What's Left

This is my first piece since I was released from prison July 22.

Picking up the pieces,I have done my time,You hurt me so bad,It's a pain of a different kind,I've been stripped of everything,Even of my pride,I didn't know that all along,God was by my side,While I was locked up in prison,You ran wild and free,And you broke your promise,you forgot to remember me,I forgive you for the pain you caused,And I love you still,I hope you never feel the pain,that you made me feel,You didn't come...

When I'm Gone

My battle with drugs has caused me to make bad choices and I will likely be doing prison time..

Daddy won't be around for a while, Can't catch you if you fall, I die every second we're apart, It's the hardest thing of all, I wont be gone forever, Those words are hard to say, But Daddy made some stupid choices, This is the price I have to pay, I'd give up forever, Just to see your face, I would trade my life right now, For just one more embrace, I'm so sorry for the pain I caused, Guess this is my fate, I'll miss you...

To my Baby Girl, And my Little Man, A fraction of you, Is more than I am, Tomorrow's your birthday, You'll both be fourteen, Our lives torn apart, With you caught in between, I'm sorry I can't be there, When you blow out the candles, But once again life, Is more than I can handle, Jordan my son, Your heart's solid gold, Never back down, You stand firm, be bold, Jayden my baby girl, The world better be ready, No need to ru...

Hear Me Now

I wanna say thank you to SS and my great, caring friends here that genuinely care bout me.

Self inflicted, complicated, Packed full of destruction, I'm a work in progress, My life's under construction, I have hurt so many, Countless heart's I've broken, Too ashamed to say the words, That simply went unspoken, A lifetime full of yesterday's, And ten million regrets, I simply can't remember, The thing's you can't forget, I will stand and fight, Until I'm dead and gone, Remembering what my daughter said, "Daddy ke...

I Can See Your Pain

Another Poem for a good girl that fell in love with a bad boy. I'm so sorry Billie.

I can see it in your eyes, Although you try to hide,  Put the weight upon my shoulders,  Don't hold it inside. When I gave in and you got high,  It's myself I'll forever blame, On a downward spiral since that day, I'm the wind that killed your flame. I'm never far away from you, I will always have your back, Lay your head here on my chest, Let it all fade to black. You're the one that saved my life, Fading away I overdose...

The colors have now faded, My life has turned to grey, I created my own prison, I pay the price every day, Day after day, I am staring at the ceiling, I remind myself to breathe, Maybe I'm just dreaming, I try to wash it away, I'm having trouble breathing, Everything goes black, Suddenly I'm screaming, Why did I survive, That overdose that December, I'll never forget, The things I can't remember, How am I this high, I've...

The dust begins to settle, Once again I see clear, History keeps repeating, And a waste of another year, Addiction needs a pacifier, Its grip is unrelenting, I'm sorry for what I have become, A monster that's repenting, So please pass me some give a damn, Mine was sold somewhere behind, I'll soon trade you some "I'm clean and sober", My life will be redefined, I just want to live my life, Break free from these chains, Fin...

I feel like I'm n mourning, Like all I do is grieve, I am slowly fading, It even hurts to breath, The pain is just too much, It's my price to pay, Why must I feel like this, Just make it go away, Everyone has lost faith in me, I'm sorry I let them down, It's like I'm under water, Just about to drown, I am torn to pieces, I am broken down, Motionless as I lay, I don't make a sound, One thing is for sure, I'm absolutely jad...

I have nothing left, I'm down here on my knee, My faith has all but vanished, I walk alone, I'm solo, just me, My abusive mom is pure evil, Growing up without any friends, I've learned a lot on my journey, Hell is real, not just a trend, My battle with addiction worse, The demons have returned, I can't do this alone, I admit, I have learned, I hope God will forgive me, And help me right my wrongs, I've hurt so many, Anoth...

It's an uphill fight to Heaven, In every path that's chosen, A cold and broken world we dwell, Hell has finally frozen. There's nothing ever wrong, But nothings ever right, I am a not a quitter, But I need a break tonight. I used to be a good man, Is there any good left in me, Look deep into my demons, Tell me what you see. Trying to stay clean, Is harder than I thought, It's the hardest fight, That I've ever fought. Just...

Chasing Shadows

Losing a love.

Chasing all these shadows, My world filled with gloom, I stare into the nothing,That fills this darkened room, I know that you're with me, I can feel you here, You help ease my pain, You take away my fear, I can almost feel your breath, As it flows across my skin, And when I close my eyes, You're holding me again, Chasing all these shadows,It helps to stop the bleeding,And sometimes stops my Hell,From constantly repeating...

Lighting Crashes

The sybolization of my life, and the constant fight to stay on the right path

Lightning crashes, thunder rolls,The Crow has taken flight,Lightning crashes once again,The Crow is now in sight.I've felt this way so many times,Death comes and surrounds,A fight for life I stand alone,My heartbeats slowing down.Lightning crashes to the ground,The thunder like a quake,The Crow is circling round me now,My soul he plans to take.From this dark life into the next,To the nether world I'll go,The lightning cra...

The Little Angel

This is about a precious little girl that became ill and passed away.

I was only six years old,By now I'd be eleven,But I got very sick,Now I live in Heaven.I watch over my sisters,And my little brother,I watch that sickness kill,One child after another.Since I have been gone,My Mom and Daddy weep.It's okay Dad, I'm in Heaven,At peace and eternal sleep,I'm a little Angel Daddy,You called me that every day.I sure do miss you guys,In every single way.

Legend Of The Fall

This is one of many apologetic pieces for a Fantastic Woman that simply wanted to be loved.

I`m still trying to figure out,How I went so wrong,I've apologized so many times,I'm ready for a different song,Nearly stripped of everything,I won't give up my pride,Life's not always filled with joy,It's one Hell of a ride,Life lived in the fast lane,Makes memory lane a blur,So please pass me some memories,So I know who we were,I am oh so sorry,For the things I can't remember,I'm sorry that I didn't die,When I overdosed...

The Prison Within

Another piece of my past..

Twisted thoughts,Twisted pleasures,Desperate times,Desperate measures,As the years go by,The memory remains,You and Me were both,Two runaway trains,Focus on my words,This is more then lyrical,We somehow survived,That's a freaking miracle,I overdosed and died three times,Girl have you forgotten,How could you forget,The Hell that I begotten,Even though the memories,Would make most people faint,It is what it is,And it ain't...
