#grievance
All of them And none of them But so alive in my mind What terms are there to come For a heart in denial Despite the distance of time

Distance of Time
Be still thy beating heart For the damage will fade It may be deafening now But time heals all wounds The darkness you feel will surely brighten The anger that burns will surely dim Be gentle thy sorrowed chest For the pain is but nigh Peace will find you swiftly If only you rest a while Though now it feels Like the heart was ripped Straight out of your swollen chest Rest assured it was only a flicker A flicker of love that was doused With the waters of rejection The pain will slowly dissipate If only you let it heal Be swift thy healing words For soon it might be too late For if this damaged heart remain Surely the beating will stop

Agony
Don’t cry Do not water the flowers I will just hit the sack and I will never go back Thy smile shall be ever left unseen But kept with me, Are the memories that we have been Bless me with peace as I rest For I never felt it in my quest Sorry that this has to end Close the door and let me ascend My friend, Let the flowers bend Don’t cry Do not rage a storm For I’ll be taking steps alone Go yell for the sun’s perfect tone I will leave Please don’t grieve I’ll bring with me the scars you gave Please just lend me one last wave Burn all of my past Leave them all with a blast Please make my path easier Just allow the storm to falter Don’t cry Do not flood the whole world You may now remove your mask And throw your lies in the dusk I know you wanted this to happen I know you wanted me to go Do not ever regret As you must never forget You knew I couldn’t swim Part the flood into a stream And for the very last time Save those droplets of dime Don’t cry, don’t cry.

Don't Cry
To not cry is a blessing and a curse A blessing 'cause it hides your pain A blessing' cause it shields your grief But most of all, it is a curse One that boxes up your emotions One that leaves you defenseless One that denies you allayment to grieve One that let's you seem so strong when you're weak One that leaves devastatingly flustered. The kind of mixed feelings you get from the frozen tears that never falls is one that leaves you overshadowed by darkness.

death.
It has been fifteen years Since that dark and gloomy day We as a nation were attacked Nothing but total turmoil in every way Thousands sadly lost their lives There were painful hearts Some people woke up to mass confusion Before their day was about to start This is a moment that we will not forget We will continue on in our lives We cannot hide in the shadows Just move forward towards the light Time will continue to march on In spite of darkness We must lift ourselves upward And make our own sunshine and happiness

It Has Been Fifteen Years (Tribute To September 11th 2001)
Grieve, my child, grieve Let the sea of bitterness Flow from your eyes And wet your cheeks Let it turn into droplets of frustrations Grieve my child, grieve Embrace the pain Feel the pang that stings Like the ***** of a needle Stabbing you a thousand times Grieve, my child, grieve Until there's nothing left To grieve Until there's no pain left To feel

Grieve
When I first learned how to read When I got wounds and bruises When other students bullied me When my friends turned their backs on me When I fell in love and got my first broken heart My birthdays, recognitions, graduations, and family days these are some of the times When I needed a hug, a pat in the back, my Superman, a Doctor, A best friend Someone to say "Congratulations! and i am proud of you." Someone who is my father But you were not even there. It seems like you don't care.
