why do you think putting this needle in your vein
is going to take away the pain
is avoiding your issues just going to make them go away
or are they still going to be there when your high is gone the next day
this upper is your downer but your already down
can you get any lower
your lower than the ground
why is getting back on your feet so hard
the pain to your body is nothing for you are emotionally scarred
why does it feel like when your sober your high
but when your high you feel sober
why can't this affliction just stop and be over
you ruined my teenage life to this point
you lied when you said nothing more was to come of that joint
**** was a gateway drug for you
then came sherm, ex,and ***
but the needle felt so right.
so did wrapping the belt around your arm so tight,
your high came fast and with out any pain,
but your once sunny days are nothing but rain,
but that's your fault and you messed up bad.
rehab couldn't stop you,
you wanted to get high,
but you do what every addict does,
you cheat, steal and lie,
so now your out and free,
but this euphoric rush you crave has taken yet another member of your family,
now you sit around thinking to you self " ****"
your On the outs and your still feeling bad,
but your life is now in your hands so you should be glad...
Dedicated to my dad.

You're fading from my mind.
I want to have a relationship with you.
I want to truly forgive you
But I just can't...
Something is stopping me from doing so,
Maybe its you
Or maybe its me
...
I wish you'd open up to me.
I hope one day you see yourself
The way I see you
.......
I might not ever say this but... daddy, i love you so much ♡

My dad broke my heart
Way before a guy had the chance to

Kids who have holes in their souls
In the shape of their dad. And
If a father is unwilling or
Unable to fill that hole, it can
Leave a wound that is not
Easily healed
-Roland Warren

71% of high school
Dropouts in the United States come
From fatherless homes

*A man ain't
**** if he's
No father
To his
Children

A fathers hurt
isn't the childs responsibility

The dark side of the moon looks like an abandoned child...

Craters and dust, left alone in the wild.

The dark side of the moon looks like
a single mother with bruises on her face...

*And a motherless child
lost out in space.

If only your mother would have loved you right,
maybe then you would know how to love a women.
If only your father would have stuck around,
maybe then you would know how to be a man.

Ifs and onlys all akimbo
leaves me confused, my heart in limbo
what is what and who is whoodoo
love is love, not gris gris voodoo


But I wouldn't expect
for you to know that when,
you don't even know your own worth
If only you knew that you aren't worthless

Can't make excuses for my mama
she carried on without a comma
but i never knew my dad
the best father I never had


Maybe if you knew your father then,
you would be more forgiving, more loving
If only you knew how much you meant
to your mother, your father, this world

If I truly meant something
perhaps it would mean less suffering
my momma loves me, that I know
but my dad got drunk..and just said no


If you only knew....
But I guess that you don't.

Maybe I never, ever will
but I let my heart, find love..still
if there's some way I can treat you better
teach me how....show me, to the letter


I wished that you loved yourself
then, maybe you would know how to love

I can only pray you'll show me,
take the time to get to know me


I can't show you.
You'll have to figure it out
I can't show you how to love yourself
Only you can

I am a work in progress
merely a work in progress


I can't help you if you
won't let me in or forgive me

Here is my invitation
my forgiveness
my welcome mat
please......enter this wounded heart


If only you knew...
that I was wounded too

I can heal your wounds
wipe away your tears
just let me inside,
your heart is where I long to live


If you look on the inside then, you might find
a scared, insecure and lifeless girl.
The girl I've spent most of my life trying to hide.

*Oh, but you are so full of life
the kind of girl who could be my world
no need to fear life any longer
grab onto my heart and we'll both grow stronger
no more hiding...who is beautiful
it's you, it's me...so beautiful
and as for insecurity
i'll believe in you & you believe in me
If only you knew...
