but not anymore i'm sick its over
i hate loving more then needed
can someone please help me!

Mess'd + F'd Up Family of 4

I can't stand you, all of you
Every day, I try to
Stay far away; I make sure
That you can't reach me

Mom, you're always at work
Cynically loveless, despising
Males of the world, not even
Letting me have them for friends

I might as well die loving
Females, would that make
You happy to not have
Blue eyed grandchildren?

They won't have blue eyes!
I'm asian; they'd always have
Brown; pure, coffee brown
Circles, that can see

Dad... go ahead
Fly to whatever darn country
Your church tells you
The kingdom of heaven is

The kingdom isn't just for you
It's for everyone
And it isn't just a kingdom
It's your "hope"

Your church isn't the only church
There's hundreds, millions
You won't be the only ones
Going to heaven

Go ahead, sulk and die
Take your f'in pills you "don't believe in"
Use your f'in "anointing cloth"
Go ahead, die... pretend, liar

Bro, shut up... for the last time
Shut it, you make me sick
I want to type... let me type
You're annoying

So annoying
Out of all the brothers, why you?
You suck... I can kick you
See? One, two

Out of the families
Out of these four
I hope, pray
That I'm the normal one.

Xx Too Late xX

Every time I look at you
I'm riddled with confusion
Happy childhood memories
Were just my own delusions

I'm never going to understand
How you could tear my life apart
You knew what was going to happen
Yet you went with it from the start

How do you sleep through the night
Knowing what you did?
You did what you thought would be right?
Just who are you trying to kid?

I've grown up in many ways
And I'm finally seeing sense
I know everything that happened now
So stop with the pretense

Do you really think you did nothing wrong?
Then explain all of my tears!
Now you want to get to know me?
Yet you've not bothered for years

Now I'm flooded with your messages
It's just one after another
But it's too late to make it up...
Your no longer my mother! ©

True Pride;;
Condescending;;Heart.

I guess you could say
that my love for you has faded
You took away a piece of my life
That made my world so jaded

Silently innocent at first
A completely different person you've become
Desperately hoping for pain
From this hate you've grown so numb

Shattered to pieces with cracks and lines
Darling I'd fall right through
But with these secrets and lies
I've turned my back on you

Its hard to say I've forgotten
All of the laughs we to have shared
And to ever smile with you again
I'll never be prepared

But Still you'll never be replaced
Just now your dead to me
Through all of your promises
I was to blind to see

I've closed my eyes to you
Do you feel this world gone cold
As the stories behind your drunken tales
Finally unfold

Despise is not a strong enough word
To describe my feelings for you
For I hold my head up high
Because my pride is true.

Great job so far guys!

Dirty Little Secret

Remember our little secret I promised not to tell,
That if I told my daddy, they’d lock him up in jail,
As a child I didn’t understand exactly what that meant,
That if I told my dad your deeds, to prison he’d be sent,
For murder of my uncle that my innocence was lost,
To defend his daughter by any means or cost,

Unspeakable images forever etched in my brain,
That dirty little secret always driving me insane,
I never shared that secret but held it close in mind,
Years came and went and then there came a time,
Word of your sickness spread through family talk,
That dirty little secret in my mind did stalk,

As I lay alone and broken crying in my bed,
Memories of it haunt me and terrorize my head,
The innocence from me I know that you did steal
But now I’ve got a secret that in time will reveal,
The suffering and the pain from a secret never told,
Now reverses lives and is bound to come unfold,

Finally my conscience clear and my mind is free,
A lump forms in my throat I hope you rest in peace,
As you lay there in your bed gasping for your breath,
Praying to a God you never knew and begging him for death,
My prayers have been answered my secret I did tell,
And now your punishment is to forever burn in hell

does this have to be new?

(if so please omit my entry)
(i will not be on again soon.. soo i will not be able to check)

Caged in this dark prison
my only relief: a rusted blade
the memories of the beauty and light
have begun to twist and fade fade

the cage I'm in is made of your love,
your hate, your pain, and your lies
they've trapped me here for my whole life,
even after i suffer and die

this murderous pain and suffering
it is what you've done to my soul
and its being torn apart piece by piece
it will never again be whole

this cage of death is your love
and this wretched blade is mine
its the only pain i can cause
theres a heart beneath those lines

this razor blade opens the truth
though it seems as though only my skin
it breaks through this barren cage
and shows whats truly within.

feelings mean nothing in this prison
i am but an animal caged and forgotten
only this animal has been torn apart
and has been left cold and rotten

this razor cuts away the dead flesh
and shows whats truly there inside
but this lovely gift comes with a price
and emotions whats denied.

please let me out of this prison
i have exposed my every thought
but still I'm locked up in this prison
even though i am overwrought.

**to my father. yea i basicly hate him..

Do you know the meaning of personal?
This applies to MY LIFE
I know I'm still your little girl,
But just knowing you'll back out will suffice
The boys I know
The things I hear
You think it's you job to know
Everything, don't you see?
I talk on the phone
You pretend to be me
By falling to the floor
and yelling
BOYS ARE MY LIFE AND THEY RUINED IT!
It's not funny anymore
You interupt my conversations
With commands that don't make sense
You want to know who I know
So when you ask "Who do you like today?"
And I just get so tense
Please back out of my life
As I said before
That will suffice

~To my mom~
