Transferrable Poems


Scattered Pieces

The greatest mistake I’ll never forget
My only downfall that I won’t regret
There was once a gamble, my life I bet
To my dream guy, everything I beget.

I foolishly placed my heart over my mind
And I thought our destinies were intertwined
It took me years to realize that I’m blind
Now I am lost, and myself I cannot find.

I did my best just to look unaffected
Faked my smiles so sadness can’t be detected
Feelings cannot be easily omitted 
Transferrable? No, it can’t be diverted.

Moving on, really, is unbelievably hard
For every step, It feels like stepping on a shard
Though it hurts cause loving him is more like a hazard,
I’ll love him with all the scattered pieces of my broken heart.

Wheelie Bins Know What You'Re Thinking

Wheelie bins know what you’re thinking
Deep down you know it’s true
They know just what you did last night
And they are judging you

And if you think you see them smirk
When you are walking past
It’s probably not the first time
And it will not be the last

Wheelie bins know everything
Much more than you’d suspect
For they grew wisdom from the pain
And betrayal of your neglect

They did not sit there helpless
When you moved in for the kill
They met up with their comrades
And learned transferrable skills

In the depths of all our gardens
They huddled, gaining strength
From knowledge and camaraderie
They learned woodwork and French

So if you think they are mocking you
With their skills in carpentry
Elles parlent français, mon ami,
Ces poubelles de wheelie

Wheelie bins know what you’re thinking
They know just what you’ve done
So do not cross a wheelie bin
For their time has finally come

You’ll find them down the garden
Happy within themselves
Reading Jean Paul Sartre
And knocking up some shelves
