as I sit here
waiting
I must focus all my energy
on forcing the memories
back
out
of my head
I must
not
remember
I cannot remember the times we shared
the laughs
the tears
the hope
the dreams
the love
the hatred
I must
not
remember
the house we once had
the lawn
children
and friends
the life we led
I must
not
remember
I feel my energy draining
draining
draining
I feel the levee break
the memories
come flooding in
they fill my brain
flash before my eyes
I remember
the laughs tears hope and dreams
I remember
the love
the hatred
I remember
its all gone
gone
forever
I cannot forgive you
all I have
are these memories
I remember


I sit here
alone
the wound
still shows
glints in the sun
you sit there
looking
laughing
your work is done
you smile
and walk away
I sit there
bleeding
you are
nowhere to be found
as I bleed
all I can think about are the times we shared
all gone
forever
never to return
and it hurts so bad
and you will never know
the anguish I feel
you will never understand
never


when you do these things,
these terrible
hurtful things,
I am without words.
I cannot speak.
I cannot stop you.
I can only
watch...
observe
as you end lives
wreck homes
mutilate spirits.
"its for the greater good"
you say
What good?
no good
only
evil.
but do you think twice?
no.
you are always right
never at fault
you
are
perfect.
no one can improve on you.
you
are
perfect
you can do
no
wrong
you are flawless
amazing
and
absolutely
positively
perfect


Why do I do these painful things
Why do I hurt the ones around me
Poor little bird with broken wings
As long as Im near, you will never be free
Im angry at you for all that you have done
But nothing can compare to my own crimes
In the battle of strength, I have won
But sitting here thinking of rhymes
I cant help but remember how I tore us apart
When my rage came down on you like glass
Broken out of your broken heart
The time of anger was quick to pass
I fell to the ground, bloody hands, teary eyes
I saw you at my feet, crumpled in a pile
I remember now all of my sobs and cries
I had no idea I was full of such guile
I dont expect forgiveness from you
What I do expect is a second chance
And maybe we can start anew
I miss our old, perfect romance
But I fear that this has become the norm
My criminal actions, your terrified face
I fear that now that this awful storm
Has consumed me, it will consume our race
Infecting relationships and ruining lives
It spreads like wildfire in a dry plain
You cant look away though it tortures your eyes
To see the world overcome by pain
Why do I do these painful things
Why do I hurt the ones around me
Poor little bird with broken wings
As long as Im near, you will never be free
