New

I haven't long met you

And you'll never hear these words

But after the recent shit storm

That surged through my life

Crashing like waves

Over my future and plans

You'll probably don't realise

What new friendship can mean

The reason for my verse

My optimism and smile

Lets just grab coffee

And talk for a while

You'll talk about anything

Suprisingly refreshing

Politics or travel

You never get bored

Boredom's for the boring

I'm starting to see

Its now time for coffee

Fancy joining me?

Love and War

Love and war have always been linked

Ever since days of old and the stories told

By Homer and his contemporaries

Since the time of early cave painting

We see warfare with arrows

Men battling nature taking down beasts

For food, for sport or maybe just for legend

But in these same places, we also see love

We see the reason for war

Queen Helen abducted and a lover without his wife

Cave paintings showing love between one another

Primitive forms of marriage and rituals now committed to the history books

Always the same love and war

War and love

Love and war

War and love

Inexorably bound since the dawn of humanity

War and love

Love and war

War and love

Love and war

So perhaps this is why so many feel comfortable

Fighting with their partners

Battling and arguing, always trying to win

If this is what love is, I'd rather have none

Although I'd bet money that they have it wrong

It shouldn't be a battle if you're on the same team

I hope I'm being clear and you know what I mean

I'm not trying to say everything will be perfect

Only when it's right, it'll definitely be worth it

So let's move away from the tired old tropes

The shit we see in movies and fucking TV soaps

And yes just because love went with war

For most of humanity

And what came before

Who says it has to

Who makes the law

War and love

Love and war

War and love

Love and war

I'm not following this shit

No,

     Not anymore.

Moments Relived

'Every moment that has ever been

Exists some place in space and time'

The old man tells the boy

'The moment you were born

Exists.

The moment you lost your first tooth

Exists.

Even the moment you fell off your bike for the first time

All of these moments exist'

'So what of the moments we want to relive

The moments we wish to return to?'

The young boy asks

'Like the moment I met her

Or the night we spent together after deciding the jazz was no good'

'These exist too' the old man returned

'As well as the day spent with red pandas on a beautiful day in the city we love?'

'As well as that day'

The young boy pondered over this for a minute

'So how can I go back to these times?' he asked finally

'I saw the look in your eye when you talked about them

You were already there'

Your memories kill me everyday. There’s no day they do not make it difficult for me to breathe. They’re always there to hurt me.

Come and caress me tonight. Your arms, your skin, your tongue, your everything, give me all of you, once again?
