THE SUNRISE APPEARS OVER THE MAJESTIC MOUNTAINS
AS I GAZE INTO THE BLUEST COTTONBALL SKY, TEARS WELL UP IN MY EYES
ONLY GOD COULDVE MADE THIS EARTH WE LIVE ON
JUST GRATEFUL TO BE ABLE TO SEE ANOTHER SUNRISE.

ALL MY RAW EMOTIONS WELL UP WITHIN ME NOW
TEARS WILL FALL, BUT EVENTUALLY THEY WILL FADE
FOR I KNOW THAT LOVE IS EVERLASTING
ALL OF MY FOUNDATION BUILT, THE BEST OF HIS PLANS THAT HAVE EVER BEEN MADE.

CURIOUSITY HAS ALWAYS BEEN MY ENEMY
CAN'T SEEM TO SEE FOREST THROUGH THE TREES.
SOLDIERS MARCH TO THE BEAT THEY HAVE BEEN TAUGHT
ALL I'VE EVER REALLY WANTED WAS TRUE LOVE AND HARMONY.

THE SADNESS COMES FROM WITHIN AND SLOWLY FADES
HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO COPE WITH ALL THE AGONY AND PAIN
CLOUDS OVERHEAD, CIRLCING, SHOWING ME THE FUTURE
AM I DOOMED TO REPEAT MY MISTAKES OVER AND OVER AGAIN?

THEN, I SEE YOU, THROUGH THE FOG OF PURITY OF LIFE
AND I WONDER ABOUT WHAT YOU WILL DO, THINKING ABOUT YOU.
GAZING INTO YOUR SEASWEPT, LOVING AND BEAUTIFUL EYES.
THEN I KNOW THAT SOMEHOW, THIS LOVE WILL GET ME THROUGH.

I TRULY HATE PAST MEMORIES THAT MAKE ME CRY
IT ISN'T FAIR TO YOUR LOVING HEART, YOU KNOW THE TRUTH INSIDE
PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP ON ME, I LOVE YOU SO.
I WISH THAT I COULD ERASE MY PAIN AND GIVE UP ON MY PRIDE.

I'VE SO MUCH GUILT AND MISERY BUILT AROUND MY WALLS
WISHING I COULD TRULY LET IT ALL BE GONE AND GO AWAY
AS I SEE YOU CREATE DISTANCE FROM ME, A PART OF ME DIES
ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT I SAY.

DO YOU TRULY WANT THIS LOVE TO BE REAL AND LAST?
OR, ARE YOU REALLY AT THE END OF ANY PATIENCE YOU EVER HAD?
I'M NOT REALLY A CRIMINAL, BUT CHOOSE THE WRONG INSTEAD OF THE RIGHT.
I'M SICK AND TIRED OF FEELING GUILTY AND DON'T WANT TO MAKE YOU SAD.

ALL MY POEMS SEEM TO BE ABOUT YOU LATELY.
I WONDER WHAT THAT MEANS IN THE END....
i GUESS I'LL ALWAYS HAVE MY SENSITIVITY AND *******
I'M JUST WONDERING WHY THE PAIN AND WHEN WILL IT EVER END?


IN HEAVEN, THERE WILL BE ME AND YOU
I KNOW THIS TO BE PERFECTLY TRUE
FEEL ME AND I WILL FEEL YOU
KNOWING THIS LOVE IS REALLY TRUE.

I OVE YOU
OH, HO3 NICE IT IS JUST TO DREAM.. JUST TO  LEAVE YOUR REALITY FOR A BIT!

when i say i love you
i mean i adore you
your smile is like a long lost embrace
your voice beckons me from miles away

when i say i love you
i want you to know that you are the only man for me
you are everything i dream about
and every possible blessing ive ever asked for

i couldnt imagune my lufe without you
and i know that my life would be void without your presence
your lips are what i think about most of my day
and you filk my nights with passionate bliss

you are the man i think about marrying one day
even though i told myself i wouldnr do it again
you are a shooting star in the darkness of the galaxy
i thank god for you entering my life every day

Drug induced hysteria
with a friend that cares about you enough to help and not lecture....  I need you to get through this, just like last time.  I know, together, we can do this!!!!

Here I am in the middle of another ******* predicament.
Placed here by no other, than myself.
Only now, I am beginning to be able to see the sun through the clouds
Only because I have some clarity through the insanity.

Have you ever felt so overwhelmed that you wanted to bury your head in the sand?
Things had gotten so ******* out of hand?  You had no clue or plan?
Can’t you see how this all began?  You let things go until there was no hope and you could barely stand...

What is the solution?   Can you finally see?
This insanity is simply killing you and me.
Find a peaceful place to spend some time alone.
Without a slot machine, music, a phone..... even the absence of a man.

What did you find there?
Can you remember who you really were?  When did the pain come and what was the source?
I wish I could magically lift both of us up into sanity and reality in an instant.
But, unfortunately, we have to make that journey ourselves with God’s help, of course.  
Excuses, excuses, excuses... we sure are good at those, indeed.
Planning for our future is the thing we really need.
A friend that is true is hard to find, but when we are high, we don’t really mind.
Our remedy for our painful memories is only masking the real problems, seeking out the triggers and all the people that don’t care at all and the underworld kind.

The drug of choice is different for all.
The ultimate ending is that we will forever fall.
Falling, falling, until we find the bottom of our soul.
As it’s ****** up into oblivion and we can no longer stand tall.

Promises are so easy to make, just words, you know.
Action and reaction, when and if we need to make a decision when it mattered.
Making realistic judgement calls when a situation arises...
All this “stuff” is doing is causing our life and loved ones completely tattered.

So, I ask you, my true friend.... are you ready to surrender to the life we were meant to live?
Being kind, rather that manipulative, seeking out what we were meant to give?
I love you more than family, but unavoidably, will have to separate from you and truly, it would **** me to have to do that to me and you.
I’ve had all I can take of this ******* life, I’ve created by mostly lies.
I’m tired of being the target for Satan and his sinister, deceit... only ending up with only heartache, watching each other cry.
I know you miss your little ones.. So sweet and beautiful.
There’s time still to regain yourself and get back in their lives... they are still young.
Do me a favor and contemplate taking this plunge with me?
I promise I’ll be the most loyal friend you’ve ever had and this will only bring us closer.  
We both need this and I think you would agree.
Marisha, can you please try to get clean and get better with me?

I promise that I’ll be there tried and true, through tears and anger too.
Just can’t give up my life to an addiction so false and full of tears.
It seems to prey on all my problems and every fear.
I know that God put us in each others lives for a reason, that is so clear,

Please don’t think I am judging you in any way.
That’s not what I’m trying to say.
I love you so much and your friendship means the world to me, but I’m ready to surrender.. The only answer I have is to plead with you and pray, pray, pray.

If you need somewhere to live, you can stay here until you get back on your feet.... only clean.  So please don’t let Satan let you think of that excuse not to bring your beautiful heart and soul back to where it’s supposed to be.
I hope you read this poem and smile, thinking of you and me.
I love you always!

Touch me
Feel my skin underneath your fingers, hot breath
Melt into my soul, just for tonight
Amazing how we meld into one, almost close to death.

I'm clinging to you like a life raft
In this waterfall of lust
****** after ******, climbing to the next
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

Faithful to our love for eternity
Brought here by unforeseen supernatural force
Lips locked, lobes licked
Panting and wanting more, not knowing the fire source.

Feel me, want me
Never forget me
I will surrender to you
Beyond our human existence and for eternity.
SOMETIMES, THERE IS JUST LUST.  SOMETIMES, LOVE AND LUST COMBINE INTO SOMETHING SUPERNATURAL.

PATIENCE ISNT MY STRONG POINT
SELFISHNESS ABOLISHES MY KINDNESS
AS I STARE IN THE MIRROR
THE MORE I SEE, MY CHARACTER APPEARS LESS.

THE FOUNDATION OF MY RECOVERY
IS SUPPOSED TO BE BUILT ON EVEN LAND
MY FLAWED, IMPERFECTIONS SPEAK VOLUMES
IN A DROWNING POOL OF SELF-MADE QUICKSAND

DARLING, MY DEAR, FORSAKE ME NOT
AS I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THIS FLAG OF LIES
I PRAY TO GOD THAT HE STILL LIVES WITHIN ME
ALTHOUGH, DOUBT IS IMMINENT, FOR IT ISN'T GOD WHO I DESPISE.

SLUMBERING INTO A PEACEFUL ETERNAL SLEEP
I REMAIN UNCHANGED AND WEEP EVER MORE
MY FAITH IS STRONG AND I'M WILLING TO FIGHT
CAN'T HELP WONDER WHAT MY FUTURE HAS IN STORE.

MY ANXIETY HAS MET ITS MATCH
MY HEART WILL BEAT NO MORE
MY LIFE IS COMING TO AN END
PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I'M WAITING FOR

CANT SEEM TO GET THINGS RIGHT
OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN
I LOVE YOU AND WANT TO SEE YOU HAPPY
BUT HE THINGS I DO DONT SHOW ANYTHING, BUT PAIN

AT FIRST, I SEEMED ALRIGHT AND YOUR SMILE WAS BRIGHT
LITTLE BY LITTLE, THE APPEARANCE OF JOY SHOWED FALSE
YOU SAW RIGHT THROUGH ME AND IT SCARED YOU.  
I SAW EVERYTHING AS IT WAS HAPPENING, BUT THEN IT WAS TOO LATE.

DON'T YOU SEE I'M DAMAGED GOODS AND YOU CAN'T FIX ME
CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT I'LL JUST DESTROY YOU IN THE END..
FOR AFTER ALL, MISERY LOVES COMPANY.
EXCEPT, I'D RATHER NOT HAVE COMPANY THAT FEELS LIKE THIS.

ITS LIKE IN A MOVIE WHERE YOU SEE THE ACTRESS WALK TOWARD HER DEMISE
EVERYONE, BUT HER, KNOWS SHE IS GOING TO DIE
YET, SHE WALKS ON IN TOTAL IGNORANCE
IN TOTAL AND COMPLETE SURREAL STUPIDITY

INSANITY IS LIKE A TINY WORM
EATING AWAY FROM THE INSIDE OUT
YOU KNOW ITS THERE, BUT YOU CAN DO NOTHING TO PREVENT IT.
INSANITY IS MEETING ME AND THINKING YOU CAN CHANGE WHO I'VE BECOME.

SLOWLY, THE PICTURE FINALLY FOCUSES IN ON THE REALITY THAT IS...
BUT, NOW IT'S TOO LATE TO FIGHT.  
I HAVE TO RUN.  I HATE TO CAUSE PAIN.  BUT I HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE
SO, THERE IT IS.  YOU KNOW MY SECRET AND YOU PROBABLY WISHED YOU WOULD HAVE KNOWN BEFORE.

**** ALL THE ROTTEN, SICK AND TWISTED INDIVIDUALS THAT MADE ME THIS WAY
**** ALL THE SADNESS AND PAIN THAT POURS OUT OF MY SOUL LIKE A TSUNAMI
EATING AWAY MY FLESH, LEAVING EVERLASTING SCARS OF MISERY
**** ALL THE WHIRLWINDS AND DUST DEVILS THAT MAKE MY BRAIN UNABLE TO THINK CLEARLY

SO HERE I AM AND YOU ARE TOO
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DESERT, TOO EXHAUSTED TO CONTINUE MY JOURNEY
TRASH IS A NAME THAT COMES TO MIND WHEN I THINK OF MYSELF
LOVE IS ONLY SOMETHING YOU CAN FEEL WHEN YOU CAN LOVE YOURSELF

THAT ISN'T POSSIBLE FOR ME ANYMORE
TOO MANY MISTAKES HAVE CAUSED ME TO HURT MYSELF AND WANT TO HURT OTHERS
THAT ISN'T THE WAY IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE, IS IT?
FORGIVE ME, GOD, FOR I CONINUE TO SIN AGAIN AND AGAIN

MAYBE TO NUMB THE PAIN FROM BEING TOUCHED WHEN I DIDN'T WANT TO
MAYBE TO NUMB THE AGONY OF FAKE *** ******* THAT BEAT ME DAILY... AND THOUGHT IT WAS OKAY.
MAYBE JUST TO TRY TO SURVIVE IN THIS COLD, TWISTED WORLD THAT EVERYONE ELSE THINKS IS NORMAL.
MAYBE, I'LL NEVER GET ANY BETTER AND THIS IS THE BEST IT WILL EVER BE FOR ME/??

I SKIM THE **** FROM MY GLASS WITH A CERAMIC STRAINER
IT BARELY CATCHES THE TOXIC POISON THAT SHOULDN'T BE CONSUMED
I CHANGE THE CHANNEL A MILLION TIMES TO A MILLION DIFFERENT CHANNELS
BUT ALL I SEE IS RACISM, LIES AND THE LATEST GADGET A FAMILY HAS TO BE IN DEBT FOR.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO OUR RACE.... TO OUR PLANET?
IS THIS REALLY THE PLAN THAT GOD DEVISED FOR US?
CAN THERE REALLY BE A PLACE CALLED HEAVEN
AND WILL ALL THE PAINFUL MEMORIES BE ERASED WHEN AND IF WE CROSS OVER TO THE OTHER SIDE?

I GUESS WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS I'M SORRY FOR WHAT I'M ABOUT TO DO TO YOU
I'M SORRY THAT OUR PATHS HAVE CROSSED AND YOU HAVE TO ENDURE WHAT I HAVE COME TO KNOW
I HOPE THAT YOUR SCARS AREN'T NEARLY AS DEEP OR EXCRUCIATING AS MINE ARE
I DO LOVE YOU, AS MUCH AS I CAN POSSIBLY LOVE SOMEONE WITHOUT EVER REALLY HAVING SOMEONE TRULY LOVE ME.

When I don't think about the consequences
Of something I have said or done to another...
I try to think of why I felt anger or bitterness was the cause
Or if I felt like being ****** up that day.

I never like to see someone that I love in pain,
But here I go again and again.
It's like being stuck in a trainwreck
Where I can't look away and I can't get out.

Sooner or later, all the people I once called friends
Will separate and wither from my friendship tree
And the only one that I will have to blame for this tradgedy
Is the person with disdain for the human race that lives inside of me.

Like a rat in a cage eating the cheese that isn't filling
Like a Lion in the zoo, seeemingly content, but wishes he was back with his family.
Like the earth that is being destroyed by people just like us, without a second though.
I strive to be like the person that God created me to be.

So, now when I pass a stranger on the street that needs some help,
Or my friend that is constantly making the same mistake over and over..
I'll take out my hand and whisper in their ear-- always will I be here for you.
I'll take the power from the anger and bitterness, making it never again so true.
