Come Back

No, don’t leave me

I thought forever we would be

You said it was me you loved

But it’s always me you shoved

I love you so much

Especially your gentle touch

Don’t leave me, I cry

I’ll fix anything, I’ll try

What did I do

To lose you

Please come back

Without you, there is so much I lack

I want you back here

Just to know your love is near

I want you to hold

But you found someone new I’m told

Why did you leave

Tied in your love was so much decieve

I want you back for myself

Without your love I’m an empty shelf

How could you do this

It’s you I miss

Please return to me

I love you so much can’t you see?

Last Night

Twisting & turning

The candle is burning

There’s a rapture at the gate

Could this be my fate

I open the gate to see what awaits on the other side

At the vision I could have cried

It was an angel surrounded in beauty

She said she was here to fulfill my every needed duty

Her eyes the color of saphire

With the most beautiful gothic attire

With a golden shine around her

That would shine forever after

Her fingers long, thin, and frail

Her dress followed her in a trail

And then she began to speak

This made my heart go weak

She told me a story so sad

It made me feel so bad

She explained to me her last date

She never guessed it would so quickly bring her fate

She had gone to a party with her friend

And he was very drunk by its end

Reluctantly she rode in his car

But they never made it far

For he hit a car that he didn’t see

Her dying thought was why did this happen to me

As she lay on the pavement dying

He sat beside her crying

She wishes to change it when at it she does glance

But its too late, she’ll never have that chance

The Game Of Life

We keep on trying

But all we are doing is dying

We keep living life

But it doesn’t seem worth the strife

We must keep our heads high

And hope not to slip and die

We struggle on

Just trying to keep live until dawn

We breath deep

While the hill of life becomes too steep

The pain, it hurts us deep

We are afraid at night to sleep

The nightmares, they fill our head

Sometimes we’d rather be dead

We all at one point feel the pain

More than enough to wish to be slain

There is a pressure to drain

Our life and ruin our brain

We will crawl in a hole and cry

Wishing if only we could die

Others will look and laugh

And wound us with their sharp staff

They don’t feel our misery

So for us they have no sympathy

They think it is our fault

That we are locked in this vault

On no one can we depend

To hold us until the end

And this is the game of life

In which we all eventually lose the strife.

Emptiness

As I sit here,

I stared into the dark.

Alone,

Where are you?

It’s like an empty void,

One yet to be filled.

Tears start to roll down my face,

Why does it have to be like this?

The emptiness grows deeper and deeper,

And it becomes wider and wider.

With you I was whole,

But you left and now my heart is broke.

The tears roll faster,

My heart sinks lower.

Still I stare in the dark,

I wonder how much longer I can take it.

Where did you go,

When will you come back?

I still remain here,

Looking into the dark.

. . .Wicked Meadows. . .

walk through the dark trees

and feel the bone chilling breeze

where you’re headed you’re not sure

but in the air you smell murder

be careful where you walk

be quiet when you talk

or the demons you will wake

and you they will surely take

as you look around

and fall to the ground

you realize you’re lost

and you want to leave, no matter the cost

you start to cry

wishing and hoping you won’t die

if only you could leave

this forest of decieve

but you are trapped in here

and the end is nowhere near

you can run if you want

but the evil spirits still haunt

you’re lost in this game

and that’s a terrible shame

but you believed the lies you were told

and now you life this forest does hold

Alone

More alone than ever

I feel like I’ve been here forever

I need someone to reach out to

But sitting by myself is all I do

I need someone to talk with

To me someone around is an old tyme myth

I wish there was someone there for me

They just don’t know how happy I would be

All I need is a companion

Something more than a dandelion

I need someone to be there

Someone who will actually care

For You

All that is left is our sweet memory

And the reminders of you in everything I see

And the missing of your touch

Oh how I miss you so much

For you I shed these tears

For you I give these sad leers

I sit here and I wonder

What made you go yonder

You left me here by myself

Like in an abandoned house there sits an empty shelf

I’m left here by a heart gone cold

Without a loving soul to hold

As I sit here and cry

I think of how much easier it would be to die

To get myself away from this

Hurt caused by the love I miss

But I know that won’t be good

Even in this depressed mood

For when I go away

My love for you still won’t go astray

My love will always remain

Whether it be sun, snow, or rain

Nothing can ruin it for you

Even after this horrible thing you had to do

You told me that this way would be better

And that you’d explain in you letter

That letter I never received

And now I’m feeling the pain to be relieved

But it just won’t go

All this pain and sorrow I so well know

I wish that it would

I’d help it if I could

The suffering for you is unbearable

And my heart is no longer tearable

For it has met its last and unfixable shatter

But wishes to be fixed by the latter

I know this won’t be possible

I had no idea so much pain could be causeable

But it has been done

And I still love you Hun

I suppose this is my goodbye

As I sit before you with this last outcry

That I love you and always will

No matter the detection of pain in this last heart screaming shrill
