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 …..
I miss the sun dancing across my face
Kissing my eyes whilst standing a top a hill
I miss the ocean breeze caressing my hair
Whilst my toes are digging into the grains of sandy beaches
I miss the wind circling beneath my nostrils as the leaves of a thick wooded
Area release the perfumes of eucalyptus trees
I miss the fires built within bluestone circles
Omitting their heat to keep strangers warm
I miss sleeping beneath the stars with only the moonlight
To guide us in wooded areas amongst the tall trees
But most of all I miss thee
During this lockdown and unprecedented times we will slowly
Die.
I miss feeling alive…. đź’™
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
Here she goes again
Here she goes again oh oh oh
Falling swaying twirling oh oh oh oh
That sinking feeling oh oh oh oh
You’ve been there once before
You’ve been there once before
The pulling undertow
The pulling undertow
The crash and the burn
The crash and the burn
The nothing left to say
She’s left her body sways
The promises you made
The fabric as it frays
Just ashes on the floor
Go running for the door
Vacant eyes
Searching the room
The promises she made
A good thing she just blew
Here she goes again
Falling swaying twirling
That sinking feeling
You’ve been there once before
You’ve been there once before
Go running for the door
Go running for the door
Don’t want to
Don’t want to
Bleeding words forevermore
Don’t want to
Don’t want to
There
There she goes
Eyes roll back
The words she lacks
What shall I pen
On this whiteboard of life
The mistakes made or
The love of my life
The pain within
That tortures my soul
Deep in the black
Psychedelic hole
A conundrum of writings
Each a short story
I wish to not bore
Only excite you with flurry
Paint you a picture
Of colours and hues
Words to delight
Give you pleasure then blue
So why is the whiteboard
Still blank and snow white
Where is the rainbow
Cursive words to ignite
The pictures within you
To outstretch your hand
Reach for my fingers
Lift me up to your land
Of visions within you
Where my words will ring true
Resonate deep in
Your soul and heart through
But maybe I’m waiting
For you to go first
Words I will drink
With hunger and thirst
So this whiteboard remains
A blank masterpiece
Still waiting for you
Until then I will cease
I want to climb into your throat
Where the sound is
Where you gloat
I want to slide down your tube
To your lungs
Your heart your shoes
I want To get into your skin
Feel your sinews
Your bones your shins
I want to see through you
See your images
Your views your hues
But most of all
I want to be you
Your everything your genius you
So let me into your bubble
Your space your sky
Your vision your Hubble
No more planes trips to you
It’s time to extend me into your blue
I want to end this chain to you
This metal of hope
You’ve linked of glue
Time is but a blink of an eye
This awakening of hope
Was just a lie
Oh dreaded night
You are upon me
So quick you come
But linger on
No sleep for me
I count and bleed
From every wound
Internally doomed
Opened the chest
Below my breast
Your silver key
Was the master three
Your arms are holding her
As she lies lifeless and still
Looking down at her eyelids
Where moments before there was thrill
Red warm sticky substance
Spills from an open wound
Staining her silk scarf
Now totally ruined
Laughing and joking as you both
Leave the theatre
Was only two weeks ago
You promised eachother
To have and to hold
Until death do you part
Wiping the tears
As her spirit departs
You look up to see
the silver sedan
But through your anguish
A memory is harpin
An angry female driver
Is standing by her door
A flash of recognition
Like never before
Why did you leave me
For her she shrilled
You could’ve stopped this
I wouldn’t have killed
You look down at your love
A quote you remember
Hell hath no fury
You remember last September
The woman looking at you
Is thin and withdrawn
The woman you hold
Her glow is now gone
Her breast does not heave
Like once before
Blue and red lights
Flashing are now before
As you stand your head swims
A ball is forming in your gut
Now you heave
You scream at the lady
But no voice leaves
The uniformed men
Cuff her as she reefs
You want her dead
You run towards
A uniformed man stops
You wish you had a sword
Back to the body lying
On the ground
You shake and shudder
Suddenly a faraway sound
Wake up martin
You will be late
Jumping out of bed
Thanking God her fate
Is to still be alive and
Ever so beautiful
You kiss her good morning and
Move to the window
Look out at the sun
And slide open the glass
Outside is a silver car
Still and parked
Ghost words of the imaginings
