I want to fall
I think ill fall
but if i fall will you catch me.....


*because there is a bridge and i want to fall
 Jul 2013 Destiny Diadem

No amount of alcohol
could make me numb out
the thoughts of you in my head
Desire, lust, love
I have the symptoms
of all of the above
You fit me well
like a glove
You fill me up
like alcohol fills up
an empty glass
You're the champagne
of the night
the thrill I seek
my medicine
my remedy
my one need
You're the venom
without the poison
the love, my hunger it feeds
You set my body free
Spiritually
Emotionally
*Psychically

She made breakfast
of sausage, toast and eggs,
sunny-side up.
With a smile that reflected
my shattered perception,
I scarfed the food down.
It was a pitiful apology.
The toast was burnt;
the sausage cold and
the eggs were runny.
It was a meal put together
by someone that knew
they could do no wrong.
I ate every crumb in a false show of good faith.
You see, breakfast comes every morning
with or without our participation.
The tears on my heart, however,
are only made with her designation

I'm just the fool who carries the load,
Holding all of the baggage with nowhere to go,
Left to handle myself while the people laugh at me,
A one person circus who has no feelings.

Where is my standing ovation?
Can I be offered salvation?

I've cradled your fears but no one will hold me,
Dealing with something that's bigger than me,
Kicking and screaming as you drag me away,
I put up with stress for one extra day,

Now look what has happened again
Imprisoned without a friend

Washed away tears that people have cried,
Over breakups and disputes and people who've lied,
But when I need something  to cope with the pain,
I was beaten and forgotten and bruised with the shame,

Nobody fought for me
*Nobody thought about me
