‘A hot song on your palm’-Evan Jones

Separate ships?

Waiting for the tide to go out

Some Mountain summit

More flower and a choir of you

The warm glow of gold

Give me yellow eyes

The sea epiphany 

Africa,to be jewelled with water

Watched and drowned

The sky,the sea,the eyes of you

A heavenly blue

French stick of heaven

A smile of thankfulness

Friendship ,Virtue,Fate

Shiney conkers

Painted orange for pumpkins

Black for spiders

White for ghosts

A word perfect song

Alone,need a microphone

My own home,some company

I want to feel grown

Has everyone flown?

Ghost past cities

Iceland

Ice,how does it turn blue?

How do I feel pretty?Like this

I have marks all over me

I feel finished

Juke Box

I turned the light out

Everything went blue

Like a waterfall,so beautiful

Like someone put the stove on

A flame,a blue hue

Like a moonstone changing colour

Everything went pink

Like satin folding over me,

Blossoms falling above me,

As I sink

Yellow like under a canopy of leaves

Showing friendship like sunlight interweaves

Green,perfect like a golf course

And a four leaf clover

White like the white cliffs of dover and

Purple shining on the wall

Into the dark hall

When I close my eyes

I remember the dresses of the Northern Lights

Like I have my own little disco ,

It really excites!

Then I turn on some music,it really helps me sleep

Sometimes a romantic song comes on

And I smile and begin to curl my feet

Will I dream tonight?

Will the Angels hold me tight?

When will my demons be wiped?

When will this hunger subside?

There are birds on my curtains

I think they whisper don’t give up

There are pictures of butterflies

If only it was easy to wake up!

She saw me

A spider under the couch

Maybe I should crawl into that tobacco pouch!

She doesn’t want to touch me

She doesn’t want to crush me

But I have big eyes and my

Fangs are waving about!

What scares you the most,a spider or a tiger?

Tigers are strikers but spiders are

Mighty hiders!

I know where all the conkers are

In the corners of every room

But when I hear the hover on,

I can feel impending doom!

You still keep talking but I don’t have time

Passing by

I heard your blasting cry

I heard you needed a companion

You kept looking at the sky

I opened the front door

Looking for a love that’s pure,a cure to be wanted,not ignored

Can you hear my cries?

Can you  pick it up on the satellite?

Ain’t getting exercise,ain’t getting no exercise

Ain’t getting special guys,ain’t getting no guys!

All the flames in the world

Couldn’t burn us out

All the water in the world

Couldn’t flood us out

A trip down memory lane

I remember my old flame

We kissed in the pouring rain

Held hands till the bus came

A trip down your street

I could feel my heartbeat

Would you take a seat on the swings

Listen to the birds sing

When I went into your room

You put on our favourite tune

Opened the curtains to the moon

Put a flower by the pillow,

All night,all noon

I went into your shed

With a blanket and soft ted

Mickey and mini mouse

Made a lego house

 

Friends across the road

Who knew they needed morse code

Lovers across the street

I want to watch their hearts meet

Is love something you can teach?

Or will cheaters always cheat?

Is love something that can grow?

Are you all for show?

Or are you happy head to toe?

Owlet

I dreamed your wings span around me

You landed on my arm

I dreamed your little feet found me

And I wasn’t alarmed

We visited the farm

Your white feathers made a psalm

My eyes follow you in the sky and I cry

So long

Deer

I wonder if I will see a deer

Standing in sunlight,a chandelier

Drinking from a spring that’s crystal-clear

Hiding from a mountaineer

Maybe we should take a trip to Windermere

If we are quiet in the woods

We might hear or we will have to wait till next year

We are shedding a tear

I need the juice of roots and berries

Twinkle Twinkle

Thanks you for you tiny spark’-Anon

Teens

Nor pining for love

Or mining for gold

All I wanted was his hold

Nor following him

Or working the gym

All I wanted was to sing

Nor buying drinks

Or dressing in pink

All I wanted was his link

But my feelings were one-sided

My room was untided

My figure was dying

And my life was unguided

I wanted to find an unlosable friend

I wanted to find my own little trend

I wanted a lucky night never to end

And avoid the chocolate from the vend

I wanted to be Juliet

I wanted to be different

I wanted to drink alcohol

Look like a blond haired doll

Eating a tub of ice cream

Undoing the button on my jeans

I wonder,do they hear my screams?

I am surrounded by bubble bees

I just need him to call,I had a crush he made me fall

We comfort each other and it works!

Battle

Like waves crashing into each other

Didn’t do much today

Are they preparing me or scaring me away?

Ghosts and goblins and all my problems

God,send me a ray

His voice is still here and so are my tears

It’s been 17 years

I know it sounds weird

But I really want him to pay

Now I feel like a stray

A helpless baby

Do my family know what is happening to me?

I tell the truth ,he wont let me free

Is everyone deceiving me?

I can feel the hate and jealousy

Does he have the key to my heart?

Or is he sat down pulling my petals apart?

I didn’t know this was possible

But I feel like its been so costly though

I’m not young anymore

Sometimes I’m afraid to walk out the door

I cry because the pain is raw

He drew,brand-newed me,wooed me!

I dreamt I fitted Cinderellas shoe

I dreamt we held hands into the blue

I dreamt we shared a rainbow moment

By the beach with a picnic peach!

By the lake with a picnic cake!

By the stream with picnic strawberries and cream!

By the park with a picnic apple cart!

By the park with a picnic jam tart!

By the Mountain with a picnic biscuit tin!

By the sea with a jar of honey!

If I was free

I would drink alcohol

Eat the healthy food I want

I would drink a cup of tea

I would use my computer and Wii

If I was free

I would drive a car

Find my friends at the bar

If I was free

I would travel just me

Go on a adventure sand,sun,sea

If I was free

Most importantly

If I was free

I would sing my heart out and write about how to be

If I was free

I would do what I want in the gym

Do a class and concentrate

Have a good swim

If I was free

I would have a healthy breakfast and

Stop binging on chocolate

If I was free

I wouldn’t be full of regret

I would correct my sins

If I was free

I would have no anxiety

My clothes would fit me perfectly

If I was free

I would go out more oftenly

Wear high heels and pretty dresses

I would be a confident me
