Lizzie O'Neill Poems

The shimmer of the silk,
The clicking of the heels,
The hair curled,
The make-up pristine,
...

So many times we see
The fake eyelashes,
Fake tan,
Fake chest,
...

Walking through the park,
So dull and grey,
No one notices anyone's there,
Always in a rush,
...

The long walk,
The cold wait,
People commuting,
Two guys going to Uni,
...

The sleepless nights,
The constant fights,
Sleep eludes me,
But people don't see,
...

A million stars in the night sky,
Thousands of eyes looking down from so high,
I look up and what do I see?
All those eyes looking back at me,
...

I look up at the sky each night,
And see the stars shining bright,
I get this feeling deep inside,
That tells me not to hide,
...

The thoughts,
The memories,
Keep passing through my head,
I lie in the dark,
...

I lie in bed,
Fantasy's running through my head,
I see you and me,
One big happy family,
...

You look at me,
I'm happy,
Bubbly,
Not a care in the world.
...
