Nothing is Free.

Never trust
Never cry
Always ache
Never die.

Lose it all
No one cares
Open your eyes
No one's there.

Hold your breath
Take a dive
Your last love
Left you dead inside.

You harm yourself
Hoping someone will see
Bleed your heart dry
They leave you be.

Scream in your sleep
Thrash and cry
Snap awake
And only sigh.

Take a knife
See red
Say goodbye
And now you're dead.

People mourn
You cry
From your cage
Between the sky.


I wrote this both about my friend and myself. I sort of backtracked when I wrote it. Anyway, I'm not much into blabbing about my stuff so post comments and all the jazz.

Bleak, but I can sympathize.

-- I really really liked that part. I can personally relate to that. I enjoyed the whole write though, but especially that part.

I like this bit....this is so - to the point. Nice.
