i made to wake up / the bed just held me back more / warm, smooth, pillows soft
Have you ever watched / a moth dies lowly at flame / it's wings dusted, gone?
How sweetly sounds dawn / lone birds, new wind blowing fresh / the pink sky awaits
Three things now war / my heart, head and hands / think, feel or do
My heart sings steady / songs of love and loss / complex melody
Just realising / how much time I spend on tweets / this cannot be good
my finger print stays / on every heart I've yet touched / my mark on your life
heartbeats at my heart / my hand touches yours over mine / lovers intertwined
graying skies / clouds heavy with promise / autumn showers
so I touched the sun / but the heat could not compare / to passion's hot flames
red rimmed eyes, broken / vessels mimicking a heart / when lovers quarrel
left on the corner / I sneak one last look at you / an easy goodbye?
awake in my mind / where thoughts of you wreak havoc / hate being alone
The gross injustice / bitter and requited / a harsh way to love
In my life you were / pre-configured and featured / destiny was wrong
Staring at the phone / was never a healthy thing / I slept in your shirt
I hurt my knee today / my evil trainer pushed me / 12 kmph
Deusional man / looks in the mirror, sees me / I'm not in your life
Fulvous butterfly / against a whitewashed wall / cannot hope to hide
See the milkyway? / lighting up the clear night sky / quiet moon looks on
you know that colour? / Green after morning showers / your eyes haunting me
midnight fog rolls in / at your stone; heatbroken, lost / you left us too soon
i'd catch a grenade? / too real in northern kenya / ture test of his love
My closed, quiet mind / buffering me from the world / desert Island style
I could be like that / solid tree, quivering leaf / fragile, stubborn, strength
Thrilling, fleeting life / cross the road. Dare the machine / my mortality
oh but it mattered / every subtle sideways look / clues that help me see
there was more to her / her grand destiny unfurled / i watched as she grew
here I am, undone / breathless at your side, unspun / all laid out for you
my sisyphean / lifestyle, finally broke me / rolling down once more
callipygian? / don't be so put out my dear / stares make life more fun!
pain-ed existence / has made stiff my youthful back / pray, take weight from me
the boys of Boyce make / connections from their music / boundaries desolve
the heat in mombasa / sticky, enveloping heat / wrapped all around me
cloudless windy day / so easily swept away / lost in natures peace
