HE SAID

The Beginning

They told me but I didn’t listen
They warned me but I wouldn’t learn,
I saw it but I couldn’t nip it
I’d heard it and still I danced.

Slow at first and sloppy
Then livelier and happy
Quick tunes that were so lovely
But fast is just what got me.

Before I knew it I was in it
And shortly thereafter really with it,
Everything was just so easy
I almost said I did it.

The Realization

Power in a relationship
They say,
Lies with whoever cares less
But they also say
Power in a relationship
Does not equate to love.

You have all the power
And all I have is dour
Reality.
I have to say I love you
Before you crack a smile.
And cook for you and cuddle
Lest you tell me goodbye.

I make my mind and change it
Because it cramps your style.
And ditch my friends
And change my plans
To have you by my side.

That in itself is quite alright
I wouldn’t mind, I would gripe;
But why always me me me
And never from your side?

The End

I’m done with this!
I say again
I’m done with this, goodbye.
For all the while that I’ve been here
I’ve never seen a sign.

The fireworks are long since gone
The magic all but spent
No passion when we do embrace
No sigh and nay no song.

What happened to a budding love?
I haven’t got a clue,
One day twas red
The next twas blue
Then down the hill we flew.

I’ve worked on us
All on my own
And really felt a fool,
When I did see
Not long ago
That you were not as- tute.

SHE SAID

Anger

You sit there and you judge me
And now you stand to leave?
You tell me that you love me
But maybe never did.

You said it so concisely
Love me is what you did
But how can that be factual
If knowing me you didn’t?

I am this way
I never changed
Nor promise that I would
I am only as you see me now
Well maybe slightly bold.

I have this heart you gave to me
To cherish and to hold
And trust so dear you shared with me
But now want to withdraw.

I am not that dumb
I am not that slow
I know what I have
I understand what I’ve got

And if you think,
If for a min you dream
That it can up and leave
Just disappear
Then a fight's what you'll receive.

Truth

I don’t know how to love you
But you’re too blind to see
I don’t know but I want to
And I’m too scared to be
Not enough or not as much
As only you can see.

For me you are the start
To me you are the end
The one that made heartbreak worthwhile
And betrayal all okay

For you I held the best of me
And hold it still I do
I want to give it all to you
But just can't seem to do
What my soul says and my heart hails.

Fear

Teach me how to be with you
Tell me how to show
Take me on a trip with you
That lets me know for sure
How you feel and what to say
What you think and how to act
To make me right for you.

You treat me like am perfect
And make me love you so
But also make me hate you
Because that’s just not so

So now I have to learn to,
And learn it all for you.
See it’s never really mattered
Coz it’s never been with you.
But baby yo so worth it
I’ll do it all for you.

My time is now
My chance has come
And how I dreamt I’d find the one
I know I must and so I will
Find a way to take that leap.
