How

How can you break my heart into little pieces
slowly crushing my spirit
you understand that we are one and the same
our styles and mannerisms regarding others 
yet when it comes to one another I allow you in
you only act like I'm just another one of your friends
Its hard to want to be with you when I keep getting shut out
I’m easily replaced by other girls
the pain has my stomach in knots
you injure my once capable capacity to love and become vulnerable
it seems like you don’t care at all
deep down I know you understand
but regardless of how I act, dress, look, or how much money I could ever have, 
you will never care for me as I do for you. 
which slowly breaks my heart into little pieces

Portrait

Waking up I saw you.
The person you have become.
Someone who is selfish.
Living as the only one.

Watching out for your own.
Not a care in the world.
Did anyone ever say to you
This simply cannot be done?

Pushing away the well meaning hand.
Giving others a piece of your mind.
Thinking really nobody cares.
Living in blindness of your own skin.

You ask for the advice 
Then twist what others say
Doing exactly what you please.
Laughing in the face of others pain.

Life can be a friend if you take the helping hand.
Do not think that you have become so pious.
Listen to the wise people who are true.
Ones who care whether or not you succeed.

I have news for you that may shock you.
The world is full of other people.
You are not the only one who exsists.
Nor do you have power to orbit the sun.

Are

Well I've been cheated
And stabbed in the back
But, see, I've cheated
Never even tried to care
All 'cause I let you get to me

It was dumb; 4 years ago I recall
And all those lines I faked
"It's cool, I'm fine, let's go"
Just never meant a thing 'til today
Since I've realized I let it all get to me

This is it, this is, it is
We promised we'd be fine and move on
But now I'm stuck again, not making a sound
I don't care who finds me
And I don't care if I'm all alone

You've been so patient
I've been so gritty
Coming from me, that's a different story
I've gotta get ready
So I can leave this state of mind already


Eight At Eight

	EIGHTH AT EIGHT A.M.
    
by Jeffry Cohan on Thursday, December 30, 2010 at 9:28am 
While walking when the southern wind changes in my direction
and become nor-easters such as a festering infection
I have not a choice but to go where my worn out shoes will take me
 Until I reach far enough south for the sun to bake me 
so people inquire why I don't drive a car
and i tell them because were i to have one I'd drink after leaving a bar

Panama Pete, the owner, knows straight vodka iis all i ever drink
and he knows how many I need to no longer think
since drinking at eight A.M. only gets me in trouble with ladies or the law
and please don't think that alcohol is my only flaw
so I leave old Pete with his Panama hat's brim well worn
until, more often than not, I awake on some stranger's lawn
how I got there and why I am indifferent to
and take my word for it I am different from you
you probably have loved ones who would care if you'd die
I, however, could expire and not a soul on earth would cry
no moans, no groans and no tears would be shed
for only Panama Pete will miss me when I'm dead

other people i''ve cheated will care not because they despise me
and no tuxedo, three piece suit nor pin-stripes can disguise me
i am what i am because of a detrimental mind
and people can discern what i am even if they're BLIND
So I rise from the stranger's lawn and keep on the run 
         (C)2011....Phreepoetry ~free cee!~ 
(Panama Pete is actually his name and owns or owned a seedy bar on eighth avenue 
and 46th Street in Manhattan. i haven't seen him in twelve years but if he’s still among 
the living I’m giving ten to one odds that say, were i to walk into his establishment he'd 
pour me four and one on the house)

I Don'T Care (Part I)

I don’t care about ‘I do’
About your vows
What they mean to you

I don’t care about your life
Your family woes, 
Your kids, your wife

I don’t care to be your shrink
To inspire your dreams
To help you think

I don’t care what’s inside
That draws me near
Then makes me hide

I don’t care what you see
Those fierce blue eyes
They cut through me

I don’t care to let it show
All I care
You’ll never know

It Aint All That

IT AIN’T ALL THAT    

That’s all
As the rain responds to a rose’s call
That’s all
Since the only way I can get to her is to knock down another wall
And that’s all as far as I can see
That’s all and I’ve had enough if someone cares to ask me
That’s all I can suffer of platitudes from prudes
And the way a lover changes her meandering moods
That’s all so you can tell the parade to fade away
That’s all, I’ve had too much of the way lovers stray
That’s all I care to take the time to do
That’s all for me but I cannot speak for you
That’s all the clouds I ever wish to see
That’s all  the crap and cruelty hurled upon me
That’s all I can take of liars who produce love so easily feigned
That’s all I can take of that which illicit people do and why I am pained
That’s all I’m going to take of living from the timberland to the south
That’s all I will suffer a stomach finding sustenance only from hand to mouth
That’s all I want to hear about Christ and His crucifixion  
That’s all I care to hear about a talking snake and all the other fiction
That’s all I want of women who keep crystal secrets in a jewelry box
That’s all I’ve had of having to find and break through iron locks
That’s all I can take of people demanding that this man crawl
And that’s all
                    Phreepoetree ~free cee!~

The Truth

The Truth

Words cut deep
deeper than any blade,
Yet I smile,
laughing at the things you say.

You do not see,
never knowing the real me,
I see the truth,
that which is better left hidden.


Just one question to ask,
why are we friends?
The reason that you tell,
because you care for me.

But that is a lie,
you care for the picture I present,
the false smiles,
and hollow laughs,
but this is the truth I keep.

I Don'T Care

As the song by: Apocalyptica, says: 


I try to make it through my life, in my way, there's you
I try to make it through these lies, that's all I do

Just don't deny it
Just don't deny it and deal with it, yeah
Just deal with it

You try to break me,
You wanna break me...bit by bit,
That's just part of it

If you were      or still alive
I don't care, I don't care
And all the things you left behind
I don't care, I don't care

I try to make you see my side
Always trying to stay in line
But your eyes see right through
That's all they do

I'm getting tired of 
I've got no room when it's like this
What you want of me just deal with it

SO!

If you were      or still alive
I don't care, I don't care
And all the things you left behind
I don't care, I don't care

(nothing can care about, nothing can care about)
(you won't be there for me, you won't be there for me)

If you were      or still alive
I don't care, I don't care
And all the things you left behind
I don't care, I don't care

This song reminds me of the voices, depression, and my HORRIBLE LIFE!!!!!!!!!!
