It's always there
Always waiting
Always creeping
Up on you
Not letting you rest peacefully
In fear that tomorrow
Will be just the same as yesterday was
And the day before that
And the day before that
What happens when you get
So sick and so tired?
This weight that is carried
Wish could get buried
Six feet below
No heaven, no hell
Just down in the ground
Free from the sound
Of the screams and the cries
Of the dying inside
Push and pull you down under
Louder than thunder
It tells you to smile and to sit
Just see what you get
Another day with this on your back
Always fading to black
Not letting the light
Shine through to your sight
Always just black
It covers you eyes
Takes away the vision
Leaving you with aimless decision
And tear stained cheeks
Forgetting for weeks
That there's a life that you have
Making you forget who you are
Trying to hide the scars
When finally you see
The blackness is gone
Oh but not for long
Left you with destruction
Pick up the pieces and wait
For it to happen again
You know that it will
Maybe this time it will ****.

The gods take pity
For the world is burning
By our own causation
The fabric of our means
Disintegrating at our feet
Flames growing down in the depths
Consuming all and leaving none
Slowly but quickly
Awareness met with ignorance
As death of day brings life
Birth of the demons
Beckoning and calling
More, more, and more
Feeding the system
And feeding off the fear
Not knowing when or where
The fires source
No warmth, just ice
Leave a wasteland behind
In its path
Devoid of life
The gods
They cry
Because we know why.

These tears won't stop coming
It's been days and days
I'm drowning
My carpet is wet
The bed is soaked
My eyes are red
Not much can be said
For this sad state I'm in
And yes that's a pun
For I am very sad
Very sad, indeed.

I'm stranded alone
In this strange place I called home
No longer familiar
As still as a stone
But, I need to roam
To the place I feel at home
With you and the others
Not here by myself.

Waking up the morning after
Not a Sunday
But, a Wednesday
Waking up the morning after
My baby leaves
Waking up with a hangover
From love
Take away the headaches
No getting sick
Add the tears
And add the sadness, dear
There's no pill to swallow
So, just sit and wallow
And try to get through
Cling to the memories
That have been shared over time
The wonderful memories
That bring tears to your eyes
Trying to function is less than easy
Trying to keep going knowing you're so far
It's less than easy

Walking through life
Knowing
The straight way
Ahead
Like a blade
Straight and sharp
Cutting down the path
Bumps may come
But overcame
Every bump I passed
Continue
The path I see
The end is clear
Until a foggy haze appeared
Now wandering I find
Myself
I don't know where to go
I walk and I walk
Going everywhere
And Seeing nothing
This foggy haze
It stays
Searching and searching
For a break
Then I get it
I'm staring down a cliff.

This familiar feeling
Upon the leave of my love
The tears and sadness well
So many tears have already fell
On your t-shirt staining the white
I still cry with you holding me tight
Then when I look in your eyes
I can't help but crack a smile
because I know
And you know

Out at your car
Waiting for you to leave
Stalling with words
Nearly an hour goes passed
A series of hugs and of kisses
The first step is to get in your car
How I wish I were coming with you
Tears well up inside
Then I look at you
I can't help but to crack a smile
Because I know
And you know
You'll be coming again.

The days that you are near
I can't think of anything better
Laying in my bed
Two lovers, best friends we are
Dreaming of the day
When you never have to leave
Enjoying, living for the moment
Staring into your eyes
You say the only words needed to be said
"I love you"
Whispered in my ear
"I love you, too"
Whispered back to you
We can't help but smile
Those ***** smiles of those in love
Because we are
Hopelessly, madly in love
And we'd have it no other way
Touches, kisses, words, and looks
With every one, my breath you took
Heart to heart and mind to mind
If only it could be all the time
But, we love and we care
And I would have it no other way.
