Better Than Drugs.

Its better than drugs
better than life
you look around and you can see it
you have to know where to find it
they say love is fake
love is not fake
they just haven't found it
it doesn't come easy nor leaves easy
you have to fight for it
feel it 
breath it
take care of it
love is a gift
it can come once 
it can come twice
but when it comes you embrace it
you take it as you will never see it again
it can set your future
kids
wife
house
it can be the thing thats there till you die
but all i know is that its better than drugs

They Call It Cassidy

I don't know what it is or what it is called
but all I know I's it makes me want to fall

Breathing it in and soaking it up
makes feel like I can't get further up

I go day to day just living by the moments
but when I in counter this thing I can't think about any other being

it's like a drug or a depressant
when I hold it, it's almost like an esent

it's so gorgeous and smooth
that when I'm around it I can just Cruz

when I sit down and think about it and ask myself
what is it?
what could this thing be?
a buddy once told me
its a girl, her name is Cassidy.

What Ever You Call It.

What ever you call it it's great
when your around it you feel great
when you breath you can't escape it
when i touch it i feel numb
you can't see it
you can't hear it
you have to trust it
you have to accept it 
you have to realize it
it can be a person
it can be a thing
but whatever you call it
i know its love

When She Is Not Around

when she is not here 
i feel sick
i feel depressed
i feel like there is no life
without her i wouldn't be here
her name is simple, Cassidy
when she is not with me i can't feel
when she is with me im unstoppable
I can't die
i can't quit
i can't breath, just her
i can't see, just her
i just feel like i could die
when she is not around

How Fast

how fast can it drain
fall
drip
pour
how much will it continue
how much can you lose till it ends
over
gone 
left
will you fell the pain
cutting isn't easy
it hurts
they say takes the pain away
but how fast

What Is Death?

living like nothing it comes easy
you can be gone as easily
it brings pain and fear
you feel like there is nothing there
pain,pain,pain thats all you will feel
cut,lost, and dry is how you will act
they call it this weird and horrible name
its called DEATH!

She Said It Feels Good?

She says it feels good and calms her down
when i know deep inside it pushes her down

the pain she feels and hurt inside
i can't believe she would use this to cover it up

so cheap and simple and soft and sharp
when she thinks about it, it really does help

there is no reason for 
no reason at all

it hits the skin leaves the marks
and makes you bleed till you can't stop

she thinks its ok but not at all
i hate it when she does every minute of it

she says its her coping skill but i know its not
thats what she calls it, cutting.

Is It True

is it true
did i find the one
the one i love
care for
adore
believe
is it true
did it come for me
the love of my life
the mother of my unborn child
Cassidy
is it true

Should You Let It Go By?

Should you let it go by?
should you let love,life, and dreams leave?
take one breath at a time
live it like its your last.
Cant sop or stop,have to deal
I'm telling you to go for it
never let it go.

When I Love Her

when i love her
when is see her
when i feel her
i feel it
i know that im surrounded with love
it's great
ucontrolable
undeniable
it's unbeliveable
but when i don't there is a no in my heart just sitting there
a worry
that never again will i speak to her
i know it's not true
but it's there
it sitts like a dead person in wood
but just, when i love her it's great
