I can't even get out of bed
all these unnatural thoughts in my head
they're all dragging me down by a single thread
"oh no" they said, "you're over exaggerating"
then why does everything feel so aggravating?
I can't elaborate on how I feel
oh man, what's the big deal
I'm falling apart...
but I guess good things fall apart in order to create new starts
All my life I have been living on my own
Living well and yes having a few problems

I have always lived, knowing who God was
But never making him part of my life

As I have grown older
I have finally decided to start hanging out with him
He guides in a way that I have never expected

It is so cool, he is nothing like people portray him to be
He actually a really cool dude and we talk often

He differently knows how to have a good time
Some people want to meet my new friend, some don't

He tell's me Dave no big deal, I still got their back
He is such a good and loving man and ask nothing from me
Except to show real love and to help others

He has guided me in a way that you cannot believe
I still do a lot of the not so good things that I do
and he always forgives me

He is now my best friend and he has surrounded me with so many good people and has opened up many doors for me

Doors to success, wealth and gave me meaning
Untie the knot in my throat
So that I can try to speak
Let the air flow to my lungs
So that I can remember to breathe
If I look away in disgust
It’s from the tears that want to run
Don’t mind my smile
It’s the only wall I have
a response to a panel about domestic violence
don't you dare tell me I'm special and make me feel good in my own skin if you're just going to take that away from me when you leave
don't you dare tell me I'm beautiful then forget how to see
don't you dare tell me what I mean to you if you're going to act like it was all nothing
don't you dare tell me how you feel about me as if it was all a dream
don't you dare tell me that you don't want to lose me then go on and take everything
don't you dare tell me that you didn't feel a thing
-that I meant nothing to you
-that leaving me was as easy as it was to hold me
don't you dare......leave
how could you do this to me..
our deal was that we'd wait a minute
see what we could make of it
my hair was in my eyes
and your ears were shut tight
we listened to what we felt
not knowing what would be dealt
I slowly let myself go
continually saying that I was, you know, "going with the flow"
it started with the single excuse of wanting to ask questions
but we both knew your intentions
you let me go
pretending I'd have no woe
so then I opened up tightly
and let you in politely
but you refused
and so you took your things and left me singing the blues
