Alone

Here I am.
The dark settles in,
Reminds me I’m alone.
Ghosts of my past haunt me today,
I truly just want to go home.
Separated from my life today,
Barred from my destiny,
Wasn’t meant to be my fate,
How could this happen to me?
I was going to sparkle,
I was meant to shine,
The only question
Remaining today,
Why did I do that line?
Crystal she cried out to me.
She swore I’d be ok.
She would never leave me,
She was here to stay.
She made me feel so special
Gave me such a high,
She made me not care as much,
Until she made me die.

Owed To Steve,

Ode to Steve,

You controlling backstabber, you've lost control of me. 

You took what you could get, but it belonged to me.

Self Respect, you have none of, So you took mine from me.

You believed you were entitled, That it should all be free,

You think the whole world owes, and you think your due.

you steal from everyone, no one is exempt from you.

I wish they'd all punch you in the eye and kick you in head.

for everything you've lied about and everything you've said.

All the years I wasted,  you wrecked them all for me

All the holidays and family times, days that should be great, 

you destroyed them all for me, and now its you i hate.

you only have yourself  to blame, and you have sealed your fate.

All the slander, and the lies you spread, 
 
what comes around goes around.

I pray that karma's true, that's my wish for you.

I hope You get what you deserve, but multiplied times two.

It is my life, I've taken it back, 

I'm finally rid of you.

I Think I Can Be Happy Now

I think I can be happy now 
There's some one new
memories are fading
the ones that made me blue.
The ones of you telling me
we were through
ive since forgiven you.
its all in the past.
its the future im looking to
life goes by way too fast.
so enjoy the happy times, 
They just may be your last.

Are We Soul Mates

Everyone has a soul mate; Are you with yours?

Is it fate, Predetermined?

Is it possible to pass them by accidentally and stupidly, Or can it be fixed? 

Is there a too late, Or can destiny take hold and fix it before our days end? 

How can we know for sure? 

And if not, why do we bother to believe in love or fate? To pass time,

even though we know that apart we can never really and truly be happy,

Or is that a price we have to pay in order to not sacrifice anyone's feelings? 

I guess eventually we will all lose in the end. Is the price too much to pay?

I guess there can be no wrong or right answer, 

But we may always wonder now,   Wont we?
 
A part of me screams forget it, And another part cries no,

And although curiosity killed the cat, I am insanely curious.

All Because of You

Sad lonely, in despair,
Credit you are due.
I'm alone without you here,
I am so sad and blue 
I cried and cried,
But you didn't care,
I wont soon forget,
How you made me feel,
And what you put me through,
It wasn't even fair.
And I'll never love again;
I owe it all to you.

You Said Goodbye

Sad and lonely,

Emptiness and pain,

Without you in my life.

My tears fall like rain

I'm feeling so sad,

The pain that I feel,

Sharp, and piercing,

It cuts like a knife.

I cry every night.

The pain is so deep.

The longing I feel.

It makes me weep.

There's an emptiness,

In my broken heart,

I knew that I'd loved you,

Right from the start. 

It makes me so sad,

You don't feel the same.

The raindrops they fall, 

keeping pace with my tears,

My mind it races;

It  gives in to my fears.

I gave it my all,

But you couldn't see,

We were made for each other,

We were destined to be.

My heart is breaking,

You don't love me,

You wont even try.

You said it was over.

And you told me goodbye.

And You Sucked Me In

you sucked me in 
not once but twice, 
you did many things
 not very nice
you said that you missed me
then you did it twice

you only used me
you didnt care
you erased me from your life
like id never been there.
 
you left me homeless
you left me broke
you left me hungry
and so very alone

i took a chance 
that was a mistake
cuz you are a phony
you are a fake

one thing for sure
it wont happen again
this time its over
this is the end

no matter what you do
no matter what you say 
you wont suck me in.
no how and no way

Owed To Shannon Griffin

Owed to Shannon Griffin;
Ex sister in-law
But only by our name,
Also stolen by you,
Everthing i will say,
I can prove its true,
You thought that you were owed,
You thought you were due,
You thought what belonged to us, 
Should all belong to you,
You and steve must think alike, 
As Most Narcissist will do,
You conned and cheated us,
You led us to believe, 
We gave you another chance,
Because we thought you changed,
But you used my mothers death,
Her estate you promised to honestly represent,
But you lied And you stole us blind, 
What comes around,
Goes around,
Like karma came to him,
Steve got paid what he was owed,
And you will also too,
It will come to you,
Only i hope your punishment for your crimes,
Karma owes to you,
will be delivered to you,
Like it was to him,
times two, 
His was times three,
That would be six for you,
His fate is example, 
Its been proven true,
Karmas real,
And you are owed, 
That statement is finally true,
Steve got what he deserved,
And Now its you, 
Who are due,
So i hope it hits you in the face,
And stomps you in the head,
For all the things you lied about,
And all the lies you spread,
No one will believe in you,
Not that they ever did,
And your punishment will be,
No more, 
No less,
Only what you’re owed,

Shannon Loves Covid-19

A loser, 
A narcissist,
A liar,
A thief, 
And a louse,
She Conned my poor mother,
then moved into her house,
Suddenly mother dies,
Under whose care?
Was there foul play?
Only Shannon could say,
Then as rep of her estate,
She continued her ruse, 
Began spending money, 
with nothing to lose.
Finally removed,
Judgment Awarded,
$54K
But will we ever see it?
Chances are slim,
For her crimes,
Jail is fit, 
But why does she not go?
Apparently Covid 19, 
Protected the hoe.
