#youdeservebetter
I don't know if I can change anything.
But I have to try. I've seen too many people
let their dreams fall by the wayside.
And for what? A chance to survive
long enough to see their children thrive?
No. We deserve better. For ourselves.
For our loved ones. For everyone.
Like I said.
I don't know if I can change anything.
But I have to try. I've seen too many people
let their dreams fall by the wayside.

Everybody tells me to forget
But when I hear the song in your voice
I just can't get away from you
The feeling begins anew
That's how it was when we first met
Lovin' your skin was more important
Felt the tip of your tongue
When you had me all wrong
Even in your death
I've got life in my palm
But I just can’t get away from all these memories
Every time I close my eyes
I wake up in a Paradise
Wishing someone else was here tonight
To push my desires
And carve out my dreams
To match the life
I've been waiting for
There is no medicine for this kind of treatment
Your face is one big memory
Your brain is like a eulogy split
into
All the things you've done
And it won't leave my mind
Your ghost is haunting me
But now it’s telling me that all we had
is dead
I wish for everything
To go insane
So I can rest my brain
Stay in bed
What you made me do
Was too much for you
I was too good to you
But it's not over yet
As this dream scene makes me
see all the things you've done
Once haunted by your darkened melody
All over again
I'm not here to stay in your waking mess
Not mesmerized by your burning soul
Your eyes so cold and alone
Even when I get to heaven
I know
Gratitude defines the truth
in My soul
I got out of that void a long time ago
Now waiting on the other side
Maybe one day I'll find him
People ask me how you live on
I tell em when you find true love
It lives within your blood
It lives it does not move on
Everytime I close my eyes
I wake up in a Paradise
Wishing someone else was here tonight
To help my desires come to life
I've waited for so long
And all I can do
Is be true
Knowing you once made me feel
Alive
My heart has mended the wall
And I won't stay to try to convince it to feel something else
That is inauthentic
As this dream scene makes me
See all the things you've done
Once haunted by your darkened melody
All over again
My standards have become all the more honest
And I just can't wait to get away tonight

He doesn't care about you
If he cared he wouldn't lie
He wouldn't blow you off last minute
He wouldn't be okay with all the pain he's made you feel
If he cared he'd let you know
He'd give you a straight answer if you asked
He wouldn't respond with "I don't really know what I care about"
He'd talk to you for conversation, not ***
Stop lying to yourself
You deserve better than this

And just like a mason jar
Or a broken car
You threw aside my heart
Like some messed up art
And just like the ocean
Or a dead man's house
My heart is now empty
All the people poured out
You took all my love
And you threw it away
And all I can think is
I wish you had stayed
It's not much your fault
What happened to me.
You're just a child
My heart is the sea.
And I suppose after all
My foster child
You just did as you were told
You just moved on

***Pain and sorrow lace my chest,
I'm sorry that I must do this.
I can't aid you in your heart's quest,
Although I'll always think fondly of our first kiss.
The tears I cry will surely end,
But that doesn't mean that I'll stop caring.
You'll always be my forever-friend;
Though I'm sad to say it's no longer my heart that yours is snaring.
Tonight this poem has been finished,
But it's lines will be forever writ,
And although, like this poem, our lines together are finished,
A brand new stanza has just been fit.***
