No Love

You were caught by my sight, to my life you brought light.
In my thought I was lost, me found myself in your thought.
I was mute as we met, couldn't stop thinking, you are cute.
I expected to be loved, not in April like a fool I was fooled
By myself, I was wrong for biting off more than I can chew.
I stay I'm hurt, if I quit get hurt, between two stools I'm caught
Being busy counting my chickens before the eggs have hatched.
I'm all alone in it, 'cause it takes two to tango, no love existed.

Tipi and Tiki

Tipi and Tiki two girls homebound,
One had diarrhoea one was sound;
One got in a yellow press,
Other a hell of a mess,
Between two stools one fell to the ground.

Idioms For Abc

A penny for your thoughts
Bothered and pained
Caught between two stools
Drastic times call for drastic measures
Every cloud has a silver lining so
Free your mind from worries..
