No One Said

No one ever said it was going to be
Something that would always be easy
I too was bred to be of the persuasion
That things would be to the contrary
Sometimes I wish it was all just a dream
Something from which I could wake up
The terrors press into my mind at night
Causing such a fright
Turn on the light

Last Night

I said
How do you feel about last night?
And you said
I don’t know I don’t feel right
And I said
That I was stupid and sorry and could we talk about it
And you said
You weren’t lucid and
Needed some time to think
And now I’m dead
I can’t see straight when we’re not right
And I dread
Giving you a reason to take flight
That thread
Follows me everywhere I go
In my head
An irreparable error that fixes woe
But I won’t have it
I won’t sustain
A creepin notion that intends
To kill and maim
The heavy blessing that gives the two of us a name
I said
What can I do to make things right?
And you said
Lifting the doubt will take some might
So I bled
Into our couch the tears of solitude
Until you tread
Into the room
With eyes of grace and said
I won’t have it
I won’t sustain
A creepin notion that intends
To kill and maim
The heavy blessing that gives the two of us a name
