Back To The Future...



Do Over…
"Now where is that flux capacitor...”

I think I'll use a lifeline
Maybe I'll phone a friend
There are things I need to undo
Somebody please give me a mulligan

Should've use that free spin
Or maybe a bonus stack
Should've cashed in my chips sooner
Before betting it all on black

I think I picked the wrong horse
I was one number off the mark
Should've trusted my gut instincts
Instead of following my heart

Should have went left
Instead of going straight
Shouldn't have took that last gamble
And now i realize it's too late

Someone please give me a redo
There are some things I want to change
Never pictured life would be like this
It’s driving me insane…

No matter how much I hope and pray
I won't get that chance again
Guess I can stop expecting
Doc Brown to pull up in that DeLorean

Untitled #2




UNTITLED#2


I can’t hold them in’
They’re bound to escape
These feelings that I have
Their power is too great

This time I knew
You would not break my heart
But strange situations arose
That drove us further and further apart

When I wanted to be with you
People seemed to interfere
That it probably why
You are not with me here

It wasn’t our fault
There were things we could not control
Like the other people who were involved
And our love they oppose

Maybe you are still upset
And probably mad
But you may never understand how it hurts
To have lost the chances I’ve had

So I play it off now
But I can only disguise
The pain that i feel
…within the sadness of my eyes.

Rehab....



Convalescence
“I don’t need any more counseling…”

Okay, I’ll admit it
You were my drug of choice
I was so hooked on you
I damn near lost my voice

Couldn’t sleep most nights
There were times I needed you
For late night hits
Just to get through

Forget cold turkey
I thought I had an endless supply
You were a harmless addiction
One I couldn’t deny

Never thought I’d ever
Have to come down off that high
But when my source got cut off
I thought I’d surely die

At first I didn’t want you
My friends told me to stay away
But I had to try it once
I still remember that day

On a Friday morning
I decided to skip class
You came by and gave me an offer
One that I couldn’t pass

Held it in my hands
I took a whiff
 It Smelled exquisite
So I took a sip


Then that was it
Once was all it took
Too late to resist
By then I was hooked

On some freaky, Sneaky
Creepy
 Type of Ish

Had me licking, Biting, Sucking
And scratching
Begging for another hit

So yeah I can admit it
You WERE my drug of choice
But I’m fresh out of rehab
Without a shred of remorse…

No Escape...


When
“We cannot escape this fate…”

It’s going to happen…

When
You see my
Face…

When
You hear my
Voice…

When
You smell my
Scent…

When
You feel my
Embrace…

When
You taste my
Kiss…

When
You receive my
Touch…

When
You unbutton my
Shirt…

&

When
You Experience my
Love

It’s a done deal…

It’s something we cannot avoid…

Knowing...



Because

“It’s the knowing that hurts the most…”

It hurts because…
I thought I’d lost the game
It hurts because…
I thought that I was to blame

It hurts because…
I know you never cared for me
It hurts because…
I know your love was never shared with me

It hurts because…
I knew it was wasn’t right from the start
It hurts because…
I knew eventually it would all fall apart

It hurts because…
I wanted it all to work, for awhile
It hurts because…
I wanted to stay in denial

It hurts because…
I was afraid to feel it
It hurts because…
I was afraid time would reveal it

It hurts because…
I feared that I would still be the same
It hurts because…
I feared I couldn’t change

It hurts because…
I’d never again see your face
And I don’t hurt anymore because…
I realized I’m in a better place

Hello...Fear....




FEARFUL
"For the thing I greatly feared has come upon me, and what I dreaded has happened to me." -Job 3:25

My greatest concern,
Or should I say the biggest fear to me
Is that one morning You will wake up
And realize I’m not really what I appear to be

In Your mind
I’m the perfect mate
The one who can do no wrong
And the guy You believe to be so great.

It’s so very hard
To live a lie…
On the surface it seems
I’m the perfect guy…

But I know I’m not
I am reminded of my flaws daily
But You can’t see them
Love can make some visions hazy

You can’t understand
For me each day is a chore
Trying to conceal the truth
Or from it, to ignore

I hope and pray
You don’t ever see my reality
Maybe You’ll be shocked if You do
And decide to reject me.

I couldn’t accept that fate
So each day is test
For me to be what I feel I am not
And hope I don’t break down from the stress

I know one day You will wake up
While I am lying there…
And realize that I am really nothing
That is my greatest fear…
