Pain

I'm so lost without you here. My life feels absolutely meaningless. Color doesn't shine the way it used to. The birds don't sing as beautifully as before. Food has lost its flavor and smells have been muted. Days go by and all I think about is you. They say time heals all wounds but that isn't true. Everyday hurts more because it's another day without you. I'm not sure how I've made it this far and sometimes I wonder if I can keep going. I miss you. With all my heart I miss you.

Truth

Platinum and gold won't save your soul

A materialistic mind will turn your heart cold

Done

It strokes his ego to know that he has me in his left pocket

But I will no longer be your pretty face

I'm done being your part time lover

Bad Habits

I'm getting tired of this habit 

Can't take it gotta have it

The feeling is like magic but the ending oh so tragic 

Swerving in and out of traffic

Trying to find my way home 

Finally I get there and I feel all alone 

Frustration sets the tone for the words that I speak 

These feelings aren't unique 

Just another day of the week 

It's always been a struggle 

Everyday I hustle trying to build my mental muscle 

But through the constant tussle it's hard to think 

I feel my heart sink 

So I marry the paper to the ink 

Maybe I'll feel better later or maybe this pain is something much greater 

Lost in chaos I feel myself drowning 

Will I win this battle or will bad habits keep mounding

The Bible

Reading the Bible brings me true peace of mind. No matter what I go through there's always a scripture to help me cope. My father passed away a month and a half ago and its reassuring to know that I will see him again. Jesus was resurrected from death, and God will do the same for all his people that have fallen. ( 1 Thessalonians 4:13, 1 Corinthians 15:21,22) Jehovah God will also rid this earth of all death and sadness. (Revelations 21:3,4, 1 Corinthians 15:26) I look forward to the day all this comes true.

Regret

No more regret.

What's a life with regret? If you've made a mistake there's nothing you can do to reverse time. It happened, that's it...Instead of having regret, think of this as a lesson learned. It is through experience that we become wise. Just remember, you can't change the past but you can affect the future.

Challenge

...and face them.

Being on stage

Not trying

Losing the people I love

Roaches

Living a life that isn't mine

Anything wrapped tightly around my neck

18 wheelers on the highway

The Life that Lives on Top of My Head

My hair is an enormous black jungle of curls and mystery. Many have tried to journey through it but end up getting lost. With so much to explore, I also tend to loose my way. At times the vines growing from my head are overwhelming but I would never change a thing. I continue this adventure in hopes of making new discoveries.

Heartbreak is Hard to Forget

You had my heart right from the start

Made me believe that we would never be apart

But you bruised my soul then took control

Has playing me always been the goal?

I gave you everything I had and all the while you were with she

Everyone else saw it but how couldn't I see?

For you it was just a thrill

And what you did haunts me still
