Against-The-Past


memories... 

 always there
never spare
to scare

they stare
and snare
relentless

they swear
my despair
not a prayer
to breathe air

never fair!

always tare
here and there
mentally
everywhere

I’m elsewhere
back in time
times behind
hit rewind 

as tears flare
past glares
I dare
warfare!

beware
prepare
nightmares
rip to pairs

memories
to replace
and erase
no space

for disgrace
give face
past deface
up the pace

earn my place
win the race
live in grace
life embrace 

AGAINST THE PAST!

Look At Me Now

I remember the time when my life seemed bad
never would i smile i was always acting sad
no one could help me 
they didnt know what to do
cause every time they tried only sadness and anger grew
they tried to give me pills 
to outsmart my brain
but they dont seem to relize that only time 
could heal the pain
and little did they know i was dying more each day
but then i met you and you seemed to take it all away
i felt a different feeling one that i had never known
and for the first time in my life i  felt i wasnt alone
i didint know what to do you were stuck inside my head
it all just made me think that mabe not all love is dead
you opened up my eyes to look at life a different way
and not like all the rest you didnt push my love away
you picked the perfiect time i was almost out of hope
i was already on a chair hanging from a rope
you filled my heart with love as it layed dying on a shelf
and not only did you save me from death you saved me from myself
and to this day i can finally say that i know you really care
i hope we stay together to make this feeling last forever and enjoy the love we share
