My Relflection
life stops as moment
dont seem real
i slow down in
time only to find
where am at am lost
but yet still i see
the exit it draws a
distant the more i run
the more i fight
the more i hustle
i have lived my way
for many years now
and at the dawn
of the new year
maybe its time to
change as i stare
long and hard at
my reflection waiting
for the perfect moment to pick
up the broken pieces

My Troubled Mind
am lost in this world
of mine stuck in time
as everything slows down
with so much on my mind
as i search round and round
searching for answers
as too why what happen, happens
i was told to choose but remained
silent as my eyes filled up
but my chicks remain dry
visions cloud my mind
as rage replaces all emotion
i feel your pain so i burden my self
but u cant feel mine cause
i hold it all inside to my self

Tears Of The Dead
teas of the dead
fall softly on the flesh
of the living
as we bathe in your ambiance
set free you soul
and cast an over head
cloud, may rain fall and
whisper you name in
every dropp may your
love wash away tears
from your love one eyes.
for in time all wounds heal
but our hearts stay unmended
with little to rely on
give us faith for another
day as your tears cleans our
pain and brighten a new day

No Inspiration
silence widows and other voice
as i fall victim to writers block
its been two weeks no inspiration
when will it stop
as i sit in the night trying to write
but none makes sense
so i start over and over again
reading all these other poems for advice
but when i start to write
it looks like plagerisim so i start back
but at the end of the day nothings change
just an empty paper left behind
and a trash can filled

Hold On
You told me your life story
and i broke down inside
tears flooded my eyes but
held it back behind
i know i have had it hard
but you had it worst
i stayed strong and showed
no emotion cause its not gonna
change life's coarse
so i stay strong for you
and held you in my arms
told you keep your head up
you know what you want
but still fidget when i touch you
i cant blame you but hope one
day you trust me too

Hard To Hold On
hello does the moon shine the same still
because it seem am on this
road all alone
just trying to belong
to something great that you have
and i feel its all best left in the past
i turn my head and walk back
only to be back on track
its hurts when you're holding on
and your love is moving on
i show that am smiling
but in side am dying
can't come to grips
with life that we live
as i sit and watch love leave

Life's Cruelty
I swear night are just not the same
days are filled with pain
anguish and misery is my friend
as am lost in a world of cruelty
blood stain my eyes
pain and sorrow haunt my imagination
violence is my only comfort
justice is unfair
lives go with out a care
am tired of all these tears
days I've dream of ending it right here
with a pop pop bang and have the life
rush out of me
so what am waiting for
i just don't know

My Torment
laughters in my head but nothings funny
save me from these demons in my head
as they began to surround me
i begin to grace this pain
as my eye slip away
tell me father whats there in life for me
my beating heart gives way
my mind turns silent as no
thoughts seem to come through
my live mind got me three strike in
as days and moments seem to change
i begin to transform as this guy in the
mirror no longer resembles me

Blind Lies
Open your arms feel what i feel
stare in my eyes see what i see
cause it all comes to an end sooner or
later when the pain is just to great to bare
we hold on to the little things that
ensures us love knowing sooner or later
it can all come to an end
keeping all the pain held back
we put on these fake smile and head into
the world hoping no one will see us hurting
while deep inside were dying and
just lying to our selves

Lost In Faith
i cried late nights a
long time ago but no one
came to save me each night
i prayed but none of my
prayers was heard
i alone knew where i stood
i alone knew the capability
of this beast...i strech out
and reach for your hand
but fell short when no man
grabbed up on to me
i fell for decayeds back to back
and stood after all in my dreams
i found peace and joy
but now of this can follox me home
and for that my faith is few
