Lyrically challenged I lie in bed
Thoughts of you are clouding my head.
I want to tell you how I feel
But to you I’m no big deal.
I want to hold you every night
Safe and warm and snuggled up tight,
To your every need I’d tend
But to you I’m just a friend.
A friend who’s there for you when you call
Someone to talk to when you fall,
Someone to sleep with when you’re bored
Inbetween girls or else ignored.
I guess I’m hoping you’ll fall for me
Open your eyes and really see
How special I am, loving and true
Here all the time, waiting for you.
Deep down I know the reality
I’ll stay a doormat while you use me,
Then one day when you meet ‘the one’
Our friendship will end, finished, done.

Thinking of You
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigThinking of you makes my heart flutter,
Makes me walk into walls and act like a nutter.
Thinking of you is a wonderful way
To make me smiley and happy all day.
Thinking of you makes my tummy turn over,
You’re a luckier find than a four leaf clover.
Thinking of you makes the sun shine brighter
And fluffy white clouds seem much whiter.
Thinking of you makes me drift away
To deep blue sea and a golden bay.
Thinking of you makes me want you so much,
I long for a kiss and your tender touch.
Hoping
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigYou make me smile and brighten my day,
Turn my world silver instead of grey.
I dream of holding you close and tight,
Thinking of you makes my world alright.
We’ve not met, yet my feelings are strong,
What if we meet and it all goes wrong,
Maybe the magic will disappear,
You won’t find me attractive I fear.
I’ve got hopes high and fingers crossed
That my love for you will not be lost
And when we meet we get on great
Finding, at last, my true soul mate.
The One
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigI want to tell you how I feel
But I’m scared you’ll run away,
I long to hold you in my arms,
In a long embrace we’ll stay.
I’ve admired you from a distance
Smiling at you from afar,
In the dark night sky of my life
You are my shimmering star.
I smile so much thinking of you
And feel a warm glow inside,
It would make my life so complete
With you right here by my side.
The Darkness
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigIn the darkness I see softness,
A softness that envelopes me in comfort
And suffocates me.
In the darkness I hear silent voices,
They are not welcome
Yet they won’t fade away.
In the darkness I taste my tears.
In the darkness I reach out
But no one is there,
Just the emptiness that taunts me
Again and again.
More Than
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigI love you more than peppermint Aeros
And the treasures of the Pharohs,
More than fresh morning dew
And tiramisu.
I love you more than Turkish delight
And watching the sun set late at night,
More than flowers in spring
And a diamond ring.
I love you more than pussycat noses
And a huge bunch of pink and white roses,
More than Thorntons toffee
And milky coffee.
I love you more than the Easter bunny
And little stripy bees making honey,
More than stars in the sky
And black cherry pie.
Karma
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigLook at you with your woeful life
Knee deep in gloom and wading through strife.
Debts ‘round your neck weighing you down
Your face locked into a permanent frown,
Clinging to drink as if it’s your saviour
Yet all it does is control your behaviour.
Hunched in a pub and thinking of me,
I showed you the way but you never did see,
Now you do but alas it’s too late
So you sit there in your maudlin state
Neglecting your girlfriend back at home
Regretful thoughts encouraged to roam.
You’re stuck in the past now, can’t move on,
Trapped in a life that’s a sham and a con.
You did me a favour setting me free
As I’m really enjoying being me.
Inside I’m Dying
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigInside I’m dying,
Full of death and decay;
I’ve wandered through life
And now I’ve lost my way.
Inside I’m dying,
Painful and slow;
From the depths of despair
I’ve now sunken so low.
Inside I’m dying,
Don’t want to live anymore,
Need to turn off the lights
And close tight the door.
Illness
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigBlood pumping
Head thumping
Heart stopping
Pill popping
Over eating
Over heating
Night sweating
Day fretting
Skin itching
Leg twitching
Ankle throbbing
Freedom robbing
Metal tasting
Life wasting
Need to sleep
Very deep
Stop the pain
Before insane
I would be there
Published January 15, 2015 by naomirettigI would be there
When you need me,
I would be there
When you want me,
I would be there
To laugh with you,
I would be there
To hold you close,
I would be there
To cry into,
I would be there
To comfort you,
I would be there
To love you,
I would be there
To protect you,
I would be there
Forever.
