Her last breath, my last goodbye
The wind blows softly in my ear
Soft sweet sorrow that I may hear
This lovely song brings me to tears
As I wish more than ever that you were here
Yet no longer will your presence last
Your time on this earth has come and passed
The life you lived was much too fast
You have no future now, only a past
My heart begins to ache and burn
As I sit and wait for your return
Those soothing words for which I yearn
I’ll never hear as I now have learned
So now ill lay here on this hill
Your voice whispers through the wind so still
The sound of it gives my soul a chill
I want to stop missing you, but I never will
So I fall to my grass stained knees and cry
As I beg my God and ask Him "why?"
Look up into His majestic sky
And say to you my last goodbye.
Soothing Words
Many have said it’s far too late
The burden I bear, oh how it gains weight
My choice has now become my fate
I’m stuck in this unsettling mental state
Up ‘til now I’ve done okay
I’ve gained and I’ve lost along the way
And now I ask in much dismay
Is this growing burden here to stay?
Those words you sing, they comfort me
I am hypnotized. It’s plain to see
The answer now is clear to me
The path I choose: eternity
Those words. Your words, they are so true
Could my fate be bound to you?
What is it that I must do
To conquer the things I must go through?
I have no choice for you sing to me
A song of a soothing melody
I follow you now in empathy
For my heart is locked and you hold the key
When your song is finally through
I could leave if I wanted to
But I just want to be here with you
Those words. Your words, they are so true
If I had one last thing to say
I wouldn’t have it any other way
I ask. I beg for you to stay
Here with me ‘til the end of my days
This next one actually was written before I ever had a girlfriend or even interest in girls in high school, yet here I am at age 23 and thinking of someone named Courtney that I wrote this specific poem for in future-tense... rock on!
Heartbreaker
I must admit you had me fooled
The way you played me for the fool
The way you used me like a tool
Using my heart as a stepping stool
I wish I never let you in
I wish you didn’t make me sin
You ignited a fire that’s deep within
Then left my heart cold and empty as tin
It’s not that easy to let you know
How great I feel to see you go
‘Cause right now this is all I know
I’m tired of acting like some reality show
You left me with that bitter taste
That taste of letting love go to waste
And now the feelings that I chased
Have suddenly turned on me and changed their pace
This love that I once had for you
Was that of only a love that is true
But you couldn’t see this through
And now you don’t know what to do
But everyone knows how just how you feel
The way you search for another heart to steal
To make some poor boy’s heart your meal
To feed the huger with which you cannot deal
But I’ll be ok without you here
Just don’t make me shed one more tear
For the next time that we meet I fear
That I will want to hold you near
And then the process will start a new
And I will end up hating you
And this song will be proven true
As you make my heart into a heartbreak stew
But I will learn better after long
And I wont have to re-write this song
For all the things that we did wrong
Will become better once you are gone
So please don’t expect my love anymore
Cause the first time you threw it out the door
And now you will get what’s in store
For all those hearts you stepped on before
You’re an earth shaker, a soul taker, a sorrow maker, a tear faker.
But most of all in everyone’s minds, you will always be known as the heartbreaker.
There are a few others, but I think Ill stop there for now. Can't think of anything normal to say or talk about tonight so I'm going to leave it at that.
