Falling Hard

It started out simple and easy,
We talked every other day,
Just friends,
You know.

Soon we gradually 
Started opening up,
Got to know ourselves,
As well as each other.

Well this is what I though
Was something that
Wouldn't really become
Anything.

Well at the second I 
Thought that,
Was when it came to the point,
Where I had long gone wrong.

I thought You were just A 
Person,
There to call.

I never thought You'd be the one,
To make me feel happier than
The princess of a 
Grand ball!

I started excepting that
I was falling for you,
But I honestly didn't
Really want to.

I knew I'd land hard,
Break me heart over not being
Able to be with
You.

I knew this was all comming,
But, yes.
I blocked it all out.

I decided I was in 
Love with You
And, for believing those 
Feelings,
I was through.

I now feel the pain,
Of loving You and not
Recieving the same feelings back,

But maybe someday,
Your Love,

I will no longer
Lack.
I Love You.

Cry a Little

Maybe if I run,
Never to return. . . 
You'll cry a 
Little.

Maybe if I slide
The blade across
My wrist and bleed to
Death,
You'll cry a 
Little.

Maybe if I die 
From that crystal meth,
You'll cry a 
Little.

Maybe if my world died down
Forever, and gone
For good,
You might just miss me. . .
And maybe You'll cry a
Little.

You Promised

She hears the 
Ole' green pick up truck
Pull into the 
Parking lot.

She peeks her head
Out from under 
The covers and 
Sees him stumble
Into the apartment 
Door.

She runs
Downstairs to say
Goodnight.

Questions why he was 
Gone 3 hours and didn't
Even return with 
The milk or bread
From the store.

She smells his 
Breath
Fresh of liquor and 
Smoke.  

She notices that 
He's swaying
Side to side.

Whats wrong 
Daddy?
Why can't You 
Walk?

I though You quit drinking 
Daddy,
You said you
Were through.

You promised me
No more beer
You said You loved
Me o' so dear.

"I hate You daddy"
Written in black crayon
On her bedroom 
Wall.

But that is forever
Erased now,
Thats forever gone.

But Now

I cry a flood or tears,
For reasons that nobody else
Could.

I stare into space,
Thinking about things
Nobody else would.

I love the things I love
For reasons even I will
Never know.

I dream the kind of
Dreams that I can't
Even show.

But now I look back at all of these
Rare passions,
And I notice that all I need 
To do now,

Is cast out that ugly
Lingering look of You
Behind me,

And just
         -Let go.
