Heartbreak
He wants to say "I love you,"
But keeps it to "Goodnight."
Because love would mean some falling,
and she's afraid of heights.
But keeps it to "Goodnight."
Because love would mean some falling,
and she's afraid of heights.

About this poem:
Instantly feelings
Subway
McDonald's, Dunkin Donuts
ooh, I wanna take ya
Pizza Hut, KFC, come on pretty mama
Taco John's, Hardee's
Baby, why don't we go
Burger King
Off of any city street
There's a place called Subway
That's where you wanna go to get away from it all
Meat and cheese in bread
A fountain drink cooling off your hand
We'll be falling in love to the rhythm of
"What toppings would you like on that?"
Over at Subway
McDonald's, Dunkin Donuts
ooh, I wanna take ya
To Pizza Hut, KFC
Come on pretty mama
Taco John's, Hardee's
Baby why don't we go
Over to Subway
Ooh, I wanna take her to the Subway
We'll get there fast food and then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go
Over to Subway
ooh, I wanna take ya
Pizza Hut, KFC, come on pretty mama
Taco John's, Hardee's
Baby, why don't we go
Burger King
Off of any city street
There's a place called Subway
That's where you wanna go to get away from it all
Meat and cheese in bread
A fountain drink cooling off your hand
We'll be falling in love to the rhythm of
"What toppings would you like on that?"
Over at Subway
McDonald's, Dunkin Donuts
ooh, I wanna take ya
To Pizza Hut, KFC
Come on pretty mama
Taco John's, Hardee's
Baby why don't we go
Over to Subway
Ooh, I wanna take her to the Subway
We'll get there fast food and then we'll take it slow
That's where we wanna go
Over to Subway

About this poem:
Just thinking of the last sub I had at Subway. I bought two footlongs for their special coupon for 12 dollars. I am not doing that again. It's better to just get a six inch sub and eat it fresh. My favorite place in town is UNO'S where they serve Chicago style deep dish pizza.
What Women Want
A group of girlfriends on vacation,
Find a five story hotel with a sign that reads,
"For Women Only Destination,"
And decide this will serve their current needs.
A good looking bouncer at the door,
Explains to them how the hotel works,
They can choose to stay on any floor,
If they are happy with that floor's perks.
So they go to the first floor but in vain,
For a sign there written in large text,
Says,"All the men here are short and plain,"
They laugh and move up to the next.
The second floor's sign still presents a problem,
And just doesn't satisfy their desire,
The men here are only short and handsome,
So they decide to move to a floor higher.
The third floor's sign reads that the men are tall and plain,
They still want better and with two floors left,
They decide there could be much more to attain,
Surely the next floor won't leave them bereft.
On the fourth floor the sign is more exciting,
All men here are tall and handsome for sure,
They start to go in, it is so inviting,
But wonder what they'll miss on the fifth floor.
They move to the fifth floor and read the sign,
"There are no men here," it states with caution,
For the floor was built only to define,
That there is no way to please a woman!

About this poem:
This was written some time back. I don't think things have changed that much.
The Essence of Love
The Essence of Love
Lady when you come home
I'm gonna rub your back
No...you didn't even have to ask
You've been working hard all day long
Now it's time for you to relax
I heard it in your voice
That your day was heavy
Now...close your eyes
Shut your mind down
In a few minutes your bath water is ready
You see...it's exciting to keep
A woman happy with simplicity
Because when I love...love deeply
And it's organically grown
Just like my lyrics that don't
Miss from my dome because my mind
Is always on roam in stereo speaking...
With clarity...although you ain't trying to be
In your dreams you're gonna remember me
See the essence of love can be so
Hypnotic, symbolically I drop knowledge
Like graduates who never made it to college
And never got caught up with terms and perms...
Like poppin' collars
The essence of love
Should never be equated
With home many dollars are
Within a man's wallet!
The fact of the matter is this...
You have to appreciate what you've got
Can you all equal-stand what I'm saying
See...I'm a one woman's man
I cook up love so sweet that...
It's never bland
I want to make love near palm trees and golden sands
Lady when you come home
I'm gonna rub your back
No...you didn't even have to ask
You've been working hard all day long
Now it's time for you to relax
I heard it in your voice
That your day was heavy
Now...close your eyes
Shut your mind down
In a few minutes your bath water is ready
You see...it's exciting to keep
A woman happy with simplicity
Because when I love...love deeply
And it's organically grown
Just like my lyrics that don't
Miss from my dome because my mind

And never got caught up with terms and perms...

You have to appreciate what you've got

See...I'm a one woman's man
I cook up love so sweet that...
It's never bland
I want to make love near palm trees and golden sands

Ten Little Girlfriends
Ten little girlfriends looking so fine,
One obsessed with religious cults,
And then there were nine.
Nine little girlfriends going out so late,
The demons would attack one,
And then there were eight.
Eight little girlfriends searching for heaven,
One never told the truth,
And then there were seven.
Seven little girlfriends so full of tricks,
One wanted everything,
And then there were six.
Six little girlfriends were just so alive,
One sought perfection,
And then there were five.
Five little girlfriends always wanting more,
One desired money,
And then there were four.
Four little girlfriends couldn't agree,
One always argued,
And then there were three.
Three little girlfriends wouldn't pursue,
One couldn't leave the past,
And then there were two.
Two little girlfriends basking in the sun,
One couldn't cope with age,
And then there was one.
One little girlfriend had charm by the ton,
But he couldn't see it,
And then there was none.

About this poem:
I was looking through some of my past attempts at poetry and I found this one. I thought I'd submit it to such an esteemed site. Remind me to write the book someday. My thoughts are when it comes to girlfriends never over complicate the issue. It will do your head in!
The Searching
Life has been taxing, painful and rough
Seems like the hard times are never enough
But through all disparity, I have the dream
That my searching will find me someone I need
I don't need a model, I don't want a saint
I do not wish for more friends to acquaint
There must be someone who can see through my eyes
Feel from my heart, and hear when I cry
Laugh when it's needed, smile when it's great
Craves my desire to keep you safe
Arms wrapped around you, your body, your soul
There's no room for emptiness, I'll keep you full
Days are so wasted when I'm all on my own
Without her the house is not quite a home
Wherever you are, my salvation, my world
I hope that you're out there...my completion, my girl.

Brand new. Wanted to write this just for the site....
The Man Who Never Smiled:..Epilogue
Did you hear that poor old John died? asked the swaggie of his mate
Somewhere up the North they tell me, he was in a sorry state.
It seems he was still searching for that bird he spoke about
And it was on some lonely highway his old ticker just gave out.
Yeah, I heard something about that Bill the other swaggie said
I never thought I'd live to hear the news that John was dead
For a stronger man I've never seen in all my roving days
Determined, grim and resolute, yet kind in all his ways.
Now it's time I hit the road mate, gotta make ten miles today
So I'll see you round the traps some time, good luck.oh by the way
I was passing where they'd buried John, Bill to his mate then said
And I chanced to see his marker, the inscription on it read
"There lies beneath this mound of earth a mate a bird done wrong
The victim of a broken heart was John..from Wollongong".

About this poem:
Epilogue, but this time fiction as I'm still alive and kicking.For our international friends "swaggie"short for swagman, a person who walked the roads seeking work carrying his meagre belongings tied to a stick and wrapped in a piece of cloth which also doubled as a blanket. His "swag". Similar in many ways to a tramp.
The rupture
My loved
if this's
a day
becomes that a night
And when
What's now
insight, no more a-sight
And
we're no more, no more
as we are'D
I'll be better
and not
o'ever

About this poem:
Just a simple lyric poemThe Sail Of Color White
T here by the lighthouse embraced by the mist,
H eaving up eastward is the pride of your ship,
E ntagled, the seagrass will tell you the myths of a
S ailer who solely conquers the deep
A reas of your thoughts, daring your navy. The
I les and the rocks to beware: she’s a
L ady.
O f advantage deprived and of a
F ortunate star, she navigates
C rests, exploring your heart
O ver and over without a compass.
L eaving her fate on the lines of your past,
O mitting maps and
R ules too obscure, she happily
W recks in your arms and securely
H eaves the vessel upwards the ninth wave.
I rresistable passion makes her so brave
T hat it is frightened when she turns to your core and
E motively finds her promised shore.

About this poem:
(c) 2013
Self-satisfied smile
It was never your fault,
I could never get it right.
(Right?)
I was always in the wrong,
Always started the fights.
(Fight!)
But my eyes are now wide open,
Baby now that I've see light
(I see it all now!)
so just pack your things and go
and get out of my sight.
(Chorus)
Because I know the truth now
Your words were just lies
(lies!)
You may of have me fooled once
But it’s written in your eyes
(lies!)
I can see it on your face now
It’s that look I despise
(cant stand you!)
and your sanctimonious, saccharin sweet
Self-satisfied smile
(Middle 8 break)
You said that you loved me
But it was all about control
(Control!)
I thought I was goin' Crazy
Your love took its toll
(I'm bleedin')
But now I'm standing on my own feet
I won’t be your fool
(You're leavin')
Gonna get my life back Baby
So you better go
(Chorus)
Because I know the truth now
Your words were just lies
(lies!)
You may of have me fooled once
But it’s written in your eyes
(lies!)
I can see it on your face now
It’s that look I despise
(cant stand you!)
and your sanctimonious, saccharin sweet
Self-satisfied smile
I could never get it right.

Not to everyone's tastes I know. But I would like to know what you think about it . Good or Bad,
