A Decision

I know I don’t know u
And u don’t me 
Ur still an existence 
A part of me

I may not get to know u.    
hold u 
I might be be a foreign entity 


I know this all sounds silly and ur just a cluster of cells 
But I hate each word that is muttered about u it rings like silver bells 
I want to protect u 
Cluster of unknown truth 
Even though your the proof
And I don’t know why maybe we can just be friends..... maybe I’ll just cry
I imagine I’m doing the right thing 
I’m not sending u off alone 


The world is cold 
And I’m not old 
And my hand might not be enough I’m told 
Better yet I’m still your mother don’t be mad at me 
There’s nothing I can do

Me and you we cannot be 

Our universes even yours so small 
Can’t find mutual mutiny

So for now I know this sounds cliquey 
But let’s meet tomorrow not today
I promise I’ll love you and I promise I’ll care 
I still do now even though your not there 
Just wait for me kindly up in the stars
I’ll be your Venus and I’ll be your Mars 

Let me sing u a lullaby of my tears and my scars 

I’m so very sorry that I can’t be enough 
Let me embrace you in the form this unborn mother’s love

To My Angel

Callous core and angels ring they call me 
All the time they ring like spoons 
Filling me with knowledge and it hurts me 
It pains me but god still allows me to drink from his cup 
Lined with gold and sweet silver lies my young does drink 
Searching for an answer in the pool I call home and a Brain 
Life can be cruel but only you make it bitter my mind mind makes it sweet 
A devils poison hushes me to sleep my brain whirls on aching and aching waiting to explode and rain down all mighty on all of the land 
Finish me 
Im dead still 
In a box I lay 
The clear and the clarity and all my insanity 
Everyone can see me 
They can see my ugly ugly scars and my ugly body 
Merged into pity and rage 
Hopefully I leave behind something of some one of worth for you 
Man has crushed me but I’m still alive barely 
Breathing 
I have you too look after 
The one thing that keeps me hydrated 
And alert is you 
It’s my job it’s my duty 
Before I die I must treasure you 
Drink from my cup 
And learn my mistakes 
God is willing god is kind but angels whisper our secrets 
Be weary 
Be Alert 
I will cover you best I can 
I will love you with what is left of love that I have but non for no one else other than you 
You hold I peace of him child of god 
Don’t hurt me in my undoing and I will protect you
