    ok so heres mine, enjoy

    Can i have you? in the green grass of that summer,

    after the emotional rollercoaster, facing the demons of my past.

    that silent grip that kept us together but tore us apart inside.

    after you had stood, waiting for my cries of deceit and betrayal to stop pouring out.

    after you had watched each poisoned petal fall from this once innocent stem.

    after i had crumbled, and you had pulled me back up.

    after you had dragged me to that place, forced me to look that house in the face.

    that door, those curtains, that smiley smiley gate. poisoned smile.

    just as it was then, just as it was that day, just as it will remain.

    after you had probed my mind with questions, opened closets long bolted shut.

    after you had called out my fears, one by one and tamed them. Pandora.

    after you had wiped clean that poisoned slate, made me forget, made me white, pure as snow.

    after you had walked me along that path, strong and silent as a secret.

    do i know you? beautiful stranger. heart breaker, tear catcher, dream maker, truth watcher.

    i fear that i do. i fear i will know the touch of your mouth on my skin.

    the warmth of your breath on my neck.

    i fear it. i fear i will not appreciate, not see the beauty.

    i fear i will miss it. 20 years from now, shrivelled up alone, with only memories, images, but no feeling.

    so will you wait? will we wait? will we tiptoe past each other and not make contact?

    can i have you? can i have you? in the green green grass of that summer.

    ahh yes.

    swirly, whisper kisses along my spine, sshh.

    you'll disturb them.

    they are happy there, tiptoeing along.

    ahh yes.

    twirly, spinning fingertips along my face. careful, you'll knock them over.

    they are happy there, tiptoeing along.

    ahh yes.there i am. trip, skip, hop, skip, jump. along the path, through the tall grass,

    the thrill of the chase always got me going.

    i will not forget you, strong and silent as a secret, whispering your kisses along my neck.

    so can i have you? in the green grass of that summer? Or will we wait?

    Lost and never found,
    Alone in the world no-one around,
    The trees so still,
    Nothing around to kill,
    Weak in solitude,
    No money, no home, no food,
    How can I live?
    My life slipping away like flour through a sive,
    Day by day,
    Hour by hour,
    Second by second,
    Here I lay,
    Thinking of how my life used to be sweet but now is sour,
    Wishing, one day ill be found......
