You are the girl
That I once knew
Who wore shiny clothes
With brand new shoes

You are the girl
That had piercing eyes
Which told a story
Spoke a thousand lies

You are the girl
An angel from heaven
What came to earth
But never learnt her lesson
Andrew Feb 2023
I lay in bed
Staring at the ceiling
Watching the shadows
Appear from my head

You are the scar
That doesn’t quite heal
Like an open wound
Which I can still feel

Where are you now
Out there on your own
In another world
Where you can’t be found
Andrew Feb 2023
I tried and I cried
same time every night

I used everything
to numb my head

from the smoke
to the drink
I closed my eyes
to help me think

you were here
but you left me

so who is this
who’s laying
in our bed
Andrew Feb 2023
I scrape my feet
along this broken road
dumping old memories
to lighten the load

I trip and stumble
between each crack
staying awake
so I don’t turn back

into the sunset
I must carry on
where she’ll be waiting
but I’ll be gone
Andrew Feb 2023
I look
for you
through
the morning dew

in the place
where
we once knew

concrete
streets
beat me
down

the cold
heavy rain
covers
the ground

I lost my mind
to the most
loving
soul

to
a girl
that
wants it all

who
in the end
will take a fall
Andrew Feb 2023
I can’t keep it in
the words
are becoming thin
I’m all written out
It’s time
that I scream
It’s now
that I shout
Andrew Feb 2023
After so many years

there you were

I found you

the girl I once knew

who suddenly stole this crowed room

I would have come over

but I couldn’t,

you were smiling

gazing at your new lover

all the things that I’ve done

everything what I’m going through

I did

and still do,

because of you
I finally saw the girl who broke my heart,
At a local restaurant.
Miles away from our home town.
