Girl On The Bus 

Longing eyes behind golden curls 

so far away in your own world. 

I count the times and don't forget 

how many times our eyes have met.

I sympathise, you're…

Cloud 9

On the wings of our imaginations

and the homeliness of Cloud 9

may we never touch the ground.

The only way to fly.

The air is so much softer

and all…

White Rose

Today someone amazing

really took me by suprise.

She wore flowers in her hair

and twinkles in her eyes.

Outcast?

Teardrops drench her pillow, coldness drenches her skin

She's pining for the ghost of a man who's never been

though you'll use me as I've been used before.

If love was on the menu I'd want a slice
