My Papa

Remember me when im gone 
this was the last thing he said
as he laid there in his lumpy hospital bed 

My Papa was there for me 
from the minute I was born
and continued to support me throughout my life

from my first bike ride 
to my first writing contest
I could always count on him
to be my biggest fan

When I was going on ten
he was diagnosed with cancer 
and the doctor said he wouldnt live
he fought it for months
and woke up at five in the morning every day
but he didnt make it 

he gave me the most important lesson 
that no one else ever can
Live your life to the fullest
and never let it get you down 
because life is to short to take for granted.

The Pain I Feel

sometimes i lay awake at night
just thingking about my past 
and wondering how long 
this awful memory will last

it tears me open inside
and rips my brain to shreds 
sometimes i want to kill my self 
jut to get this from my head

the memory is short 
but the pain is everlasting
people wonder how im still standing

they say that im strong
tell me im brave
then why does it sitll feel the same

if i am so strong
then why do i feel weak

why is vit so hard to finaly get some sleep
why cant i shut my eyes
why cant i get this from my brain
all that i want is to finnaly stop this pain
