I'd like to think that I've grown. As a writer, I mean.

Forfeit

Call my name
Call my name
While you feel no shame
Leading me on
Like this is a game
Listen dude
Don't play with me
I'm not in the mood
For what you're saying to me
Your touch is burning
It leaves a scar
My heart came close
But you went so far
And I don't see
I don't see
Why you did this to me
If you don't love me
Then let me be
You act so nice
Like the passion is heat.
But you feel nothing
When our lips meet
So I want you to know
I want you to know
My damn heart just keeps breaking
So let me go.



Unspoken

I promised myself I wouldn't cry
But promises are meant to be broken
Maybe I'd live a better lie,
If just for once I had spoken

I think not of the wounds
And I hold my head high
So why do I feel
So unclean?

Why do I toss
and turn in the night
Hoping that this life
Is a dream?

Whatever's left to say
Has all been said
But not out loud
Not to myself

Or perhaps it was
And I didn't listen
Hoping it wasn't real

That if I just kept it out
It would stay untrue
And the truth would remain
Unseen

I promised myself I wouldn't lie
A promise so quickly broken
I know it would be easier to cry
If just that once I had spoken.


Balcony Scene

City lights
Like a bad dream
Looming across
As far as I can see.

Dreary wind
Blowing east
The stars fall down
Drenching me

I think I hear Potter's Crossing
Though I know it's an ocean away
And I wish I could hear it one more day
Just one more time
Lying on my bed
Looking up at my sky

I want to feel
That suburban wind
Completing me
Like a gentle hymn

I need to feel
That same wind blow
Tapping gently
On my window

But here, I all I hear
Are the silent screams
Of the city, the people
And dying dreams




I wrote that about being homesick.


Unbecoming I feel like this is my best one yet. My favorite.

When I think about what's happened to me
I see your face in my place
Because I realize everything I did
Was everything you did to me
While waiting to be set free
I've become everything you were
Make it stop.
Don't make it hurt anymore.

The shame and sin of what I did
The restless nights and unwilling fights
My disgusting smile in response to their screams
This is what you've made me
This time I know that
In the end
You are what's become of me

Drunk perversion and violent persuasion
The unholy Crusades, an alien invasion
Upon my body, you feasted on my soul
You stronger with my cries
And I don't dare to control
You or me
While waiting to be set free
I've become everything you were
Make it stop
I know you can't hurt me anymore

The shame and sin of what I did
The restless nights and unwilling fights
My disgusting smile in response to their screams
This is what you've made me
This time I know that
In the end
You are what's become of me

So why have I chosen a victim in the name of repulsive deeds?
Why have I let you plant within me your evil crop and seeds?
Why do I hear my shrieks and taste the salt of my own tears
When my prisoner comes to mind?
How is it that you haunt me when you are captured and confined?
I breathed in your lies and bore your legacy
While waiting to be set free
I've become everything you were
Make it stop, make it fucking stop!!
I won't let you hurt me anymore.

Now someone else is dying
Becoming everything I am
Becoming you
I'm everyting you were
But I'll make it stop, I'll kill your memory
You won't hurt anyone anymore.

The shame and sin of what I did
The restless nights and unwilling fights
My disgusting smile in response to their screams
This is what you've made me
This time I know that
In the end
You are what's become of me

You've made me everything you were
You've destroyed me, I'll destroy you back
Leave you lying on the floor.
