Look into my eyes and deny the truth
Tell me a lie that I haven’t heard before
Tilt your head and smile
Believe that your charm is impressive
...
Principles are yelled at the top of lungs
Spitting daggers of truth
Deflating the bubbles of lies
That shields the ignorant from reality
...
I fold my shaking hands and hang my weary head
Praying one day I will be able to leave my past behind
God help me understand how to face these trials
And in the end be able to keep my peace of mind
...
There are bodies laying on the floor
Blood seeping from the room
Covering their wounds
But that’s death
...
I gaze down the barrel of my gun
Fixating on the grooves that radiate
Wondering what it will be like
When I finally pull the trigger
...
You ask me who I am
And that is a loaded question
I do what I want, whenever I can
Without a lecture from anyone
...
My body belongs in a youngster’s generation,
Free from gray hairs and age spots,
But there are wrinkles on my shriveled heart,
Symptomatic of life’s harsh lessons.
...
I have always been different
Marching to the beat of my drum
And this time will be no different
...
If I could not find a way then I must try to salvage part of my day
Thinking, breathing, debating about time and the spaces between
When nothing compares with everything and no solution is found
Hide and seek, remember and forget the past and present
...
I stare at this computer waiting for the perfect,
Inspirational words to flow across the screen,
But my mind becomes clouded with the darkness
That has consumed my decrepit excuse for a human being.
...
Mamma said look where you walk
And speak slowly when you talk
Mamma said don’t talk to strangers
And watch out for any unknown dangers
...
There are wars that are to be won
And there are wars to be lost
There are lives to be saved
And there are lives to be lost
...
The words that I write are collections of random thoughts that have been collecting dust in a closet built for ghosts.)
Your Lies
Look into my eyes and deny the truth
Tell me a lie that I haven’t heard before
Tilt your head and smile
Believe that your charm is impressive
Believe again
Look into my eyes and see me
I know the truth to all your lies
I call your bluff
Your charm won’t work on me anymore
Not again
Look at the end of this barrel
Can you see the truth in your lies?
This bullet was meant for you
Smile as you bleed out
Never again
