These waters groan,
they whisper your name,
our ship sails alone,
doesn’t know what to do,
a brilliant sail,
covers the crew,
can we ever atone,
what’s sought in our name,
especially at war,
how ungainly the ruin,
that brings us disgrace,
to face our ship now,
the love that has flown,
we study the waste,
in this troubled home,
the sea is lemon blue,
your face drained,
nothing more is new,
whatever has flown,
help us stay sane,
honour and blood,
we hold by the flame.

Memories of your face,
so eager to please,
the cool of your grace,
you recoil at my thunder,
my very conceit,
a man fixed on numbers,
they call me too late,
eager to squeeze,
the dreams where you lay,
a path uncluttered,
my insides heave,
you were never my lover,
who goes out one day,
while I’m asleep,
love falls away,
it makes you wonder,
rings, headstones, states,
who splits who asunder,
who, I hear you say,
you now smile easy,
never afraid ,
from what’s released

Brilliant bones
sculpture your frame,
Autumn’s in full flow,
you want to be free,
this is some game,
how to stay happy,
dance on the floor,
walk away from fame,
others will follow,
taste salt by the sea,
fools think it's a shame,
what you believe,
to love each home,
circle each day,
then ask where it goes,
stones and glass pieces,
drunken oblates,
sing with fat priests,
as if on the morrow,
no one shares blame,
you caw like a Crow,
into the rain.

He hails when you come by,
laughs and hums and kids
says what she says a lie
she keeps a cheerful home,
to do's on yellow lists,
always on the go,
her life starts to fry,
searching for what she's missed,
some waste all their lives,
others walk the stones,
searching for a kiss,
what they'd thrown before,
forget the bitter times,
the stuff she’s shipped,
bars, rain, days of tides,
dreams she can’t postpone,
always glad to see you,
happy that you called,
whoever owns the night,
and the stars like milk,
don’t have to ask why,
life with him has dipped

You live life by drops,
no poem or big sea,
green lights turn to stop,
words only grate,
about lousy gifts,
in green lies your fame,
latticed with coughs,
just a wheeze,
to show whose on top,
some child’s game,
around your greed,
you always find a way,
to let them know who's boss,
everyone squeezed,
like a kitchen cloth,
golden socks can't delay,
your fight over deeds,
the need to hold sway,
give it all to love,
you wouldn't need,
if you gave a toss,
but you won’t see.

His lips twist like knives,
he is not forgiving,
eyes scan the river high,
what else is new,
the wind bites when living,
our trips to secret venues,
my mother says stay wise,
he'll make you earn a living,
many a tortured night,
our love is never smooth,
I’m tobacco blonde and slipping,
maybe it's true,
maybe she's right,
skinned alive when sinning,
sunlight, water, sky,
he’ll want his revenue,
laughter's for the giving,
his eyes are bright blue,
nails me with that smile,
a glance docked by winning,
he dances in the tide,
is this my new beginning?
