She’s just a little baby girl With little baby feelings So don’t worry that you’ll break her Little hearts are good at healing So play with it like it’s Play-Doh Squeeze and mould and poke Make her believe you care for her Then dash her little baby hopes.

There’s something about the words you say The way you insist I’ll be yours someday And nothing and no one can stand in your way Because my heart is your goal and you’re not here to play Something that makes me think that I’d be okay If you broke through the surface and somehow got your way.

Today you came around to see My little baby boy He stared into your eyes and laughed With unembarrassed joy You raised your face to meet my eyes As my son played with your tie And as the tears rolled down your cheeks I too began to cry We could never be together Fate has made it so So I ...

I always expect That there’s something more A brighter light A better show So I turned away As you watched me from the door And my eyes strained to find That something more Something so I’d feel Fulfilled at the core Someplace that exists Only in folklore Someone to crave And not try to ignore Though I could feel you ...

I just want to play here, in the sandbox of your mind Dig around with my plastic spade and delight in what I find Leap across the monkey bars till I feel like I can fly Travel on your train of thought asking “Why? Why? Why?” You surprise me with your riddles, delight me with your jokes Tell me of ...

Virgin hearts beat soundly They have nothing to fear Their owner’s vision is not blurry It’s untainted, all is clear They know their stance on right and wrong They know what’s good and bad The know what they will stand for And how to cope when they get sad But hearts that love beat faster They ricochet around They dance ...

You keep saying you don’t love me But then you give me hope And I’d rather burn within your fire Than waft away from you like smoke So even though it hurts so much Even though I’m scarred I keep serving up my heart to you Broken, bleeding, black and charred.

Don’t you worry You have to know You hold my heart You’ve made it grow And it will be yours For evermore Because you’re the one Whom I adore So don’t look on him With jealous eyes Know I’m immune To other guys Know I’m yours And yours alone My mind, my heart My flesh, my bone Know no one ...

I’m holding you while you cry for him And wanting you so bad Fruitlessly trying to soak up Everything that’s made you sad Wanting so much to hurt him For all he’s put you through Yet knowing he’s already won the fight For the better part of you.

They say you’re an ass, to forget you And I know they’re probably right But my heart can’t seem to see Your crime in black and white It’s searching for excuses To keep you in my life Plucking at sanguine moments Among years of mental strife I used to know what I would stand for I used to be so ...

All of these years later Though our lives have completely changed You still look at me the way you did Before we became estranged I’m standing in a crowd But I feel your eyes on me Staring with such intensity Though I don’t know what you see I haven’t become beautiful I’m not acting sweet But to you, I seem ...

You’ve fallen for a fairytale You think you know my kind But if you dig much deeper It’s not sunshine that you’ll find You want to peel me like an onion Strip me to my core Explore me like a mansion Open every door It’s true I’m many layered But every skin isn’t to your taste And I’m not the ...

It’s true, you may be the sun But know this, I have rays too It’s just that none can see them When blinded by the light of you Yes, my glow is subtle But it has its own character too So give me a chance to shine And I just may surprise you. Advertisements

I resolve not to love you Each day you don’t text But then you kiss so softly And I forget the rest You act so indifferent And say we can’t be more Then drop kisses on my body That ooze love from every pore You are sure to keep your distance To resist my little charms Then you beg me ...

Just me and the music, dancing together Tip-toeing and skipping, now light as a feather We’re waltzing and gliding and floating together Just me and the music, this moment, forever Now spinning and lifting, now leaping, now sliding Building and building, now dropping and diving Just me and the music, this melody of mine A rhythm so perfect, a rhythm to stop time.

Tonight I walk away with tear-filled eyes Because for 10 long years, I believed a lie I thought you were a different man And I was proud to hold your hand And travel with you to build a new world You’d beam with pride, say ‘That’s my girl’ But tonight those words took a different tone A tone that chilled ...

Sloth keeps me tied, glued to his bed Asleep in a pool of my own sweat Living through the lies that run through my head Wait long enough, you’ll find me dead. Greed means I’ll never be happy For you see, I will always want more More cars, more cash, more pretty things There is naught I will forego. Gluttony ...

I never liked men who look like you Like they always know just what to do Hair carefully styled with the latest goo Pants, shoes and shirt, shiny and new I like my men weird, and awkward too Quirky and lanky and witty and lewd I don’t want a square, I don’t want a prude I’d prefer someone who’s slightly ...

You tell me I look pretty And beam like it’s high praise But you don’t care for beauty If it lies behind the face For being lovely is a woman’s goal Looking pretty, that’s her role Well screw you, and society too For trying to keep my aspirations few Screw the accusatory fairness creams And the punishing waxing regimes Screw ...

You think I am your puppy dog To kiss and pet at will That I’ll listen when you tell me When to follow or be still You’re so wary with your compliments For fear you’ll say too much But when it comes to insults You don’t hesitate to cuss Often you’re so wicked I cannot help but cry Yet if ...
