A Letter

Dear Rob:


Time heals all wounds is a white lie
Because I bleed a little everytime I cry
Memories can't replace the human touch
Sometimes it seems it's just too much
Every drop from my eye, I question why
Did he take you? No answer through vanquished sighs
It's so hard to come to terms and understand
What is the reason? What is the plan?
I would have traded places with you in an instant
It's a thought I've had that remains persistant
No matter how hard I try to resist it
Guilting myself is so damn insistent
It's said you're in a better place, but I plead my case
Pure greed indeed, I would rather see your face
I would exchange 10 years of my life, for one day of yours
Anguish engulfs me at times, not always behind closed doors
I've gotten down on all fours screaming to the heavens and the sky
WHY DID YOU TAKE HIM? HE DIDN'T DESERVE TO DIE.
Brother.. it never gets better, so I write you a letter
Putting my pain in words, we will always be tethered

Love always Curtis

It's Never Easy

It’s never easy,
Saying goodbye to you,
Because you’re always coming back,
Begging on your knees,
Trying to woo my heart once again,
I tell you no every single time.
I put on my brave face,
To show that you’re done,
You’re not worth loving again.
But when I’m alone,
Hiding behind walls,
And I’m breaking down.
Crying all over again,
In the end I know I shouldn’t,
I know I am stronger,
And I don’t need you,
I deserve so much better,
But I know very well,
That you will return,
Playing your games,
Guilting me with your lies,
It won’t be that easy,
Because you won’t win me over,
Not ever again…

Never Choose Love Out of Fear

AS YOUR LOVE TWIST THE BLADE,THIS DIDNT NEED TO BE, FROM THIS DARK I COUNT YOUR SELFISH NEEDS,WHY IS LIFE SO BITTERSWEET,ASCENDED FROM HELL THAT MUCH I KNEW FROM THE POISONS THAT YOU SPEWED , ILL NEVER ANSWER TO YOUR GUILTING SIGHS ,YOU BLESSED MY LOVE THEN MADE ME CRY,I'LL NO LONGER CARRY YOUR  CROSS,I'VE BLED ENOUGH FOR THE LOST, I DONT CARE HOW MUCH YOU PLEAD,EVEN THE DEAD DESERVE TO BE FREE,THE BEAUTY OF THIS MASQUERADE IS THAT YOU WONT ESCAPE THIS BED YOU'VE MADE,STATUED LOVE WAS NEVER TO BE, THESE CHAINS OF VOWS ARE AGONY,FROZEN IN DARKNESS A PRISONER OF A BLINDED MIND,MY HISSING HEART WAS PREPARED FOR LIFE,I ENTERED WAR WITH A STRANGER WHO CALLED ME WIFE, CAN STRENGTH AID ME IN THIS FIGHT,OR AM I PRAYING TO A DEAF DIVINE ?FATHER FORGIVE ME AS I FELL INLOVE,I DIDN'T HAVE PATIENCE ,I WAS YOUNG AND SMUG,I NOW UNDERSTAND WHY IM HERE,NEVER CHOOSE LOVE OUT OF FEAR.....


Helpless

Helpless a girl can do anything
she have ability to do something

people may thinking, she always fine
No reason to think that she won't be evil

she couldn't  konw how to live
because she deprived of her arounding 

she can be dangerous and fighting
because she doesn't konw control herself

these are n't of her guilting
it's the rule of our living.

New Ozymandias

O How Great It Is...
To be alive on this day!
Heh, Most unlike you!

You're Deader then dead
Just like the wooly mammoth,
Who's also your dad

I'm alive in space!
Without a care or worry...
I'm forever free.

Remember highschool?
Well, I haven't forgotten.
But you have, my dear

You rejected me!
But not privately, mind you!
No, that'd be too nice...

Had to be cruel...
You told them all when I asked.
And I was left, mocked

But space is so kind.
Unlike your now burning Earth.
Fighting my cyborgs?

Sorry for the mess.
Death Stars aren't too accurate...
They get the job done.

Well, England is gone.
Your most favorite city.
I burned it myself.

I'm truly happy
Yep, I'm just floating in space.
Yes, Yes... I'm damn sure.

I do NOT miss you.
Or the goddamned earth, either.
Just stop guilting me!

No... I'm not happy.
I'm just alone in deep space.
I'm Watching you burn.

Please forgive me, miss.
I was so jealous, old friend
I was just so hurt.

I feel  terrible.
Like I'm Ozymandias
Only, I despair.
