How did I get this bad?
That's all that runs through my mind as a blade comes in contact with my skin.
All my happy childhood memories cross my mind as shameful tears pour down my face like a waterfall.
I hear my younger self laughing, running around being herself.
She used to be so free,
Now she's locked up inside me begging and pleading to run wild once more.
I've not only locked her up behind the cold steel bars of what's left of my heart,
I've also locked myself up,
Not letting anyone see my pain, screams for help, and long loud echoes of my strained cries.
So I ask again,
How did I get this bad?
I've stolen every space where you stand
I'm inside your shadow lost in your hand
Take a step and I'm already there
Look now and see the reflection of my stare
Smothering you is my goal to achieve
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I'll use every trick I have up my sleeve
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I'll do anything to make you believe
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
Bite life and you will taste me
Travel the world and I'm the destiny
Start a sentence and Ill finish with you word
Listen to your heart and know I've already heard
Smothering you is my goal to achieve
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I'll use every trick I have up my sleeve
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I'll do anything to make you believe
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
Draw a picture and Ill be on your mind
Searching your soul and I'm there to find
We're one with time on any given date
You look for love and I'm waiting in fate
Smothering you is my goal to achieve
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I'll use every trick I have up my sleeve
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I'll do anything to make you believe
I want you so bad I just cant let you breathe
I am on fire today, I tell her. Let’s do it today!
I am always inviting her to go places, but every day is not the right one.
Not today, she cautions me. My great-grandmother died today.
I am so sorry! I say. “When did you find out?”
1972.
But you are only twenty, right?
But my family found out in 1972, April 11th, 1972.
She shows me her calendar.
There are deaths on every page.
From 1617 forward.
I help her search for an empty day.
Bad day. Bad day. Bad day she says.
Flipping pages rapidly.
I had always wondered why
She was always waiting for bad.
“Is this the only calendar you have?” I ask.
“I also have this one,” she tells me.
It has a bunch of dates too but only first names.
Dates the family’s pets died.
Less of them, so that is good, right?

Woke up in the night,
Unable to to sleep.
Thought to myself,
To the bathroom I'll creep.
Don't want to wake,
My wife like before,
As I quietly tip toe,
Across the floor.
Can't sleep at night,
Of late it seems.
I toss and I turn,
And I have crazy dreams.
I look in the mirror,
Above the sink.
Oh No! Oh My God!
I think I need a drink!
Am I going crazy?
This couldn't be worse!
I must have contracted,
A family curse!
I look like the Wolf Man!
Oh No! This can't be!
Oh say it ain't so!
This can't be me!
Then I wake up.
I'm safe in my bed.
No more hair than normal,
Adorns chest, face and head.
I look at my wife,
So gentle and sweet,
As she lays here beside me,
And quietly sleeps.
Then I look closer.
Is that long hair for sure,
On her arms and her hands!?
Oh there MUST be a cure!!

Allison Jones had a terrific career.
She was on the rise as a software engineer.
Her Upper West Side apartment was certainly great.
However, to meet expenses, she needed a roommate.
Concerning the high rent, there was some doubt.
That started when she asked her fiancée to move out.
After an exhaustive search, the right one came one day.
Hedy Carlson was the girl who would stay.
Allie, how were you supposed to know?
There was tragedy in Hedy’s life long ago.
Her twin sister met an early demise.
Personal guilt was something Hedy would surmise.
Hedy’s real name was Ellen, and she had a quirky past.
Allie figured this relationship should not last.
Ellen’s dark episodes left plenty of room for doubt.
How did things turn out? Rent the DVD and check it out.
Based on the 1992 film “Single White Female”.
McGee walks in, looking for Finn
Through the door of the local pub
His head hanging down, with the saddest of frowns
Put his hand on Finn's shoulder, and rubbed
As McGee then sat down, Finn notice his frown
And asked him why he's so sad
"I have some bad news I have to tell you
and some I'm afraid's, very bad"
"What could it be, tell it to me
And start with the bad new" Finn said
"Your Doctor told me, it'd be better you see
If it's from a close friend, instead
This Is the note, your Doctor has wrote
That I'm cursed with having to give
It comes as a pain, but I'll just say it plain
You have 24 hours to live
"You don't say said Finn", and he spoke out again
"And you claim you have worse news to say
"What could be worst ?" McGee had to burst'
"WELL, I STARTED LOOKING FOR YOU---YESTERDAY".
BAD RESOLUTIONS
Be good, be kind, help those along the way.
All good resolutions I’ve made on New Year’s Day.
Don’t do this, don’t do that, do know right from wrong.
Resolutions I have never kept for long.
Every year I’ve broken them before the end of June.
So, now I’m old and grey, I’ve changed my tune.
Only bad resolutions this new year,
Like lots of smoking and too much beer;
Using bad language and being unpleasant;
Telling rude jokes when ladies are present.
I’ll do what I want to, it’s all about me.
Oh, what a wonderful year it will be.
No, only joking, I don’t think I could.
So, once more this year, I’ll resolve to be good.

He said “I am bad”. I laughed, not seeing any bad at all.
Tried to get him to prove it. He couldn’t.
I reworked him. Replenished him. Reminded him
Of all the good I had seen from him.
He helped the little ones find the gym yesterday.
He lifted another little one up to take a drink in the fountain.
I was glad I had seen this. Thank God I had.
He was not convinced. Irritated with me.
Called me names. Said he did not want to be my friend.
I laughed. Knowing he would be back.
He always comes to me. He knows the truth.
He knows he is good. But it is difficult to think about
When your mother is saying how bad you are
Because you look like the man who raped her.
Soon as I feel the pain I notice my avoidance
I want something but I’m afraid I’m not sure what I’m doing
I can’t force you off my mind but I think your better off if I make myself the bad guy
Dissatisfied with my choices but I still keep going
You come across my mind again and I starting asking myself why..
When I had a touch of everything I had wanted
I just had to make myself the bad guy
I noticed I was going to hurt you if I stayed
Not intentionally but because I wasn’t grounded and still finding my way
I think about it all night and when I’m busy in the day
I hope someday I can make up for being the bad guy
That’s just something I say to ease my mind from the knowing thoughts that youl move on and find someone who will get what I desired
I wasn’t ready for you but i couldn’t hurt you
A battle I didn’t want to bring you into, I thought I had it handled
I didn’t think you’d love me but I started to believe it
Then I fell for you and I never felt so steady
How could I let that go, something il always regret , I just tell myself “it was for his better”
Crushing me cause I’d grow back cold and you were my sweater
I’d just pretend I didn’t feel it, I’d grown numb to cold weather
But that’s how I noticed you inspired me to see better
That was when i realized I could feel again
But you were right I wasn’t ready but I wanted to make amends
I didn’t fight , nor did I defend cause you were right
I didn’t want to hurt you so I pulled back as you pulled tight
I’m feeling the cold creep back in as the chills start to settle
I have a better version but she was lost in the cold weather
Growing even colder than chilling metal
Id lose you when you fell for me, and I wasn't vulnerable
In my story you’ll always be so honorable
Sometimes my mental can tell me a lie
Why did I have to make myself the bad guy
???????????????
