Drowning

when you get your heartbroken 
it feels like you're drowning............
it's so hard to breathe
your eyes start to water and you can't think
your face is so pale and your heart is slowly but surely stopping
it's so hard for you to move
you're sinking
your last thought is he/she told me he/she loved me
you've now hit rock bottom
then right when you're at your end
someone pulls you out to tell you that you were
DROWNING...................

Frightful Friday

you and your friends are chilling
when you spotted this man through the crowd
he walks up to you
you're smitten
happy that you caught his eye
the both of you are dancing then he asks you do you want a drink
not thinking you quickly respond
yes, get me a coke please
as you're dancing and drinking
your heart beats faster, so you start to sweating
you can't think, it's hard to focus
your eyelids get heavy, but it's not from being sleepy
you've past out just to wake up to a man forcing himself upon you
you're trying so hard to push him off
but your body is numb
what's left to do but cry?
it hurts your heart to know that your virginity is being taken by a man you've just met
your body is so fragile, but he doesn't care
when he finished he got up and left you there
should you tell?
would they believe you?
your friend finds you in the room
and quickly calls 911
she's praying and wishing that you're okay
you'll never want to go out again
all because of that FRIGHTFUL NIGHT

Death Through Understanding

Feelings of dispair
waiting in cold sheets
yearning for your body heat to keep me warm
another sad love song
my thoughts are finally understood
if my sheets are cold, then someone elses are warm
the marks on your body
similar to bruises, but these weren't caused by fights
rolled in sin
trying to hide behind showers
washing off your sweat
having sex with her 
then making love to me
love isn't a game
Death Through Understanding
lipstick on your collar
perfume kissing you lightly
my heart says you're faithful
but my mind knows you aren't
plauged with the reality that another women has felt your love
if my sheets are cold
someone elses are warm
Death Through Understanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!
