whenever there's nothing to see
you'll be my eyes
telling me not to look in the dark parts
but rather focus on the colorful ones

whenever it is dark
you'll be my light in the way
guiding me as i mindlessly walk
into the pitch black of nothingness

whenever i feel blue
you'll be the waves
that will washed me away
through the shore of intrusive thoughts

whenever i tell myself i'm unworthy
you never ceased to make me feel
like i'm the luckiest gal on earth
just with you, being you

whenever i'm lost
i would always come back to you
because when you wrap your arms around me

i feel like i'm home.

Sometimes I wish
things were different
or better
but when I look around
me, I realize I don't
want anything to change.

I'm your knight in shining armour
I'm your bane, your adipose
I'm the reason you're not happy
I'm your ****, your tuberose.

You're my shock, my half cooked omelette
You're my biscuit never picked
You're my very painful fracture
You're the fur ball cats have sicked.

He's the one you should be courting
He's the one that hides distaste
He's the martyr, self inflicted
He's the life that's gone to waste.

She's the one that smiles at no-one
She's the girl that lives alone
She's the happy, carefree songbird
She's the chocolate scoffing crone.

Count your blessings maid of plenty
Lucky that you've never cared
Comatose to squires, to gentry
That beating lump you've never shared.

We were the lucky ones;
The people who lived.
But take it for granted
Was all that we did.

she will crash the party
and leave in haste
she will bring riches
and bleed you dry
she will take one form 
and depart in another 
she is lady luck 
and she will keep you alive today
but extinguish your life tomorrow

Yes, I'm 65, now elderly,
That's the term, officially,
One day, shopped locally,
Bought a lotto, luckily?
Someone wins tonight, says she,
Dear God, why can't it be me?
Yes, yes, this lotto is lucky,
Wait for the draw, breathlessly,
Anticipate now I am elderly,
Old folk can be winners too, says she,
This is going to be my lucky night,
If I win, I can sort the bill for the light,
Getting old is not for hissy fits,
Come on, lotto, let's have a bit!
