Short Story

Yesterday I came back from my parents home.
And they presented me with my future wife.
Cold tears pour down my cheeks like slow raindrops on window panes.

Not A Creep

Sexy darling
I am just going to watch you sleep
I am not a creep
I am entirely normal
Ha ha
Its funny to think
When you awake you'll be
Shocked to find yourself
Tied to my bed
Hands threaded through ropes of white
Ankles bound by a single knot
And you'll stay here until
Everything about you is forgot
You'll lie here, eyes wide
I will lie beside you and
Stroke your hair
Your long hair
I am not a creep
Tonight I will watch you sleep
Then tomorrow
We'll
Be together for eternity

S O N G

my song is about
something
never before sung
it is the story of angels
ancient when the earth
was young

it is a tale of betrayal
hatred
sorrow and woe
the wolves amongst the sheep are plenty
the shepherd will
never know

Gareth.

I'm thinking about my brother.

He lies at rest in the ground.
I'm thinking about him
The saying
"Even the lost can be found."

Found alright
In the dead of night
With the moon rising high
Into the cloudy sky
And my father
Our father

He walked to your room
Slowly I presume
And found you still there
In peace and at peace
Resting.

I'll never know you, brother,
But let's say for now
That if you were alive
We'd get on somehow
Even though I am a girl
And there's another boy else
My brother
We'll know each other
When I join you in heaven.

Princess

I will
Hold onto you

I mean
You're a princess
And I'm a pirate
But this feeling is
Overwhelming

Who are you
To say "it cannot be this way"
Who are you
To say "you do not want this life"
Who is it that
Can say
"They cannot be together"
Who?

Hells have fire
My heart feels as if
It is on fire
For you girl,
For you

I wrap my arms around you
We lie together in the canopy of my bed
And dream of a world
Where we can be

Marry you?
I do not know.
Be your oath-bound?
It can be so.
Be your king, my queen?
I'd rather it snow
In summer
In the depths of this summer
Paradise summer

Wrap yourself around me
Be at one with me
I am yours
At least my heart and sword is
Battles cannot daunt me now
Nor the tempests that plague the seas
They are
Just shadows
I can do
Anything for you

Because I am a fucking pirate
Your a fucking princess
Heiress
Queen
And I'm sure
One day
I'll die because of you.

Change

You came into my life as swiftly as the wind changes direction.
You brought with you flowers and rushing emotions I cannot comprehend.
You are beauty I never thought I would ever see in my entire existence
Yet here you are, angel, here you are.
When did you get here from the skies above?
Did you see the earth, then fall in love?
What gave you wings to flutter from on high?
I don't understand, cannot comprehend- why is this, why?

Strut

pop pop pop
and you are down
round
upside down
give me eight and appreciate
me
hop to the left
now spin
and
frolick and speak
words
how
absurd
