God Forbid

god forbid my happiness
blessing nothing but my pain
toturted by my thoughts
running from my memories
no peace even with sleep
hearing a childs laugh
seeing a womens smile
reaching out to touch them 
so close I can feel their warmth 
begging for forgiveness
silent tears fall from my eyes
whispers of hope reach my ears
my stomachs filled with butterflies
intoxicated by the smell of their hair
I begin to lose my despair
with a flash of light they disappear
and I wake up in the nightmare 
again.

Make Up

lipstick run red
mascara on your eyes
the blush on your cheeks,
makes me feel warm inside
to bad it all was a cover on the skin
to hide with beauty the ugly that lives within

My Heart

The sound of a broken heart caught in a echo to be repeated endlessly inside the lies in with which it trusted. 
Words of abhorance hidden behind the sweet sounds of empty promises and forgotten tomorrow's.
My heart aches and burns as it is slowly chipped away with every smile that is as fake as the time when we first vowed to be only for each other.
Autumn leaves is the color of the eyes i adored for being filled with hope and light that brightened my life from the dark that i cling too so desperately. Now i see they are filled with flames that only burns the ones who dare dance in their hypnotic glow.
I love you... I love you more.... I love you most..... Words that were used but never proven.
Betrayed i sit here quiet and afraid of the consequences caused by the thoughtless actions of others.
 A deaf mind to a subconscious scream that is never heard my being clings to life with the ignorance of a fool that has already died and has yet too realize it. 
Im so confused
what i should do.
Is it all in my head
I don't understand
I opened the gate
Let you be in my future
You said love but really meant hate
Is it fun to see me suffer
I only asked for honesty
But all i ever hear are lies. 
Why
Why
Why
Tortured despised.
Lies
Lies
Lies
At least you can say you tried. 
How do you tell your heart goodbye 
How do i live without you by my side
Im not sure, im blind obviously
Living in false trust drowning in denial
I wish i could believe
I wish i could trust
But with the non stop lies ive had enough.
Tell me the truth, forget my feelings
Im not listening to your crying and yelling. 
Did you kiss him, suck him? Love him? Or even touched him?
You came home with one man several times
Even though your 3 minutes walk from home. And youve known him for months. Long. before you 
You hid your phone as you talked with another and deleted your messenger every day after work to hide the messages filled with idk what. You were around these men before during and after work every single day. I went to work to better our lives every day . Getting paid like a slave so i could learn a trade so we could move away.
I am confused
what should i do
I feel abused and misused
I just want the truth
I need to hear it from you
You have my heart
And your tearing it apart

Life

life hits you like a train

as you think the suns going to come up it starts to rain 
there is nothing you can do but sit and wait
so as the clock ticks time away you begin to not recognize your face
counting down the weeks months and years 
you begin too succumb to your worst fears 
then out of nowhere a light reaches out to grab you 
but you cant reach no matter what  you do
so once again you have to wait for the light that is always late.

Tired

Up all night awake all day 
             Everything has turned to gray
             Sleep eludes every step 
             Slips from the strongest grip
             Still working no matter what 
             Bones grinding into dust 
            Going home at days end 
           Just to wait to start again

Light At the End of the Tunnel

Spinning the shadows close ever quicker
Gasping for breath energy spent
Running for the light that shows the path
The wind scratches against the skin
The earth  falling away  as each foot steps
whispers of promised torments  they wont forget
A pillar of light finally within sight
So close to the edge flames reach out to lick the naked flesh
A leap of blind faith off the edge
Reaching hands grasping air as they surf the waves of heat 
Hope fading, fate begins to be accepted 
Cold death finally here 
We can now disappear
A light draws near
Taste of fear on the tongue  
whispers of torments not forgotten

Chosen

Devoid of life,a barren 
wasteland.
Endless whispers 
echoed in silence.
The path chosen 
streches forever into 
the abyss which is 
eternity
Countless questions 
with no answers
Hidden ambitions, 
countless fears.
Hell is still in sight I 
hear.

The Fat Bass

The fat bass always bites last. 
The fat bass is never fast. 
The fat bass takes its time.      
 The fat bass waits in line. 
The fat bass is finally mine.

Believe

believe that one day you'll get a good job 

believe that one day you'll get a good car

believe that one day you'll have a good wife

believe that one day you'll have a good kid 

believe that one day you'll grow old 

believe that one day you'll be happy

believe that all day and night 

believe that for the rest of your life.
