M's Poetry
Beyond The Photo
I'm trying to please you
I'm trying to leave you
and the memories man are they painful
it fell apart and I don't even remember when anymore
emotions that never was expressed because you was froze
always seem to be tore in two
stuck between this picture of a family
I'm so sad inside, so mad inside
because I never felt you there
the time you beat me
right over the head with a belt buckle
the time you pushed my sister down the steps
the sudden rush of blood down her head
every time you hit me with that wooden bat I remember
the scene stayed on repeat
you're so cold and distant
I don't think anyone can fix this
can't or won't love the people
that want to love you
quick to shut out anyone
if they don't agree with your point of view
isn't it so easy to fake being happy a photo?
for us it comes naturally....
