May you both rot in hell
While we all cheer along to the wedding bells.

May you cry and sulk
While we’ll be buying all them flowers
Ordering in bulk

It's not your choice.
You can’t decide.
It's what she wants.
You can’t deny.

This is the moment in life
where she has every right
to choose where her heart belongs
This is the moment in life
Where she sees the light
Where she knows that Love can never go wrong.

All her life she blindly followed,
always listening to constant
“I know what’s best for you"
All her life she went where your desires showed.
Never uttering an “I dont wan't to”  or a “No, thank you.”

Don’t use pointless blackmail,
Come on! If you fall that low
Then as parents you ultimately Fail
Do not be that shallow.

May you both rot in hell,
While we all cheer along to the wedding bells

Folds of water
Layers of dirt
Bubbling foam
A vast body
wrapping itself around the Earth

Schools of life
Clumps of Color
This is where it thrives
The souls of creatures
A potpourri of lives

The might of the ocean
The strength of the Sea
No one can match
No one could hardly believe
its ability
to devour kingdoms
Engulf islands and make them its own
Drag them down
Yank them by their legs, shatter their bones
Drag them down
Til they ultimately can descend no more

I can almost hear the primordial sea deity bellow
With a voice so deep
It shocks, explores
and shakes your soul
An immense
Deep bass tone.
It strikes more than just a powerful chord
“Come back to me”
“Return to your mother’s womb, down here, down low”
“You belong to me, my right, my property!”
“Return to the world below.”
“Come back home.”

Under the Sea
What's deep beneath?
The iridescent water
The clouds of foam
Conquered by monsters?
Down there,
Do sirens roam?
We aren't aware
We do not know

Enigmatic waves
Rows of fossils
Caked in dirt
A haven for aquatic raves
A museum holding remnants
telling the story of the Mother Earth

This is the Sea
Take a swim sometime and feel its rhythm
Listen to its story

Flow with the sea’s entrancing beat
I have faith and I believe
That the sea is a world of its own
Accentuated sometimes by its powerful voice or melodious hum
No less mighty than the world above.
Let's keep this beautiful wet world untouched
to keep it as it is, the world we love

Its Crimson Red Nose
A striking symbol,
A jolly tale,
Santa soars in his sleigh
& He sees the way,
He never fails,
The route unfolds
because of the bright glow
of Rudolph's red nose.

Oh no
I have a situation
I wrenched my heart out and slammed it down
Pain was a destination
A place where I didn't want to go
But I arrived anyway
So quick
The seconds
I couldn't count
My heart
I smashed it ******* the gravelly ground
Don't know if it was worth it
I wish I couldn't feel
But I felt it alright
The misery flooded
So much darkness
Everything became as black as a stormy night
I had no choice but to give in
To just let myself drown

My heart
Or should I say
Whats left of it
Pieces of shattered and broken reminiscence of feeling
Could not beat anymore
Not at all sure
If there was a cure
Perhaps a chance to undergo healing
I was certain
Cardiac surgery could not repair this peculiar feeling

It has lost its life and soul
Whats left
Could see no light and feel no hope
It felt cold
It felt dead
It felt meaningless
It was filled to the brim
with despair and dread

My brain
was going to lose its connection
I suffered from a conscious concussion
Head throbbing
Consciousness threatening
Threatening to slip away
I just kept walking
Told myself
Hey
No way
For my sake
You're going to stay

Frustrated
Ill-fated
Outdated
Well
That's what I've heard

Words filled with venom
Whispers
Spreading around like poisonous vapor
Spreading around like lethal cancer
Stares and smirks
Glares and jerks

No
I have to go

I just want to fly away
And the only thing I want to say
Is
Goodbye

Goodbye
For a better life

I wanted to go to a place where dreams come true
I lived in a fairy tale which was laced
With Honey
Nothing but sickly-sweet Goo
Fattening and Fake
I was going to go there with no one but you
But you had no support to give
Did you?
Take Take Take
It was all you could do

I saw your ugly being
Concealed behind your facade
Indeed a horrendous thing
Obviously tortured
Obviously scarred

Malicious and Mean
After your period of pain
You became twisted
Metamorphosed into something I have never seen
Mutation of human character
That describes you
To what species you belong to
I have absolutely no clue

I just want to fly away
And the only thing I want to say is
Goodbye

Goodbye for a better life

A place where I'm happy with myself
A place where I know peace and love blooms all around
A place with no one else
But the people I love
The people I would go anywhere for
All the way down
Deep beneath the ground
I would go there happily
For these people
I would go deep down
A place where evil can never reach me
A place where malevolence can never be found

A place with my family
My universe
The location doesn't matter
As long as they're there
I could never be happier

The people who keep me on track
I'm so lucky
So **** lucky
To have people who are always there
To have my back

So right now
I'm glad
I said Goodbye
Glad I left
I'm glad I said
Goodbye

Goodbye
for a better life.
