You not Me

(15th September 2012)
 
It's YOU!
COME!
TO!
MEEE!!
Cos I like, I need what I see.
Ohh ...
He is there with you now
To obstruct,
In the way,
There to fuck
You, not me ...

You Are Here

(late summer, 2011)

The sun may shine all day
The rain can fall
Wind may blow wild through the hills

That's OK

Frost can form
Muddy tides can slide down
Even the open earth could be
I will not worry
Cos you, YOU are here with me

Year of Void

(Wednesday 24th June 2009, early evening)
 
Would anyone like ....
to Join Me here?
In my Year of Void

Yes, will be empty
Your life will stop
Like mine

But hey,
It's not SO hard
We will endure together
And fight through

But
The point is ....
I NEED YOU!

Words

(25th March 2012)
 
Words are like beautiful flowers,
If you give them love and encouragement, they will reward you.
Words are stubborn,
You just can't get them right.
Words are for me stories,
They have a beginning, an end,
And in the middle some detail,
But you never know
Until the last letter.

If you look after words,
They will bloom and flower
And give great joy and pleasure.
Everyone will see,
Everybody too will want words like yours.

But if you are angry,
Words can bring fire,
And spit in the faces of those who abuse them.
You can never win a war with words.

It is hard to know another life,
To experience life without the joy of words.
They give us so much:
Great plays, writers of fame, songs to die for.
We would not have these without words.

So next time,
When next you war with your words,
Just remember where you came from,
And what you want to be.
Words will give all you need,
A love of words is a life with words,
And all that they bring to you will be a pleasure,
Not just today, but now and forever.
Words will be your guide,
And expression your salvation,
And ONLY with words,
Will you finally find what you seek.

Without You


I had a good time tonight
It could have been with you
It should have been with you
But you weren't here

What did you do tonight?
Did you stay in?
Did you fight with your mother (again)?
Did you go out?
I thought of you tonight

It's not so easy
Being with you
Being without you
I can't be either just now
But 'without' is how it shall be

For I can't forget
This time last week
What you did
What you said
What you thought
The memory is so bitter of you

I enjoyed tonight without you
Yes I did
It was possible
And I did it
And I know I can do it again
And I can get over you

They asked me about next year
And I told them
And I said, "Don't be so sure"
That's the way it is for me
To be without you
There is nothing here

What can you do for me?
I think nothing now
I see nothing now
I don't want anything now
From you

It feels good
I can have socks with holes
I can do what I want
I can be myself
And you can't complain
About anything

I thought of that song today
"Something Happened On The Way To Heaven"
And it did
And it has
And it's done
So what now?

Am I in Hell?
Because of this
Because of you
And all you said
I think not
But it's close

Wish You Were Here

(end February, 2012)
 
Wish you were here
And my bed was made with you in it
Wish I could see you
And touch you, taste your sweet face again
Wish I could hear you
Your sweet voice like angel's wings beating
Want to, NEED to
But OH ....
So far all this is from me
I only wish it could be ....
A reality

Will You, Will We

(early February 2005)

Will you
get the bus tonight?
Will you
make it here alright?
Will you
lose your mind tonight?

You might

Oh

So

Will we
get it right tonight?
Will we
have an awful fight?
Will it
be a nasty sight?

It might

Oh dear

Well

Do you
understand what's right?
Do you
think we'll see the light?
Do you
think this is all that right?

I don't

Ah

So

Have we
time to talk tonight?
Have you
had a chance to write?
Have I
had enough of fight?

I have
