#2 My, Oh, My

(Josie Sayz: This is the second poem from my ‘Rollercoaster Rainbow’ anthology. It was inspired by my Taylor Swift obsession.)

You hug me at my door
Then we get into your car.
You drive us to your house,
We know it isn’t that far.
Then we get out of the car,
You open up your door.
You lean in for a kiss,
Then we cuddle some more.
And that’s when you said,
“My, oh, my,
Girl you’ve got me hypnotised.
Why can’t you see
That you’re the only girl for me.”
You wait ‘til were alone,
Then you make your move,
Run a hand through my hair –
You’ve got nothing to lose.
You lock the door.
You come inside.
You stroke my hair.
I look into your eyes.
I love it when you said,
“My, oh, my,
Girl you’ve got me hypnotised.
Why can’t you see
That you’re the only girl for me.”
Then I got scared.
What if we were never meant to be?
You hold me tight
And tell me that I’m being so silly.
You said:
“No one has ever made me feel this way,
I promise that I’ll never make you run away.”
And that’s when I said,
“My, oh, my,
Boy you’ve got me hypnotised.
I almost can’t believe
That you’re the perfect one for me.”
I love it when you said,
“My, oh, my,
Girl you’ve got me hypnotised.
Wish you could see
That you’re the only one for me.”

Things I'll Never Say

(Josie Sayz: I have a folder which I have called ‘Things I’ll Never Say. It’s full of letters, notes and poems of things that I want to/wish that I could say to certain people, but for various reasons choose not to. It could be a spur-of-the-moment rant, a jealous rage, something that the other person isn’t ready for or just won’t understand. To get it off my chest and prevent myself from bottling it up, I write everything down. It could be in the forms of letters, poems, stories or just a bullet-point list. All of the things that I’ll never say all get placed in this folder. This is a poem that I wrote for that folder entitled: ‘Things I’ll Never Say’.)

Things I’ll Never Say
Got the bus to miles away.
Only wish that I could stay.
Didn’t want to end this way.
Never want to see you hurt.
There’s a lesson I’ve gotta learn.
It’s never gonna be my turn.
As I drive away,
These things I’ll never say…
I hate it when you cut your hair,
When you act like you don’t care.
I hate you working through the night.
Wish you were there to kiss goodnight.
I only want to live with you,
Feels like you haven’t got a clue.
I wanna dance with you in the rain.
Sometimes you’re driving me insane.
I wanna be with you every day.
And I wanna marry you someday.
These things I’ll never say.
I love the way you care,
And your dark and curly hair -
Always wishing that you were there.
The one to hold me tight,
In the middle of the night.
I’m leaving ‘cause I don’t wanna start a fight.
Watching you fade away,
These things I’ll never say…
I hate it when you cut your hair,
When you act like you don’t care.
I hate you working through the night.
Wish you were there to kiss goodnight.
I only want to live with you,
Feels like you haven’t got a clue.
I wanna dance with you in the rain.
Sometimes you’re driving me insane.
I wanna be with you every day.
And I wanna marry you someday.
These things I’ll never say.
You always were my panda bear.
My heart begins to tear.
I miss the way you smile when you stare,
When you run your hands through my hair.
My patience it starts to wear.
Your kind of love is very rare.
I guess that life is unfair.
Maybe I can meet you there.
These things I’ll never say…
I hate it when you cut your hair,
When you act like you don’t care.
I hate you working through the night.
Wish you were there to kiss goodnight.
I only want to live with you,
Feels like you haven’t got a clue.
I wanna dance with you in the rain.
Sometimes you’re driving me insane.
I wanna be with you every day.
And I wanna marry you someday.
These things I’ll never say.
All these things I’ll never say.
