Memories That Haunt Me

He sits on his death bed and stares at the clock,
tick tock he says, tick tock. 

  His daughter walks in and she is a mess, 
filled with the fear that her father is dead. 
her eyes fill with joy until she hears his last words,
and outside the window the birds start to chirp.
Her father lay limp, white on the bed, 
as his daughter wishes that she also was dead.

  So she starts to dream of the things she could do,
so she could end up like her father too.

Skid Row

Okk

17 Nov, 2016 12:13 AM
I used to have this dream years ago let me tell you though
it started with a smile and a wave on the patio,
then a flicker in the sky it showed a shadow.
but wait mum where'd you go I swear I just seen you though.
The sky would start to fall and I would scream but you were a no show.
Then my skin would slowly freeze as the world around me began to go.
Its okay I get it now seeing this tornado,
I'm nothing to you mum I guess this is like a puppet show.
Pick me up tear me down maybe I'm Dynamo,
ill fix myself up while you're drunk in the skid row,
Alone is how I'm feeling when I wake up and realise that I despise
the look in my eyes figuring out this nightmare is never gonna demise

Dear brother

Dear brother, 
  You've fallen down way to deep, 
  you can't find a way out, your stuck in a cell 
  that leads you to hell.
  Your on this dark road 
  with no way out and your crying out for help, 
  but no one can hear your cries.
  You said you needed to deal with this on your own, 
  but it departed you from your own.

  Dear brother, 
  I tried to show much love,

Sickening feelings

Robyn Watson

01 Jul, 2014 12:16 PM
Unbearable pain that's deep down inside, 
You feel it, I feel it, it's pain I can't hide.
I'll never give up, I won't go away.
You kids are my life, my hearts where you stay.
It's shattered and broken from me missing you, 
It's hurting so bad, must be hurting you too.

I can't make things better, I can't get you back.
Dad knows you are hurting but he's selfish and slack.
That sickening feeling that's deep in our hearts,
Is all there because, we're kept far apart.

The  sour bitter taste flows through my mouth,
I don't see how people drink this;
The bubbles drain down my innocent throat,
One down.

The twist, the crack, the mini explosion 
out of the long neck.
Number two. 
The smell of it flutters the whole house

Everyone was doing it, why not me? 
Or, at least that is what

Dear Dad,

Haley Goodwin

Dear Dad,
Why did you leave me?
I need you so bad.
Things are getting complicated.
I don’t know where to turn.
The darkness is closing in. 
Please don’t let it get me daddy.

Where are you now?
My tears are falling.
I feel so dead inside.
My only release causes harm.

The One Person

anonymous

The one person that never lets you down,
The one person that you see everyday,
The one person who encourages your odd dreams,
The one person who you look up too,

The one person you want to be like,
The one person you knew since you where born,
The one person who never intends to hurt you,
The one person who loves you no matter what,

The one person that has only one special place on your heart,
And without that one person you can't call your house a home,

I'm sorry

Sara Crumbley

13 Apr, 2012 01:17 AM
If I could go back,
Back through time and space.
I would take it all back,
Every harsh word that I said.

I'm sorry I caused you,
So much hurt and pain.
But your words cut deeper,
Than any double edged sword.

I've been given time to ponder,
Over all the things I've often wondered.

I saw my son today.
Golden curls; baby blues, bright, shining.
Soggy cookie squeezed through chubby fingers.
I laughed a happy laugh.
He laughed back, a gurgly little baby laugh.

I saw my son today.
Short cut, sun-streaked hair; focused blues.
Soccer ball held tight in strong tanned hands.
