hope is lost on you
We are not yet dead
These words you have so clearly said
What does this mean
Will you stay next to me till we grow old
Is something left for us a love still to hold
Are any more beats for me left in your heart
Or is this truly where we part
What is done is now in the past
Can the love we had come back and last
What pain have I put you in
I feel no hope for a new us aging
My pain has torn all hope from me
All I have is my own emotional misery
What we have done and now we have said
We are to be soon forever unwed
The broken vows we...

love emptied into Renee
Goodbye Renee we are at our end
Goodness has left this old friend
All I have left is my pain and hate
I can not live like this I can not wait
The love is all gone form this body now
The shell that remains dose not know how
I had plans for us you know
And now God hates me so
I hear him laughing right now from above
The pain all encompassing its all I have to love
Nothing to hope for
Nothing left to win this war
The battles are all over and hatreds won
At least it all will soon be done
The last words I will probably say
Is how much I...

if only I could take it
Can not close my eye
So many reasons why
Can't sleep at night
Not even in the light
Pain has taken me
No hope no possibility
The pills don't fix it anymore
Another trip to the drug store
My new Dr will write the scripts
Now More tests and therapy trips
The same story has been told
It will be like this till I am old
My life is a bad joke
Pass the blunt i need a toke
Need some TLC from THC
Marinol might just help me
Some times I want to die
I spend hours just trying not to cry
Other days all I do is sleep
Anything...

Pills where have you gone
Morning light
Awakening all through the night
Pain so great
Medicine cant wait
Find the pill
Fight your will
The crack of the seal
Silence upon reveal
Where have they all gone
Her promise broken again to pawn
Emptiness in this bottle now
She sold them again but how
She was gone all when I was awake
Or am I a fool for goodness sake
Struggling just to get out of bed
My pain takes me out of my head
My body hurts so great
This time I can not wait
Help me I text her cell
What will be I can not tell
How long for her to...
Awakening all through the night

Or am I a fool for goodness sake

My pain takes me out of my head
My body hurts so great

Broken Vows
Her father was a cheater she remembers all her life
Never was he faithful to his beloved wife
She promised on our wedding day
She swore the words I heard her say
Through good and bad sickness and health
I thought our love was the greatest wealth
The first time was just two years in
She swore to God never again
The second time I am not sure exactly the date
This was just my kind of fate
Next she was caught with an old work friend
She promised it to would end
We have been through so much now
Our marriage is no longer about the vow
So...

last bath
Reflection in the silver
So beautiful the memory
A face I once knew
Looking back at me
Now Cold as ice
In this hot bath
Held tight to the flesh
Pulled hard downward
Warmth upon the wrists
Heat from the tub around my body
Color red so real mixing now
Steam flowing past
What has just been done
No going back now
Am I all alone
Its just begun
The pain floating away
What will come of me now
Wondering what I have done
Is anybody out there
What was that sound
Darkness falls
Eyes growing heavy
Drum drum drum...
So beautiful the memory

one night of love a lifetime sentence
Breath in her ear
The warmth so near
Hands on her hips
His presence ageist her lips
Passion in thought and mind
Held tight from behind
The heat of two bodies tight
Sweet sweat all through the night
No boundaries left unexplored
Every inch to be adored
Thinking it will never end
Knowing you’ve passed the just a friend
Desire from lust in deed
Planting a more permanent seed
With the morning sun rise
Never having shut your eyes
Ten months will pass from now
The Unexpected but always known how
Willing to make it work
Do...

tears for the love of my children
When my child is hurt I take control and fix everything
Stop the pain and stop the sting
I will make it better daddy is here
kiss and hold them tell them it will be ok my dear
and latter when they are fast asleep
on my great warm and soft chest without a peep
my tears of joy they'll be ok
fall down upon their head that thankful day
I thank God I have them all
Its hard to watch your babies fall
Even when they reach that age
They know it all yelled with teen rage
U hold them in your heart so tight
and pray to God they come home safe each and...

Married Broken Heart
I was married and had a wife
Thought this was the best of life
Twas hard to say the least
Marriage is a fickle beast
you work to make it right
In the end there’s always a fight
you try real hard to do good
In terms of better you no you could
Days come and nights go
Like rough waves tossing you to and fro
Smiles seem to slip away
As a loving touch escapes the day
Growing old together was the plan
But lately you do what you can
Trying hard to just keep it together
Once just love got you through the real tough weather
Some times...

never Enough
its not enough to start all over again
its not enough to always get the win
Its not enough to cry yourself to sleep every night
its not enough to never start the fight
its not enough to deal with rejection & lies
its not enough to have limited tries
its not enough to live with pain so great
its not enough to be told to always wait
Its not enough to spend your last dollar bill
its not enough to take the pill
its not enough to know you loose every time
its not enough to have nothing to rhyme
its not enough to care even when they don't
its...
