"I don’t wanna forget the present is a gift"

Well sometimes I do

When I remember our past

The times you spent in my bed

The times I spent in your arms

The months I spent missing you

I remember that the present is like getting socks for Christmas

It’s not exactly what you wanted but all you can do is smile and accept it

I write during stages of sadness and love
But during our time together
My pages have been blank ...

I've been rid of darkness
For only a month
And after today
I just might relapse

Don't trust a big **** and a smile
A lesson you should've learned a while ago
But you never pay attention in class
That venomous snake
Slithered her way in
And took you away
But what she doesn't know
Is you're more lethal
Than she'll ever be

Is this love?
Or is it comfort?
I extenguish flames
That you ignite again
Why do I allow
These fires to torch my heart?
Maybe I enjoy
The third degree burns

Love is your favorite game
Many are invited to play
I'm a frequent winner
But still I lose
To the one in second place

They say we control our own fate
They lied
So many are doomed to a life they didn't ask for
Strive for
Or deserve
My life is in the hands of human ignorance
And negligence
One mistake
And it's over
