Bumptious
An olive branch, hurriedly raised, sparsely leaved, sans any grace sadly a belated thought she had, a wingless bird's attempt to soar, a withered symbol of an inept pair's egomaniacal overdrive, a betrayal in the name of a love lost it's soul prickly floats down, as he watches it swirls and turns on the turgid flow a storm water drain keeps no memories. Along with it a love, utterly vapid too goes down, breathing it's last.

One more wingless love
At some point tears turn into anger And I am sick and tired of crying and crying

Change of emotion
Our future would be nicer If he wasn't such a liar At least could play the role And be less politician And less a bad magician If he only had a soul. He’s drunk with his power Which is growing by the hour He’s really on a roll. He believes he is king And we don’t mean a thing Because he has no soul. He has voters he can step on Now we’ve given him a weapon It was obvious in the polls So many to **** Destroying them at will Like a creature with no soul. Now his approval is sagging His supporters are gagging As they try swallowing him whole. He’s sure none can top him And no one can stop him Because he has no soul. He won’t be satisfied ’Till all Democrats have died Or get by shoveling coal. We’d appeal to his heart If he had one at the start And if he only had a soul.

IF HE ONLY HAD A SOUL
Filled with self resentment Arrogantly blaming others for your concept Win one battle Like a fool you think you’ve won the war With false confidence you once again… Dip the chalice for just one sip One sip becomes two Two becomes six then six becomes never enough You regroup for a breath To prove you can evade it’s grasp So you challenge the storm alone For another round… Just like all the times before Your arrogance is the noose Before you can swallow that next breath Your neck is locked in it’s grip Tidal wave after tidal wave crashes over you Dragging you down and further down Allowing you come up for just enough air So you won’t completely drown Smashing those that love you Against the rocks of your lies By now you’re so consumed Their screams don’t make a sound The demon is now your guide A vicious voice of incoherent reason With no conscience or consideration Using your fear as fuel Possessing you body and soul With every breath Self-pity and anger are his tool Shattering the Myth of all that you were Until your death

Shattering The Myth
I am into you being into me. Fill yourself like the night Groping around in my dark. And you make the best compliments, Feeding my frenzy I take and take the positive Perspective where I am not in The limelight, I AM the limelight. Sure I could probably listen To the things you have to say And maybe on some level I care, But when the convo shifts towards Me that is when you are at your best, Oh how I need it.... Feed me with sweet nothings, Care for my lack of insecurities And feed my confidence in you For my My confidence in me. I know I am swelling with pride, I just cant see that the swollen Bruises on your heart When I am so focused on me And Im terrified Of what you might say.
