Moonbeam

Look up and see
The moon at night.

So far away,
And cold,
And bright.

Struck by a thought,
Or three,
Or four.

A moonbeam’s knocking
On your door.

Night Out

Night time’s
A nice time
To be outside.

Beautiful Places

Beautiful places
I like beautiful places
Places where all you see is wonderful,
Everything is just right.
Maybe it’s a state of mind?
Can’t think clearly…
Whatever it is, it’s nice.

Place and Time

Moving out, moving on
Pieces of the past emerge.
Love fought fiercely
Fighting to hold on
To the undeserved.

Quotes from My Muse

On using others:
“I used to deliberately have affairs with married men because I got what I wanted without any commitment.”
“I like Meetup because you can have friends for a while without any commitment to give anything back.”

The Truth Doesn’t Matter When You’re Pretty

The truth doesn’t matter when you’re pretty,
You can do whatever you like.
The truth doesn’t matter when you’re wonderful,
No matter what you do you’ll be liked.

Broken

I made myself vulnerable
To give you everything I am.
You tore it up dispassionately.
Why?

I Miss You

I miss you,
Whatever you are,
I liked it,
I knew what you are.

What Are You (what am i)?

Lying on a beach,
It’s warm,
No pressure.
You coldly ask:
“Why are you still here?”
(What’s this about?
I’m your boyfriend,
I’m on holidays with you…
…half-way around the world…
…you asked me here.)
“Because of how I feel about you.”

An Ending

When I feel nothing,
It’s harder than feeling pain.
Pain, anger loneliness,
Longing to see you again.
