"For Kristen Balish"
Another one to add to the list , R.I.P. girl you will be truely missed ~ I lost too many in this war I can no longer cry , it's just a normal thing now to say my goodbyes ~ This life is really short lived , watching another mother bury her own kid ~ I shake my head and though I can't stand it , it's become reality drugs have taken over the planet ~ I'll be strong and try not let the devil get the best of me , and everyday I will pray that you all will rest in peace ~ B.

"My true friends"
Everyday I feel so lonely , I look all around no girl no homies ~ Drugs use to be my friend until i put that shit down , now my paper and my pen are my true friends all around ~ The paper accepts my feelings when I express , the pen lets it flow feelings such good as sex ~ I wouldn't be me if I didn't have this , I thank the Lord everyday for I am blessed with a gift ~ Innertwined with every emotion this talent is channeled , onto this paper and even at times I get baffled ~ I can always be me forever no matter how long , the pen and pad has always had my back and never done me wrong ~ No...

"Suicide"
Nothing in this world could ever heal my pain , my soul has been damaged i'll never be the same ~ I been stuck at the bottom for 32 years , I've never been happy always crying sad tears ~ So I ask the lord why , why am I still here , cause nothings ever gotten better and I've lost all fear ~ I wonder everyday why my heart still beats , wish I can be with the deceased and join them in their peace ~ Cause all I have in this world is a pad and a pen , but all I really want is to have me a friend ~ To help me through these times cause it's hard to decide , if I should just call it quits and...

"The Mirror"
The mirror sees it all - from these scars to the pain behind these eyes , from what this man has become that I sometimes despise ~ It sees the frustration and hurt that no one else can , and I don't have to explain it cause it knows who I am ~ The mirror sees it all - from my smiles to my cries , it also sees the discust cause I'm in a world full of lies ~ When I talk to the glass and it listens to me speak , it sees the person that I am that's no longer weak ~ And in the reflection what do I see ? A 33 year old man who's name is Brett Lee ~ The mirror sees it all - one last look and I'm on...

"Depression"
Your'e such a bitch you alter my mind , you are nothing anyone seeks but everyone will find ~ Tearing away at my body and soul , these drugs and alcohol has taken it's toll ~ You have filled me with hate I will never be the same , it seems heaven isn't my fate just hell on the brain ~ You have ripped away all my hopes and dreams , my life is blinded like my eyes been hit with high beams ~ Yes you have gotten the best of me , and I would give my own life if you would just rest in peace ~ B.

"You know who you are"
All your'e doing is playing yourself , bashing and trashing your mind and your health ~ I've totally disected you , easy to read like a book simple as one plus two ~ Before you know it it's gonna be too late , you'll lose all love and only left for yourself is hate ~ The shadow you hide behind will cause more pain , only thinking about yourself and not thinking about change ~ No one will hear your secret crys if you don't express them , you put on a act and that smile is pretend ~ I hate to be honest but it's the truth when I say , that all you are doing is digging your own grave ~ And what I...

"My Love"
Love is silent yet again tonight , quiet as a grave in the dead of night ~ chained to loneliness it won't break free , these walls are too high that surround all of me ~ Like decaying rose petals scattered on the floor , mangled mutilated and lacerated by thorns ~ I wanna give it away but it just won't let me , another broken dream floats silent and empty ~ This love seems lost it has no path , my heart don't beat love because of my past ~ Trapping my thoughts in an ever increasing darkness , I don't want to admit it but I have become heartless ~ So after all this time I came to realize , my...

"Me"
My endurance for pain has became sky high , and what have I gained ? Finally a face with dry eyes ~ Heart turned cold no one left to trust , a new "me" will unfold backstabbers left in the dust ~ Now it's all about "me" I put myself before you , with a smile on my face days no longer blue ~ With no one by my side I did all alone , and it's all because of you I became more grown ~ Sunshine after the rain this life is so sweet , so thanks for all the pain cause I am no longer weak ~ Now in the future what will you see ? A middle finger bitch cause now it's all about...

"My purpose"
Everyday of my life I'm trying to find "my Purpose" , still can't get an answer as I walk this earth's surface ~ In my dreams I search for the dead and gone , and I find 'em and together we sit and mourn ~ Then i awake and reality hits , I'm still stuck living this life that's a bitch ~ When i think i'm right it's only mistakes I keep choosing , will I ever see the light cause I can't win for losing ~ The harder I fall the smarter I get , but I'm running out of time and I done took too many hits ~ All this wisdom I've gained I still feel empty , and if I pass today I hope the Lord...

"When I leave"
you will be saddened you'll take it to heart , but you must accept it was my time to part ~ from this gloomy place life's reached it's end , but i'm better off so dry your eyes my friend ~ too many ups and downs and barely at ease , now there's no more pain this body at eternal sleep ~ when you face the facts and know it's real ,you'll move on with your life and in time you'll heal ~ so pick up your head and don't drag your feet , cause when it's over for you again we'll meet ~ up above the Lord will take your soul , together again we'll walk the streets of gold ~ it could be tomorrow it...
