Under Her Influence

I cannot feel,I can barely 
speak.
Comfortably numb,incredibly 
weak.
Her,the same.
Am I to blame?
A simple match catches flame 
and suddenly i hear my name.
That soft spoken tone.."don't 
let me be alone"..
That's what she said,eyes 
rolled back looking halfway 
dead.
We touch for a moment and
"Never"..i say.
Forever I'll stay.
My speech is impaired.
But,HEART.thats always there.
..its time for more.
She takes a few,I take few.
Days fly by,so fast its true.
And everything I do,its all for you..
I'm under your influence...

Will I

will I...see you again?
Now in a grave,and then a 
friend.
Broken dreams,a heart to 
tend.
Will I...know when the time 
comes.
Is it right or wrong?the 
feeling I get when I hear your 
song..
I'll never know..how fast or 
slow.
The time it takes,to finally go..
Suicide,that's a no.
Contemplated many 
times,and when I do that's 
when it shines.
Eyes open,but lights blind.
Will i....i will not.

For Ariel,and anyone feeling 
suicide is the only way out..its 
not.

Lover Friend Lost

I just want you to know,that 
not a single day goes.Wishing 
you were close while I got my 
eyes closed.And its feeling 
like a dream to me,thinking 
someday you can be with me 
but under the circumstances I 
understand that we can never 
be..promised id be there for 
you and you promised you'd 
be there for me.Told you that 
I cared for you and you told 
me that you cared for 
me.Alcohol and 
methadone,no livin life 
carefully.thanks for all the 
memories and good times 
that you shared with 
me..Thats all I needed,yeah 
just to keep me going.told me 
you loved me but that that 
was the drugs showing,and 
now I gotta deal with the 
thought of us never 
knowing.weather we should 
be together or just keep the 
games going...

It Hurts

I'm 21 years of age..i no longer have a father..a father that for the longest time i felt like i hated,just to realize that i really loved him all along..a father i smoked weed with and had back and forth issues with for the last eight years.and one that i sometimes took for granted,matter of fact alot of the times..which i now regret because, i cry out loud for him. whenever i CAN cry at least...At the viewing of my dad at his funeral,i waited for most people to leave the room before i went up and said my peace.not out of shame,but because it felt right..feeling and holding his cold dead fingers,knowing there is no more life inside of what used to be my fathers body..kissing his head in awe,it hit me like a ton of bricks.in an instant i fall to my knees,still holding on.shouting out loud how sorry i was.remembering what i could remember very vividly in my head.regretting moments i could have just hugged and said the words i love you..it was too late for that..i was talking to a lifeless version of a man who was once my father..wishing i had one more day just to say and do things i never did...they say move on,..i say show me how..i sure hope there is a god and a heaven because when i die i definitely want to be reunited with my father..to everybody and anybody reading,don't forget to say i love you to the ones who raised you and made you part of who you are..you will regret it when that person is no longer around..and it hurts,it really hurts...
Love you dad.
