How Dare You

How dare you

Break me down like this

Without the puzzle piece that fits

How could you

Allow me to believe

In you, that took all of me

Why did I

Care so much for you

Knew you’d never see me through

How come you

Never told me so

That all this time you wanted to go

And now I sit and contemplate

Was it me or is it fate

How dare you

Make me feel this way

Leaving me

No room to say

The moments brought me to my knees

How could you make me beg and plead

Thank you Razor Blade

The cool metal slides across my skin
Oh my god, I love that feeling
The feeling of pain
And what could be
The sweet scent is in the air
The sweetness of life
Seeping from my veins
And the razor gave me
This sweet release
I thank it
With every fiber left
In my being
It has been a great
Help
It has been my only
Friend
The one who always
Gave me
What I wanted
It gave me the greatest
Gift of all
It gave me death

Changes

Sitting there quietly
well behaved and polite
not like you at all
i remember when
you use to joke and kid around
running, jumping, and doing stupid things…
that was you
now you sit there
like an empty shell
i wish i could bring back
the life i once saw in you eyes
i wish i could bring back
you courageous soul
but it has left and shall not return
and forever shall you sit there quietly
being well behaved

Ill Be There

as the years pass your hair will start to gray.
but ill be there to hold you as time passes away.

as friends come and go one thing will stay the same.
that ill be there to love you as much as the day you took my name.

we will have problems just as all couples do.
but out love is unconditonal it will be there to see us through.

if ever you feel our love start to fade.
our love will be there to show you we have it made.

when your feeling low and your having a bad day.
ill be there with you to kiss the pain away.

Let Me Be

Just let me live my life.
I’m not hurting anyone.
Why do I have to pay a price,
because of the person I’ve become?

I don’t treat you differently,
because of what you believe in,
yet you insist on tormenting me,
because of your insecurities within.

Your judgements always stand pending,
awaiting their release,
searching for a victim,
never met with peace.

No one deserves this treatment,
and I’m not as different as you concieve,
but I’m sick of dealing with your resentments,
because you’re just too damn naive.

Governed

Slipping up on fates design. No destination the road winds. Driver seat handed over to those, blind to the heart, mind, and soul No destination the road winds. Slipping up on fates design.

Existence

Tragic is a life wrecked and sewn. Battling lessons that come hard. Sadly the front is never far off. Truncating each chapter learned. Once again the lessons taught.

home

heat and ice alone
tires and flat crumbs corrupting my old home
silence makes me deaf
floating across the world, in gods steps
atrocious reasoning, i fear for all of time.
so loud and dark, i step away
taunting and spitting down my throat with poisoned wine
greasy hearts and sticky prints etched my soul, content with foul play
what have i become.
bastardized
tainted ethics
nothing but pessimism shaped like a plum
parasites and paralyzed
i demand to be carried and moved
satisfying the bellowing thirsty ticks

Fights

Fights

Strangers in the night draw draggers in fright

There’s got to be a better way to settle this fight

Put away your weapons of anger

Run away from the danger

Shelter yourself in a cave

Die down there instead of being brave

Combat those demons in the sun

And you will find a new freedom is won

Thank You

Thank you for the blue skies, that fill my eyes, and the green grass that grows beyond the tall trees

For the privalige of watching all four seasons, summer, winter, spring and fall, come back every year, just to pay me a call

For flowing streams and sun beams, grapes of plenty, and all these beautiful things

For all the animals great and small, and the mountains you made to stretch wide and tall

But most of all, I thank you for, a beautiful heart and sensitive being, the beauty inside that gives me meaning
