you

And a friend

We sat in silence

As I rip up the grass

Listening to music

As people walk past

I decide to leave

As we walk to the car

I kiss you on the cheek

And say goodbye

1. Rhyming poetry to change your day

Always one

Why is there always one ?

One who you cannot stand

Who gets underneath your skin

Eats away at you from within

You cannot lash out, it’s not correct!

Be the adult, it’s him the pest.

Resist resist, don’t bite you fool.

Be the bigger man, it’s all cool.

His arrogance and ego will get him.

He’ll do it all by himself.

But why is there always one?

Easy life never was any fun
