Sleepless Nights Vol Ii

This is just another tale from the 
crypt another one bites the dust I 
guess she didn't make the guest list, 
just another enigma, that's what she 
called me when she couldn't paint 
this picture but I say she should've 
just drunk from another pitcher, 
assumptions turns into to a failed 
attempt to someone who could 
decrypt ya thoughts actions 
emotions, and weeks later it still 
hasn't soaked in, so it seeps in threw 
the cracks of past feelings but I 
refuse to look back on my life but 
still I envision the ghost of my past, 
taking me back down memory lane, 
but I know better my present is a 
gift and my past is something I 
wouldn't exchange, no matter how it 
looks is that the reason I'm reading 
so many books, I guess I'm looking 
for the secrets that they hid, will I 
find out it was indeed the truth or 
another fictitious fib, so I open that 
door that door without hesitation 
knowing that if I expose the truth 
they might send me on my final 
destination, so it's do or die and my 
life has an expiration date on it 
anyway I understand I'm damned if 
I do, so hello to sleepless nights 
once more with no regrets as I 
expose the truth
