Foolish

I heard a song and it reminds me of you Those memories are the remnants of a fool Yet who’s the fool You or me I walked away and you gave up  Here I am and there you are Looking at each other like fools It’s silly to ignore you That would be foolish Memories ever-changing How would you be remembered  A fool or hero The truth is ever present.  So the truth is wild but it’s always the truth  A young dumb sycophant stands here unashamed  Yet who’s the fool You or me We surrendered to nothingness  You’re no better or worse than I  But the universe still calls us fools  It’s silly to ignore you That would be foolish Memories ever-changing How would you be remembered  A fool or hero The truth is ever present

I’m Better

You led me to believe you loved me And I would be worse off without you The lies, the lies, the lies  You made me question my own self worth  And I felt so insignificant  I cried, I cried, I cried You have no place left in my life It’s time to say goodbye to you And the poison that is you  I’m better I’m better off I’m better off without I’m better off without you  Yet you shattered my self confidence  Left me afraid to be who I am But why, but why, but why Why did I let you toxify me Everything about me that was true  Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye You have no place left in my life It’s time to say goodbye to you And the poison that is you  It’s time to It’s time to say It’s time to say goodbye It’s time to say goodbye now  I’m better I’m better off I’m better off without I’m better off without you  You were good once but not anymore  No matter how you feel this ...

I’ll Never Be

This itch hurts To do things I never can It vibrates down to my bones I’ll always be alone but I have more to give  High hopes and aspirations  I gave it everything I could I hope it’s enough  I’ll never be royalty, President, A doctor or a father  I’ll be nothing more than your son I hope I can still make y’all proud You don’t know The struggle inside my mind Always dealing with this pain I’m more than this emptiness yet here we are now Dreaming of more simple things  But I’m aware of all this  Isn’t good enough I’ll never be royalty, President, A doctor or a father  I’ll be nothing more than your son I hope I can still make y’all proud Trying to be the perfect son is bullshit You either are or you aren’t Yet in your parents eyes you’re the best they could manage  High hopes and aspirations  I gave it everything I could I hope it’s enough  I’ll never be royalty, Pr...

Start to Rot

At times when I write I frustrate myself As in my mind  I’m writing the same things I would at 14 Have I not evolved? Or do we not evolve from hormonal rage Basic human emotions that never change Carnal, emotional, spiritual  Is that were we start to rot To dissolve to become complacent  Or we just get better at composing better words together.  When I’m with my thoughts I can hate myself  I’ll try to say How I feel but I can’t  It’s always the same Things I can’t explain.  Maybe things that are now shouldn’t be explained  Who I am and what I feel is what it is  Honest, at the point that, we are just here  Is that were we start to rot To dissolve to become complacent  At this point I die a little more and more every day  Dissolve into oblivion As flesh turns to dust I’m still trying to figure out How to put these words together  Now I’m questioning ...

Questions

I loved you once  If just for a moment in time That feeling could have been a lie I don’t know anymore  Were you the one We’ll never know cause you flaked out It’s okay I don’t resent you  But I still question things  How much space do you give someone until they drift away How much pressure do you put on someone until they break  How much love do you give someone until they can break your heart  How much power do you give someone until they can control.  Questions no one can answer  Until its too late Questions... Questions no one can answer Until it’s too late Questions  I’m better off Without you and your bullshit now We aren’t wasting each other’s time But I’d want to reclaim  All that I lost  My pride, soul, and financially  Things you stole I’ll never reclaim  But I still question why.  I wasted 8 years on your ass For no reason but yours Why did I...

A Proclamation of Feelings

Try as we might We will never be Whatever we want us to be What I want is: A man to be my equal Worthy of a husband Someone to build me up When I’m feeling down To make my world feel whole When it’s empty otherwise  What about you? Someone to make you feel safe Or just less lonely now A passing thought for you And gone with a flash  It only matters here With your feelings and nothing else  This isn’t a song much less a love song More a proclamation of feelings Mine are on point How about my assumptions of yours.  I’d beg for it A duet with you  But you’re too detached to act now  What I want is: Honestly above all else  And no more evasion  What’s wrong with that with you? Since you’re the damage That I’ve been dealing with  Buck up, face down your faults with me This isn’t a song much less a love song More a proclamation of feelings Mine are on point How about m...

Bless Your Heart

Say a prayer Say it twice  Make it count If you feel better  Wash it away All your sins It won’t work Despite what its worth  Bless your heart And your god Because you’re going to be Left alone and damaged  Yet if you knew me I’d warn you How at the end of time you’d feel solitude  Loneliness  Emptiness  Christian lies I accept them  You’re better than All of the lies  Take a chance  Give it all your worth.  Bless your heart And your god Because you’re going to be Left alone and damaged  Yet if you knew me I’d warn you How at the end of time you’d feel solitude  Bless... you’re going to be Better than me Despite your god And religion  I’m better off Despite you  And your divinity  And that okay.  Bless your heart And your god Because you’re going to be Left alone and damaged  Yet if you knew me I’d warn y...

Chime

I’m trying to block out the noise And the light pollution  To find out if you’re worth my time In a time where nothing but everything matters.  I’ve lost more important things Than a moment in time Could you be mine  Despite a rhyme Could we be fine In the daytime  Listen and hear the chime Of the bells of a union A crux of someone’s prime  Hear the bells of a union  I’m trying to block out the noise  Of these false fairytales  Is love worth believing in now In a time where nothing but everything matters.  So what could be more that this  Surely not just a kiss Could you be mine  Despite a rhyme Could we be fine In the daytime  Listen and hear the chime Of the bells of a union A crux of someone’s prime  Hear the bells of a union  Bing, ring, ding, dong  Hear the bells Bing, ring, ding, dong Hear the bells I’m more worthy of your ti...
