Otero Dec 2014
Can you taste these words?
They are like paint
Over the soul
They’re both bright and warm
Or they’re both dark and cold
They can save a life
Or condemn a soul
They could inspire a man
Or just destroy his hopes
Oh, can you taste these words?
They seem so sweet
But they could just be
Bitter
Bitter like me.

Otero Dec 2014
Here I bemoan the emptiness in my soul
The absence of happiness, the endless cold
I have searched everywhere under the unforgiving sun
And I have found nothing but a broken heart
Yet one spark, took over short after
It lit my way it healed the madness
My mother and sister’s love
The one true thing that I can feel
More than pain and sadness, for their love knows no end.
And I know that it is real.

Cant say what I feel
so I try to write
Otero Dec 2014
Can you tell?
That my heart has grown cold
That my scars are now more
And the pain cannot be muffled
That I have drowned my self in pain pills
And yet pain is all I feel
Can you tell?
I’m not the person you once knew
Called out to God while I was dying
Yet God did not answered
I begged for death
While my chest was still open
Yet its forgiving embrace never came
Can you tell?
That all these things torture me, every day
