I won't be home for Christmas

I won’t be home for Christmas,
just say a prayer for me,
that this thousand miles between us,
will not forever be.

No gleaming frosty winter,
no snowflakes in the air.
But there’s a chance of fireworks,
and rockets here or there.

I won’t...

Unwanted Valentines

Your heart is broken, so is mine;
we’re two unwanted valentines.
Let’s see how our lives combine,
and what our fractured hearts design.

I’m a piece of the puzzle that won’t fit in,
I’m an out-of-tune song no one will sing,
a corroded old...

ADHD (It sucks to be me)

If you ask what most vexes me,
I’d say it’s my ADHD.

The Murderer and the Harlot (Prison of Ice)

I am a scoundrel,
you are a wretch.

to this dark filthy trench.

I am a liar,
you are a slave.

with one foot in the grave.

I am a killer,
you are a whore.
But what makes my sin,
more...

I have many faces

I'm a man of many faces,
a different mask each day.
While I'm jovial the surface,
beneath I stay the same.

Sometimes I smile, sometimes I frown;
I'll still be bright and chic.
But deep below I'm always down;
I'm sullen, dull and bleak.

This hits close to home! I know people try to encourage us saying, "stay strong, you got this, we're here for you." But it's a sad fact that they can't see everything going on deep down inside... it's hard to feel what we feel.
