Obviously torn apart
Cold, lonely, and bleeding

Screaming and crying
Slowly dying
sad

One life is not worth more than another

So grant one of their prayers

In exchange for mine

shriveled body, blackened lungs

What is wrong with you?
Don't you see I miss you so

Deja Deja Vu

Hours screaming,
futures pleading,
eternity portends
Voices crying,
souls denying
—as darkness comes again

Why is it my fault?
Honest, I promise it really wasn't me.
I'm just an innocent bystander.

Premium Member The Weeping Violin

Pure and pleading, cascading feelings
Reel from the old violin.
Whether one string or many
Her notes rend the air
and all are held captive there.

"Esfah awi ya maaly el basha." I playfully begged.
"It's okay." He breathed on my neck as he spanked one of my soft thighs.
Kept pleading my apology while taking it all in.

the door opened ajar
there stood a drunken man with an empty bottle
looking afar

pleading in eye
hobbled in, a shaky wobble

He seduced her with the bewildering of his bronze eyes,
As he placed his entire hand into deep spot between her thighs.
Then she began pleading while admitting all of her lies.

Pleading

Is it right to doubt the veracity
Of how much she cares for me
When bidding me farewell
Comes to her so easily? 
Is it some sort of preview
Of our parting's inevitability? 

Tell me.

she dresses in Victorian clothing
stands with wind in her face
Holding her lacy umbrella
staring into the gorgeous horizon
willing her lost love to return
praying and pleading now

My Collapse

Pleading for a moment of silence
I remember.
Even if it was filled with the suspense of another blow,
even if all I felt was throbbing
just one quiet second.

I let it consume me.

Goodbye

Reapers roam where angels fall
Silent demons heed their call

In the night, They scream your name
Calling you to play their game

No one heard your pleading cry
Never got to say goodbye

Lonely Man

Severed arms reaching 
Eyes pleading
Sat in the dirt forever needing 
Beggar is his name
People have no shame
Forgotten in life
Forever in strife
Lonely man where do you belong?
Known unto God

Waiting

Hoping, pleading, watching, waiting, Coping with the games I'm playing. Mad that I'm 
Straying. I'm not the same. I'm disobeying. I hear every word they are saying. Stop 
preaching. Start Praying.
