The last thing on my mind.

 Romantic terrorist,

Imagine bumping into you.

The things we say we won't, 

But we always do.

Though we try,

it would never do,

Imagine you grrl lost & wrong on a late night,

Heart broke on a school night, 

And the rain soaked me through.

It's only permanent

It's not like it's forever,

The things a romantic terrorist

For love would do.

Sorry

 Don't let the voices

 in your head win.

Don't let them put you down.

Don't give in.

Smile at yourself in the mirror,

It's okay.

It's hard,

Uphill struggle against the current.

Demons that hunt your sleep.

The little voice that

Tries to remind you,

That whispers you aren't good enough.

When the truth is you are a delightful treat.

One of a kind

With no reason to hide.

Them voices lied.

You will always be amazing and great.

Sunday

 Death isn't forever,

Although life drags on.

And sadly we aren't all in this together.

Some of us are just holding on

Don't give up

 The game seems

very one sided.

The odds against you,

Born to fail.

Too much time

To kill.

Too easy,

To give away

The pieces of a broken heart.

As if, the more broken

The less the worth.

One night stands

Never heal the hurt.

It takes work,

It takes time.

Don't be scared to tell me what's on your mind.

I'll hug you so tight

Try to put the broken bits together.

Try to pull it together.

But don't be angry

Take your time.

It's okay to relapse sometimes.

It's another late night,

Kept awake by a busy mind.

Another reason to hide.

The world seems so dark tonight.

Exuse me, I'm just talking shite.

One more line

 Just one more line,

One more time.

Promise I'm not lieing.

It's hard,

Every weekend trying.

Frustration, boredom,

Tired and lonely to.

One more hit

To forget,

To stop feeling blue.

Two left feet,

And a face to match.

Just another line

To forgive all that.

The line hits the spot. 

Don't want this to stop.

Heart beating

I feel alive

For the first time

Since the last line, 

But the feeling

Won't last, 

I'm chasing a higb

I can't catch. 

So when I say

One more line,

I admit

I'm lieing.

Cause there is

Always another line,

And then another.

Til the beg is empty 

And nose blocked.

Cause when you're

Unhappy it's hard to stop.

The lines remind me

Of the me I forgot.

The hug and pint bar

 Damaged goods,

Half price. 

Maybe you could fix it, 

By putting yourself in a bowl of rice. 

Sore heads all round tomorrow . 

Your up, your round. 

We'll worry about that tomorrow, 

Eyes scan the crowd

Hoping to see someone. 

Wishing it was more easy 

To talk to women. 

Do you want a drink? 

Then the kind offer to dance. 

But those days are gone 

Heads down checking phones. 

Scared to talk,

Scared. 

Worried the money doesn't go as far. 

The summer never starts round here. 

The rain doesn't stop. 

The bar is loud,

With people drinking to forget. 

Just for one night, 

Forget how shite life gets. 

Car problems, 

On top of endless bills. 

So cheap thrills at a moments glance. 

Forget it all while drinking Pints 

Like shots. 

And shouting at each other our woes, 

Sharing our troubles. 

Knowing it doesn't change it, 

Doesn't make it better. 

No one here has the answers. 

Which makes the booze taste better. 

£60, I'm going to wax the lot. 

Then get the card out

For redbull vod and more shots. 

Full steam ahead no second thoughts.

The night before tomorrow.

 Up all night

I got demons to fight.

Work all day,

Got bills to pay.

So quiet,

With so much to say.

If I sneezed,

Would you say "bless you".

And would you listen?

If I told you all the things I like about you.

Would you help me?

If I fell?

Be the words on my lips

When I can't speak?

Help me find my dancing feet?
