Last Chance

One last chance with you,
I wonder what I would do.
Will I be the man you remember,
Have I changed for the better.
Am I truly a changed man,
Was this part of a greater plan.

Will I finally be enough;
I know things will be tough.
Do I now have what it takes,
To prevent your heartaches.
Can I show you true love,
Be someone you're proud of.

All these questions,
All my affections.
One thing I know is true,
I would do anything for you.
I'd fight to make it just,
And earn back your trust.
Wondering if I could make things better  make them right, if I had one last chance to fight.

depression is the slow killer.
slow and steady wins the race.

and it wasn't until I reached such a state of sadness, that I read that idiom with such logic.

Let it bleed

My heart broke and it bled over a few people,
but I couldn't stay to clean up the mess I'd made.
So, we bathed
in blood
in porcelain tubs
and laughed and lied,
and it was enough.

My heart broke and it bled over a few people,

So, we bathed
in blood
in porcelain tubs
and laughed and lied,
and for a while it was love.
Everyone is messy sometimes and it's kind of alright

my first crush committed suicide.
i remember the hurt at a young age
from chasing him around his living room
begging him for a kiss.
from my young age i knew i wanted him
in my life forever.
through his weaves and gagging
running around the furniture and up the stairs,
losing him sounded foreign then
and having lost him now, still feels the same.
our fathers drank and our mothers giggled
born three months apart
our future planned together
both saying "i do"
uniting us all together.
life flew on by
us both fighting with ourselves
and downing the bottles underneath the bed
loaded and silenced
family portraits painted in red
long life memories all put to rest.
only one made it out alive
but it's hard to breathe
out of us how was it me
and you in a little box
where a diamond ring should be.
my mind keeps wondering
when will i stop chasing you
then my heart replays
every time you turned a corner
you looked over your shoulder
and how you smiled at me.
i miss you

Nothing better to do
Than sit and look at you
So when we are not together
It won't be hard to remember

The small bridge of your nose

The way you lick your lips

And though I'm standing on my tip-toes
You still lower your eyes, under dark-lashed lids

I gaze and gaze
But still the memories fade
I've worn your hazy image out
Too many times to count
I can't get enough of him. I just hope he's thinking about me too.

You're not Cecilia but you're breaking my heart
Lady, you're hitting my heart badly like a dart
You're my world but now it's falling apart
This is the end, I don't know where to start

All my dreams for us are gone
All our memories, Is it just for fun?
Baby, come back, this is not our plan
Big day tomorrow, we're not done

I'm half dead and half alive
I don't know if I'm going to survive
All I want is you, forever, by my side
But you leave a note,

You said you don't want to be my bride. .
