I do not trust a happy day My mind recalls past patterns And each time hope has come my way Peeking past life’s parted veil Singing songs of sweet tomorrows The weeks that come are always hell As are the all the years that follow
I do not trust a lover’s promise For they can be given so easily I have seen certain hearts shattered When loving to carefree and happily I know one cannot pledge eternity Anything can be broken even the best family
I do not trust a possessor’s passion Cause in pursuing owner’s pleasures I have found all things are only passing For the taking, to give, in the asking We all tire of the new toy Sweet things can rot away Adding one more item to your pile Won’t save you from your final fate
There is a far darker day ******* me The shadows tight on my trail Night will fall sooner than expected So even when I smile, I do not trust myself Moods will change, ebbing and flowing With the winds that keep my armor Flapping up and down so my scars are showing
The good is just a phase Then again I could say the same thing About the bad days coming Neither are permanent Only one thing is inevitable
