Pain Relief
When will it go away?
The pain in my chest
Pain in my stomach
Pain.
It’s repetitive and never stops
It creeps up on me like bugs
Stings like a wasp
Bites like a mosquito
And leaves, taking a small part of me
Some say it’s a part of life
Maybe I don’t want that
If this is life
Maybe I don’t want any p...

I Used To Have
I used to have a reason
to get up and fight for truth.
I used to have light in my eyes
to know I’d be with you.
I used to have a lot of things
but now all that I do -
is sit here alone, remembering home,
wishing I’d been true.
I used to have a family.
I used to have a home.
I used to have friends,

Coming To Grips
Sitting here thinking, another week gone.
Another small increment moved from the fire.

Seeds won’t grow in a barren land.
Something stalks me, something’s there.
Something haunts my every prayer.
Aggravation, life slips by.
Desperation, sleepless nights.

The fault, it clearly lies with me
the bird was what the bird should be.
Now I live knowing I was wrong…
to want to silence any song.
