Hurt
I REMEMBER WHEN YOU CALLED ME YOUR POETIC JUSTICE..
NOW IM JUST POETIC..
ANOTHER HEART SPEAKING THRU WORDS..
I STEPPED BACK SO YOU COULD BE THE MAN..
DROPPED BACK INTO THE SCENERY
SO YOU COULD STAND TALL
DESPITE MY FEELINGS I WANTED YOU TO HAVE IT ALL.
NOW LOOK AT ME...LEFT BEHIND CUS YOU ACTUALLY FORGOT ME..
CANT BE MAD I SET MY SELF UP FOR THIS SHYT
TEARS HELD BACK..CUS I KNEW "YOU" SECRETLY HATED US
WITH NO HESITATION WIT U IS WHERE I'D LAY DWN
SOUL OPEN HEART READY FOR WAR..BODY WAS MY TEMPLE
BUT GIVING IT TO I FELT I HAD MORE....
NOW IM JUST POETIC..
ANOTHER HEART SPEAKING THRU WORDS..
I STEPPED BACK SO YOU COULD BE THE MAN..
DROPPED BACK INTO THE SCENERY
SO YOU COULD STAND TALL
DESPITE MY FEELINGS I WANTED YOU TO HAVE IT ALL.
NOW LOOK AT ME...LEFT BEHIND CUS YOU ACTUALLY FORGOT ME..
CANT BE MAD I SET MY SELF UP FOR THIS SHYT
TEARS HELD BACK..CUS I KNEW "YOU" SECRETLY HATED US
WITH NO HESITATION WIT U IS WHERE I'D LAY DWN
SOUL OPEN HEART READY FOR WAR..BODY WAS MY TEMPLE
BUT GIVING IT TO I FELT I HAD MORE....

Emotion
I was too anxious to fall in love
And then It happen...
.. And I was fallen to fast
Cause when I did...
I fell... To HARD...
And the one I thought, would cushion my fall.
Wasn't really there to catch me at all..
.....So now....
I'm Numb and broken beyond repair..
Unable to feel..All because the one I loved couldn't just keep it real...
We went to far,Now I'm pushed over the edge....
All becuase he made me feel less than low..
He took a huge piece of me..
Now I'm a empty soul..
And I cant find this thing called ME...
And then It happen...

Discouraged
Half of me wants to yell..
While the other half of me wants to bail...
From Life that is..
Sick of wearing this ungrateful grin on my face...
Tired of running this race,treading at the same pace...
Wanna just seclude my self into a tiny space..
With a window...
So I can look out and no one can look in on "ME"..
Tired am I..Of this feeling of Misery and pain..
Strain on my body..YESS..it wears this pitiful shame..
I tried to make things right..
Tried so hard..
But nothing worked..I still wanna take my life..
So when I go.....

Help
I felt that cold chill run down my back..
Closing my eyes praying to God..
That this form in all black just skips me..
Maybe if I ignore it,It'll pass lil old me
Those hands i once felt now so warm and rugged
Tears in my eyes,but I cant run from it.
Im stuck,Lord help me WAKEUP!!!
I need to feel the presence of you.
Just tell me what I should do..
I scream!!
The pressure is to much
A voice so loud
Now barely able to make sound
Im loosing this battle and yet I dont know how..
Help me...Balled up fetal position begging for LIFE..

I Felt The Cold Presence...
Its crazy how hard you'll fight..
...For love..
Fighting to win a war that's not meant to win.
Battle scars on...
These wrists...
Unseen bruishes worn on my heart.
I loved you then, and still i love you now.
Even tho these tears form a ocean..
You left me to... DROWN...
In my madness that is.
Wondering why we could'nt make it work
The one person I lusted so dearly
Now just another earth bound image...
With a cold smirk..
pulling at the pieces of what I have left.
Watching me unravel into the wind.
Even tho these wounds wont heal...

Silent
Scared
Hurt
But you lost care
Looking for grip
The hands who held me close
Now so cold,they let go
Tears
Aches and pains
The one I love
Broke me and I shattered like glass
Said he loved me
Guess our time seemed to have past
We expired
Scared
Hurt

Tears

2 faces
Everyone has 2 faces
but im just now seeing that side
The side who will look me str8 in the eyes
and sell me a ..LIE..
I believe it only cause I love you.
What i cant believe is the bullshyt you put me thru
Memeber you said its us against the world
But this whole time with you
Its been me fighting you in your world
No help,im stuck
No honesty,I ran outta luck
I dont wanna pull back my veil
and reveal my other side to you
Drama king,But this drama is what you choose.
Love me oh yea I heard that b4
Somewhere in a movie,now those...

PEN TALK
Another pen..filled with INK..
Helping me more lightly spill my emotions..
Tears falling..INK spilling..Hand SHAKING..
what can I do..
Reread the lines hoping my feelings change this mood..
Punctuation....COMMAS....NOUNS...AND VERBS...
Killing this paper...barely without...WORDS..
Pen...Black INK...balled fist...Grip tightly..holding the only way I choose to
let my heart speak...
White paper...BLUE lines....ball point pen...slowly describes...
This...RAGE...this GUILT...this SHAME..these TEARS...
Forgotten LOVE....but remembering..yesterdays...

Lie to me.....
Lie to me because knowing the honest truth hurts.
I just realized I lost myself in you,maybe that was worse.
But I need you to lie to me,so I can really see that all the bullshyt really does attract flies.
So i need you to flip the script and turn your so called truth into a lie,make it more believing cause i just want your lie.
Lie to me becuase maybe this kinda truth will help me move on.
Down on my luck trying to remain strong,Lies build me up while truth slows me down.SICK ass game but im playing now.
So lie to me because i need to hear those words roll off your...

The breeze from cold rain
pouring down on empty hearts
smothers you like heavy pain
seems like you cant find begin and misplaced start
Theres envy in every person you meet
some for good others just deceit
we aim for highs while getting struck with lows
excepting the pain we endure the blows
pouring down on empty hearts
smothers you like heavy pain
seems like you cant find begin and misplaced start
Theres envy in every person you meet
some for good others just deceit
we aim for highs while getting struck with lows
