The Pen is Mightier than the Sword

I feel so tired I could cry

From all the people who told me lies

I feel so used up I could die

From all the pain and from all those times

Why do I trust in all the wrong places?

Why do I loose all of lifes races?

Why do I choose all the wrong faces?

Why do I return to all the wrong places?

What will it take for me to learn?

How can I tune into my inner voice blessing?

How much more of this before it's my turn?

This sorrow never ends, just keeps going

Waiting here for life to get easier

But only pain fills my life with every tear

And only trouble enters each new year

And I am all alone I suddenly fear

Only left with wonder, "what brought me here?"

Revolving doors turning like the blood flowing thru my viens

Raw nerves send soft noises sounding off like syrens in my head

All the pain in my joints and muscle come together in a tight knot

Sinched carefully around my neck and creaping up to my eyes

The light of day burns my senses

I would give anything to cloak myself in black in this moment

I would dissapear, like love I once grasped

I thought my hold was tight and destination in sight

But with the wind my heart was sent into the atmosphere

Shattered pieces never to be gathered again

Falling down to my knees my kidneys hurt like a rod thru my center

All the nurishment lost with my absent minded aproach to life

Running so far and fast I forgot where I was going

If I am not running away then I don't know where Im headed

I stare in silence at the crowded masses flowing by

All the sounds mesh into one muffled blur

Will I spend my whole life slightly rocking,

In the middle of a street, somewhere?

Nowhere.

oooohhhhhh how did i miss these the first time around?

 

You've a definite knack for taking the thoughts from my head and putting them in words. with the first one, if i started quoting out the lines that especially appealed, i'd have most of it quoted here.

 

the second one is close to that, as well, but the "oh my" factor falls in here:

Running so far and fast I forgot where I was going

If I am not running away then I don't know where Im headed

**huge hugs**
