A poem/song written in harder times.
She said just go if you want to,
And leave this all behind.
It doesn’t make any sense..What for?
I said I just have to, And I don’t expect you, to wait for my return.
This pain is just to deep to reach, without hurting everyone else around.
So I will do what I do best and and run aground this mess
So my legs won’t fail me this time.
As I run for the finish line
That never gets closer
It always just seems to move
To the horizon, with the wind
I stop to breath in, And lay my head to rest.
So everyone passes me by, and grows up and moves on
But inside me I’m still trapped a boy
A boy beaten so verbally
and spit on by nearly all who passed me by
And now my eyes aren’t giving me any sight.
As I run for the finish line
That never gets closer
It always just seems to move
To the horizon with the wind
I stop to breath in, And lay my head to rest.
I am the angry and the desperate
I am the lost and unconscious
I am the boy you see a man now
A man that lives by day, the boy that dyes as night goes by
I tear that same hole, that has swallowed me
So many times before.
A burning chest as a reminder, the tortured lives I’ve led astray
A broken dream I plant, Inside your head
While you lay silent with the memories of a smile faded..
