How the f*** can I explain,
Why I caused you so much pain
Everyone was stealing me
Smoke so thick, I couldn’t see
I saw your lips, but couldn’t hear
I didn’t understand your fear
I felt your eyes pleading with me
But the smoke was thick, I couldn’t see
Trying to clear my mind by day
But at night,
the slime came out to play
I didn’t believe, they were using me
But the smoke was thick, I couldn’t see
Then through the smoke, I heard your voice
‘You’re giving me what?’, ‘A f***ing choice?’
I did not!... Have I been so blind?
I cleared the corridors of my mind
See my tears, they’re drowning me
The smoke was thick, I didn’t see
In my life you’re all that matters
I’ll work hard to mend the tatters
I’ll prove how good our life can be
The smoke has gone,
I’m here, its me!
This is a very powerful poem, reaching for forgiveness and redemption..
Peace, love and light,
Amber
especially the closing lines...
"The smoke has gone,
I'm here, its me!"
and it is as though silence is the echoic messenger
listening...its so utterly sad and empty to feel it...
a very emotional statement & yes those wicked drugs
them monkey weights...
May Love Find Peace & Forgiving Furrows
