Paper Wait

you  call me when its good for you
which is hardly ever
its like I'm a convient friend
one who wont sever.
keeping me in mind
you say to yourself
"oh i call her later"
you stick me on the shelf.
You take me down
when there is none left
one doll friend of many
my heart is going deaf.
what is it with you
and your "I'm sorry"s
if you took the time
you wouldn't have to make up stories.
Am i that convient?
am i your chore?
what keeps you around?
Our friendship is on the floor.
you have tons of people 
you talk to each day
i guess i should understand how easy it is
to throw your best friend away.
"I love you so much Ravin
your the best of a friend to me"
your words fall upon deaf ears anymore
what ever happened to WE?
" you will always be the one i come to"
" you are my bestest friend"
you say these thing so carefully
in hopes it never ends.
"I'll call you later"
"no not today"
" I'm at the bar"
" cant find a way"
when i call you are so occupied
you haven't  listened to a word i have said
" hold on" 8 or 9 times
the "call you back" lies you fed
you know i am here
and i love you so much
i come to you about everything
its my heart that is crushed
I thought i was good enough
for you to come to anytime  or day
why is it you put me on this back burner
and leave me here to decay.
you'll see one day
there is none like me
your TRUE friend is still here
but yet you choose not to see
you seem not to care 
as much as i thought you did
why should i still be here?
because i am a REAL friend.
you have crushed me a few times
only to see me come back
you use me when there is no one else
you talk to me to pick up slack.
so here i sit a paper wait
waiting to be used again
will you ever realize
I'm your number one fan?
i keep all this dust hidden
on that shelf you put me on
waiting for a call from you
why am i not gone?
so i sit here today 
writing aloud
spilling my heart to you
hoping you hear my sound.
keep from that shelf
keep me close to you
don't use me when I'm convient
I have better things to do
I love you with all my heart 
Is it impossible to  see?
I try to be the best i can be to you
but what about me?
"its a best friend thing"
is what we used to say
you seem so distant now
what made you go away?
leaving you with this
please know i am here
just give it some thought
and keep me near.

Something Borrowed

See the barrel
pick it up
cock it back
down on your luck.
aim for that
pull it good
one shot
do what you should.
borrow a bullet 
steal the gun
aim to kill
on the run.
no looking back
no sorrow for the dead
laugh maniacly
not one tear to shed.
thoughts drive you to this dark place
sit and boil
grin at the kill
no time to recoil.
settle in
its a long night
get cozy
get it right.
aim to please
only your mind
check it off
one more to find.
in the mirror
there you stand
not so tough
not such a man.
maybe one more 
to please your ease
just one drink
lead you to feast.
simple man
so eager to wait
keeping your fears
to contemplate.
borrow a soul 
steal a heart
keep in mind
your a man apart.

Wicked Prayer

Let me sleep

keep me close

Setting up hope

putting it up in cases

Let me live

See me die

keep me close

never lie

show me faith

give me reason

set me free

take me home

show your eyes

i see your soul

darkness falls

your hand is cold

wipe my tears

hold my face

see my eyes

take a taste

sweet blood

thick as milk

keep those lips

far away

take this hand

take my pain

Go tell your people

I am here. 

tell them 

she stays

let them know

of my provactive ways.

Show me your heart

let me see how it bleeds

show me your scars

show me how you feed

this i pray you seek in me

let me sleep

let me be..

Faceless

Cant keep the dark out
looking for a light
seeking for hope
trying to make it right
wont feel the pain
keeping it in mind
pricking the finger
for blood to find
cant see in here
this heart is black
used to the evil
waiting for a attack
need to feel
searching for a way
watching the blood
to pass the day
need a break
from all this hurt
evil pushing me
face in the dirt
biting my lip
waiting for the taste
blood rushes in
sweet not to waste
eyes look out
mind wanders in
swimming around
in my sweetest sin
red as rubies
thick as milk
blood blankets me
like a red silk
swimming in pain
from long ago
keeping it hidden
hurt doesn't show
tasting honey
sweet as hate
swallowing fear
love can wait
look at me
drowning in life
sitting in the corner
nightmares sharp as a knife
cut like butter
at my skin
bleeding sweetly
hate within
life gets better
as it goes
eat your enemies
swallow your foes
Head straight up
life goes on
fears dissapear
break of a new dawn
deep in hope
lost in right
keep me safe
thru the night
love your friends
keep in mind
those good friends
are hard to find
step in the day
bleed for the light
i will be safe
all thru the night.

Say Something

shutting it out

keeping it in

silence breaks

screams start

voice of hurt

hand of pain

stay away

touch not

backing away

stumbled twice

seeing the candle

little light of mine

shut me out

close the door

silence is loud

screams in my head

sleeping tight

wondering how

i get through the night

locks and chains

bind me selfishly

breaking away

becoming free

run towards 

the irrodesent glow

warm heart there

love to show

entry to a gateway

stepping in to a new

breaking out

seeking shelter

swimming for shore

let me know

i am there

let me feel

what you dare

say something

do nothing

say anything

show me the same

night time has risen

time to slumber

resting into a place

of perfect peace

until then..

say nothing...

it means everything

What You Can'T See

something lurks
painful words
simple plan
disturbed man
catch a glimpse
makes you limp
sharp pain
runs in vain
keep it coming
no one is running
try again
so called friend
head strong
down to long
take on you
oops, you lose
fearful words
limber sword
petty run ons
fake bonds
simple face
complete waste
sit a while
walk your mile
lost your touch
don't count for much
fallen clown
pick up your crown
broken and bent
scrapes and dents
see thru you
not to true
sit on your stool
laugh at the fool
left with a frown
common for clowns
point it out
all in doubt
everyone else
put on a shelf
set to blame
all your game
troubled boy
too many toys
keep it clear
there is no fear
keep it coming
you'll go running
head to head
fist of lead
never backing down
you silly clown

Subject To Change

something hidden
glowing dim
see your eyes
sulking in sin
kept in mind
all those times
reaching for you
didn't come thru
settle up
cant get enough
climbing down
deafening sound
velvet touch
razor crush
bleed me dry
leave me to die
wake me up
cant get enough
watching the sky
just you and I
threatened thought
something taught
see you then
my so called friend
throw me down
my heart found
pick me up
cant get enough
kiss my lips
as my skin rips
bought my soul
kept it cold
gave it back
burnt and black
burn my lips
with your kiss
watch me rise
keep me high
lent  you my heart
not so smart
bandage it up
cant get enough
electric touch
never enough
soul behind those eyes
you gave me butterflies
was that the end
heart on the mend
like it rough
cant get enough
next to me
pleased to be
settle in
the trip within
keep me close
 better than most
sew me complete
never to compete
heal me whole
keep my soul
touch of fire
heart on a wire
kiss of love
never enough..

Limited

In my dreams i am one

i see unlimited possibilities

i see things that in real life aren't possible

nothing is standing in my way

no road blocks to over come or hurdle 

one touch quietly mine

one kiss solely for me

no one but us

only one thing can stop this

if i wake up

 until lets stay here

looking at our reflection

in the water

throwing rocks

making laughs

never saying a word

in my dreams

I am not far

i am just a look away

one touch and i am there

in my dream

you can see me

without hiding

without wondering

keep in mind 

dreams are never ending possibilities

smile for me

keep it on a shelf

save it for later.

rainbow siding on the wall

tear free gutters

only for a limited time

can you see that noise

its a bright white

in a dream 

love is endless

rivers run through 

and back again

love it like you use to

and keep it close to heart

in a midnight lore

see you there

meet me by the water

not letting one drop run dry

settling in

in my dream

see you there.
