I forgive you
But why should I care
When I have
Nothing left to spare
Nor would I even dare
You are leaving
With no remorse or despair
Are there words to change your mind
Or your cold stare
I’m broken up inside
Feeling pain I just can’t hide
In a moment you are gone
Just like this sad sad song
I’ll forgive you
If we give it one more try
I promise not to cry
And leave it there
Will you hold me
Say we will be fine
Words that will not rhyme
As you close the door behind you
One last time …..
But the change is here
New laws and boundaries
The change is near
Riots and destruction
Unfolding everywhere
Pickets and signs
Long unbrushed hair
Don’t look them in the eye
Please don’t you dare
They’ll hurt you command you
Kill you if you care
Nothing’s achieved by paying those men
To destroy others property
What now what then
I’m here to tell you
You’ll be found out I’m sure
The anger the hatred
The violence you lured
You cannot break LOVE
Scared to swim
Conquer fear you say
I tried I cried I sighed
I’ve been down this road
I can’t I want to heave
I’m faced with your image
Your face your scent your glow
How much do you know
You’re grooming me
I don’t understand I can’t think
I’m frozen my feet in concrete
The top of a cliff at the edge
My heart races my insides dread
What ifs buts and dead
Take my hand we’ll do it together
Your knowing eyes smiling
Should’ve seen the red glow
On the count of three
You promised me
A better life
I cannot see
through these tears
Wind stroking trees
I left he
To a promised new
Now there’s just me
You’re gone
And no we
*the grass is greener
The sun shone today
I didn’t know it
The birds singing in the trees
I didn’t hear
People walked past and smiled
I couldn’t see
The music played on the radio
I didn’t sing
My stomach churned
I couldn’t eat
The children scream with laughter
I wouldn’t smile
I look at the sky
So Blue the Hue
You are gone
The light has dimmed
The signs are gone
*Some things you can’t explain
Eyes heavy
Brain hurts
Arms sore
You are my curse
Pain in back
Shoulders forward
Spring in my step
My lost fortune
Deaf I’ve become
Lost my tongue
Praises for me
Left unsung
Ankles rolled
My arms fold
Tired and heavy
My story untold
I LOVED YOU BEFORE
I will LOVE YOU NOW
I WILL LOVE YOU IN THE MORROW
Your smile and eyes look upwards
Your gaze upon my shoulders
I wish you would look at me
And not think of another
Glass shatters
That faraway sound
Ice in my veins
Your heart she took
Whilst mine is shattered
In sharp pieces
Amongst my feet
I will glue it again and again
Put it together for in my bed
You lie every night
This heart of mine
Is together tonight
Ghost words of the imaginings
