Walking Away

Walking Away 

 

When you are asked to turn around, 

But there is no common ground, 

Just keep walking, 

When you are asked to talk it out, All you do is shouting,  

What is the use in talking?  

When clouds are grey, Heavy above, 

Your shadow is the only one you can trust, 

Keep on walking, 

When life is not what it was, 

Finding it very tough, Hard to adjust, 

When you are all alone, 

Your heart is broken, 

Really broken, 

You are chocking, 

When you are going through hell, 

Hearing the toll of the bell, 

Just keep on walking, 

Walking away from yesterday, 

Heading to another day, 

Learning to live another way, 

On a chosen path, 

Yours to control to the last, 

Many cross roads along the way, 

To rest or delay, Until a decision is made, 

Just keep on walking, 

Walking

Lived

Lived 

 

I have lived with the Devil, 

The Devil has lived with me, 

Spell the word in reverse you will see what I mean, 

In the Valley of Life when things go wrong, 

You must find the strength to carry on, 

Time is short and goes so fast, 

A moment cannot be reversed, 

So make the most It the moment you have, 

You never know it might be your last. 

 

  

Lesson Learnt

Lesson Learnt 

 

I have learnt my lesson, 

The one you have given, 

The truth it hurt me, 

I learned my lesson after the session, 

It won’t happen again, 

As I walk away. 

Tears

Tears  

 

A billion rain drops fall from the sky, 

The same number that fall from my eyes, 

Crimson eyes behind the tides, 

As streams form as they flow, 

Grey days herald their call as rain drops start to fall, 

Days of drizzle as I weep, 

Thunder, Lightening as we speak, 

A deluge now around my feet. 

Rivers

Rivers  

 

Rivers flow from these crimson eyes, 

I cannot control the tides, 

Visions of you control my thoughts, 

I don’t know what to do, 

Tsunami waves come crashing down, 

Gone are my defences, 

Wearing me down, 

Water marks scar my heart repeatedly, 

Bleeding dry from my eyes, 

Will it be like this to the day I die? 

Betrayed by love, 

Why oh why, 

I am a decent guy, 

Is it that easy for you to say goodbye. 

Heart Break

Heart Break 

 

Tears flowing from crimson eyes, 

Cascading down caressing one’s cheeks, 

Crying forever with regret, 

Biting the lip to ease the pain, 

Trying to remain sane, 

Questioning doubt, 

Figuring out, 

What it all means, 

Choking throat, 

Turning tummy, 

Sometimes life is not funny, 

Afraid of losing you, 

Not sure what to do, 

Afraid to speak, 

In case it’s goodbye, 

Just hiding behind crimson eyes, 

Patiently waiting telling you what you are, 

You are special, 

You are beautiful, 

So in love with you I am, 

Watching, 

Wanting, 

Hopefully one day you will want me too, 

Hiding behind crimson eyes waiting as time subsides. 

 

 

 

Touching Emotions

Touching Emotions 

 

Walking the boulevard of broken dreams, Going through seven degrees of separation, 

I am a mess but I don’t want to get drunk again, I can’t let it go or hold back the river, 

Can’t imagine a world without you, Trying to lose you on the flume, 

Scars need to heal, Feeling incomplete, 

Wearing my best fake smile, Trying to get out while you can, 

Good riddance to me, Nice guys come last, 

I don’t want another love, Grow old with me, 

I will battle, I will chase rubies because I care, 

You can’t hideaway, Won’t allow a beautiful mistake, 

Let’s go back to when we were on fire and let the clocks go forward, 

I hear your heart, I see the sparks as I wait in line, I need the sun to break so I can see all of me, 

Angels contemplate my fate, You and I are just ordinary people, 

Everybody knows I can change so lay me down, You are safe with me, It’s not all about sex, 

You are a grade eight, One photograph of Tenerife Sea,

 So wake me up to make you feel my love, Everything you are I love, 

I’ve been to the city and sang with Ed, This is it, So give me love and kiss me, 

Don’t look back in anger I can fix you, Stop crying your eyes out for your heart will go on, 

Little by little build a wonder wall, So say something before we collide for I am feeling incomplete, 

Not looking for a perfect replacement, I won't go quietly, 

Let’s build a Lego house together for I will stand by you, 

I want to be your hero so take me to church so I can pray for two lives, 

So we can sing again.
