Humanity What ever happened to that good old place that I used to know? That place I knew in my childhood where smiles and happiness could easily be seen on the faces of friends and strangers everywhere you would go. What ever happened to the time from where I used to be? A place where families would all sit down together for big breakfast and seven course dinner when we would hold hands around the table bowed our heads and prayed to our almighty God for what we had to eat, they all laughed, joked around talked about school or work and all of the fun times that they had that day and week? What ever happened to those people the you and I used to be where we all cared about each other and helped each other out and it was not just a world that revolves around me? What ever happened to those humans from whence the word humanity actually came? Because with people killing each other over religion, gender, or the color of your skin because if that is what they call "Humanity" then...

The higher you get You need to save yourself It is not to late for you but for me there is nothing you can do, you cannot keep this soul from falling or its heart above that is dying no, I am the captain of my own life so I am going down with my own sinking ship, that is named after me it is called one fucking mess, over turned by monster waves in the oceans of misery and regret pounded hard by the storms of sorrow with guilt, so to those who can still hear me get away, run, or swim its time to save yourselves go ahead abandon this drowning wreak, years of living all alone in the darkness that you know you can never escape with all those voices arguing in my brain, there is never peace in the land of no sun, battles raging day and night, emotions changing it their right, hating everyone you know, waiting for the light that never comes, fighting hard to find your way out just hoping maybe this day you will find your way only to fall faster spinning out of control hitting the ground hard...

Could you still love someone like me? If I told you just how broken  that I am inside could you  still love someone like me?  My heart may not beat quite like it once did back in the past at one time before but I know that I still have a whole lot to give as my soul is still dancing out across the night skies by the light of the moon and all the falling stars as he rides only the ones that are shooting across all of the time as it has already been used and wished upon just hoping that it might lead to the love that it has been wishing for and so desperately needs. I am looking to begin a new chapter in my life that finally starts with a once upon time as we will write a  happily ever after together while being in In love from that day forward forevermore until the sands of time run dry but not necessarily as a husband and a wife but partners in life who share a spark in the heart of each other, mind, ...
