it was all going to go wrong
the good lost, sobbing and mourning
there, there, what went to happen
first come martin, peeping through the window
a weekly moment of laughter and cuddle
then dan. dan stick around for a while
dinners in cosy restaurants and lunches in sunny esplanades
roses to my desk and cake slices to follow
peter brought his green-greyish eyes
long talks and friendliness
summer saw to spanish lads
ramon, flamboyant and witty, juan serious and spartan
martin stills around. he is always around
goofing, teasing, take the game one step further
martin must play smart
because there is shaun, his brother
of the swift manner and cocky talk
summer returned. with it andrew took a chance
daring paid off. swirling he got me
one, two, three, four, weekend journeys
or many more, has count i lost
to beach andrew went. need not to worry
a fine pair of blue eyes showed up
charming the gap
those who pass by, in a glance
just smirks, winks, hellos, do you want a drink?
i’ve forgotten the names i never new
but roger i remember. after a night of wonders
he took me dancing in the roundabout
so gentle the goodbye kiss
martin, of course, is still around. he is always around
never ceases to amuse and entertain me
but the grace of shy henry,
lord of the lovely smile and mesmerizing gaze
captured my unremitting favours
what a 20 months these have been!

baldness, love and defiance
a two of hearts dating the moon
everybody has secrets
no long the book can be written
if on the roundabout i turn left
i find happiness
if on the roundabout i turn right
happiness i find
eyes so close, so close to the cliff
an itching beneath the skin
a stomach ache
keep it hidden, tell no one
if on the roundabout i turn left
i find happiness
if on the roundabout i turn right
happiness i find

let’s leap, my dear
even to a derelict house
let’s leap
and get wrapped and wrapped
in our quirky grace
knees covered with a blanket
of silvery bees
let’s leap, my dear, let’s leap
throw caution to fire
prudence to salt
be trailblazers, take the risk of dare
my gift to you
is of no understandement
one, two, three steps,
let’s leap
and if you’re my change, be it

like a change to come
a grip recoils a glimpse of hope
when starting to see a million possibilities
where there was none
i fall in love with an old song
and even if “torn between jupiter and apollo”
i will not account to anyone
a swagger, bold gesture, a swift manner
that entices the tip of my lips
conjures a pair of hazelnut eyes
so sweet and robed of malice
and never an assortment of tea biscuits
has brought me so much mirth

a bad boy with a heart of gold
throws a dot of crimson jello
has the sun rises and the thunder cracks
if my backbone had been broken
maybe it all was cleared at once
that day you were away, I took your bed
in the morning, four times I washed my skin
tiny drops of you, fuzzy glow
a castle of ice cubes, a tray of jade
amazing whims, a jointure of swirls
a roaring fire, caged lion, and in no time
i would like to fully see what those trousers hide

that curious smile of yours intrigued me
i’m not distracted from my body
just keep myself away from disenchantment
showered with attention, charmed sweetly
still not liking to account to anyone
I started to perceive a thousand possibilities
- far more shinier – where nothing was
one foot on hold, maybe unwanted sadness
would creep again, I begin allowing
a sunnier, summery flare in
if for nothing more, for you
