Cousin. Brother. Best friend. All one person and now he’s dead.
I close my eyes to surrender to th… but instead get bombarded by image… Your smile flashes at me from the… Your laughter bubbles out, and it’s like I’ve gone back in ti…
In my eyes I see us, standing side by side, nothing can come between us, no matter how hard people try. In some eyes they see him,
Sister I love you, but only because I have to. That’s what momma told me, when I said I hate you. I hate the way you smile,
center Love is a simple thing, but we complicate it. We muddy it up with doubt and fear… Doubt in ourselves.
Tapping fingers on a keyboard, writing directly from my mind. Stuck in the numbness of detachmen… not noticing the hours that tick b… Tracks from tears made slowly,
center There once was a time when I was… Happy and bright. Not a care in the world. Just going through life,
Exhausted, Drained, I have nothing left. No more strength to fight against… I’m sinking.
I see your face. Lifeless and pale, resting on a pillow of white silk. I try to pretend you’re sleeping, but the tears in my eyes betray me…
This storm can’t take away my sorr… This rain can’t wash away my fears… I am scared of all tomorrows, I’m scared to wipe away my tears. I only need someone to listen,
Dear Man, I’m not going to pretend that I u… Pretend that everything is alright… It’s not. I’m hurt.
I say it with my time. I say it with a rhyme. I say it when I touch you and tell you that you’re mine. I say it with my kisses.
Joy, light, happy moments, big smiles, comforting arms,
You have two choices in life; feed the fire, or, let it die. Be it passion,
Flowers bloom. Seasons change. Petals fall. Nothing’s the same. It’s been a while
