Holidays

Everyone's happy, drinking and eating, 
Who would guess that inside I'm screaming,
I know what happens when daddy starts drinking,
The fighting and screaming ends in my beating,
I played and dressed as if all was okay,
Covering the bruises that never go away,
Although my hope and spirit never strayed,
I could only wish that his would've stayed,
Tears fall to the ground with a crash,
He's broken into his secret stash,
A night ending as usual; broken in my bed,
This time ending not in morning but death,
I loved you daddy, why can't you come play?

Suicide

How can i do this? My mind says yes; my heart says no, Our very first kiss, My heart wants to stay; my mind to go. Broken hearts cant take it, Young minds giving in, Anxious bodies a nervous fit, Souls so full of sin. A common bond, Our lives bound, By pain so fond, Bodies not found. Overdosing together, Our bodies still, Forever and ever, Under the ole mill. How'd we do this? Bodies falling ill, No one knows what it is, Resuscitation failed. Good news; were together, You with your bullet; me with my pill, Promise; forever and ever, All because we both fell ill

Baby

I'll cry my eyes out and dance in the rain, 
Just to make myself numb from the pain,
Caused by your cry, echoing so loud and broken,
Passing slowly, skin growing cold, leaving me alone,
Wishing nothing but to have you in my arms to hold,
Your young soul already torn, battered and sold,
How can I even begin to make up for my horrid sins,
All I wish to do is have your loving forgiveness,
i've waited so patiently for a day I could say,
'Good morning baby, have a nice day,'

I'M Sorry

I can see you leaning, needing to fall, How could you trust me, I hurt you after all, I've lied, and cheated, leaving you broken and beat, But your love for me, is something I couldn't see, I'll beg for your forgiveness, its something I need, Your smile's so breath taking, kisses so sweet, Silence amazed me, it said everything by saying nothing, The world was so unbelievable, through your innocent eyes, Its been nine months full of trouble and my own lies, Dropping to my knees, holding you in my arms for the very first time, All the doctors tried so hard to save you, so patient and kind, Your life was cut so short, my actions causing it to be so, A road I chose for you, I caused you to have to go, I'll spend each year from now to the end, Grieving the loss of you, my dear friend, My little bundle of joy, A bouncing baby boy.

Wars Cruelty

Death tole rising; the wars still going,
Beyond the devils frozen reach,
Sitting at home; so warm and soothing,
Tender young ones, can't you see?
The wars out there raging,
The blood of our fathers, sons, and brothers,
All while we sit here aging,
Us; they're sisters, wives, aunts and mothers.
They won't be coming home this time,
This time life's met its end,
The bell is singing its last chime,
And you my dear friend,
Are the one to have caused so much pain,
The devils son, creator of jealousy,
Master and lord of all things selfish and vain,
I bow to you, Your Majesty...

Kitty Prayers

Now I lay me down to eat, I pray the lord some toys for me, And If I die before I wake, Its okay, I still have eight, Now I lay me down to take a nap, I pray to wake still a cat, But if I die before eleven, Its okay, I still have seven Now I lay me down for fun and play, Oops! I broke the doll made of clay, So If I die by crucifix, Its okay, I still have six, Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the lord some fish to eat, If I die and lose my life, Its okay, I still have five, Now I lay me down for food, I pray the lord to hear a moo, And if I die within the hour, Its okay, I still have four, Now I lay me down for love, I pray the lord for a dinner of dove, So If I die, falling from a tree, Its okay, I still have three, Now I lay me down; stretch and yawn, I pray the lord for lots and lots of yarn, But if I die, with my head in a shoe, Its okay, I still have two Now i lay me down to rest, I pray the lord to do the rest, And if I die before you come, Its okay, I still have one, Now I lay me down for now, I pray the lord hears my final meow, 'Cause I died on my finally prowl, So its not okay, l don't has none. (This was written four years ago when I was ten with my great grandma and its really special to me so I thought I'd post it)

Merry Christmas

Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray tonight to rest in peace, A bloodied eve of Christmas, The house a totaled mess, Now you lie there, Tangled bloody hair, Rose peddles coated our bed, What was going on in your head? You promised me a day to remember, A day to stick with forever and ever, Now she lays with you on our floor, Did you really love her so much more, Were you truly that much of a man, That you had to go crush my heart in your hand, Jolly Old Saint Nicholas sent you his misses, So you could have your holly jolly Christmas, Over the river, to our comfy cabin, You said it was her seductive grin, As I walked down the stairs shaking in anger, 'I... I loved you! How could you! Traitor... Traitor!' My voice echoed through the house one last time, A gun shot followed, ending in a bloodied silent night.

Sick

I'm sick of the lies you tell,
The loves you faked,
You blow me away with the pain you cause,
Theres too much confusion,
Too much stress,
The pain you cause,
Makes me want to put a bullet in my head,
Turn my thoughts away,
Make them go from you,
From the pain,
To a greater place,
Where you'd never lied,
I'd never blown myself away,
Where you never faked love,
Where I'd never fallen in love with wrong one.
I lost a great friend,
An even better love,
Over something that never was,
You'll never have me again,
Drop to your knees and ball,
i wont care,
Or head your call,
I am my own person,
I need you no more..

Mari

She's been lied to, and abused, Sold out, and sexually used, hurt and in too much pain, her heads held up just the same, She smiles and laughs, inside she wants to crash, Her emotional balance astray, But her heads held up just the same, Her bodies broken, Her mind giving in, Optimism, beauty; live eat pray, Her heads held up just the same, I'm seeing a change, She's breaking her cage, She's smiling the usual way, And her heads held up the same, She's been hurt one too many times, Deciding people need to pay for they're crimes, She couldn't hope for better days, Because her heads held up the right way.

Singsong

I feel comforted by the throbbing in my hand, 
The way reality slips from my grasp, 
Blood dripping to my finger tips,
A moment content in pure bliss, 
I may not exsist to you, 
But baby those memories show through, 
The pain brings me screaming back, 
Cold reality with one true fact, 
The first is always deepest,
But with each life worsins, 
Because i chose to trust in you, 
The ammount of cuts grew and grew,
Just because we smile and wave, 
Doesnt mean are feelings arent grave.
