Kiara -
You drape on my bones,
like seaweed on the sea,
say salt loves water,
blow out all my pay,
then fly the territory,
what a terrible waste,
clinging to the foam,
guilt won't set you free,
leave something for hope,
it's a different age,
you've no fancy beliefs,
how come you hesitate,
won't dare to go alone,
follow distant dreams,
dance a path your own,
through any stupid pain,
could you always be,
trust the same again,
in yellow Spring.

Bring me a sweet sign,
in dark marine blue,
cover eyes as I alight,
not too near I moan,
in this place of virtue,
everything seems to glow,
help me sail the isles,
blow out all the fuses,
make a prayer of our lives,
I steer an even course,
dab a drop of sweet perfume,
temptation all I know,
say I'm your delight,
more than any other muse.
give you seconds to decide,
when we’re growing old,
I'll offer you good news,
even in times gone cold,
bells ring out the night,
my journey fires the truth,
grant me some more wine,
I'll never lie to you?

if you knew how to give,
you wouldn't need,
to find placeS to live,
can't accept any blame,
around your greed,
chasing women svery payday,
what about the kids,
with all their surly needs,
do they just go adrift,
golden lies can't negate,
their love of daddy,
why blow it all away,
hide your craven fibs,
you think just a wheeze,
to open any flit,
who will make you safe
when no loving creed,
who will make you great,
do you believe?

Whoever owns the night,
a wind shushed fog horn,
makes you wonder why,
he keeps a cheerful home,
somewhere to have form,
he's always on the go,
forget the bitter times,
all the truths forlorn,
rain, gloom, patricide,
dreams without a phone,
always there to storm,
the life he's postponed,
night air splashing by,
a page that is torn,
some waste all their lives,
others touch the stones,
kid themselves with Porn,
seek what they had before,
regret freedom passing by,
I nod and keep score,
say it's stupid to lie,
something has to fall.

Love you have to show,
dissolves gives way,
makes a fool of every bone,
is it just your need,
to circle the days,
with what won't let you see,
your garments worn,
like a drunken oblate's,
tells me all I know,
incense, flowers, creeds,
to dance on Island States,
is that all you feel,
with all that you've sown,
to keep only blame,
a head for a scarecrow.
buy a house by the sea,
find your owm space,
Spring's soon to be,
well I'll be blowed,
you'll come away Saturday,
bring whiskey I suppose,
I won't be paying.

This is really not me,
jelly for thoughts,
each day of uncertainty,
a useless mile from home,
cast adrift forlorn,
who wants to be alone,
make a fool of reason,
laugh when I'm caught,
howling at the seasons,
you’ll read this and moan,
make absences of my calls,
screaming down the phone,
banking on some creep,
wonder if I'm born,
awaiting the next scene,
you’ll raise the tone,
fear of being torn,
take me as I am,
remind me of the sea,
tell me there's no walls,
whoever dreams of empathy,
will never let me fall.

Desiree
let's Look at the moon,
a spring tide today,
everything turns to blue,
birds that have flown,
don't sing on their way,
how do we ever know,
my eyes are like fools,
wouldn't it be great,
to find somewhere new,
in this empty zone,
where no one reigns,
I've come to atone,
be someone not cruel,
but poised and sedate,
who is gentle and cool,
when a winter wind blows,
and emotion gets flayed,
dissolves in the snow,
I laugh like it's June,
roses shine my face,
said what I needed to,
asked for sweet grace.
