Time to go?

Heartbeat thumping
Pulse slowing
Mind numbing
Is this the time I'm going?

...

At least I'll know
what all the fuss was about
God/no God and so and so
Now there will be no doubt

I guess I hope it's all untrue
because I don't think I'll be rising
Get my deserved due
After all, it's only a sodding interview

Words

1.Just Browsing

 

I was wondering and I figured

I probably wasn’t the first to wonder

So I thought I’d see what

The Global community had to say

Opened my favourite browser and typed

“Should Porn be Illegal?” then hit Enter

 

“Did you mean Popcorn?”

Popcorn?   No, I bloody well didn’t

That’s three letters I’d have to have missed out

Anyway, Cinema-goers, relax, d...

Flying

1) Flying

I was looking at the blue, blue sky
Not a cloud to be seen
Just the straight white lines
of the airstream of the planes overhead

If I was a pilot I would zig-zag a bit
Pretend I was on a ski-slope
doing the slalom
avoiding the cones

Then that would be fun
watching from below
Wondering why he was going
left to right. Missiles, comets, who knows what

But staring at...

Daughters

1.Daughters

 

What is it with Daughters?

They’re such a pain

Even when they were little

They kept interrupting my sleep

They’re such a pain

 

Why can’t Daughters be like cars?

When you get fed up of them

You can trade them in for something else

Or, maybe recover a little bit of cash

They’re such a pain

 

Come to think of it, they are like cars

Smell fun...

Poles apart and fun

1.Back to Back

 

In the still of the night

Lying in bed, back to back

You are facing West

And I am facing East

 

All the years together

Kids grown up and gone away

Together still in mind and heart

But lying here poles apart

 

Memories of when we’d face each other

Recount the day, share our thoughts

When did we become just good friends

Lying here like si...

1.Happy Rhymes

 

Nearly two years now

Time has passed so fast

Should be more clear-headed

You should be in my past

 

But all that surrounds me

Makes me ponder…think some more

Realise that I still love you

Wish I could re-open that door

 

The smallest things surprise me

Bring you to the front of my mind

Swamping me with unwanted emotions

Rendering me tem...
