Poem for over the Years
Its hard to cope with all the pain
that ive kept bottled up inside
Its almost like ive lost all hope
and life would have been better if i hadnt cried
My emotions ran free, too much, too often
Nearly most of the time
I had to sit back and watch it hurt
when most of all i wish i was blind
The gut-wrenching noises of sqeals and gasps
were far worse than you could imagine
The sight of the horrifying sadistics at hand
was nothing you would want to fathom.
I tried to keep the pain inside
almost like it was top secret
and holding it in for so many years
has made me remember and regret it.
You can see that within my eyes
are nothing but painful memories
So i look towards the future and i beg for a life
that people love to read in the stories
Grow up with a family, a husband and kids
with a white picket fence with flowers all around
A neightborhood with lots of love
and no desire of hurt to be found
Picnics in your front yards
with neighbors gawking at the sight
Jealousy of the family with most love and laughter
would rekindle they happiness all night
Fireworks rode off to the sky
with the noises of colors so brilliant
the "oohs" and the "ahhs" of the lovely crowd
could match the tempos within it.
At the end of the show the curtain falls
and the applause is too much to take in
All the lies, the hurt, the pain, the blood
to tell you i wouldnt know where to begin.
I get a standing ovation for my leading rold
as the girl who was slaughtered with fear
the roses and bears are tossed up to my feet
and the nightmares are brought back with a tear.
the painful memories are all to deep
to spread with words of aunguish
and now that i talk with the ones i love
those memories now can vanquish
Defeated the warlord of the faithless and wrong
i know what its like to be grave
these stories untold and hardships unnumbered
shall be buried with me and my grave.
I know how you feel, Hun. Please, look forward and dont dwell on the past. Whats to come holds your future and thats something to look forward to!
