  • Late (2)

    I was late for everything:
    Late in finding you...

  • A lost soul from a bad example
    Down the path to corruption...

  • As I look above me into the deep black night,
    I can see your sparkling eyes...

  • These pages in my book
    Are coffee-stained and thin...

  • Lets talk about the weather
    Lets talk about the plants...

  • Nothing now but the whisper of the wind
    And the slight crashes of the rain drops...

  • I used to cry because I missed you,
    I was sad because you're gone...

  • The sweet taste of broken glass is resting on my...
    As the essence of living escapes the prison walls...

  • Slave (1)

    Admiring eyes study the beautiful shade of hazel...
    But you don't even know I'm there...

  • As the storm slowly approaches
    The twigs begin to sway...

  • Lost in my cell
    I'm sentenced to death...

  • Anger and fustration pours into my viens
    My capsule is cracking...
