With you
i can smell the whiskey on your breath,
i can taste her on your lips.
i see the deceit in your eyes,
the betrayal in your smile.
Yet here I am again, with you.
Happiness a thing of the past
An emotion forgotten.
How agonizing
To see what could have been
And to know it can never be real.
I twist the ring around my finger
the meaning it\'s supposed to have
so entirely worthless to you.
just a circle of metal
you so commonly wear in your pocket
instead.
Yet here I am again
With you.
i hear you slip out the back door
wearing too much cologne.
the trail of your scent,
the only thing left behind
besides me, all alon
i would
give myself to you.
let me allow you to control me.
sacrifice
the burdens of the free
for a taste of their ignorance,
their blissful slavery.
so say
lies and deceit.
prove to me
exactly what i want to believe.
tell us
everything we want to hear.
sell me a heaven,
tell me there is nothing to fear.
make me believe.
show me
all the things i\'ve ever needed
i can find inside you.
promise me happiness,
assure me that it\'s true.
give me deliverance,
forgive me of my sins.
make me pure once more
just so i can do it all again.
My Love
I woke up this afternoon,
And got myself a gun.
Don't you fret or run, my love,
The fun has just begun.
Only have six bullets, my love,
How ever will I choose?
How can I really decide
Who gets to win or lose?
A bullet into all the bullies,
All the ones I really despise.
They brought it upon themselves, my love,
They wrote their own demise.
A bullet into all the clones, my love,
Following all the mindless trends,
Still trying to be exactly the same
Stealing the minds of all my friends.
A bullet into you, my love,
For every lie you told that I believed
A bullet into God, my love,
For it was I, all along, whom you dec
Flutter By, Butterfly
A moth rests on an open leaf
And to it we pay no attention.
A butterfly rests on a open leaf
It's Nature's greatest invention.
We'd swat away a moth,
Press against the wall an ant or fly,
Step upon a roach or beetle,
But we'd never harm a butterfly.
So flutter by, butterfly.
Rejoice in your unquestionable reign.
Flutter past the moths and beetles,
Oblivious your beauty is driving them insane.
All we see is the outside,
Unaware how alike they really are.
Underneath they're nearly the same--
But the butterfly is still the star.
So flutter by, butterfly.
While eyes see you and pass me by.
Flutter by the c
744?
Slavery has yet to come to an end,
Society blindly follows each trend.
Hundreds more succumb each day
Thinking it is the righteous way.
81, 82, 83 more follow still.
What ever happened to human free will?
Slaves to our fears of the unknown;
Slaves to the ideas of our own.
In bondage to the conformation
we have created in this nation.
210, 211, 212 more follow still.
Killing ourselves, our heads to the drill.
What makes you great is not who you are,
Its how you dress and what kind of car.
Straying from the path leads to conformity, too:
More try to stray; now they're individuals--just like you.

my recreation
feels like there\'s no use trying
with each step i\'m ten thousand more miles behind
i\'ve already lost the race,
my oppressors in first place
stumbling, falling, face to the pavement,
bleeding, crawling. tell me,
why should I keep running?
and its beginning to seem
like all I want to do now
is get away from the world
and you and me.
hide in my corner
and cry myself to a sleep
that i\'d never wake up from.
hanging on to life by what used to be a thread
trying so hard to convice myself
that it hasn\'t already unraveled,
that everything i had is yet to be dead
when every second more of it turns to dust

The Million Poison Tears by antithetic, literature
Literature
The Million Poison Tears
The Million Poison Tears
I cried a million tears for you
I drowned in the bitter taste
of the dewdrops of the dawn,
the morning after our love was gone.
That grey, clouded sunrise
I never hoped to face alone.
I smiled to hide the frown
Tatooed to my lips with your poison,
Coughed to mask the tremble in my voice,
While I swore I wouldn't cry
As tears quickly filled my eyes.
While I wrote my last poem
for you and only for you.
I cried a million tears for you,
wept out every essence of you
that I kept deep inside of me.
Harvested the dismally somber sorrow,
Bottled up the tears,
Bottled up our love,
And poured it into the rag
i would
give myself to you.
let me allow you to control me.
sacrifice
the burdens of the free
for a taste of their ignorance,
their blissful slavery.
so say
lies and deceit.
prove to me
exactly what i want to believe.
