Pictures from Devonport by SMT

Wrote this a little while ago as song lyrics for a friend. 

Haven't given it to them and now want to pretend–it's a poem!

Unequals.

There is an inequity.

There is

an inequity oh my

love, oh can’t you see.

You are the shore and

I am the sky.

I’ve tasted your tears they’re not salted

when you cry

oh my oh my, love.

You’re not sure anymore

you’re not my sea shore anymore.

So why did you come then

did the tide drift you in?

You arrived here too fast

when I didn’t even know you could swim.

Said you came on a whim.

Oh my oh my, love

let’s begin.

Let’s begin again.

Stay-up-late-sleep-in-again.

Swap the stamps from where we’ve been.

End up in too deep again.

Oh–

but you say you’re not sure.

Maybe we've coasted too different 

shores 

can't co-ordinate anymore. 

And there is that inequity.

There is an unequal amount of love

between you and me.

I’m experiencing deficiency

in this lack of efficiency

together swapped for different seas

always would be you and me

Sunk in-inequity.
