Too Many Dry Tears
i awake to the sound of my broken heartbeat
the feeling of a struggling survivor tring to maintain
my grip on reality is slowly easing up
times are getting harder to cope with the fact that you are gone
no one understands the pressure mounting inside my once occupied being
you left me here to linger in your problems
my emotions are blocked by internal suffocation
rejection from any one who tries to make me understand
i live for the moment because the futures too far away
they stole your life from you and gave themselves a name
my friend my amigo my brethren you are all i know
you came into this world blazing guns and left it riddled by bullets
somewhere in the HEAVENS you rest up above
here on earth i dont sleep reminiscing on what was
you showed me how it was to be a real cat
holding on to your beliefs and raising your family
peole say you lived on the edge
i say they never lived at all
to come back home on that day and find out they took you away
in such a midevil fashion was too much
i still choke up when i think of you
its crazy because time will never erase the past
it only makes things worse
well if all i can do to communicate with you
is write a poem and remembering you
then for this moment we are together
living loving and resting forever
I MISS YOU PRESTON!!!
