Dont Blame Me For Our Mistakes

you make me think
about the way i am an how i should be
you make me realize the things i do all the rights an the wrongs
you make me wanna change
everyday we spend apart makes me want to spend another day together
i no im not perfect
i no i have my problems
your the reason i am trying to change 
an the reason i will
day by day an little by little
as long as im with you the book we write wont ever skip a chapter
you make my heart beat a little slower an o so much faster
ive learned so much, an forgotten so little
we fight i no
we disagree on a lot i no
we seem to have more downs then ups
an this is my promise these will reverse
with your hand in mine anything is possible
an the closer we get the more im complete
the farther apart the more i dissipate 
abby i wrote this about you
for the words you make me feel are so great
i would have to make a new language to explain 
your the reason im here an for that im grateful
we met at my worst an things have gotten better
i love you so much i think you forget
so i wrote this for you to remember
the things we could be 
an the things that slow us down
as long as were together we will rewrite history 
a new kinda love one i never thought was real
but you've shown be things that are so unimaginable
so unlimitable an so underscribeable 
you really are my one an only
an without you i feel as if im less than nothing
i just hope our future together will show you im right
a million years with you to me feels much more that right
an even if we end
id like you to no
every memory we've shared 
makes me feel like you are my home
not this apartment but one of our own
abby i love you, an never wish you will go.



but she did.

Deeper Than the Depth of Pity

i sit here debating
patientlly evating
with my mind gone from the drugs i been taking
a lame excuse i call escaping 
im not troubled but i am constantly waiting
on this an that them or her
life well thats just turn after turn
down dark allies 
past open doors
from were i began asking why does this pain only get worse
i feel so open an free
but behind barred doors my  mind rationally finds glee
strange why im hallow and run deep
in a pile of overly frozen sleet
i found a love i plan to keep
its not in my heart but written with my ink 
not on paper 
not with a pen
no these thoughts only consume in my head
if i told you the truth id be a lier shot dead 
they point an stare into the wall, lost
as if someone was there an not consumed by it all 
not realizing im already a tear on the page 
of written requests forgotten by time to this passing day
no one wants to hear my off tune play 
so ill leave you there with your basket of fear
not full but aware
of your backstabbing emotions.

My Rock

i got all these problems an it never gets easier
i let go a little more each day then the issues only become deeper
gettin uh job 
ya collection that pay
my life still sucks
im not to happy
cant complain 
things are starting to turn around
but one thrown rock could bring the glass house down
wouldn't really bother me 
just to no she's happy will be the death of me
the more i think
the less i care
everything reminds me of how it used to be

Wrongfully Errect

im not here but im gone
im like that 1 acid trip that horribly went wrong
the volcanic ash in your lung
a nightmare in the making
a infection in need of a scraping
the bugs are out of the hat
an the cabbage in the drawer went bad
the deer is stale an vercitile at that
ill leave you were you belong standing, next to the trash 
you broke it you buy it as if this was true
i gave you something stronger than the mountains
an you sent it back mumbling about glue
like a car accident and the window only bent
bittersweet like the remorse of winters end.
its all cause you left me...wrongfully errect

My Feeling Of

i will express to you
in poem form yes that will have to due
since i first laid these eyes upon you
i ve been lost in these feelings
these feelings of complete an utter satisfaction
i don't feel like i have a malfunction
you think i will screw up
im not gonna lie your probably not wrong
i make bad choices
i have bad ideas
im not a lier tho
an i am no thief
im just a silly boy who has a heart that i wish you to keep
turn me away i will not go uh stray1
ill be around but afraid to offer again
if your mind changes an goes a separate path
don't listen to him the one up top
he strategies thoughts
your heart will guide you right to me or another guy
don't trust what it doesn't tell you
don't believe im the one you'll keep.

Filthy Magazine

skipping scenes or skipping lines
well babe im yours but only till the end of time
its not to short but not to long
cant stand to sit an watch people play golf
i couldn't see the difference
you couldn't say i was blind
i learned a lot with these two fellows
not people my silent eyes that observe the story
the one you told 
complained about the lonely an the cold
well when were you there?
what pain have you seen?
thats what i thought
you were just by the window but only to get a peep
