Criss Cross

You telling me this
You telling me that.
Let me sit back and let you in on a fact.

I saw you with a guy that wasn't me
Kissing and hugging in my Disbelief.
In your defense, I was the one to blame
You played at both ends, but you lost the game.

Lose my number, Get me outta your mind.
I'm not Helen Keller, I'm not deaf, Dumb and Blind.
You're two-faced and a self Centered *****.

Us getting back together is one hopeless wish.

Fallen

I hit rock bottom, slowly losing my 
mind
Looking for hope, seems hard to 
find.
Picking up the pieces, posting them 
for the world.
Depression making me sick, started 
endlessly to hurl.


Pushing for a better life, I'm 
begining to look down,
Saying to all my loved ones, this my 
status now.
Please understand the pain, fighting 
with my all,
I'm shermaine smith, and I'm 
writing my rise and fall.

Mindset

Mindset

I cry till there's nothing left
My future is blinded by pain
Self-Control is my Sword
I have nothing to gain

This is my life's marathon
And I can't seem to race. I'm eating all my Words
Found out they have no taste

So I'm looking to find happiness
To Where I don't know. Why Is love my dark Mindset?
Hope This Depressing Feeling Dies!

Never Was Part 1

I counted the days that we will be 
together, 
The answer to you told me that it 
was going be never. 
Nights i stayed up, and thought 
about our past, 
Dreams i saw that we will never last.


Pain in my soul started to fail, 
That the love i had for you was 
going to hell. 
my emotions cried out, where does 
is begin. 
When is this depression ever going 
to end? 



So I say to the heavens,  Why me, 
Why?
My heart burns feel like I want to 
Die. 
Sadness is my only dark point to 
this cause, 
Why did I fall in love with the Never 
Was?

Timebomb

Tick, Tick, Tick....Losing my cool.
This seems not to be the real me.
Why do I feel like a fool?
My feelings are dull, stress is a habit.


Floating away in emptiness, life has put on a red light.
What am I doing here....is this a sick joke?
Killing my mood with Childish rage, laughter is bliss.
Shining light clears my thoughts, I still have little hope

Tick, Tick, Tick......this is the sign.
To my self-conflict and selfish mind..
Tick Tick Tick......BOOM!

Timeline

I cry without knowing,

Sadness seems to cloud my pain.

Love is a hopeless dream,

Death wheels its self-gain.

Emotional daggers thrown left and 
right,

Life flips for endless time

War starts as a sick joke.

Peace begins a picture in a child's 
mind.

Alone

As I sit cross the room,
Staring at our love die. 
Seeing you leave outta my life, 
makes me cry. 
My emotions is shot, falling into the 
sea, 
I didn't know how you really felt 
about me.

Heart is broken in two, and You 
don't seem not to care.
I thought you wanted to have a life 
that we both can share. 
Lay down all my feelings on the 
table....To show you what I see. 
Every second of every day....I pray 
to let our love be.

Is the end of What we had, Is this 
how you feel?
To be honest, I still love you. But in 
the back of my mind..I can't seem to 
deal.
 In time...My heart will start to heal!

As I Am

I'm going to be the teacher,
 and put myself to the test,
 To all who knows me well....I'm not 
better than all the rest. Not the 
smartest..or the coolest....the 
person with self-hate Even after 25 
years of life...can't even get 
into....the social gate.

I have self esteem issues that can't 
go away, 
Meeting the coolest people in the 
world, but they can't seem to stay.
 I always rise to the top....to find my 
place in the world, with each step 
that I climb...my pain starts to curl.

I do make big mistakes that I try to 
fix in my life, Every-time I think i get 
it...I kill it with a rusty knife. So far, I 
hurt the ones who i love most of all, 
they can't seem to trust me..and 
that's the writing on the wall.

My feeling are so dear to me, I don't 
know what to think. Sitting alone 
with no support......mind and heart 
can't sync. So I ask this question 
....To those who live, Is it so hard for 
those to Forgive?
