Will he drop me now, make me drink more drink, sit up and say wow, if i should stand here, tell what he's thinking, maqybe something's there, his eyes a surly brown, they twitch at my blink, never on their own, the best of him appears, to drain sun’s sinking, should I disappear, like a bilbous bow, groans through the clinker, he freezes my horizon, don't need eyes of deer, let alone a shrink, to see what’s clear, love's always a trick.

Daisy

I walk without fear, down these broken roads, mother's words hush dear, wondering what I know, whose hand do i hold, which house is my home, that photograph there, it looks so alone, find a place for it here, hand to my heart now, seems made of stone, even my head feels closed, I had no idea, in shirt and belt low, why no one comes near, it's really no joke, more than being jealous, want to nurture my soul, without bying trouble.

Ciara

How does my hardness look, white face'd curled lips, sheets we carefully unhook, time hung out to dry, bars red wine to sip, geese flap in the sky, startled by a river's look, hear the sound of ships, Nana used salt to shook, cigarette papers we roll sly, cosy pictures in the skip, dappled maritime lines, our Ma's whose lives we took, making bath house trips, while I sat there cooked, are you happy on happy signs, do we continue to live in sin, fresh linen makes me cry, eyes open adrift.

Britney

My time goes by unspoken, afraid of family especially Da, our barns closed and broken, it doesn't take much memory, bent as a bell jar, to mark a sense of pity, depends which hand you hold, inside a smoky station bar, Poker leaves me cold, you run like a refugee, chase some foreign star, start with what's done to me, the days scatter and unfold, no one seems to care, or hear my silent roar, a crime is seen as comedy, they say buy a new car, let go and rest easy, love never travels far.

Alice

Ask can you love me, like a runaway horse, the way it whinnies, go back to sea I whisper, heard this tale before, you think I'm bothered, I won't wear weeds, without sorrow or remorse, if you’ll return to me, in this game of trespass, I am not your whore, journeyd on a golden vesell, nows my time to speak, bellow across marble floors, only the guilty plead, who is for the cloister, you must know the score, I'm not that blister, you pierce anymore.

Zoey

If its not too late, I’ll see it through, each evening by your gate, down fallen roads, my mother states be true, but she doesn't know, how your love makes waves, within our secret venue, smells of purple grapes, I’m lucky to condone, a place to secrete virtue, don't feel cast alone, in these lands of hate, you make me swoon, trust me to say, I melt beneath your bones, the garden's lemon blue, anything to postpone, this time of trouble.

Yola

Before you turned to me, carried me on your flight, I knew what was to be, who asked for that load, love you thought was right, I said bring it on , ships famed for their speed, dispense with sails at night, you were my every need, a sunlit garden at home, deceived beyond my sight, you left me dancing alone, those days swept aside, whole families heard me cry, seeing such a fool denied, removed from my cosy throne, shorn of all my rights, I stray strongly abroad, the siren in my smile.
