female (Remove filter)
I couldn't think of another stanza
curled on a velvet chair
in a darkening room
is a monstorous teen.
outside the blackening,
is a fading pink sky.
the clouds within whisper to shepards,
"Delighted I Hope"
and on the highest grassy hills,
the shepards face eternity.

Stairs
I've known many stairs
Rising to strange places
Where joy roams free
A blur of female faces
Stairs can feel unreal
From drink and hurry
Chasing hot rump in a
Scented hectic flurry
Drink risks a frisson
Tumbling down stairs
Scrambles your wits
Impedes your affairs
Some boast a bend
Others climb straight
Either route is urgent
Desire will n...

The man and the sea - Part 1: The Stranding
After the ship broke
the man found himself in the middle of the sea
drifting into the unknown in the dark
clinging to a piece of tree
the man is physically strong, he needs to be
cause his mindset is weak
and now that no one can see
he lets out a tiny weep
by daylight, the man spots land on the horizon
he heads off and crawls
but she, the sea, won’t let him ...

'Listening to Elvis, thinking it over'
I wish I knew what to say
I look for words
But they just escape me
I look for a sign, everyday
But the faith I feel, it fades away
Set the alarm, wake up and keep on going
But all the while, my tears are flowing
What about the love and joy that I felt in my heart?
Please don’t tell me we’re destined to depart?
Elvis’ dulcet tones, makes its way right ...

FIRST LOVE
I would be lying if i say I didn’t miss you
Because deep inside i know i did
You were the love of my live
But soon I realised it was best to let you go
Pain was piercing my soul with each passing day
And it was time for me to say my last goodbyes to you
It’s been two years and
Life has been good lately no pain no sorrow
But deep inside the thought of you st...

Goddess
My face may not have symmetry
My skin may have spots
My belly may roll and wobble
My thighs may touch... a lot
Petals do not have symmetry
Mountains may have spots
The ocean may roll and wobble
The clouds they touch... a lot
I see the beauty of nature
Everytime I look at me
I was handcrafted by goddesses
As is everything I see

Tears
They trickle down ebbing the pain of bygone days..
They celebrate joyous times fervidly
Silent spectators, intensely flowing with craze..
They best know my soul and captures it so vividly ..

Fool's game
Fuck it, I will let myself fall
I'll allow my stupid heart to get broken
Hopefully you're worth it
If you're not, then perhaps I deserve it.
You could be everything
You could be nothing
You could be the highest of highs or the most epic of lows
You could be my ebb, you could be my flow
You could be just one night
You could be the love of my life!
You could b...

New love
My darling, sorry for the delayed reaction
but this time I feel it, electric attraction
Most days you're literally all I think of
somebody save me, for you I am odd
Tell myself I will take it slow
that just ain't my style though
Whenever we say goodbye
I instantly dream all about the next time
You are fascinating, liberating, you're so intoxicating.

4AM
Lets talk and talk some more on your living room floor,
delibarating til' the clock hits four
Sweet tobacco scent,
your soul is up for rent
Our birthdays they fall in the same week,
I can feel the signs in the way you speak
I told you I'm crazy,
you told me you liked it
I knew you weren't lying.

Abolish anger (it's a wasted emotion)
So much beauty
so much anger
so much comfort
so much danger
so much hate
so much love
so much push
so much shove
so much warmth
so much cold
so very young
so very old
so much intelligence
so much ignorance
so much despair
so much bliss
I can feel it in your punch but I'd rather it a kiss.

This heart
Where the hell are you?
I've been waiting for what seems like my whole life
I can't get it out of my head
I thought by now I'd be someone's wife.
Nothing turned out how I thought it would
Is it for the best, for the greater good?
Why is the heart such a fragile thing?
With every rejection I feel the sting.
I look in the mirror but it ain't me looking back

My love
My love, I let you down
I promised I'd be there but started to drown
My love, I was in over my head
Why did we pass ships at night as we climbed into bed
My love, the only love for me
I just want to say sorry, I am so fucking sorry
My love, I see your face everywhere
There's not one other face that could compare
My love, my beautiful friend
You were ...

Not one for the guys
Sometimes it bugs me
to have to chain up my chest
to keep it under control
And a few days each month
I’m afraid to stand up
for fear of disaster below
The price to pay for having a way
to make two little humans
and call them my own
One of whom
will make the same complaints
once she is fully grown.

The Forest Glade
I saw her stand
exposed and timid
nervous, shivering
in the leafy sun
a dappled beauty
suddenly shy
I saw him stand
proud and sure
brash, potent
in the cool shade
a young pretender
suddenly hesitant
I heard them come
angry and loud
fast, rushing
through the heat
the older lads
suddenly here
I saw his doubt
alone and fearful

Blue Movie
It's better when I write things down,
I can be more meticulous.
Then I remember you called me a child and said I was ridiculous.
Perhaps you shouldn't have made yourself so inconspicuous,
it could be said that we would not have got into 'this'.
You picked at the conversation and I gave my participation.
I rather wish I hadn't for now I'm left anticipating.
Did the Indian Ocean pi...
