A Flower was Plucked

In this virgin island

Where never before had your kind strode

You came, a stranger

And you were gladly welcomed

You knew your way around

A great traveller

Must have been to other lands

For your expertise baffled this maiden

When you tilled this land

She let you sow

And she watered after you

Watched your garden grow

But as quick as dew dries in the morning sun

You left without a word, no farewell

And in this beautiful island garden

A flower was plucked

A flower was plucked

But its stalk never died

For the maiden hopefully awaits

That you’ll return

And the flower'll grow again.

Inspirational Indifference

You are my inspiration

It’s in the way you just are

Carefree, reckless, wild

You don’t hold back

When you love

It’s with a selfless abandon

Like cactus in the deprived desert

You adamantly hold on

But should you hate

It’s with a seething loathe

Deranged like an army without its captain

You ruthlessly charge at your enemy

That sense of indifference

You seem at times emotionless

Like a cave of sand in the desert

Refusing completely to feel

Or untelling if at all you feel

I’LL BREAK YOUR HEART, TOMORROW

I’ll dance with you tonight

Break bread with you all night long

Whisper softly in your ear

As my fingers caress your gullible soul.

             We will only last this night

             Then I’ll break your heart, tomorrow

             You’ll reach for me but I’ll be gone

            Eloped with the band to seduce purer souls.

I’ll kiss you with the lips of a bevy of virgins

Coyly enchant you like some dreamy princess

Entice you into my silly fairy-tale

Like you were a magical prince of ancient.

           We will only last this fair evening

           Then I’ll break your heart, tomorrow

           You’ll declare your love but I’ll be gone

           Eloped with thieving caravans to rob towns.

I’ll descend the aisle for you today

Walk seductively into your eager arms

Let’s say our vows from your silly heart

Make passionate promises to last this lifetime.

           We will only last this summer

           For, I’ll break your heart, tomorrow

           You’ll wake up and I’ll be gone

           Eloped with the sea breeze to wander wild.

Sure, you’ll fall for me. I will dazzle you with my untainted splendour, draw you to me like bee to a honey pot and tangle you in my tingly web, trapping you with my exquisite charm. Then I will feed on your love for me. I’ll suck like a hungry babe on its mother’s tits, unapologetic when I bite.

I sure will break your heart!
