Whilst washing a plate it slipped resulting in a **** to my ankle requiring medical attention....but the above sounds so much more dramatic....and thanks I am fine.....

I'd drop dead in two seconds
if my life meant less to you
than it meant to me
I've kept the lights on all night
Why did I never notice?

My lungs are protruding
just to hear you tell me I'm pretty
What the **** is that?
Am I that erroneous
to keep my heart exposed
for a man with no morals
and keep my hopes up?

I live with spineless creeps
crawling over my back like bugs
Mother would be so proud
A billionaire covered in sugar
and the words "your lover"
tattooed on my forehead
because my heart got confused
by a boy with commitment issues
I **** until I cannot feel
Play with the sky until I'm tired

Tell me I'm more than a simple human
because some days I feel so empty
that I don't know who I am
I'm sorry my decisions are clouded
and I'm imprisoned by dissatisfaction
God help the next person
who becomes watered down.
There's something 'bout a woman
Like the flicker of a fire
Makes you want to stare
Fills you with desire
No need to turn the heat
For you to feel her warmth
There's something 'bout a woman
Makes you come in from the cold

There's something 'bout a woman
That keeps your heart afloat
When the world around you
Is a sinking boat
She is the island paradise
On the raging sea you're in
There's something 'bout a woman
That's perfect for a man

There's something 'bout a woman
Makes you want to hum along
To the beauty of her melody
To the best of her in song
The joy that's in her sound
The drowning of applause
There's something 'bout a woman
Where all she is, is all you want
Think I'm melting
and
belting hot or not
that Sun
has a soft spot for me

haven't felt in
this frame of mind
since Winter came
and went.

hanging loose?
well all men do
ha.

Now I'm drooping
well all men do
another ha.

But I am melting.

Ice cream might assist me
and as it's a medical emergency
I should call an ambulance
that'd be a performance
unpaid
because of my amateur status

weightless now,
I am melted away
left it too late and
ain't that
always the way?

wishing I had gone fishing
instead of splish splashing
getting a rash in
an awkward place

always the case isn't it?
complaints about the heat
complaints when it's cold
complaints about most things
especially getting old.

Sunset soon
can't wait for the moonlight
it might
cool me down.
Have you ever witnessed the wind carry a loved one away

While the morning brings their face to light

And the night pulls tears out of memories

As your dreams make everything all right
A woman stands on a hill,
alone with her thoughts.
Through her pain she must feel
compassion for ought nought.

But stand alone and fight the mighty fight.
Bringing forth agony and fright.
From dusk till dawn she persevered alone.
To stand atop the loneliest of drones.
Within a instant of a request they dropped everything.
When stated what they would be?
Still to this day Jesus words request us to follow me.

From all things he ask of us
He radiate within our spirit and of course our soul..

When asked by some to follow me?
Make sure you are to where the path leads.
