Poetry

Before the Break Up
This is not poetry but a collection of the lyrics to songs I wrote from 1995-2000. I do have more of these but I think they deserve a quiet death. These are not of very good quality but are retained for sentimental reasons.

Clocks Stopped
Die Tonight
Drowning
Just Disappear
No Second Chances
Synthetic Ground
Vicious Circle
Worn Out

Break Up Poetry (2001)
Coming to terms with a horrific heartbreak.

Don't
Infected Sleep
Long Goodbye
Once
Perfect Dream
Phone Calls from Far Away
Taking the Leap
Talked Out
Waking World
Walking Away
Wall Between Us

Still suffering from the break up.

Broken
Daydream for a Better Life
Irrepairably Damaged
Luck Forever

Beginning to move away from the break up.

And She Was
As She Walks Out

Of Thoughts Taken Back
Patient Refuses My Bed
Sick Birds
Sinister Left Hand
