Don’t look at me Avert your eyes Lest the rain pour out Of my greying skies There’s nothing to see here But the pain I feel The hurt and heartache A horrific Bastille I’ve never known Such a pain as this My heart’s been raped In a dark abyss I’m changed forever These scars won’t heal And you’ll never understand What you’ve made me feel.

She’s swinging to the music Flourishes her crimson mane A long chain swings round her neck I want to know her name She’s beautiful That’s for sure And she doesn’t even care A tiny smile plays on her lips I cannot help but stare Her eyes are closed; she’s dancing She’s just having fun But even as I watch her ...

I’m standing in line to kiss you You’re making me wait my turn But I’m not used to loving Girls I have to earn Somehow you make it worth it There’s something in your smile So I suppose I can keep waiting For a longer while.

You punish me for not loving you You tear me down with things you do You cut me up with words you don’t say And the hurt that you hide each and every day You torture me with the pain you feel And hopes you know could never be real You kill me every time you pause And force me ...

Couldn’t you tell you loved him? Why’d you hold onto me? You made the heartbreak harder Than it had to be You tried to go on loving me When you’d given your heart away You tried to ignore the feelings That had led that heart astray There was naught that I could do Nothing I could say You promised not ...

There’s a feeling that creeps up on me In the early hours of the morn A quiet kind of discontent Like a dying phoenix song And though I try to quash it Eerily it stays Dampening my feelings Whispering for change It hints that something’s missing I am yet unfulfilled There’s unspent passion to be realised And fast, before it’s ...

I broke the beautiful storyline Created by my romantic mind I decided to love him And showed him so I peeked and blushed Like I wanted more You laughed to yourself For he was your best friend And it seemed my attention Would never end You knew my secret Or so you thought And you knew I knew That I’d ...

I think I’ve met my next mistake Predictably dressed in blackI ought to keep my head about me But the fucking feelings are back And this one’s got a bodyThat’s sculpted like a beast And moves like he’s got rollersInstalled inside his feet He’s bold, dirty, cheekyBut also kind of kindAnd frankly, he’s a treatTo my body and my mind So, welcome fucking feelingsI guess I’ll ...

There’s a hole in my head Though my heart is full And it overflows under my eyelids Even as my face is still I’m terrified because I love you And I never want to let you go But you bring me such heartache I have never felt so low Why would you hurt me In this way again? Why would ...

My thoughts, they chase each otherPassing batons in my brainVying for attention, driving me insaneThey jostle in my headspaceTheir knees and elbows pokeThey dart around like hummingbirdsOr marinate and soakThey make my breathing quickerThey make my stomach churnThey make me yearn for freedomBut my brain will never learn.

I’m all sobbed out, I’m broken I’ve never felt like this before Then I look up and see you Standing, staring, at the door You cross the room in two strides And collect me in your arms Hug and hold me close to you Say I’m safe from any harm You rock me like a child Whisper in my ear ...

You swept me up in your magic Your quirks, your mystery Blindfolded, you led me on With practiced sensuality Till I believed I loved you And that you loved me too But it was all just smoke and shadows And soon you had vanished too.

A woman is not a vesselInto which to spill your seedNot a soulless tool to feed youTo meet your body’s greedA woman is not a cupFrom which you can freely drinkNot a puppet or a playthingTo entertain your winkA woman is no mere paintingNo unfeeling work of artHer body is no sculptureTo excite a hungry heartShe isn’t one of her ...

You said I am like Aysha I said ‘No, that’s not true’ So you quoted from the passage And said ‘She sounds just like you’ ‘She’s small and she’s lively Always grinning to her ears And even though she’s playful Aysha’s wise beyond her years’ And so I read the story I read of Jack and of his beau Of ...

They tell me you’re not mine But I know that that’s not true You’ll always be my daughter Because my heart belongs to you They say they’ll take you from me How could they be so cruel They don’t know a mother’s love You’re the spark and I’m the fuel Perhaps it’s true I stole you But I also brought ...

You’re such an expressive loverWith you, there is no ruseSomething stirs inside youThere’s an energy that brewsIt flows through your bodyIt slips out in your wordsI hear it in your laughLike a dozen singing birdsEven when you’re seriousIt flashes in your eyeAnd if I listen closelyI can hear it in your sighOh, I wanted so much to melt youBecause you’ve ...

You tease me with the lightest touch But I want so much more Because even that feather touch Shakes me to the core You look at me a moment But I yearn to hold your gaze Drown inside your pupils I could stare at you for days You give me a casual nod Say it’s nice to see me too ...

You just want somebody To fit into your master plan You just want somebody Willing to hold your hand So you say you love me Though you don’t know why you do Cos you don’t love me for me You love me for you Tick tock, your time is running out You’ve got to find her fast Got to find ...

I’m a sucker in love Though I never thought that I’d be The type to hold on To feel tied when I’m free I want to betray you As you betrayed me But I’m a sucker in love And I don’t want to be free.

To see you smileI’d let you goBecause it’s crystal clearYou love him soSo I’ll gladly do itI’ll trade my smileTo watch yours light upAnd glow awhileSo go on, join himRun to his sideAnd if he makes you cryI’ll stay till the tears have driedI’ll cherish the chanceTo hold you closeStroke your hair as you cryAnd blow your noseThen I’ll watch ...
