She takes unbearable pain, in the worst way possible. Most may say it's a beautiful thing, but what about the one who never made it? She will be remembered as the bravest soldier, who fought extremely hard and lost her life. Beautiful soul, joined the army of the Lord. Mother's are the strongest women I ever known them to be. When you are queasy, she nurses you...

The Pulse
Learning a heart beats makes life go fast My heart beats twice as fast as you think and half as fast as I remember When the rainbow came out over my grandmother's wet face in the rain in a crowd of nervous spectators I graduated again under the gazing admiration of a bunch of sappy critics also known as my family I was sad...

The Rock
You were the rock Of the family You held us together And kept us strong You were like a lion When you roared Everybody listened An stood at attention That’s how powerful You were But father time Begin to chip away At the rock Who begins to crack Into small pieces Chipping and chipping Away at you until You turn into dust That flew away with The wind...

Family Killed Me Before I Died
The little voice begging for love and freedom from classroom is mine I am a child Who harbours unspoken words and wavered feelings in my heart If you let my spirit out of this cage, a beautiful world I'll paint Now I am bound by chains of failure and mothers unemphatic nature Every invisible second steals a pint...

Charley
Charley In Carolina a young man’s journey began. Today in Mississippi was it’s end. Dressed in the best he had, they returned an old man to the ground; in the shade of a white oak, Ginseng berries all around. His was a tale of pain and woe. His brother lost at Perryville, the greatest blow. In ’65 alone forty miles to LaGrange, his...

When All Was Said and Done
When all was said and done, Who was there? A gleaming friend in the nights of sorrow And in the depths of despair? Did you know what you were doing As you took each sip? Did you know what you were doing As through your fingers your life slipped? Was the blade your only final friend? Did you think it would be...

Banshee Crow
At first I thought it was the gales That howled into the night, But then the banshee's keening wails Broke all the glass in sight I hopped from bed up to the sill To see what I could see I saw a crow upon the hill A dark monstrosity My throat closed up; I couldn't breathe I thought that I would die But it flew...

My Death Wish
My death wish Death may come faster Than I expected, Family, I know I am nothing but a burden, I can see it in your eyes. Please stay away from my funeral With your vial tongues Your insane minds and your want for attention. When my death comes Please look at my body, See what you have done, Years of depression  With illegal drugs in my lungs, Alcohol in my...
