cardiff town centre

Old scars lazily covered

with flowerbed and tree bandaids.

Your deep green park lungs

clogged with cancer
from smug student disposable bbqs.
My love for you fades.

This place I no longer care,
to remember.
Just kidding yourself

Cardiff town centre.

Square tall apartment buildings
stand eggbox empty like my heart.

Soul sold down the Taff
asbo seagulls

meancing war cry squawk then laugh.
Sitting on wasted street art

Straight from uni deadend job

soul bleeds weekend boozes will renew.

Down St Marys street
the weekend crew

blue jeaned, checked shirt, brown shoed.
Broken feeling inside blue.

This place I no longer care,
to remember.
Just kidding yourself

Cardiff town centre.

With your lack of flare
gullible tourists robbed
you dont seem to care.
Big city dreams
things seem as they seem
you fail again.

This place I no longer care,
to remember.
Just kidding yourself

Cardiff town centre.

my failure

Was invited, I should of been there,
your big day, you wanted to share
how do I respond to your generosity?
Being always to me a great big softee.
Those promises made, I never kept,
sat at home on your day and wept.
nothing I can do will ever repay
I have no excuses nothing I say,
can put me where I should of been
there for you friend, I could of seen
that big smile, as you start your life
as a lucky mans trouble and strife.
