Weep and Laughter

As I sit on here on the edge of the roof
with a bottle in my hand.
I think back to a time where everything
was out of place and my life was going nowhere

The abuse that was cast upon me
as you took every inch of me
and tore me down
You were good to me
but yet you were so cruel

I take sip,as I watch the sun rise
I think back to same period of my life
and also remember your slick ways
the way that kept me around

Everyday was different than before
when you stayed with me
From city to city and town to town
We sat by the ocean as we wept
in our own laughter

That was our better days
and the best days of our lives
a crash of lightning and a crack thunder
came crashing down as we took in our last laugh.

I close my eyes as the sun is up
I feel the rays on my face
as I lay there with an empty bottle
The bottle rolls out of my hand
and a few moments later I feel it break

As I heard the impact,it took me back
to the last kiss we shared
Everything was getting better,but I knew
I had to leave because our happiness
never lasted forever

I weep for the bad and laugh for the good
as I say good night to the world...and good luck to you
