Drained
Silenced tinged with anger
Feeling a void but it’s no stranger
You!! Left… Me
No warning, No signs
You parted with your goodbye
Angered in silence
Tears line up for a race
Fists balled up
Ready to throw punches
But my heart can’t take the impact
So I stand back
Looking into the clouds
Mad your there not here!
Feeling a void but it’s no stranger
You!! Left… Me
No warning, No signs
You parted with your goodbye
Angered in silence
Tears line up for a race
Fists balled up
Ready to throw punches
But my heart can’t take the impact
So I stand back
Looking into the clouds
Mad your there not here!

Tired
Someone said never argue with a fool
Because from a distance no one can tell ...who's who
I wake up look in the mirror and see a reflection
Not able to tell who i am ...anymore
Distorted and unsteady I get back in bed
Looking over at a significant other feeling like..Who's He
Feeling covered with dirty sheets and broken lies
Outta Breath....
No voice left...
I'm stuck...Stumbling into broken glass...His unleft past
and it haunts me
The one thing I pray to leave...God just let me breathe....
I'm gasping..
He's feeling Good
I'm feeling...

Giving up to gain NOTHING
I give up to give in
Dying on the inside
of a unforgiven sin
Not sure which way to go
I lost sight of the place i called home
Running a maze in broken glass
wishing the earth would heal my scars
I fall short yet again
Stumbling down hills
embracing short thrills
laughing for a moment
crying for eternity
feeling hopeless even in dreams
what a reality...Hoping it will soon hit me
Facing my mistakes and everything i've done
I give in to give up
facing broken trust
discarded love
Broken promises
A never ending hate...
Dying on the inside
of a unforgiven sin
Not sure which way to go
I lost sight of the place i called home
Running a maze in broken glass
wishing the earth would heal my scars
I fall short yet again
Stumbling down hills
embracing short thrills
laughing for a moment
crying for eternity
feeling hopeless even in dreams
what a reality...Hoping it will soon hit me
Facing my mistakes and everything i've done
I give in to give up
facing broken trust
discarded love
Broken promises
A never ending hate...

The Known vs The Unknown
You gave me your promises ..And broke each one
you'll fabricate our love and leave me broken from love
I thought I found different but it leaves me bottled up inside
Crying tears full of hatred that's so hard to hide
It seems your in love with 2 women
And refuse to let down your pride
You lay down with one and keep her on the side
Lying to the one you wish to marry
Just to keep the other sane
We go back n forth but who's to blame
you'll fabricate our love and leave me broken from love
I thought I found different but it leaves me bottled up inside
Crying tears full of hatred that's so hard to hide
It seems your in love with 2 women
And refuse to let down your pride
You lay down with one and keep her on the side
Lying to the one you wish to marry
Just to keep the other sane
We go back n forth but who's to blame

Do you mind if I hand you back your pain...
How long is forever really suppose to be
because in my head with you my forever was sitting next to me
but you chose to leave..
Said something in your heart no longer resembled we
and now I sit wishing I could hand you back the pain
but it hurts even when speaking of your name
but I have to act ok...
Because of the decisions you made
I have to say fine no really its ok with a blank face
because my pride refuses to show this emotion
The one of betrayal you wish I'd show
Instead i'll pretend every things perfect every time you decide you wanna...

No love
I think about the words you said,An I freeze up
Wondering how could it ever have been Love
If you could speak so bad about me..
So i sit in a static shock
Thinking and planning my next word
Speaking from anger to tare you down
Mouth begins to open but heart can't make a sound
So my face wears this frown
One of disappointment and hurt
Wanting to feel destroyed yet again
Falling victim to yet another heartless man
Who needed me to boost the ego he lacked
Guess you had to pretend to cut your heart some slack
Now i prepare to destroy you with...

Trying to get over it ...But do we really ever
Guess what Dad is my uncle
and moms his quick nut
talk about being loyal
the things niggas will do just to bust
I feel the pain but where the tears at

Guess i'm kinda two sided maybe i'm really crazy
Calling sumone uncle not knowing there your dad
wanting to be pissed but knowing what my mom went thru makes me mad.

Why....Can't I
It seems like I can't stop drying these eyes
Because inside I'm silently crying
Dried up tears on my face, but my emotions keep hiding
Away from the weight of the world that is
Smiling while dying inside just to keep from breaking
Pain so heavy on the inside
My heart no longer knows how to keep faking
So instead my fist ball up and I go into survival mode
Praying to God that this type of rage won't hold
Feeling so much hate towards those who do me wrong
Break me down leave me standing alone
Just so they can sit back and laugh
And watch me fight...

misunderstanding
You tell me to go and find my own man,like i wont reach out and have yours.
See the difference between you and i,are i was taught not to play with toys and lil boys.
Or insecure girls for that matter.
See what im after your pathetic lil mind could never phathom.
So when you stroke your ego wondering about the ifs and maybes of me and your man.
All i can do is sit back an laff.
Cause unlike you i will never be put in a situation of second guessin am i first or last.
Because the woman i am will never become a memory of a past you so call your future. ...

Defeated
DEFEATED
...BROKEN
....EGO BRUISED
.....HEART SHATTERED
PIECES STILL REMAIN
..UNHEALED WOUNDS
...BATTLE SCARS
....IM HURTING TRYNA BE STRONG
.....FACING THE MUSIC WANTING TO MOVE ON
DEADEND
..MY ROAD KEEPS BEING BLOCKED
...CAN'T FIND DIRECTION
....MY MIND IS MY OWN BODILY HARM
.....STUCK ON DARK STREETS LOOKING FOR PEACE
IM STILL LOST
..NO WHERE TO TURN
...NO GUIDE IN SIGHT
....EVEN DAYS LOOK LIKE STORMY NIGHTS
HOW DO I SAVE ME
..FROM ME
...HANDS SHAKING
....EYES WATERED
.....MY TEARS...
