Rose

Death comes to all
Like a dying rose.
It is beautiful 
But full of sorrow.
Life is beautiful
But death
Death is gorgeous.

Beast To Prince

Everyone called me a beast,
So a beast I became.

So all everyone saw,
Was just a beast. 

But you saved me from the mob,
You saved me from my beast.

You gave me hope,
You gave me peace.

You call me your prince,
So a prince I became.

The Long Con

Four years it took
For us to talk

We lasted forever
You always cross my mind

Its been a while
Since I was true to myself 

I’ve been on the run
Like a convict on the move

I coned you
Just as I coned myself

I look at this book
And I remember those three words

You wrote them 
I erased them

I was in love with a memory 
You were in love with a fake

It took awhile 
It was the long con

Monster

They say it’s inside
The reason for the nightmares

They told me to fight it
But I can’t win

They say it’s gone 
But it’s still there

They all ran away 
Because it came out to play

They told her to get away 
But she wanted him near

They were in shock 
When she held him tight

They live in fear
While she loves him dear.

Rise and Fall

I was a fallen hero
You were a rising angel.

You lead me to the light
I showed you the night.

You stayed in the night
I followed the light.

I am a rising hero
You are a fallen angel.

Beautiful Death

Why do you stay
You cut me so deep
Your words are like weapons
Your sharpest blade
They cut so deep
Deeper then I dare go.

Down

Why do you do this 
Why do you care

You tell me to leave 
You then tell me you still care

I'm mentally ill
I'm mentally down

Your driving me under
Your driving me to Hell

Beaten

I was beaten 
I was broken

And that made me nothing 
It made me disgusting 

You took everything 
You could have left something 

But I’m just broken
I’m just beaten.

Your Lie In April

Your lie in April
Ended our love

You wear my ring
But still you remain gone

Your gone 
I’m lost

I wish we could go back 
Before your lie in April

Dead and Broken

Just leave 
Just go 
I am dead
I am broken

You left me alone
You are gone
I am alive
I am healing

Just stay away
Just stay gone
I am alive 
I am healed

Your back
Your not gone
I am dead
I am broken.
