Quest to Impress

I like how your face is chronically a smile
a resting friendly face
I like how you carry yourself just like a child
easy and effortless
I like how you lose track of topics
conversations float around
I like how you seem always to have
both feet off the ground
I like it when you get secretive
and lower your voice
I like that I like you so much it annoys me
I hate how you don’t show me limitless interest
I’m trying really hard
I hate how I brag cause I’m desperate to impress
showing you all my art
I hate how I still fantasise
although I know it won’t work out
I hate how you’re still on my mind
if someone else and I make out
I hate that TBH your not that good in bed
Still I can’t seem to get you out of my head

Post Coital

A momentary high
leaves me craving the next hit
Tomorrow I’ll feel bad
but tonight I just can’t help it
Blast straight past the red flags
into the mine field
I’m open to attack
come blow me to pieces
I thought I was a happy mouse
Still I’m drinking opioid
Numb myself with Netflix
cause I’m too lazy to cope
your dismissal so familiar
I’m addicted to it boy
The comedown from your closeness
was it worth the short lived joy?

Dinner for 1

I used to look for love
under every stone
Thought to find your prince
you’ve gotta kiss a few toads
Well now you’re here
but the timings wrong
Can’t say it in words
so I’ll say it in song
I don’t want to fall in love right now
It just takes up all my time
I don’t want to fall in love right now
It just takes over my mind
I don’t want to fall in love right now
Cause I’ve got better things to do with my life
I’d rather cook for one
With my favourite podcast on
Or work all day
And party all night long
Well now you’re here
And you’re such a good find
Please come back in a year
In case I change my mind
But I don’t want to fall in love right now
It just takes up all my time
I don’t want to fall in love right now
It just takes over my mind
I don’t want to fall in love right now
Cause I’ve got better things to do with my life

Bubble Wrap

It’s been a while since I bubble-wrapped my heart
put it in a box and labeled it fragile
stored it away in a dark and damp place
safe from the ups and downs of the everyday
Collecting dust among long forgotten things
dormant and numb, oh what a relief
In you come and you open up the box
slowly unravelling the layers and knots
And there you stand with my heart in your hands
Exposed, defenceless and naked
I hate it, I hate it, I feel so fucking scared
just please, please, handle with care
