My Head Is Clouded By Love

i cant think what to write

bang loves dead what a fright

as i sit here staring at the screen

all i need to do is scream

i wish she would hear my plea

i love her why cant she see

in my room i sit alone

feeling like the millionth clone

searching for the truth to find

im going out my simple mind

i think of things to write and say

best save them for a rainy day

without her here by my side

i feel my mortal soul has died

that fire that burnt so deep inside

has dwindled and down about died

hoping for another spark

to light it up in a fresh start

another love could not compare

im all alone in my dispare

my bodys broken soul has gone

can no longer i be strong

im losing the will to live

to you my heart did i give

you tore it up and threw it down

i didnt make a single sound

i thought id die without your love

im still here just need a shove

or a message from above

this feelin wont last that long

i just need to stay strong

im thinking straight now cant you see

im telling you to set me free

ill spread my wings 

and fly away

to find love my special way

then youll see me walk right past

as if our love would ever last

ive broken the spell you cast

the love in me is so vast

youll never feel it once again

really thats just a shame

youll look back then youll see

what youve lost its plain to me

i hope you really can move on

stop playin our favourite song

my head is clear 

i know which way my heart to steer

anothers love ill find

and hold so dear

without fear

only love cant break a heart

only love can mend it

love will come and go

but your heart will remain in you for eternity

Memory

im shattered im torn
my heart skips a beat its worn
will it stop who knows
my love continues it grows
I hid my pain for so long 
maybe this is where i went wrong
no longer am i strong cant go on

sitting in dispare these feelings aint fair
where did i go wrong
my heart played its love song
beating so strong inside
now receeding like the tide
in my poetry i confide
because theres nothing but heart ache outside

sitting in my room thinking is this love lost 
about to seal my doom what a cost
like a tree in autum breaks it heart by shedding leaves 
only to grow and bloom and show its love again
what a wonderful sight 
but am i right

she feels the same today 
but things said just wont go away
can you forgive if you cant forget
is this why im filled with regret
is lifes path allready set

like footprints in the sand
pretty patterns so grand
the tides strength they cant withstand
watch as they wash away 
make there last stand

and become but a memory


the end 

higgledy piggledy 
like my head 

hope someone enjoys this off the cuff rhyme

Why

WHY………….

Why does my heart beat so slow
Is it because I have to let my baby go
I have to leave your warm embrace
Its just too much for me to face

Why does the river of tears never dry
It seems without you all I do is cry
My heart says yes my head says no
I shouldn’t have to let you go

Without you here by my side
In no a soul I can confide
I wish these feelings would subside
Or I could let them run outside

I long to feel your tender touch
I know that thought is just too much
I know that I am to blame
But that wont stop me going insane

I once was lost
But then was found
Like that weekend we spent riding around

The days by the beach we did share
they had to end that’s so unfair
Ill never forget that poor seal
I know how it felt its so unreal

Those days are gone we used to share
But in my heart there always there
I love you sweetheart don’t you see
just how much you mean to me 

You won my heart set free my soul
To love you was my only goal
I placed my life upon your hands
Its slipping away like grains of sand


As I turn and light another cigarette
Please know baby there’s no regrets
Im sorry it has come to this
But you know your love was truely bliss

Without you here I am lost
Cold and chilled like winters frost
This has come from the heart
Good luck baby in your new start

rough and ready but thats me :) H

Argueing

when we argue it aint nice

it comes at such a hefty price

my heart it breaks why cant you see

your the holder of its key

get ahold and grip it tight

squeeze it hard with all your might

drain each drop like you dont care

i hurt yours its only fair

my heart is fighting with all its clout

cant you hear it scream and shout

feel its beat slow right down

then throw it to the blessid ground

watch it wither watch it die

then look me straight into eye

and watch again as i cry

the tears you see are stained with blood

from my heart this is not good

now heed this warning before i go

my heart no longer out on show

one day you will really see

how much you meant inside to me

my feelings are still quite raw 

i know you heard and you saw

now its time to end this ryhme

hoping one day again youll be mine

Lost Love

Ive fought these feelings for to long

I promised you I would be strong

outside I look so big and bold

Im breaking up the truth be told

another tear rolls down face

this love lost is a disgrace

without you here by my side 

inside i feel i have died

your tender touch i do so miss

it really did feel like bliss

I really feel i cant go on

without you here to egg me on

I need your eyes to stare upon

to let me know theres nothing wrong

To hold your hand to my face

and feel the warmth of your embrace

I wish this feeling would subside

this hurt would stop deep inside

Im dying from the inside out

wont you hear my silent shout

Im crying as i type this rhyme

loving you is my only crime

...

short but sweet hope you like

Tears

ive shed a thousand million tears

seen come true my deepest fears

i no longer feel alive

somehow i feel i have died 

the warmth and saftey of your embrace

has gone and i feel out of place

i wish my dreams would come true

so i could now be with you

my words i put within this ryhme

hoping it will just take time

for you to see my love is real

and this is how you feel

our lips to meet a stolen kiss

they really did feel like bliss

the time we shared and went away

i thought your love was here to stay

now its gone ill be strong

and hope this feeling wont last for long

until our doves meet again

good bye my love 

my greatest friend

How...........

How can i see when im blinded by tears

how can i eat when all my lips long for is the touch of yours

how can i breath when all i need is to smell your sweet scent

how can i feel when your not here to embrace

how can i hear when all i wish for is to hear those words

how can i move on when i cant see a future without you

how can i think when my head is clouded with you

how can i sleep when all i do is weep

how can i love when all i love is you

how can my heart beat when it is incomplete

how can i retreat when im on a one way street

how can i walk away when my hearts screaming stay

how................
