Insanity might be making plans, But I hear the winds utterance, To reminisce only shows you're human, Tear drops might not be pain, But a memory finding its way, You left my heart homeless, Thought love provides shelter, That first kiss was careless, But at the time it was all that matters, Does she notice your mood swings, Does she know your flare for a neck kiss, The spot that tickles most, How you go quiet when at your worst, How calm can she be when the anger drifts in, The right words your ear craves for, But if all this was important, Why am I left with just a pillow to cuddle, And a salty tear drop that paints my lips, All I hear is he's no good, We told you, Maybe insanity is closer, Because the voices are getting louder, An exit from life would be an exit from pain, So I stupidly overdose, Waiting on my soul to evaporate, From the shackles of love.

Her perspective
Talk to God but he never listens So I talk to man who keeps the truth hidden Life’s true meaning now stings Birth of infidelity from deceit Death of loyalty from loss of identity There’s pain in secrets Aches in words if we listen Depth from days of thinking Could the soul be empty Lingering and searching She spoke of my pain She said she witnessed it for years My bruised heart that craved for love The very same one that caught me off guard Should there be a reason for an act Or a season to react What would have been left without the pills A damaged soul with nothing left to feel

Offguard
You remember that kiss The one after the word beauty The expression of your personality You remember that high night The twilight after the baby was taken out As our promises synced with the waves And our names engraved on the sand Appreciation of nature left us conscious You said forever is our bond Now I’ve seen time mock love I see the union between pain and memories How can I accept this Is your departure meant to be my bliss It’s five years and I’m still right here The very depth you kept me in Death shall see not my forgiveness Since he gifted me with your demise

Love’s Demise
Am I on the right path? The present is not telling, But I still keep the pace going, Times get hard, Perseverance leans back, Shy tears drop, Negative thoughts dance loosely, No chain to drown its grip, Mama's words are always at my tip, Who knew hope will be this strong, My pride no longer feels among, But the one at the top, Talent and uniqueness purified me, Making my footprint immortal, Who ever inherits the mantle, Should expect surprise battles, But still remember my name, Not for the fame but the brain, And remember that hard times forever don't stay the same.
