I'm fed up with your ten cent love.
I'm not fed up with trying.
Don't want more promises to lift me up.
I won't leave without rising.
when all you do is drag me down,
But I will hold you safe.
the earth has swallowed me whole and,
My arms were all your space.
you can't save me now,
Now I refuse to face it.
I'm fed up with your ten cent love,
Then it's overdue I change it.
Empty dinner tables, refill my cup,
I'll pour you shared-sip tea,
I can't wait at this bar alone another hour,
Then leave, and wait with me.
I can't watch my heart crumble anymore,
I hold it safe and patch it,
So pack up your bags and go with the wind,
I won't, but I will catch it.
to where ever wind should take you,
I think it's blowing north.
Don't make it bleed more than it has to,
My blood will run it's course.
Because I'm dying anyway, and my soul
is at the bottom,
I won't let you fade away, and my hands
will break the coffin

of a jar of pennies I'll use till sunset
to get me by
You can tell that we're not done yet,
By the blood red tears I cry.

Don't make me beg, don't throw another dime
in my direction, don't try to buy something that
you cannot afford
**I would never let our house of time,
Or familiy collapse.
The final word.

Your bright blue eyes that made me smile,
Are closed forever.
Your beautiful smile that brightened any room,
Shall only brighten heaven now.
Your time has come to dance with the angels,
But our friendship will never stop.
Shine your smile down upon us,
All your friends and familiy you left behind.
Be with us until we meet again,
In heavens bright sunshine.
I wrote this 4 years ago when I lost my friend and sister from Southwind Drum and Bugle Corps in a car accident.

Echoes Of A Mind Feb 2016
Cancer is a thief
tho' it doesn't steal property
instead it steals lives
and changes a familiy's life
'Cause it's not concerned
about who it murdered
Actually it doesn't care much at all
It just love to make people fall
A son, a father
A mother or a daughter
no one is safe
and it's a curse,
which is hard to break...

f**k my head, my thoughts.
or don't.
cause they already are.

Nothing feels in place,
places i've never been to
stay far away from reach.
Your hand not there to reach.
for me.
stop me.
from falling over edge.

Just people all around.
not really being here.
familiy, friends,
drugs, alcohol and breaking.
so is my head.
fix me.

Where is the place i'll meet you?
Take me away,
i beg.

Why do i fall already?
Reach for my hand,
just quick.
