PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I can't sleep at night/Thinking about what could've been what might/Trust doesn't last/In a family trying to forget the past/I was made the outcast/They trying to say that I don't care/Cause showing emotions for me is rare/I ask for the truth and get nothing but lies/When I gotcha caught you cover yourself with alibis/Like a sibling I lost to abortion the life my mama took/Theres more then meets the eye well take another look/How would it be/If she got rid of me/Shes crying now cause she thinks we lost respect/It was gone years ago with the neglect/How can you look me in the eye/And tell me that weak ass lie/How you let him treat us/How you let him beat us/Picked up a habit when I picked up a bottle/Pops made such a good role model/Where do I place the blame/How much do I claim/I've gotta dream hope I live to be it/The day when I'm finally happy when will I see it



Masters of deception

Fucking with my perception

Whos real whos fake misconception

Remain silent and take exception



Well lets talk about fake/The friends who deceived me when I slept so I stay awake/No one stops long enough/To help me carry on when it gets rough/Where the hell is you/When I need someone to run to/It used to be/Just you and me/We ran the streets/If one of us went down the other would take the heat/Its like you don't need me anymore but I won't take second seat/You were the source of light/In my dark life/Wheres the person I thought I knew/I take another look at you/A chronic liar who can't be true/Do you even trust you/I front like it doesn't hurt/But it does and it can't get any worse



Give me a chance I'll take one/Mistakes Lord knows I've made some/Everybody tearing me down/Get off my cloud/Making me cold hearted/Since the abuse started/I used to care now I could give a fuck/This addiction had got me stuck/When all else fails me/The liquor prevails, see/I've lost all hope/Its become my way to cope/My escape and I hate the way it makes me feel/Another side of me revealed/A side thats not real/I hear these voices/That tell me to make the wrong choices/Ignore them and do right I've tried/Theres nowhere left for me to hide
