Dear Readers, / First off thanks for taking the time to read my work. I used to write in my much younger days and have recently found the passion for it again. I really enjoy writing and do it on my free time, and even though my kids may think its a silly hobby, it's what I love to do to clear my mind. Thanks again!
You hold my heart in your hands
but yet it beats for another. Why
do I allow these feelings to control
me? I have love right in front of me
but for some reason its not the love
I long for. Please release my heart
and set it free before its too late for
both of us.

Just when it is over,
you pull me in again.

In a world filled with lots of pain I look around searching for my lost soul.
Darkness overcomes like a shadow that threatens us from behind.
I search high, I search low. The answers lie between heaven and hell I know it.
Not knowing what will lies ahead I keep moving on. I have to, my mind says so.
Each passing hour I hear the clock ticking louder and louder...I am running out of time.
Into the darkness I go until it hits me like a bolt of lightning...I realize I am not in search of my soul.
I am running from myself and what is to come.

Hope lies somewhere within me.
I can feel it. I know its there.
Hope used to be my friend. Always there by my side.
Somewhere along the way, hope became my enemy.
It's been dormant for quite some time. "Hope where are you?
Show me you are real." I need you now more than ever.
Here I sit, talking to myself cause Hope won't fight back.
I guess Hope won't show it's face until I find my true self.

I sit the whiskey on the table, but keep filling my empty glass.
No matter how hard I try, I can't seem to erase the past.
I'm getting old quickly here, just remembering you dear.
Please hurry and leave my mind, but for at least one last time
It'll be one more glass, no two, hell make it the whole **** bottle.
I'll keep on drinking you away, taking it slowly sip by sip.
I close my eyes and I think of your soft touch on my lips.
I'm getting old quickly here, just remembering you dear.
Please hurry and leave my mind, but for at least one last time
It'll be one more glass, no two, hell make it the whole **** bottle.

The knock is heard at the door.
I slowly make my way toward the sound.
Dreading every move I make as I get closer.
The sound is getting louder, almost deafening me.
I know what awaits me at the other side of the door,
for Death knows no stranger.
It's up to me if I invite Death in.
I choose to keep the door closed this time
and make death wait a little longer.

After all this time don't you know me by now? Don't you know how I will react? Don't you know when I will cry? I am supposed to trust you. Love you. Respect you. How can I do that when all you seem to do is hurt me?You are just like everyone else in my life. You only care about you. When are you gonna start caring about others? I feel I don't know anyone or trust anyone. Maybe that is how life is supposed to be. Well, you know what? Get out of my life and stay out!!!
