Excuse me Do I know you Do you know anything about me About my life About my internal strife that I am facing at this very moment no you don’t so what gives you the nerve to feel entitled to be able to tell me a complete stranger what I should do how I should feel what ****** expression I should emote I choose that You don’t

You might as well walk out right now Sleeping with her I won’t allow Break up with me before you do Can’t have my cake and eat her too Mesmerized by her pretty face I forgot you needed that chase Don’t blame the ***** that you pursue Can’t have my cake and eat her too. Did you think that I’d be okay With sitting back to watch you play I hope her clap is hard to chew Can’t have my cake and eat her too. Don’t worry I’ll heal from your scorn My new life will not be forlorn You can leave right now, take my cue Can’t have my cake and eat her too.

Cake
As I lay there weeping and sopping heaving and gasping for a breath as all of the air that had once fluttered within me vanished like I had been punched in the gut I thought of what I had done and what I had failed to do the emotions came flooding back pouring over me as I lay motionless holding my knees into my chest I felt dead like a corpse unable to move but then I envied the dead for they could not feel the pain that overcome my weary soul As I lay there waiting for the numbness I prayed that it came soon

As I Lay
Do you choose or will you blame this on fate? Your insolence is inescapable And yet I allow thee to deprecate Myself till I become incapable. With such malice it cannot be legal, Abusing ignorance, I must comply. You call me chicken instead of eagle So I dig, peck, and scratch when I could fly. Departing once I realized your lies, Fleeing with haste, there was zero forbearance. So arrogant it took you by surprise, that I did not heed your crude deterrence. I will return one day, not to abhor but to demonstrate, how high I can soar.

Eagle
Flying free and glowing bright You scoop me up and hold me tight Now in your jar, you use my light You poke holes in the lid so you think I'm fine But my light still fades and I still die.

Firefly
I look ahead I look behind To search for what I cannot find A journey gone Into the past To feel the love That did not last One step forward Two steps back Following footprints I cannot track Sinking fast Into the sand Wishing I could Grab your hand To pull me from This dark despair But you aren’t here And you aren’t there Only remaining Inside my mind I look ahead I look behind

I Look Ahead
As I lay in the middle of the bed I don't think that there's room for you I looked to my right there's a small insignificant space you will not fit On my left there's even less space as my bed's against the wall You come up with a solution Pick me up and you lay in the middle of the bed You place me down on top of you We both fit together

Bed
I’m going to accept that as truth Even it’s false Because of all the options This is the best alternative The only one That could keep this friendship alive I will ignore all evidence to the contrary Put on my blinders And walk straight ahead No turning back

Truth
Once a precisely lawn was cut Lonely uncle, left in a rut Grass grows high, as he hits new lows But you’re not here, and so it goes Images of that yellow chair Where you would be, but now aren’t there Sitting where you sat, I repose But you’re not here, and so it goes Orphaned belatedly in life One does not expect pain and strife Lacking love a parent bestows But you’re not here, and so it goes With you all, I shall juxtapose No doors open, one last box to close Upon this earth shall lay a rose But you’re not here, and so it goes
