Fully Loaded Revolver

Hey can you here me?
do you know that I exist?

Did you know that I’m the one
Who brought you to the nurse?
When the big kid beat you up
You looked awfully hurt

Then I gave you a high five
When none of the other kids would
Because you got the word right
That no one else could

I hugged when you were down
And sat with you on the bus
Then I bailed you out of trouble
When the tattle-tale said you cussed

I held your hand on a field trip
When we had to cross the street
I gave you my old action figure
That you said you’d forever keep

I wiped away your tears
When your parents had a fight
We read scary stories in the tree house
And we stayed up all night

I rode bikes with you ‘till dawn
We drank soda all afternoon
Until a single day…
When you’d said you found somebody new

At first I didn’t know what to say
A new friend? Or something more?
I didn’t want to hurt her feelings
Most if all I didn’t want to hurt yours

There were days when I really missed you
I only saw you once a day
Because I still sat with you on the bus
Wanting to cry the day away

I called you at night sometimes
And it was awkward and rare
We used to talk about everything
Now I couldn’t even bare

I gave you one last final call
The phone rang and I cried
You asked what was wrong
I told you that you lied

We promised to be friends forever
But then she came into view
She took everything away from me
Most important…you

You came over to my house
And you gave a friendly hug
I told you to get lost
And you gave a little shrug

The door slammed behind you
I hit it with my fists
I wanted so much have you
But instead I got this

I called you one final time
You picked up the phone annoyed
“I love you…always have
I say good bye tonight”

Time to say my last words
“Why did I do this to myself?”
I took the fully loaded revolver
And held it too my chest

You arrived just in time for the show
I’m gonna end this misery in a final blow

I pulled back the trigger
my knees buckled
I fell bleeding

You took my last letter
Read it and wept-

Hey can you hear me?
Did you even have a clue?
That all of this time...
I've always loved you...



Red writing on the wall-

Hey, can you hear me?
I dont know what to to...
Why would you do this?
All along I've loved you too...


You held the revolver to your head
Bam.
We're both dead.

You fell next to me
Our fingers barely touched
God how I've missed you
I've missed you so much

Hey can you hear us?
Now we don't exist...

I've Got This Feel.

You've got this feel for poetry.
Just like you've got into,
feeling me.
Touching and scraping,
you make my skin crawl.
Biting and stroking,
pinned to the wall.
Kissing and moaning,
you know me too well.
You know my soft spots,
where my customers dwell.
You keep my locked up here,
like an animal in a cage.
It just isnt big enough
To hold a mans rage.
You are the man, who doesn't know how.
To make love to a victim,
who's hooked on you for doubt.
