  1. The Coward - (Continued in the next post)

    He left before he got his reward
    For working 15 minutes 9 months before
    He drove off not a care in his mind
    Not really knowing what he left behind

    A young runaway soon to be mom
    Blown to bits by this personal bomb
    Left for the thrill of an altered state
    Not wanting to care for what he helped create

    So young and lost in a foreign place
    The look of failure upon her face
    Cold and alone nowhere to turn
    The hardest lesson she had to learn

    Drugs are controlling and most of all
    Dont trust the scum from the carnival
    Sure she knew him for over 3 years
    That just turned into 3 years of tears

    What do you do when its almost time
    And the world has no sense or rhyme
    This is real and not a game
    Do you give it away or do you give it a name

    Hes not there to help you out
    He wont be there at all throughout
    Keep it or give up for adoption
    To you the third way is not an option

    Cant give it normal due to complication
    Must remove the child by operation
    A quick cut and pull and its all over
    You cradle the child against your shoulder

  2. The Coward - (Continued)

    The life you live is not for him

    So you sign the child over to them
    But one last look into his eyes
    You change your mind and start to cry

    I will not do what your father did
    So your life will not be up for bid
    So on the streets they were to roam
    For she had no place to call home

    For he left her with nothing on that day
    Only thing she could do was pray
    And lucky for her that He was listening
    For her life He watched with His eyes glistening

    A stranger came and took them in
    Not caring about her life of sin
    For he was a preacher and within he would look
    Not just reading the cover of her book

    He showed her the way that the good Book teached
    And she listened hungrily while he preached
    She found her way on got on her feet
    She found a home not on the street

    She raised that child with God in mind
    To love and forgive and to be kind
    She gave that child all that she could
    With no help from the one who should

    The boy grew up 10 fingers 10 toes
    2 eyes a mouth big cheeks and a nose
    He never knew the one that donated
    He never came back not one hello stated

    He didnt know his son was alive
    For the drugs told him to take a drive
    He missed out on the life of his son
    And all of the great things that he has done

    No one knows if he is alive or dead
    Maybe he has cleaned up or instead
    The drugs took him on one last trip
    And drove him to his lonesome crypt

    It doesnt matter either way
    The son has no feelings to this day
    The way he sees it is simply this
    What you do not have you can not miss

  3. Silence

    He said I love you
    She said nothing

    He wished she would speak to him
    She said nothing

    A tear ran down his cheek
    She said nothing

    */chorus/*

    So close yet so far away
    Growing harder everyday
    To handle the separation

    He doesn't want to move on
    Even though she's already gone
    She's the only one he loved

    */verse/*

    He cried the day she left
    She said nothing

    Left him with two kids
    She said nothing

    He asked why
    She said nothing

    */chorus/*

    So close yet so far away
    Growing harder everyday
    To handle the separation

    He doesn't want to move on
    Even though she's already gone
    She's the only one he loved

    */verse/*

    He said he missed her
    She said nothing

    He hit his knees
    She said nothing

    He laid the flowers on her stone
    She said nothing

    */chorus x 2/*

    So close yet so far away
    Growing harder everyday
    To handle the separation

    He doesn't want to move on
    Even though she's already gone
    She's the only one he loved

  4. Amazing job, keep up the good work!
  5. Its *sobs* beautiful!
  6. Okay

    Whats done is done
    There is no going back
    This time its for good
    The train has jumped track

    I walked away from all of this
    This empty life we shared
    Though I still think about
    The time we use to care

    But those days have set
    And new ones will dawn
    Hope your doing good
    Cuz' I have moved on

    I pulled myself together
    And I just wanted to say
    That even though its hard
    I am doing okay

    The memories we made
    Still dance fresh in my mind
    I continue to walk forward
    And leave it behind

    Too bad it had to end
    But tomorrow is another day
    For me to find another
    That will make me feel that way

    That day in the sun
    Your head on my chest
    Us staring at heaven
    Our love was the best

    I pulled myself together
    And I just wanted to say
    That even though its hard
    I think Im doing okay

    I dont think it will be easy
    To find another like you
    One that makes me happy
    And has a love so true

    My sleeping is erratic
    My days are turning grey
    The sun is slowly setting
    My smile has gone away

    I havent eaten in a while
    And my health is quickly fading
    I sit alone in the dark
    But I hear that you are dating

    I have fallen apart
    And I just wanted to say
    It was just way too hard
    No Im not okay
