August 24th 1993

The beginning of spring
We left school early
Ice creams and a walk in the park
Dad had to explain, Amy’s very young
I walk off alone
“Granddad died this morning”
Life’s never been the same


May 20th 2003

Trips through the city
Walking all day
Trains and buses
I first kissed her at the station
The train arrived to soon


December 2nd 1999

A heavy heart
A whispered word
A last glance
These people shaped my life
Most I never saw again


April 4th 2003

You don’t have a license
Iris on the radio
We walk the last mile.

Lying together, the sun goes down
I’m too nervous to move
You hold my hand tight
I just want you to know who I am


January 29th 2004

Whispers through a tent flap
A girl who thinks I'm funny.

My friend strikes me
Again and again
nose bleeds a little
What just happened, Why?
I didn’t talk anymore that night


December 31st 1989

Mum and dad are inside
The party goes on
So this is what midnight feels like
I fell asleep on the grass


February 14th 2004

Strange faces, places
I'm there just for her.
A laughing stock
The joke is on me.

The worst night
Love that never was.

I crashed my car on the way home
