MEANT FOR ME
Engaged in an argument that is silent in my head,
I know the way to go but I want to stay instead.
Rather than move towards what I know is certain peace,
I hang on to a hope that I can change these faltered things.
I hang on to a hope that I can erase her from your mind.
At times barely I cope with the things you say sometimes.
We both know when you don't act right.
You never see what it does inside.
I could tell you what it could be like,
if there weren't things that you always hide.
As long as there is the existence of...

NOW
Faded into a memory
is the way your thoughts of her should be.
The trouble your having with getting it right
is based on an illusion you keep inside.
I don't know how many times Ive told you
words of logic that you will not hear.
My voice still silent , you don't deserve me.
Soon enough it should all come clear.
The wind can blow in any direction
when you sit on a fence waiting for someone to decide.
Even if I am not your ideal selection
I will make sure she isn't part of your life.
If you just opened your eyes
you would see...
is the way your thoughts of her should be.
The trouble your having with getting it right
is based on an illusion you keep inside.
I don't know how many times Ive told you
words of logic that you will not hear.

PEOPLE
Simple people go through changes.
Hardened people ignore the truth.
Enchanted people invent privileges
that saddened people wish they could do.
Honest people feel everyone's pain.
Crazy people wear many disguises.
Special people are a labor of love.
All these people make compromises...
to live.

ADDICTION
(Hitler invented a form of meth in WWII so his soldiers would stay awake and fight longer.)
Unborn
Unheard
Unwelcome
He comes,
in an earthquake of splendor;
"Evil Thief of Forever".
Controller of direction
for all of the woes-
an individual can imagine.
He patiently slows.
In a mask-
In a castle-
Guiding light-
He persuades:
- the naive to follow
- and the old to obey.
Whichever outfit imagined,
as a prince or as a moon;
he can do it to destroy me
if I allow Him to.

LIAR
I wonder how it works out in your head,
if the lie you create comes out like its said.
Do you quickly rule out more complicated thoughts,
...or simply not think at all?
But more so, I'm curious if I'm suppose to believe.
Does it matter if I accept what you say?
Are you bothered by questions because I can see
that you're so full of shit every minute, every day?
Maybe that's why you're so anxious to blame,
your miserable follies on another persons name.
Any argument started with you is from guilt,
that you own alone,
lacking substance...

GUILT
Remembering your violent arguments past ,
does nothing to help you realize today,
that the person you experienced those episodes with,
keeps you stuck in a rut of increasing decay.
Break free from the anxiety of repeated behavior.
Are you really naive to what I do?
Or, are you pretending that you can't move on,
because of some dream that has always been wrong?
Or maybe, you are just selfish and cold,
clinging onto the new and also the old.
You give me no chance when she doesn't deserve one.
In time you will ask and the answer will be none....

ABSENCE
I anticipated a sort of disappointment.
I had no idea what it would be.
I thought about it all the time.
It would invade my every dream.
I questioned what your loyalty would be.
I really had no clue.
Absence is the only test,
that brings out what people do.
Not only was my disappointment
more than I suspected.
It saddened my heart to realize
you didn't try to prevent it.
I guess I need to really decide
what it is I should do with you in my life.
I am beside myself not knowing the way.
What I thought I knew doesn't help...
I had no idea what it would be.

AFTER- LIFE
20 steps up to the pearly gates
-someone counted and wrote it in a book.
God awaits in a dress
as we negotiate
our loyalty among the others that will look.
kings and queens make their mark
by events that change a world;
- and laws become the guidelines
for every boy and girl.
Led always by the hand
and seldom by the voice,
billboards of society
don't offer any choice.
We do what we are told
or we will not survive.
So, I ask , do you believe
that there is an after-life??

LOVE
You are cruel.
You invade my voice.
I wish you invisible,
but it's not my choice.
All my years,
have been devoted to you.
You nasty little feeling
that I don't want to....
own or borrow or recognize.
I don't even have a decent disguise.
When I try to ignore you ,
You disrupt my sleep,
my morning , my lunch, my everything.
Just go away and I would be just fine.
I might be able to focus and make sense of my life.
My world somehow became devoted to you,
successfully ruining everything I pursue.
Realistically...
