You know that old line?
"it's not you, it's me"
that came to mind today
as I thought of your arm around my shoulder
your fingers in my soaking wet hair
You have the coldest hot tub I've ever been in by the way.
Guess it makes since
Anyways
You knew I'd liked you since I met you
then you met that wonderful girl whom which I love too,
and I stood there

I was there.

I have always been there.

and I listened to you carefully
every word, every breath
every
Silent Pause.
Where I could hear the gears whirring in your head
trying to make sense of your relationship
And I though to myself, I pity you

So I listened and ignored everything I wanted
You know why?
because for some Ungodly reason
all I wanted was your attention.
That's all.
And you have always had mine.
100%
And then she left you and I was there,
still
listening
patiently
Till you put your arm around me
in that chair
so close
till you held on to me.

But now i know what I really am to you
an outlet for your pain, happiness, sorrow, and affection.
it wasn't even because you wanted to be close to me.

It was your own petty needs.

It was never because you wanted me.

When the morning was waking over the war
He put on his clothes and stepped out and he died,
The locks yawned loose and a blast blew them wide,
He dropped where he loved on the burst pavement stone
And the funeral grains of the slaughtered floor.
Tell his street on its back he stopped a sun
And the craters of his eyes grew springshots and fire
When all the keys shot from the locks, and rang.
Dig no more for the chains of his grey-haired heart.
The heavenly ambulance drawn by a wound
Assembling waits for the *****'s ring on the cage.
O keep his bones away from the common cart,
The morning is flying on the wings of his age
And a hundred storks perch on the sun's right hand.

Hurt people hurt people
It's all that we seem to do.
Sometimes I wonder
Will we ever learn people?
Because there are way too many
Hurt people.

As strong as love is
We say we love people.
Things change and get
rough and tough
Then we abandon people.
Instead of working it out
to become better people.
We get lost in our
Emotions and thoughts
And become bitter people.

We seek out other people
To feel loved again
Hoping for a redo
Something like a sequel
only to realize
When it's over that we've
Become more scared
And tainted people.
And the cycle continues.
Until we can no longer
Trust people

I have no idea why
Hurt people hurt people
The very act is oh so feeble
To love each other equal?
I doubt we ever will
As long as hurt people
hurt people.

Even religious people
can hurt people
they find God's love
and think they can judge people
Like there isn't any evil
Going on inside that cathedral
Like they've forgotten what it's like
To be amongst the struggling people
Yeah, prayer changes and helps but
We are all the same people
sane people
Living in an insane world
Filled with unanswered questions.
Which is probably why
We can't be peaceful.

I will never know why
Hurt people hurt people
The very act is oh so feeble
To love each other equal?
I doubt we ever will
As long as hurt people
hurt people

So as I sit at home alone
And peer out of my peephole
I wonder what has caused
All this evil
That makes these hurt people
hurt people.

I know my heart is good
even if my mind is twisted
Which is why I've stood
in this awkward position
I feel like the moon
in the daytime sky
a sight to question why
it belongs to the night
