Forgive, Never Forget

From the first day we breathe to the day our heart stops, each day we live just another day bought. While high up above the sky seems so far, when the rain starts to fall it begins cleansing old scars. The life which you’ve lost won’t rest all alone; their memory lives deep down in your soul. Remember the tears you cried by their side, remember their smile and the arms you confide. Remember the past for it’s written in stone, prepare for a future

Four Letter Words

I have spent my life looking through the eyes of those around me. Gazing endlessly into eyes of strangers absorbing the pain they keep inside. I don’t want to believe this is the top, I don’t feel like this is all over. My love my loss, my pain it’s cost. Priceless and blatant it tears me apart; it leaves me hanging on to yesterday and standing still today. I am a child in a closet hiding from the screaming, the

My Preemptive Eulogy.

Sheltered, beneath the warmth of loves embrace, this world is not all that it appears to be. So many different shades of gray yet inside we are all still children. Not one of us truly wishes to grow up, for in our hearts we will live as children eternally. Life has a strange way of making us grow old; another responsibility leads to another failure. I sit here alone day in day out finding more and more ways to fight

Shattered

Wound around we come unbound, the ribbon unties as it hits the ground Falling now crawling we run from the night, the shattered remains of a lovers fight Broken unspoken the words of defeat, surrender inside no words left to speak Tragic its magic the power of time, unwritten unflawed by more useless rhymes Twisted I’ve shifted and sifted through sand, the grains now a river flow through my hands Running’s becoming what I feel is right, the one real solution defining

Is Anyone Ever Really Okay?

Are you okay? This is the life I live… What is wrong? The same things been broken all along. Is anyone really okay, knowing that inside of us all we are only lying to ourselves trying to piece together what it is we are supposed to be doing? Is it okay to not know how you feel at any given time? If you feel fine, but the world around you is asking what is wrong, your face isn’t lying, your

Running

You wear with you a smile, so beautiful and pure You’re walking by in strides, my pain you are the cure You’re scared and broken down, alone and by yourself You fight the endless waves, you’re screaming out for help Your life is taking chances, and never looking back Running towards the sunset, despite how they react You speak to me in riddles, I write to you in rhymes You place your heart before me, I tell you in good

Innocence

Five years old she’s got her mamas eyes Ribbons in her hair an angel in disguise She spreads her wings wishing she could fly And defines to me the true meaning of life. And through her eyes this world makes sense And beneath her smile lies only innocence Her mama taught her two wrongs don’t make a right As war surrounds us her tears beg me not to fight Catch my breath, dry my eyes, and begin to walk away

The New Kid on the Block

It was cold out; somehow it seemed colder than normal on this mid summer day. As I walked alone down the street to my house I noticed that someone new was moving in two doors down. With a look of intrigue on my face I made my way to my front door and quickly ran to the window pulling the blinds apart to get a peak of who is moving into the house that has remained vacant for the past

True Love

They tell you believe in love at first sight In times like now I wish they were right They tell you true love is worth the fight But where are they on these lonely nights Lying here with a paper and a pen Finding the words where I love you begins Searching now for the answers why True love’s always so hard to find. They tell you love will conquer all But are they there to break your fall They
