Games

"We'll play until we lose."

We’ll play cards together,Until the bad man comesWhy don’t we slip into the moon?Does it still feel so soon?Hear a knock on the doorIt’s only the fairy I called upon,In a blue haze.A wish was promised to meTo drift out...

Love is Vein

"Love isn't skin deep."

I can see your ribs baby, can you see mine?Skinny together from the beginning of time,Sunlight between your thighsTrue love doesn’t deal in power, corruption and lies. Sitting with you,I have never felt more alone.The world can stay away,We breathe...

Cemetery Gates

"Dance, Dance like it's your last chance."

The devil comes knocking at my door, Asking me to dance.Let's go dancing in the cemetery,Like we did in days past. Stumbling out of the front door Hand in hand we waltz down to the gates, A soft kiss; planted...

Follow me to the swimming poolYou will be mineBeneath and aboveDrown in our own love Swim through lanesFly through meLook and seeThe moon shines on my side In carsWe can ride to the starsIt’s only upHow hard can it be?...

A glance

"A lover pines for his girl to talk to him, or even look at him"

A glance, even a reluctant one Cast my way,  How long has that been? Seconds slide inexorably along Like hours and days. Many look at me and  Their eyes pierce holes in me, Burning and scalding. Can't they ignore me?...

Genesis

"Love’s moment of creation"

Plucked from her branch, perfect apple sweet, In the heart of his own paradise. Her centre a havoc of lustful heat. His voice a litany of vice. The act forbidden, her body unsung, As his teeth broke her porcelain skin....

I am so full of lovebut tonight my soul aches.It is twisted and contorted,tied up in boy scout knots.My love for him is a force of nature. The moons of our galaxies causing a gravitational pullnever meant to be understood.Holidays...

One Step…

"It has always been her my girl with curls"

One step.... That is what I tell myself everyday A new lease on life  To laugh with her To hold her Somedays it seems so far away One step... Closer to her Smile keep your chin up Don't let the...
