PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

This room is dark

Two of the bulbs burned out

Just filled with a blackened ash

A silhouette in the shadow of the past



Doesn't this sound familiar

The beating of the skeletons at the door

The flesh turns to bones then to powder ash

Like when the regrets you lived suddenly flashback



But don't let that break you down

Patch the hole that you found

Pull that dagger out of your back

And turn that anger into somthing they won't expect

Like when they spit on your cheek, spit back respect

Crucify them with a cross that will save their lives



And I don't know if I'm liked here

But I'm doing what my heart tells me

And if there's a crime in that

You can shackle my wrists

You can put a ball and chain on my feet

But my tongue will still be free

And you will have to hear the words I speak



And I know it's hard for you to hear

"I forgive you" when you think you've done nothing wrong

But that reason right there is why I do

And don't let that break you down



Cause only you can patch that hole

Where you think you lack, but the world doens't see it

Cause your as strong as they'll ever be

In fact probably that much stronger for being humble



Start crucifying them on a cross that will change their lives

When they spit on you, spit back respect in diguise
