SICK AND TIRED

You lied to me
It wasn’t fair
No second thoughts
You didn’t care. 

You played around
I should’a known
I’m not the one
Who’s always stoned. 

I wasted time
Time spent with you
I didn’t know 
What else to do?

You have  your friends
You have your wine
I’m  sick and tired
Of all the lying.

Don’t call me up 
Don’t try and text
Don’t hit me up
For late night sex.

I’m through with you
I got my stuff
There’s nothing else
I’ve had enough.

FORGOTTEN

 
Cast aside
What could I do?
Came out of nowhere
We were through.

Couldn’t fight it
Or make it stop
Felt so confused
Knew I was fucked.

All our plans
What just happened?
All the promises
Now forgotten.

All the things
I felt inside
Could barely speak
I wept …. I cried.

Like a child
I felt so helpless
No reply
I was so jealous.

So deeply crushed
I couldn’t breathe
I heard you say
“You need to leave”.

“She’s moving in
You have to go!”
Why so  cold?
Why so low?

The words …. like echos
Kept repeating
My heart was broken
I was bleeding.

You didn’t care
Pushed me away
Told me to go
To leave that day.

CRUSHED

I felt sick
What could I do?
Out of nowhere
We were through. 

Couldn’t fight it
Was in shock
Felt so confused
Knew I was fucked.

All our plans
What just happened?
All the promises
All  forgotten.

All the things
I felt inside
Could barely speak
I sat and cried.

Like a child
I felt so helpless
Had no comeback
I was so jealous.

So deeply crushed
I couldn’t breathe
I heard you say
“You need to leave”.

“She’s moving in
You have to go”
Why so  cold?
Why so low?

The words like echos
Keep repeating
My heart is broken
It won’t stop bleeding.

DREAMS

You’ve been trying
For  too long
You try your best
But something’s wrong.

Time’s slipping by
You need a change
So  quit that job
Then start again.

Behind the counter
Far from view
For way too long
Who could see you?

New faces … places
A new routine
A brand new future
You should be seeing.

New friends …. adventures
Waiting for you
Your hopes … your dreams
Should all come true.

Reach in your pocket

Check that lotto

Cash in those chips

They’re waiting for ya.

Come out of hiding

Stop your whining

Get off your butt

Get up … start trying.

Who cares about

All the excuses?

All the hot chicks

Are on the cruises.

You sit at home

Play videos

Put down that phone

Get up and go.

NEVER THOUGHT

Never thought I’d lose you
Thought we would be friends
Thought I ‘d get to see you
If only now and then.

Maybe at a concert 
A play or a cafe
You’d be having coffee
Sitting there …. that very day.

But I never got to see you
It wasn’t meant to be
You left your old apartment
You moved on …. but without me.

Now you’re just a memory
A single moment in time
I wasn’t what you wanted
You had simply changed your mind.

Never thought I’d ever lose you
Hard to accept the bitter truth
That I am better off  without you
Better off …. not seeing you.

WALKING IN CIRCLES

Out in the cold
Left all alone
Feeling the hurt
Down to the bone.

The guilt and shame
Knowing you’re gone
All I did
And it went wrong

You’ll never know
How much I cared
What I went through
I was so scared.

Walking in circles
All around
Looking for what
Just can’t be found.

No second chance
Apologies
The simple truth
You don’t want me.

Can’ t change your mind
Can’t change the past
Nothing to do
To get you back.

CORRUPTION

Liars …. thieves and cheaters
In government positions
No honor or integrity
Among these politicians.

Following a leader 
Devoid of moral virtue
Who only cares about himself
Who doesn’t care about you.

Anger …. lies …. hostility 
A master of corruption 
He wants the system to implode
Delights in the destruction.

Has no respect for democracy 
Objects to the rule of law
Doesn’t want to follow orders
Won’t adhere to protocols.

A clear and present danger 
Loves to muddle up the facts
Thrives on retaliation 
But true courage? …. That he lacks.

Organized the planned attack
Upon the Capitol Building
Doesn’t care who gets hurt
Condones the theft and killings.

He may not be convicted
Though he has been impeached
But New York State will be there
To prosecute this creep.

TRAP AND RELEASE

I let you pet me
What did you do?
Where are my kittens?
I trusted you.

Against my will
I’m in a rage
Why would you trap me?
Put me in a cage?

Now unprotected
Alone and afraid
My kittens defenseless
What a mess …. you have made.

Don’t want this procedure
I’m feeling so scared
I thought that you loved me
I thought that you cared.

This is a nightmare
A chamber of horrors 
I’m begging you
Take off this cone collar.

I want to come home
Please set me free
How did this happen
Happen to me?

COLD AS HELL

You’re cold as hell
And I’m on fire
Filled with longing
And desire.

You pull away
Won’t let me in
I keep trying
Time and again.

Nothing matters
Without you
Don’t know  
What I am going to do.

Hard as stone
Can’t penetrate
No way in hell
You locked the gate.

Deep within
Down to  the bone
Can’t reach you
You’re not at home.

Miles away
Worlds  apart
I’m left with just
This broken heart.

PLEASE LET GO

Get out of my head
Get out of my space
Can’t bear to see
That look on your face.

But  I can’t stay
Can’t hold your hand
I have to leave
Please understand.

I wanna let go
I wanna  move on
What we once had 
Is over …. it’s gone.

Why can’t you see ?
It’s not meant to be
Please let me go
Let go of me.

Don’t wanna feel bad
Don’t start up again
We can’t be together
Can’t even be friends.

That look in your eyes
Tears me apart
Don’t wanna hurt you
Or break your heart.

Please let me go
I’m feeling so bad
I know that you’re hurting
I know that you’re sad.
