Hollow

Please, leave alone my broken soul,

Let my fractured spirit wander,

For my rest is in my sorrow.


I cannot dream to be complete,

Or feel my heart grow full,

With her absence in tomorrow.


My lifeblood freezes in my veins,

My lungs will not inflate,

This is time I only borrow.


To know she’s gone and shall remain,

It fills my chest with dread,

After her, I long to follow.


There is no joy or peace ...

Broken

Broken is all I’ll ever be.


These scars and cuts define me.


Sometimes it’s on accident but sometimes it’s on purpose…


These cut marks will always define me and will never leave me.


Sometimes it’s the only thing I can control.


Everyone hurts me and feels no remorse.


Please if your out there just leave my broken soul alone…...

Woman Of Clay 

In this borrowed skin, where dreams are thin and frail,

A stranger's gaze from my reflection's face,

I walk the line, for fear that I will fail.


Your hands, they build me up, Just to break me down,

I cannot prevail in love’s relentless chase,

I am but a mannequin, Gagged and bound.


Each step I take, feels like a foreign trail,

A masquerade where truth cannot embrace,

You dig my grave, seal it s...

You can’t mend my wounds

You can’t fix my woe.


My hearts tainted black

And I’m broken to the bone

Please leave alone, my broken soul.


Most days I’m cruel , I can’t speak kind words

I’ll always be a foe

You can’t fix my woe.


My cracks root deep, into my core

My light has leaked

Please, leave alone my broken soul.


Some days I wish, I were like you

But I’m alo...

My Broken Soul

Please, leave alone my broken soul

Let it succumb to the damage it’s done

It doesn’t deserve the life it’s in

It doesn’t deserve to see the sun


Let it shrivel up and fall apart

Let it writher in pain

Don’t you dare touch it

Or it’ll make you go down the wrong lane


My soul has been broken down bit by bit

By emotional trauma and more

It will never ever heal fully

It makes my life a chore


Leave m...

Please Leave Alone My Broken Soul

Please, leave alone my broken soul

Permit my heart to bleed

For my surrender yields control


Your ways elude my frail control

But still you plant a seed

Please, leave alone my broken soul


You sow rich promise in my soul

A puerile hope sprouts like a weed

For my surrender yields control


Such scarcity’s in my control

My dreams you tether to your greed

Please, leave alone my broken soul


And what ...

Evil woman

Started out in life at an early age

Met this beautiful young lady

Decided we would marry

Biggest mistake I ever made


At first it was all good very normal

Months past and things begun to change

Very demanding hollering arguing

Very possessive the evil starts coming out


Go to hang out with my friends

The evil young lady crashes the party

I try to calm her and take her home

She claws and scrat...

Please, leave alone my broken soul,

Tarnished by years of doubt

And hate as black as coal.


Please, come hold me in your heart.

In this warm, sturdy embrace

You can mend my broken parts.


Please, forgive me for my sins.

The past is gone away

But its words still stain my skin.


Please, walk into my mind.

The door has been unlocked.

It’s dark and cold, but kind.


Please, fly away with me,

Sick of the lies.

All of my silent cries.

Damn these soul ties.

Your heart is bitter and tart.
