Tears of Hope
As I sit here all alone.
Thinking of a selfish destruction.
In the woods in the quiet peace.
I think of her perspection.
With sweat and tears rolling down my face.
My heart beats fast.
I couldn’t let go of all I hate.
Especially not my past.
The one I lost and the ones I miss.
Seem to fade away.
I only wanted a lil hope.
But gave up any way.
So now again all alone w a gun to my head
I pull the trigger. click… click… click…
Now it makes sense what she said.
She told me of a man that could change it all and a man who cares.
She said hes my father.
Yes hes the one up stairs.
And all this time.
I felt it, a hole in my heart.
Well now I don’t and now I see.
Just where I must truly start.
I’ll go to church and find my home and kill of my burning pain.
And now I know what it was she had been saying.
Even tho shes far away.
She my favorite big sis.
Who saved my life for another day.
So I could cry like this.
Not in sorrow but in hope that I may breath again.
I’m glad to know her such an inspiration to me a real true friend.
