I am...
I am the evil that lives inside of me.
I am the one I fear as time passes and grows quietly near.
For not a soul will ever know of a fallen tear.
Or how the evil carries me far and dear.
Like a love's whisper that will never part from my ear.
I am the creator of all I am.
A sinner and a saint, consciously never clear.
I am the one I fear as time passes and grows quietly near.
For not a soul will ever know of a fallen tear.
Or how the evil carries me far and dear.
Like a love's whisper that will never part from my ear.
I am the creator of all I am.
A sinner and a saint, consciously never clear.

Have You Seen Her
The pain of a woman is what I feel inside.
To think she's alone with no one along her side.
Life is so cruel, why does God let us cry?
The hatred for people creeps back into my mind.
I Love You So Much, Please find me in time.
Ill steadly pace, watch Bobs Burgers and get high.
Squiggly lines.

Lord
Thank you for the soul you have sent my way.
Thank you for her beauty that I will not take in vain.
Thank you for the purpose you have layed in my way.
Thank you for the love that she brings me every day.
Thank you for her smile, it seems to ease my pain.
Thank you for laughter, we both needed it the same.
Lord keep her next to me, cause she keeps me still sane.
But do take my anger, my frustation, and my shame.

My Hauntings
Why am I haunted by my Iraqi past?
Why is it my mind has caught up with me at last?
I try to hide the guilt, buried it with shame.
Fuck those idiots who claim anothers death as their fame.
The killer inside of me is who I subdue.
The killer inside of me has no real feelings for you.
Kill or be Killed is the only rule of this game.
But they don't tell you that nothing will ever be the same.
I pray for those soldiers whose lives I have drained.
To kill another man will always be in vain.

A marine's missing soul
Blink once, blink twice, now stare into my eyes.
Fill the pain I see, peer into a marine's mind.
Prayed once, prayed twice, no lord by my side.
Time to make choices of how to live a normal life.
When will I be free from the things I have seen?
I just want to know so I have a goal to acheive.
Iraq once, then back twice, when will I be fine?
I've came home along time ago but still waiting on my soul to arrive.
Fill the pain I see, peer into a marine's mind.
Prayed once, prayed twice, no lord by my side.

When will I be free from the things I have seen?

I've came home along time ago but still waiting on my soul to arrive.

A Marines Apology
Sorry to those mothers that I have made cry.
Sorry to those sisters for their brothers who have died.
Sorry to God for taking many of lives.
Sorry to the devil for my quota I deny.
Sorry to myself for losing my mind.
If I had a map, it would still be hard to find.
Sorry to my soul that I am running to hide.
A Marine and his rifle, will always be imprinted in time.
Sorry to those sisters for their brothers who have died.

A Marine and his rifle, will always be imprinted in time.

Dreams
I did not go looking for a love to replace my time.
But I met you September 1st in another venture into crime.
Who would have ever thought that it was you I would come to find?
I especially didn't think, that you would rob me for my mind.
The first day I met you, I needed you by my side.
An independent woman, who didn't give a shit what was mine.
Our lives are similar, as similar as can be.
We both had nothing, not even a future or dreams.
Why is it I like you so much, is yet to be seen.
But I've met many woman and you've...

Hot Springs
I met you under circumstances we probably wouldn't have ever met, but on the other hand, our paths crossed none the less. When I first met you, you truly caught my eye. I love the way you speak, every word emphasized with your eyes. You pulled away from me, but I could not resist. I had to get to know you, you seem unlike the rest. Our first date didn't go to plan, but the second was the best. If I could do it all over, I don't think I would got rest. I smell you through out my day, and picture you in my mind. It's only been two days, but i miss you by my side. Was this truly fate? Or god's...
