there's always expectations
when you have limitations
all their eyes
turn towards you
when time has run out

and no one will let us out
and no one will let me out

she's not willing
she just wants
a soul and human feelings
and when she has what she wants
the others still are waiting

and no one gets away
and no one negotiates

when you finally heal
all you have is another day
the expectations crush you
and limit what you have to say

men fight for what they
see. touch. taste. smell
we grasp. fix. restore. repair


most are strong enough to endure
physical pains aches. diseases
without a hint of complaint

some are quiet never speak out
inside hoping their actions speak louder

men do not have the features
that make women beautiful
there are no smooth edges
there are no shapely thighs. *******

god did not bless man
god gave him woman

to ponder
to investigate
to protect
to engage

i hope she never makes us stop

i want to reach up
choke myself
but everything is dead
from the neck up

stuffed away and never
want to remember

all i got is memories

no breath
no blood flow
no life or want for

dead from the neck down

half blindness
and all bitter
a squeeze
holding on so tightly

singing in a wail of tears
lies you told
Or overcome
in debt to your self

pain and sorrow
dont ****
passion and love do

lust and hate
tear you down

you owe me money
you stole my peace

i dont know what to do
so i drink and take her pills
but she shares and accepts
that all i want
is to drown my thoughts

days it works
nights i slay insomnia
and embrace amnesia
six hours later....
dawn breaks and it starts
all over again

i could use the money back
sitting on the couch
gets expensive and depressing

and the other ***** took
everything away from me too....

again
