Be patient
Just be patient, the storm is almost over.
Be patient, your time will come.
Be patient, because this pain you feel inside will subside and that cloud will be lifted.
No longer will it follow you around to darken your days
No longer will you feel this empty and hollow, but full.
Full of life. Full of love. Full of joy.
Free of the stress that ties you down
Just be patient, the end is near
No more lonely days and tireless nights
No more restless thoughts from sad dreams
No more fuss
No more fights
No more thinking...
Be patient, your time will come.
Be patient, because this pain you feel inside will subside and that cloud will be lifted.
No longer will it follow you around to darken your days
No longer will you feel this empty and hollow, but full.
Full of life. Full of love. Full of joy.
Free of the stress that ties you down
Just be patient, the end is near
No more lonely days and tireless nights
No more restless thoughts from sad dreams
No more fuss
No more fights
No more thinking...

Hell
Fire and brimstone. Demons and devils. This is what most would imagine hell as.
But hell isn’t below but above.
It surrounds us daily to cloud our minds.
It eclipses the good within, to bring the hate and envy to the surface of our existence.
It influences our lives and have us accepting false idols as truth tellers
It turns boys into men and girls to women before their time.
It corrupts the innocent and turn them to crime just to survive.
This hell is on the surface and it never rest. It makes the weak feel strong with the pull of a...

Falling
I caught myself falling again. Wondering if this depression I feel will forever hold me by the neck.
Squeezing tighter with every breath that it takes. Suffocating me with the thought of failure, that which constantly creeps into my subconscious.
Holding back the tears from slowly falling down my cheek. Keeping me in a half sleep and half awake daze.
Pondering if this life is worth the pain of being bound to this world, when I could end it now, releasing myself to drift away into a haze.

Reflection of Me
I see a reflection but it’s not me.
Or at least not the man I’m destined to be.
This man has become doubtful and lifeless and hides the pain he feels behind false hopes and gullible illusion he set upon himself
He is the man I never thought I see
But there he is; staring right at me
With a smile on his face that lies with commitment
That could fool anyone else into thinking “yeah he’ll be fine”
But with a little bit more attention, you’ll see that the his smile is actually a frown
This man I see has lost his...

I Should Never Have
I should never have fallen in love with you.
Well, that's something I'd like to say, to justify the regret I feel for making the effort to make you stay. Only for you to make me feel rejected and neglected.
I should never have fallen in love with you.
I should have accepted the reality that this between us was a fantasy.
But I let the hope of us cloud the things that were obviously there for me to see.
I should never have fallen in love with you.
What I should have done was let you do whatever you wanted and walked away.

No title
I’m slowly dying inside, but I continue to hide this pain i feel to avoid feeling like a burden to others. So I go about my day, with a smile and a laugh, to keep up the appearance that everything will be okay. But, day in and day out I wonder if I’ll be alright. I’m stuck in a cycle of depression that I can’t see a way out. I would bow my head and pray if the results I want to see will spill out and make the restless night end and these damning thoughts, cease filling my head with doubts. I want to be better, I want to do better, not just for me but for my family, for the ones I love the...

Doubts
Lately you only been giving me nothing but doubts
Will I ever measure up?
Will I ever receive the same love I give?
Will I ever be enough of a man, to take your hand and make you the woman of my dreams,
the woman I’ll die for
the woman I’ll do time for
the woman that showed me she cared up until the day I fell
I mean failed to be the one you could come to.
So now I’m only filled with doubts
Do you still love me?
Do you still want this life like we planned in the past?
Do you still want to make what we have last,
until both of us...

Stay positive
It’s hard to stay positive, When it seems that you’re only alive to see your downfall.
To feel as if this heart that has been abused and broken so so many times,
to a point finally ending it all seem like your only way out,
Feels better then feeling as if you’re not meant for love or to be loved.
To suffer from this weight you put on yourself to not feel like the disappointment in your family.
To feel as if you should be the provider and give your all to those that could care less about how you are deep down.
To feel as if your life is spiraling...

What’s The Point
What’s the point?
Why make noise to be heard when you’re voice is still drowned out.
What’s the point in making a scene, when the reason for your actions get overlooked.
What’s the point?
Why point fingers and blame this or that. When that and this was never an issue, but a smokescreen to lure you off track of the real problems that weigh on our backs.
What’s the point in taking a stand for something, when the change is a temporary fix.
To bring light upon the injustice of the world. If the justice you seek only ends up with more bodies...

I’m Sorry
I’m sorry for all the wrong I did
In retaliation to the way you made me feel
I’m sorry for all the lies I told
Even if I was the one who said let’s keep it real
I’m sorry for all the pain I caused
Just because I was hurting and didn’t know what to do
I’m sorry for all the times I said we are good
Even if I knew it wasn’t true
I’m sorry for games I played
I know that it wasn’t fair to you
I’m sorry for how way things went
I didn’t mean to put all the blame on you
I’m sorry for saying sorry ...
In retaliation to the way you made me feel
I’m sorry for all the lies I told
Even if I was the one who said let’s keep it real

I’m sorry for all the times I said we are good
Even if I knew it wasn’t true
I’m sorry for games I played
I know that it wasn’t fair to you

I’m sorry for saying sorry ...

Cold Hearted
You hated me when I was there and you hated me if I wasn’t.
So what am I to you, if I’m not just something that is supposed to be with you through thick and thin, through hail sleet and snow, through all the pain you constantly drag me through?
During your darkest times, I was there. When you felt like all hope was loss and an end to it was your way out. I was there to push those thoughts out and remind you that there are better times to come.
Even after you put me through so much pain and your refusal to acknowledge me. To let others get close to me, so...

Despair(working title)
Plagued with thoughts of ending it all, I sit with my back against the wall.
With head buried deep between my arms, I start to wonder where did it all go wrong.
Before today, I remember how life was much better. When smiles and laughter filled the air, never revealing this crippling despair and how I just wish it would all just go away.
The lies...
the fake love...
the false hope...
Just make it all disappear with a snap of a finger. Instead of letting this depression and self loathing linger.
Take everything back and...
