A Simple Painful Truth

No matter how much pain

No matter the betrayal

No matter the forfeited words

No matter the broken promises

No matter the shattered 

      hopes and dreams

No matter how you hurt my heart...

On you 

I could never hold things against...

Still...

No matter what you've done

No matter what have been

The painful truth 

      is simple and clear

God did not meant us 

to be...

for each other...

The Outcry Within

I trusted you...

You broke my heart...

I have faith in you

You ruined my life...

Into pieces 

my whole being

you crashed...

Never healing pain...

Never ceasing tears...

streaming down 

from my frail heart...

You pushed me in the world of

Despair 

Devastation 

Frustration

Betrayal 

You brought me 

In a make believe 

I struggled to not believe...

I wonder how could you've done

such cruelty 

to one such as me...

who fought through all your battles

for thee...

In all your storms stood by thee...

Standing On My Grave

I am trying to exist 

though I'm dead...

I'm trying to breathe

though I lost life...

Everyday I am facing my grave 

I have died with the love 

you once professed...

You promised you're here to stay

But you turned your back

and left...

Your words you threw away

like dust in the wind they fade...

Now you are gone 

like you're gone in the grave...

So I am...yet alive...

but I am standing on my grave...

He made me...

He made me...

He made me... 

He made me fight 

to survive...

He made me 

hope and dream...

He made me 

believe that I can...

He made me 

cross the oceans

and climbed 

my mountains...

He made me 

prove that I can...

He made me 

the best that I can be...

He made me..

Yet...

All so instantly...

He took it all 

from me...
