Back in the day the wonderful Jay began a "Poems" thread but due to the forums lost of posts most of them got erased and since Kev brought it up not so long ago but was too coward (jk lol) i decided to start one again. Yes, me, the king of poetry. haha

Anyone feel free to write poems but mostly likely you'll see me and Kev duke it out. heh

My first poem is called "A Night's Tale".

As i describe to you all this night
I swear it couldn't have been more right
Stars even aligned for us tonight
And skies open so we began dancing tonight

Passes of song melodies played in sync to every move we made
Follow by the beats of our hearts as we dance and dance away
It was our private getaway
And not one easily to fade away

If we happen to stumble and miss one single beat
This wonderful night would bring life back to our feet
Composing tunes with every single stroke of wind
Leading waves near the sea carry the songs to sing

As we taste this moment we bring joy into our life
We look forward and forward and not past our lives
And while one thing is clear another is not
This night this moment is drawing closer to a stop

Walking away from this is the farthest thing
Only opposite to the kiss this night can bring
With each second minutes never seemed more alive
Anxiously waiting the big moment of the night

And as the moon steers far and far away
We reach the moment where there’s nothing left to say
The falling leaves, the silent wind, and the waving sea stop motion
Yet our kiss can be witness from across the ocean

It was the first time we danced together
And it couldn’t have been more right
The moon shined so bright
It lighted our path all through the night

I held you and you held me
It was the closest thing to heaven
That I could ever wish it be…


C'mon Kev, bring it!

hahah! coward eh?


Here's a song I wrote a few weeks ago

Bad Actress

Are you tired of cliches yet?
I can't remember the lines you forget.
you're pretty lonely at the top,
your smile fades when the film stops.

You may not share a star with the rest,
but I think you look fine standing in that dress.
and maybe if our roles flipped,
someday, I can write your script.

The critics are out already,
they'll take shots at every beat.
It's not the spotlight that makes you pretty,
but it's got you staring at your feet.

Just pretend that no one's watching,
every moment to scale your mistakes.
We'll run far from the cinema,
but we'll watch the scenes we create.

The critics are out already
they'll take shots at every beat.
It's not the spotlight that makes you pretty,
but it's got you staring at your feet.



another one I wrote last night


Coffee

The book on your desk is open,
but what about your heart?
I find myself broken,
starting is the hardest part.
I had my cup of coffee,
but you had your sip of tea.
I thought of all the mornings
you haven't spent with me.

When will I learn the fix?
Rootbeer floats and guilt won't mix.
I tried giving you a call,
left a voice mail in the hall.
These telephone lines never end
so I never called again.
All those postcards never helped,
you wrote me feelings you never felt.

One day I woke up in California,
but felt like an east coast bloke,
Your past self has whispered
words of smiling folk.




that last song seems short, but it was 3:41 when we recorded it!

That's some really really good songs their Kev. I think "Bad Actress" was very cleverly written and i love how you use the aspects of an actor along with the words in the song. Now where the other one was kinda simple "Coffee" is way way deep. It definitely had some flow and it's so meaningful at the same time. And it was so good it almost feels improvised which i can't tell you how much of a good thing that is. Well done!

Written with the piano

At Least You Were Mine For The Night

Truly, Madly,
don't you know I hardly
sleep anymore?
again it's after 4.
I go Slightly
Crazy nightly,
thinking of
how to win your love

But the best I can do
is dream of you.
If only sleep would find me
I could hold you near
until you disappear
in the morning light,
at least you were mine for the night.

There's no other underneath my cover,
but thoughts of you keeps me warm the whole night through.
And even if there really is no place where dreams come true,
my heart is still with you

But it's through star dust,
I imagine us.
If only sleep would come
then I could hold you near
until you disappear
when each new day
takes you away,
I'll hold you near
until you disappear
when each new day
comes to take you away.

Nicely done, Kev. Very cool. I read it a few times over cause at first i wasn't getting it. But, after realizing it i understood everything and i was taken by surprise as to how simple it seems but so rich in words. Good work!

thanks a bunch Ed! I'm going through this melancholy stage, so I apologize for the slight mood swings in my writing.

Here's a song I wrote on the ukelele. or however that's spelled. written after a cool day.

Happiest When I'm With You

I think I met you in the summertime,
we went to discos and got drunk on wine.
I couldn't tell if you were gay or strait,
but you were different from the girls I hate.
I guess it's positively true
I'm happiest when I'm with you.

You were the only one to notice me,
and I could feel the electricity.
I didn't know if you fancied me,
I though you liked that guy beside me.
But I don't care because it's true
I'm happiest when I'm with you.

And now you say that you're in love with me,
and that I make you funny in the knees.
But then I found out it was just a dream,
and I can't tell you cause you'd laugh at me,
I guess it's positively true,
I'm happiest when I'm with you.


Hahaha, sorry, I'm really into indie-pop so it's not all emo and stuff.

Woah Kev! I totally and immediately felt that! Awesome! It was just so cool! I mean at first i was like "It's this like Will Smith's summertime" but it was not and you added your own flava and made it very spontanous.

here's a song written in the autumn. I want to make a short film based on this story.


Long Distance

Good Friday, I'm miles away
and missing you already.
From a backyard in Balmain,
to the post office and back again.

I bought a postcard,
it's getting close but
I haven't got around to it yet.
I know I said I'd write,
and maybe I might...

You know I'm thinking of you
in the bookstore, in the laundromat
Guess how much I love you,
much more, more than that.
More than that.

Better Saturday,
and it's been that way
since I spoke to you this morning,
from a payphone near a pub.
here's the rock n roll and
there's the rub.

And when I spoke to you,
you said "I'll see you soon"
but I won't see you for ages.
And your voice sounded so small,
it's the loneliness of a long-distance phone call.

You know I'm thinking of you
in the book store, in the laundromat
Guess how much I love you
much more, more than that.
More than that...

Here's me
Here's you,
draw a line between the two.
This is cartography
for beginners.
On a map
the gap's
three fingers
but it's more than that,
it's more than that.

I love the part "much more, more than that, more than that". You're saying so much with those words and giving the reader an understanding how big the love is. It's like hearing musical score in a stadium, you really get the sense of how big is the room even if you're watching it from your TV.

All in all, Kev, well done.

Here's a song I wrote about being sick of living in a rich neighborhood, because of how everyone acts and I'm no rich kid.
Probably the longest song I've ever written.

Sick of Suburban Skies

Upstairs the neighbors are moving in,
hammering nails into their beds.
You can hear them falling in love again,
three times this evening.
While they were asleep in bed,
jealous of how they were so content,
jealous of the money they spent,
three times this evening.

She was born in New Orleans,
he made his money on Long Island,
out on Montawk, sold used cars, paved parking lots.
They bought a cigarette boat
then they bought a truck
to move the cigarette boat
from lot to lot.

Oh but I saw their girl Ruthie,
she was running through the streets in her bare feet.
Someone ought to be ashamed of her,
someone ought to be ashamed.

Their daughter stepped on glass again,
her foot bled red as dye,
through the floorboards,
through the floorboards.
You could hear his hand drop,
they split the estate, it was againts the law,
it was againts the law.

Oh but I saw their girl Ruthie,
she was running through the streets in her bare feet.
Someone ought to be ashamed of her,
someone ought to be ashamed.

we were dreaming of the green trees,
oh we were just dreaming of getting by.
We were dreaming of making ends meet,
oh we were just dreaming of getting by.

I fell in love again tonight,
my heart bled red as dye
through the floorboards,
through the floorboards.
While they tried to sleep in their beds,
jealous of how they were so content,
jealous of the money they spent
three times this evening.

Oh but I saw their girl Ruthie,
she was running through the streets in her bare feet.
Someone ought to be ashamed of her,
someone ought to be ashamed.

We were just dreaming of getting by!

Another melodramatic song, my expertise.


Books For Girls

You can compliment me on the style of my hair.
Give me marks out of ten for the clothes that I wear.
You probably thought I had more upstairs.
I disappoint you,
I can't see through
your perfect smile.

He likes to read books written for girls.
He takes pride in being a man of the world.
In the darkest of places he gets his thrill.
He will disappoint you
if you see through
his perfect smile.

But I think separation is okay,
cause you're no star to guide me anyway.
You only wanted me to play,
how fool.
Played by your rules.

Now my door has swollen from the rain.
God knows I'll never see her face again.
People get thwarted in many ways.
They will disappoint you,
if you see through
their perfect smile.

Still I think separation is okay,
cause you're no star to guide me anyway.
You only wanted me to play.
How fool.
Played by your rules.
