Dark Star |
A naked man, across the lawn, ghosts of morning walk a carpet of tears, |
Croquet balls, scattered moons, drowning sorrows on a sea of green. |
The fairy falls with broken wings; |
I hold it close to me and then let it fly, |
Another dream, another you, shattered splintered shards explode in the blue. |
An open door, an empty drive; |
no kitchen drama, no final goodbye. |
You’re making out, it’s all my fault; |
you left to go in search of sympathy. |
You thrive on grief, on tragedy; |
You paint the pictures you want them to see. |
I’m just a dark star, inhabiting a silent void, |
Spinning in the darkness, orbiting a universe, |
I want to be a meteor, want to travel at the speed of light, |
Another dead star, silhouette against a pale moon, |
I want to crash into another world. |
That’s how it was, 'or how you saw it,' |
You never talked, 'you never listened,' |
I beg to differ, 'I choose to disagree,' |
You wanted out, 'I couldn’t take it,' |
You got no balls, 'don't you know it,' |
That’s my opinion 'you're making that clear' |
It’s at an end, 'this thing is over,' |
You led me on, 'tin pot poet,' |
I write the words down that you don’t want to see. |
I’m just a dark star, inhabiting a silent void, |
Spinning in the darkness, orbiting a universe, |
I want to be a meteor, want to travel at the speed of light, |
Another dead star, silhouette against a pale moon, |
I’m in another world. |
It ain’t easy, it was never going to be, it ain’t no free ride, |
you don’t get my sympathy, |
You should have realised you had to compromise, it ain’t easy, |
was never going to be easy. |
You let my world explode into stars |
