Hello, I Love You

I can’t make you love me

I can’t stop the steady flow of tears

We were there

We were it

But neither of us were ready to commit

It felt so right

It was so wrong

How can I possibly go on

It’s all too hard

So says the bard

Come on world, come on!

Why did you fuck this up

I wanted it all so badly

Now I wake to the bitter salty taste of regret

It’s there lurking

Like Diablo

It…hurts

God I wanted him

In my heart and everywhere else

It was so promising

The chemistry was incredible

A fleeting instant

Made painful memories distant

Hello, how are you?

I wish I were dead

Okay

Yep

Thanks

Whatever

His face hovers in the clouds

In every crowd

In every queue

The photographs burn

The jewellery pinches

The memories stain

The kisses…oh the kisses

Still make me shiver

God

It’s shit

He was perfect

Ticked all the boxes

And my box too, come to that

I wanted it all

I had it all

For a brief moment

Men, can’t live with them
can’t live without them

His touch made me wince with pleasure

I surrender myself completely

All my inhibitions disappear

All my worries float away

I could say anything

It didn’t matter

We would laugh together

He would tease me

I would gasp

It was…

Right

It just felt so god damn right

Now it’s over

Now I’m alone

I visit cemeteries for the peace and quiet

Not in a morbid kind of way

Oh no, it’s just it feels like the end of my day

It’s tough

I didn’t call his bluff

I wanted it all

Now he’ll never even call

My tears are salty

As is my heart

Rivers, oceans, mountains

Who cares?

I would walk on hot coals

Just for one more lingering kiss

Just to be held once more

Avec la tendresse

Le chaleur

Il est parti

He’s gone for good

Over

I mumble and crumble

He’s onto the next

Great

I’ll go die now shall I?

Good! Bye!

But I’m stronger than that

Hello I miss you

Hello I want you

Hello, I will always love you

Everything in my world is blue
