Sam

A flower at your side, just some little token, held with great pride, ribbons in your hair, stuff that you know, never so clear, too silly to ask why, that early photograph, shows you can fly, forget all the hurt, a child’s memory provokes, outside of your care, wish heaven's cry, shrunken or coaxed, you’ve no need to cry, all that you share, is warm in your clothing, the weather’s fair, sing favourite lines, know that love's spoken, don’t have to try , know you’ve been chosen.

Reya Three

Chained to our days, will they ever forgive, the mess we made, best not to moan, or want to rescind, this life as a loan, we live in a haze, recovered from bliss, stuck together like cellophane, we’re not alone, to carry on like this, there's meat on our bones, live for today, we’ll make love a trip, more than a trade, welcome their stones, consider the shift, we’re going home, when someone says, we don't fit in, we’ll show them the way, what it is to give.

Reya Two

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.

Reya

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

Kwnny Four

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.

Kenny Three

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
