Pain

I am Pain and Misery

           I wonder if they can see the devil within me

                       I hear demons at night  

                      I see dreams of dark fright

                     I want my life to be bright

                           I am Pain and Misery

               

                I pretend that everything is all right

               I feel that my dreams are worth chasing

                    I touch my heart as I feel it racing

       I worry that my true self is not worth embracing

       I cry that my demons are something I’m facing

                            I am Pain and Misery

                                                                                                                                    I  understand that life is worth debating and is worth saving   

                 I say goals are worth making

 I dream of being one day being interesting to others in the music I write

               I try to stay strong with all my might

        I hope one-day people can see their inner light

                              I am Pain and Misery

The Feel of Loneliness

Dreams of dark fright from which keep me up at night a soulless young man with a mind confused with a dream of succeeding being happy while having it all but down inside he felt that he was sinking into a bottomless hole  a hole of nothingness cause the darkness steadily consumes his soul loneliness , misery, and sadness can a rip a man into pieces when really life itself but a dream inside a dream so yet the young man realized his dream was his life the entire time he began to gaze off into the darkness starring into a mirror but not seeing a reflection startled him for he was in fact starring into nothingness because confidence of communication with others made him realize he was alone and that he was but a thought compiled of flesh emotions and a brain which makes him sane flashbacks of seeing himself walking in the rain oh there the feeling is once again pain the pain from which you feel but no one can see because of how he bottles everything all the heartbrakes, all the sadness from his past, and all the times he would find himself alone on his own because he is grown…But there it is again that feeling , that feeling of incompleteness , the feeling that something in life is missing, for what can it be ? Could it be a father's love, could it be more time he could've spent by his grandpa's side before the cancer ate him up from the inside, or could it be the touch , love , devotion, and emotions from a woman he can call his so he walks this lonely path waiting for the wrath of god to strike him down to the floor for the sins he's committed are so strong that they can't be fixed with time so he ponders alone making many rhymes expressing the true way he feels deep down inside.

What's Been On My Mind

What's been on my mind is why love so hard to find at a young age we are given the chance of seeing couples dance.The envious feeling of having someone to hold and long to call your own.Yet it feels like not everything is right with the generation of youth.Hearts became corrupt by money,body type,and being materialistic. Isn't it a bit twisted as to what's going on with the youth you see more sadness in a persons eyes such as my own.Then there's the longing feeling of becoming grown and wondering if your'e going to die alone.Time is all up to you and what you do.To each person has their own destiny for we are the creators of our own universe.Seems the generation is getting more diverse but in the end we all end up in a hearse. Dead because death is inevitable isn't it incredible living a lifetime up to a certain age?So how did you survive how did you thrive to stay alive.Who will you be in this generation decide your own destination.
