2 birds one stone

Jeff87333



's crazed the way

Life can turn into these shades of grey

Love can turn to hate, and take away the words we wanna say..Apologies are shallow

Ankle deep inside the ocean

All emotions in a bottle thrown to sea and now they're floating..Standing frozen like a snowman,It's the winter at it's coldest

Only men with empty hearts without a soul could ever know this

It's a funeral of feeling,

As I kneel around the roses taking sips of liquid healing

It gets realer every dosage

And i see her! Yes! I see her!

As she's laying in the casket, 

Filled with words, and subtle curses,

 that remind me i'm bastard

Maybe it's my german blood, 

A product of my history,

But raised with different values,

 so my actions are a mystery

Or indeed they maybe arent

Among the shadows ive been distancing,

For years ive yet to see them, 

but i swear i think theyre listening,

They dance across the ceiling,

 with antagonizing motion 

Til they disappear to dark with just another sip of potion

  • BRIAN & ANGELA

    WELCOME JEFF ~ Thanks for posting your very painful first poem - I trust you found it cathartic. My Sister is 38 and to me my most precious Friend. I know how I felt when she was ill or in an accident so in a small way I can empathise with you and your awful experience of losing your precious SIS ! The line "Lying in a casket" (from the rap) is very haunting and final and it chilled me as I read it. Your poem (song) pulsates with rhyme and rhythm which amplifies the tragedy of its content ! Thanks for carin' an' sharin' BRIAN
