Claire Abbott Poems

Is it true what they said about me,
I had my eyes closed I couldn't see.
You told me lies.
Is it true what they say about you,
...

Hey! You are alone now.
No-one to turn to.
You threw it all away.
So go out, get about,
...

Your name swims in my head, calling out to me,
shouting, never leaving me in peace.
I can't help but think of you.
You are at the forefront of my mind, playing games.
...

Stardust tingles on my lips,
my heart beats loud and clear in my ears.
My breath gasps, sounds I hardly recognise.
My brain fries with the electricity passed between us.
...

Some poeple always tell the truth,
Some people never lie,
You lied you fibbed and told the truth,
You managed to make me cry.
...

It suddenly creeps up,
without me even noticing,
I didn't reaslise it was there,
Until you showed me the way.
...

Holding on to your body,
Feeling your heart beat,
Hearing your voice whisper in my ear,
Is this what they mean,
...

It is a strange and funny thing,
That you do to me,
How often you make me laugh or cry,
Till I just can't see.
...

I was lost, all alone,
A child without a friend.
I was there, upset and scared,
With nowhere to go.
...

A stranger became my friend,
A friend became a stranger,
I loved and lost my heart,
Yet my heart was lost to love.
...
