Frog & Lily

My dear,

The dreary, nondescript blurring of my days

For now form into a formidably warm summer haze.

Somehow you have set ablaze my tactless meander,

Rendered my ponder with an anchor bold answer.

As I flit from every lily pad I’ve crept upon so slightly,

The ripple of my crash was a shaking I felt fortnightly.

I could never catch my balance, but have I landed on a flower?

Resting, testing, and so tempting to stay…

Why should I give you that power?

I should be leaving anyway...

But why?

My cynicism now as flighty as my smiling;

Floral and delicate, I find myself unwinding…

I’m slowing now - taking each moment in.

I feel too softly for you; soft against my skin.

And still while I’m riddled with dissecting my sins,

When I land on his base, my weary theories fall thin.

Slimline I swim in such an easy emotion,

Feel I mustn't try too hard,

You've got an intoxicating potion.

And as I swell and bathe in this new landscape,

I don’t wish to leap, but not only for your sake.

My flighty tendencies will never be understood…

Yet I'm rather fed up of getting stuck in the mud.

Must we kiss a few toads before finding a prince?

Well, I landed on a lily and haven’t looked back since.

Homewrecker

(Homewrecker Lyrics 2014)

Hello!

I am your homewrecker.

Sad to be of service.

When your relationship goes sour,

Why am I the one you notice?

I'll run away…

But you'll run right back.

But honey, I'm just keeping you off track!

So my love,

Can't fix your broken things,

I don't have angel wings,

So take out your trash,

Then phone me back.

It seems I waltzed right in.

Like a canon ball.

I tip-toed in on broken glass.

It seems the boy that I loved

Already had it all,

But sadly, I would find out last.

B

That he-ee-ee

Had tied a knot

But his pipe got blocked

so ring ring, knock knock!

So what’s a girl to do?

How can I count on you?

Too many eggs in your basket.

You’ve already got your chick.

Can you not control your self.

To you it must seem so fantastic?

B

As for me-ee-ee

I don’t agree

A pig with excuses poor

Ain't safe in a house of straw...

CH

Hello!

I am a homewrecker.

Glad to be out of service!

When your relationship goes sour,

Why am I the one you notice?

I'll run away.

But you'll run right back.

But honey, I'm keeping you off track!

So my love,

I don’t fix broken things,

I don't have angel wings,

So take out your trash,

Don't phone me back.

Friends In Love

Sing to me your story of her,

My friend so sweet and kind.

Let my heartbroken dwelling,

Break with the swelling

Of my heart surpassing my mind.

It’s so good to see love,

Even when external to us;

It reminds us that it still exists.

And as I bury my grief,

You extract what’s beneath;

That my faith in love still persists.
