But I’m supposed to come back, aren’t I? I’m supposed to forget all about it Next time, you can whisper the venom You don’t need to shout it Because I can feel it sting before it rings And nowadays I just allow it But today I’ve switched my phone off I can get by without [...]

You slept through the rain Sun’s out for you again Like you trained God To cry for your parade But the party always ends Left with the greenest beds Just careful where you tread Cos the soil is soft And it’ll swallow to your head It’s not like I sat at the window Praying to [...]

I was putting effort in For a while there But it slipped again Got so much going on That the days just blend This to do and that to do A million texts to send I go to reply And I’m just filled with dread Can’t remember what’s Going on Or what was last said [...]

I don’t - I don’t find it easy without you Actually I find it excruciating I sit umming and ahhing  And ruminating But the sun comes up, you’re still gone And it’s devastating I thought you only dance for me But tonight your feet are levitating Clipping and clopping and clapping For others without hesitating [...]

Don’t hate! Unless it’s the group We oppose today.  Don’t judge! Unless it’s the person Deserving.  Don’t support! Unless they’ve explicitly Told us they’re good - and we must believe these words... Even though we out throw The vows of someone we deem as worst.  And in five minutes our hive mind will shift; We’ll [...]

Sorry, what was the point you were making? The one before the synergy started breaking? Because I swear I knew it was gonna be earthquaking But you shut your lips before it slipped There’s no mistaking Seemed a while your tongue had been baking Up this hard hitter, teeth chattered, shattered and shaking All these [...]

They are just flesh and anonymity Bones that structure but don’t poke I stared into the open space  Not at his face as he spoke I ain’t pulled or drawn or captivated By any skin that ain’t your shade I don’t need to pluck off because I don’t give Opportunity for other hands to get [...]
