Gone

 

Gone,

 

A life in search for a way to leave

In this broken home we seem to all hide

I see it all, I just don't acknowledge it

Somethings are better left unsaid

I’ve learned to listen because words are empty

But it's hard to ignore the words that my girl hates me

and these drugs don’t help me

I can't stand pretending as I masquerade happiness

behind short nights and cheap liquor

 

The friends I can't stand, I still stand with

I’m just as fake as the ones I talk about

I've seen enough, I've done enough

the end result is what I'm afraid of

There is only one way, so I cry out for the way out

It looks right but it feels wrong

but what else do I have to turn to? It's all gone

Never forgot the night I told my self

“I would die to be happy”

Who knew it would come to that?

All in, there’s no turning back

 

I'm gone 

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is a piece I put together to try and capture this part of my life where i have done all I have to be happy. Everything was not working in my life and I soon started to study the bible. My eyes were open to this new way as it looked right but it felt wrongs because it wasn't a thing I was use to. I had a hard time adjusting to living a godly life. So I hope many can enjoy this piece thank you all. I really do look for feedback on what was good and even things that can be worked on
