Play me a lullaby daddy
Before you shut your eyes
Here daddy maybe you can
Play better
without a bottle in your hand

Please just sing me to sleep
Before the monsters come out to play
When I no longer recognize my daddy
The way he is during the day

Pick me up and take me to bed
Before the evil thoughts start creeping in your head
Tuck me in and give me one last kiss
Before you forget all of those moments you missed

But no matter gone or here
You'll be my daddy forever
I'll love you with no fear
Because my daddy is my daddy
far or near
I miss you,
I need you,
Why'd you have to go?
I know you're still with me,
but I miss your warm embrace.
The way you could make it all better,
with just a little wink.
I miss you daddy,
I need you daddy.
Why'd you have to go?
You've been on my mind,
an awful lot lately.
I keep wondering if you'd be proud,
of who I am today,
or if you'd say I'd lost my way.
I'm afraid you'd be disappointed.
That you'd look at me and say,
where are your plans,
what are you doing?
I just wish I could talk to you,
at least one more time.
That I could say,
I love you daddy,
and here you say it back.
I miss you daddy,
I need you,
I know your still here with me,
But why'd you have to go?
This poem is for my daddy just because I miss him and he's been on my mind a lot. Love you daddy.

headphones in
listening to that music

the music I listened to
before my life got twisted

I wish I could go back to that time
where it seems nothing could go wrong
I have been mistaken until this point.
Music did not save my life,
But
Music gave me the streghth
And the power,
To help me save my own life.
And that is the beauty of it.
Music is my escape,
My clear landscape
Where, with my words a rhythm,
I can balance my optimism and pesimisim.

Music is my love and hate,
Can't you hear my heart beat like an 808.
Blues ,pop and every sound in between,
It's endless symphonies play in my dreams.

I can always depend on you when life gets tough
You make me tremble,cry, puff and laugh.
The last thing I hear every night
Music you are my life.
music is my escape.
for my thoughts to feel wanted,
to push through the barrier,
that needs to be broken.
for the rush of words,
to suffocate my mind,
to determine the mood.
happy or sad,
excited or angry,
what's it going to be?
to bump me up,
or break me down,
press the button,
and we'll find out.
I love you more than music
And that's saying a lot considering music literally controls my life
Every breath, every step is to a beat
But now the only beat I listen to is your heart
When I'm pressed to your chest
Late nights I spent where the only soundtrack was our breathing

You see you've become my music
