Oh Jesus loves you?
Bet he can't make you scream

You left my lips
Swollen and uneven
With your lies and empty
Moans that keeps me awake at night

As though all I need
Is a sheet of blinds
That can keep me
On my cigarette diet

What does one say?
Sometimes I get such a deep pain in my stomach
For missing my old life.

I was haunted, trapped
I seem to always allow myself to be caught in a cage
Man made.

I don't know how to write what I saw in my mind
To you
I guess I thought it would be easier to be kind
But all I want to do
Is forget you.

In trying, there is every chance you might fail.
In not, there is no chance you will ever prevail.

For if you do not take a chance or at least try
There is every chance life will just pass you by.

I love how you fit right in with all the poets here.

You might say you aren't an artist, but you are so wrong.

I have no idea who I'm talking to
When I look in the mirror
to make peace with the words I used
to make things better.
Because although you were smiling
I was screaming for answers
inside my head.
Guilt was my only feeling
When telling you
it was okay
when I was so unsure
of what was to come
And truth be told
I am still so unsure
Of this path we walk
Being someone who so prefers
to be prepared
I am terrified

I try to hold my tears as long as I can,
So that I can drown out the world in front of me.

My heart is melting
like the sun disolves
Slowly into the sea
at the end
of a long summer day
