Not finished and I'm sure you'll be glad to hear that is the last idea I have in my head, I probably won't write again for six months now!
Told me he did-
“See this face?
I broke each one
Of my dirty fingers to
Form a smile for you-
For you:
I shattered the legs on my comb,
Just to brush my thinning hair
All the way across my face.
Oh a kiss wouldn’t hurt would it?!”
A kiss I said, can't suppose why not! Just the one though!
“Just warning, I lost my teeth-
Trying to say your name I was
Lin....
No good, not enough strength
Lin....
No not all,
You loved me though!
If I’m not still that man-
God knows who is...
The Doc said, “Things won’t be
Quite the same!”
I had to ask him what he had meant,
He didn’t say though.
Shame I had to leave-
Things were just starting to hot up.”
In what way?
“Really cold it was to start off,
All I could think was, “how odd, how odd,”
It being summer an all.
Well at any rate, things started off all right.
Until the little kid, Billy his name was went
Got himself killed, fool he was, right fool!
All went downhill didn’t it!
Ran! Fast as I could- well I think I did
Got shot, just as well really!
Would have been done for cowardice, if I didn’t
Have a bullet nestled in my breast!”
“All I could think of was real coffee, delicious!
And summer on the beach, god knows why-
Seen enough sand I have,
And music...”
And me?!
“Didn’t want to did I!
Bullet in my chest remember!
Last thing I would have wanted was to
See that beautiful face of yours!
I fell asleep singing our song-
Irritating thing was I couldn’t remember
The words.
Ended up singing sea shanties for all
I was worth.”
