Under The Spell

I don’t care what you say
I’ve seen things that you do
Don’t tell me any more lies
I’ve lost all my faith in you

Where did it all go wrong? Tell me
Is there someone else in your life
Be honest with me, I want the truth
I don’t need this, come on your my wife

I was there for you, but you’re not there for me
I helped you, but you’re being of no help to me
I cared for you, but you don’t care about me
I wanted you, but you no longer seemingly want me
I still need you, but you’ve shown you don’t need me
I still love you, do you still deep down, love me

I tried to do everything you asked
I am so happy that you’re a success
I hardly ever saw you, now I know why
Now all I can see & feel is emptiness

Do you want to make it work? Oh no
Where did our love go? Please explain
I need to know these things, I’m hurt
I hope that you never feel this pain

I can see through you, but you can’t see me
I listened to you, but you didn’t hear me
I looked after you, but you can’t look at me
I understood you, but you never understood me
I still need you, but you no longer need me
I still love you, but you don’t love me

Is that a tear I see in your eye
I’m crying too,keeping it all inside
We can stay together, let’s do it now
I do have feelings that can’t be denied

I can see you, and you can see me
I’ll respect you, if you’ll respect me
I’ll care for you, now that you care for me
I’ll always love you, and you’ll always love me

A Short One

Poetry is not a new thing
But how long will it last
We can’t predict the future
And we can’t undo the past

 

Is poetry an addiction
Not like drugs, or sniffing glue
If there was no more poems
Tell me what would we all do

 

Poetry can’t bring peace on Earth
Or feed the starving masses
As I look all around me
I can not find my glasses

 

Poetry can be really fun
But you need to beware of the cat
I know it’s unusual, it’s not a dog
This pussy, you can’t stroke or pat

Just Another War

Just another war
Fighting insurgents in Iraq
Call in the Air Force to attack
And just go home
Just another war
Heat seeking missiles everywhere
Missing the targets, they don’t care
They’ll go home

Oh it’s such a stupid war
I don’t think you know what to do
Just a stupid war
The killing keeps on going on
How long will this war carry on?

Just another war
Boy soldiers killing, on their own
The stars and stripes look all alone
To everyone
Just a stupid war
For the black gold, or something else
Are you wasting your nations wealth?
that’s not good

This is such a stupid war
Your War on Terror’s crazy too
Just another war
The killing keeps on going on
Our peaceful way of life has gone

You can’t keep all the oil, you know
Planting seeds and watching them grow
Will the Grim Reaper let you sow
You know you’ll reap just what you sow
Just another war
You’ll leave the country in a mess
Don’t think you know, what’s for the best
A stupid war
Mothers and children laid to waste
Terrorist claims need to be faced
Just another war
An illegal war?
A stupid war?
