Honey
That year was no symphony,
always some reason,
my partner fell out with me,
a photographer of the dead,
unashamed functional streams,
wants to give it a rest,
all our could have been's,
are dazzled by the sea,
radiotherapy changes everything,
I always failed the test,
difficult to find productivity,
when other lies have spread,
no poets gets immunity,
or can rage about midstream,
when it's time to pee,
laughter comes not too deep,
heaven is ice cream,
lipstick, perfumed busy as a bee,
praying for peace.

Don't ever go wrong,
she carries yellow lists,
searches rooms for one down,
your heart inside your bones,
chained against her fits,
places she won't go,
you might spend a ton,
or need a ship,
be prepared to hack it home,
not what she proposes,
nor whom she enlists,
even if it comes to blows,
knowledge always sits alone,
rain lashes down in fits,
across frightening horizons,
she regulates like a metronome,
in this house of whispers,
storms carry her along,
make it swift.

What is there in probate,
that makes you weep,
care what toll it takes,
makes you ask why,
what fashions that belief,
you can't shake the sky,
factions here approximate,
take your shy Tweets,
as license to fornicate,
anyone can make you cry,
they all act so cheap,
a few pennies on the side,
your forbidden gains,
counting even in their sleep,
they leave you nothing,
don't bleat, shout, berate,
swoon before the Brief,
remember just how to create,
that explosive streak.

When you dance you moan,
there is a better you,
but you are not alone,
a soul by railway lines,
feeling blue,
is nothing to this time,
cold in your bones,
floating in a life Perdu ,
you are a ship that groans,
tut as the clock decries,
eyes sailing on inner feuds,
you can cross the line,
love will help you atone,
ask what you want to do,
when it comes to condone,
stash your ticket and iphone,
you are beyond this queue,
cast away easy from home,
explore your virtue.

Sometimes life's a pain,
especially from the inside,
people who you cannot face,
nothing in your eyes to own,
but an uneasy lie,
your lips like stone,
true to a love restrained,
feel your cheeks rise,
battered by the falling rain,
a woman of hope and bone,
she beat out her time,
didn’t ask you for more,
where she once jumped Bail,
found places safe to hide,
nothing kept her in jail,
now isn't the place,
to ask the reason why,
you act with such disgrace,
makes you want to die.

She worries about her years,
and wonders about her sleep,
certain steps could bring tears,
they say she feels alone,
but know she's not cheap,
dreams of coming home,
every prayer masks her fears,
raised each night to release,
the bar makes things clear,
terrible singers hard tones,
clinging to each night's conceit,
doesn't make her a crone,
when morning clouds sheer,
there's a need to keep,
the bedroom closed on snores,
her bath runs like a weir,
a holy place that keeps,
a strong heart beat,
everything's so dear.

Go on watch me pray,
i never got Baptised,
do you know what to say,
that love makes us fools,
can see it in your eyes,
what it does to you,
you lie around all day,
hear me praise the sky,
talk of picking up a wage,
dark glasses a cool blue,
dressing up's your high,
what you know is true,
why you force the pace,
nothing easy in your life,
a paramour always late,
life is just one race,
God never hides,
face your demons face,
let me enjoy the tide.
