See and Know

I look around myself
Never spending much time in..
Easier to cast my eyes
Than knowing how I got to this place that I take in

I look around
Sometimes the words lie too much with me
Calmer more relaxed they would take their place
Open doors see a happier side
See my inability to extinguish lies

See and know
That you can’t take this picture from me
And god knows you tried

Because I have looked deep and around myself
And seen it here and now
That I’m glad to know you

Love, not lost

Let’s go to bed
Without a care
Or knowing that anyone else was there
Curl up quite
Pull our hands around us
Snug up tight
Those bastards from
the past won’t bite

Let’s go to bed
Without them there
There’s only me and
You who really care
