You;
Lying,
Trifling,
Conniving,
Betraying,
Dual facing,
Manipulating,
Two timing,
Heart breaking,
Neglecting,
Affection lacking,
All taking,
No giving,
Love of my life,
Just know this one thing...
I'm awaking
To the wrong doing
I hope you realize what you are losing

The grass isn't always bluer
On the other side
But tomorrow WILL bring with it
Greener skies
mmmmhmm

How many tears
Are acceptable at night?
What about the ones
That bleed into the daylight?
I can keep most of them silent
And my eyelids put up a good fight
But once they are breached
It is an embarrassing sight
"It's okay, go ahead, let it all out"
The relief from the release is slight
Due to the inability to get them all out
Here's to hoping one day that I might
...CHEERS...

"I wish I may
I wish I might
Have this wish
I wish tonight"

What is the wish I wish,
To a mostly empty sky?
There is none
There's never one
I instead hold up
My carved up wrists
Eight feet high
And I don't wish,
I cry the question why
To no reply
"Same as last night" I sigh
Then wish you well
Before my last goodbye

Waste not these salty tears
On bygones and yesteryears
For moments when the past steers
It often veers into rekindled fears

Thoughts berate with little truth
While memories choose when to lie
Often words spoken change nothin'
Though time and time again they try
Feel free to take your unspoken to the grave
What is spun by the victor is sung forever
A good liar proclamation should have been taken as a warning
But judgment sees through even the best of pretender

I sit down to write
A particular piece
I don't want to keep writing about pain
My muse and I fight
We don't find any peace
My need for change buckles under the strain
