Tell me


Tell me about love.
Tell me about life.
Tell me about giving up,
Or tell me how you survived.
Tell me what you wish,
Or tell me absolutely nothing.
Tell me what you are willing to share.
I make no promise to tell you anything.


Tell me what you like
And all the things you dislike or otherwise.
Tell me about the light,
Or if the darkness has covered your mind,
Then tell me or anybody,
How you truly feel inside.


Tell me something if you want.
I tell you all you need to know,
But I am not your font.
Bubbles appear and then they pop!
Into waterfalls land every drop.

Story teller


This life is going too fast.
Holding hands, hauling ***.
One day we were kissing,
Now in all the pictures with holes,
I am missing.


You cut me out of your life through spite,
Because I couldn’t love you like,
You needed to be loved;
By another man with a job.
I couldn’t be the one that you could plan a future with.
One of us wanted to raise kids.
One of us was left behind.
One of us was left to cry.


If only we could have cried together;
Tried even harder…
Maybe we wouldn’t have become fertilizer.
We would never have had to sever the bond we had.
Now I am loves survivor.


I carry on in human form,
Wandering this world alone,
Since the day that I was born.
Left again on church steps.
Begging for milk and a place to rest;
But the time has come where I am no longer undone.
I think that I am strong enough,
To stand.
Maybe at last I can become a man.


So forward I stride into the rest of my life.
I walk along the beaten path.
The smile on my face shows you my past,
Has been laid down to rest, because that is that.
A forgotten memory of the former me.
You see the actual soul I call myself is frozen in another Hell,
That feels like home; it’s somewhere to be.


On concrete roads I am sure of nothing.
That I know.
So forward I go, alone, no place to call my home.


I need a heart to love always,
But I am in pieces, because love only walks away
And at the end of the day I remain the same.
A ghost hanging onto a former glory.
These things they all change.
Time to write a better story.
