When will I wake up
From this dream
That's become a reality
That's become every day

When will I rise
And open my eyes
And smile and laugh
Like everything is okay

When will I live
Like this life is enough
Like I'm tougher than tough
Like I can make it

When will this end
This sorrowful dream
This wreck of a life
That I call my own.
David Jan 2016
With the setting of the sun
And the setting of your eyes
We part our ways
We say our goodbyes

With our last goodbye
And one last gentle breath
The impact you've made
And the love that you've left

Rest easy grandad
Know that we love you
Know that we miss you
Know all you've done

We will never forget
The luck that we've had
To be touched by your love
To be blessed by your life

Rest easy my friend
Leave all this pain
Rest easy my friend
We'll see you again.
David Nov 2015
Catch me I'm falling
I can't help myself
Deeper and deeper
Into this blue abyss

Falling and falling
All Over again
I find myself crawling
Back out again
David Nov 2015
Stay away
From my paper heart
It's been wrinkled and torn
And ripped apart

There ain't enough glue
To piece it back
A broken down soul
A tired old hack

What's left of my heart
Is scattered around
The truth of my heart
Cannot be found
David Aug 2015
Pick up the pieces
And start again
As if I didn't hurt you
As if I didn't leave

Take your pills
Those lovely drugs
That keep you sane
That make you free

Free of me
Free of my jail
Free of my grasp
Free of my pain

Stay Away from my hindrance
Get Away from my ways.
Stay clear of my heart
Before I tear yours to shreds
David Jun 2015
We live we die
We laugh we cry
We love we lose
We fall we bruise
We build we break
We lie we fake
We honour we trust
We hate we lust
And all that time
We rush through
Without meaning
We miss the view
David Jun 2015
Burn all my love
For you deserve none
You've broken my trust
Bury the ashes

The deep scorching pain
To hear such a truth
You've broken my trust
You've burnt all my love

I've made my choice
To bury everything
All that you've meant
All that you've done

That deep apology
So sincere and sweet
So truthful and honest
Means nothing to me

Means nothing to me
As do you my love
Burn all my love
And bury the ashes.
