Silly Girl


Running in circles

Making love to the devil

Dreaming in stanzas

Bells strung on this nightmare

Silly girl

He’s not yours to hold

A thief in the night

His heart is cold

Do you still sit by your phone

Hoping it’ll ring?

Are you always only half asleep

Because what if it’s him?

Waking up with memories playing on repeat

Wondering when it’ll stop

He’s like turpentine to your veins

But how do you give up your favourite home?  

Those long talks till the break of dawn

Have slowly become you, your diary and a pen

 Laced fingers and synchronized smiles

Have now turned into a tiresome waiting game

Silly girl, he’s not yours anymore

He belongs only to the moon and the universe

His heart doesn’t beat for you like it used to

You should be glad all you have is a broken heart




Because it could have been a lot worse.
