You once told me
you couldn't stand to see me
in another women's arms.
Now you've pushed me into them.

You once said
you'd never lie
to save my feelings,
but here we are

You once assured me
you'd always love me
even when I don't.
Now you're gone.

You said you'd follow me anywhere,
and I cant believe I believed you.

Every word you ever said to me
was empty.
No substance.
No weight.

You used to talk about future,
fate.
Just words to you.
Might as well
be ashes
in your mouth.
You did this. I'm done feeling like there's somthing wrong with me. Done with the gaslighting. I hope youre happy, truly.

He saw his momma drunk
It hurt him and broke his heart
He prayed she'd change for the better
She smoked no regards for others
Set in her ways loved her flaw and all
All the frustration stayed away
Tears and painful to watch
Blaming himself over her bad habits

All the creatures down below
Say goodbye, and up I go

Iridescent waves reflect the sun
And greet me happily, as if for fun

Higher than the birds, up I fly
"Welcome to the ocean in the sky"

Where the horizons gently touch
The worlds of land and air collide

And everything in between
The ocean in the sky

I can't see through the fog
When I wake up in the morning
Because of the night before
And the pain, always haunting

The tears always fade away
But the stains they leave continue to stay

The more I cry
The more I find
That all of humanity
Leaves each other behind
