lost hope in today

CATEGORY

life

this emptyness inside your soul

is just begging to swollow you whole

each night it's the same dream

brought on by your memories

your drowning in these endless sea's

fluorescent light, shines overhead

and you lie, shaking on a narrow bed

screaming voices, frantic

each suggesting, a different tactic

to save you from yourself

now you feed them full of lies

showing off a smile, that doesn't reach your eyes

you say everythings okay

but you've lost all hope for today

only scars can tell the truth

this emptyness inside your soul

is begging to swollow you whole

your reaching for a better way

but you've lost any hope in today

OTHER POEMS WRITTEN BY karls

pin it on me

I canâ€™t make your decisions
but yours, lead to head on collisions
you dug this hole for yourself
and youâ€™re a danger, to our health
.
dancing around, the caution tape
never seen you, in such ruff shape
just pin the blame on me
and then, youâ€™re off scott free
.
so innocent so unaware
youâ€™re killing me, and itâ€™s not fair
storms like you my dear, are rare

who to see

you saw me dancing, around your living room
donâ€™t all children, grow up way too soon
you saw half of me
not who, Iâ€™ve grown up to be
.
you watched me, circled the drain
and I guess, I went little insain
you saw half of me
not who, I pride myself to be
.
you saw, the the scars on my wrist
and all your expectations, that I missed
you saw, what a foolish daughter, I could be
not, the stronger woman in me
.
you donâ€™t see, the art on my walls
never watched me, get up from the fall
this is the half of me
you never, took the time to see

scarlet

Iâ€™m a scarlet, queen of the garden
what is it, that makes me harden
red lips, red dress
a 50â€™s make-up mess

pretty girl

pretty girls, donâ€™t eat
pretty girls, watch their feet
they hold in tears
built up from years
of being, a pretty girl

pale blue

In this pale blue morning
I can feel, a storm forming
And it all begins
As the clouds roll in
.
I whisper, a silent prayer
That I wonâ€™t be there
To watch
.
In this pale blue morning
I can feel, a storm forming
And the world spins
With her wicked grin
.
I whisper, a silent prayer
That I wonâ€™t be there
To pick up the pieces

apartments

Small apartments
Barely making rent
Cold day, warm drinks
A book, to make the world shrink

heavy

youâ€™re so heavy, heavy in my hands
tell me, are you strong enough to stand
youâ€™re a, heavy soul to carry
with so many, secrets left to bury

I've been bitter

Iâ€™ve been, giving up slowly
next to you, I feel so lonely
I see now, youâ€™ll never, really know me
what happened, to the kiss
that started it all
and, whereâ€™s the man
who made me fall

like before

Youâ€™re lying next to me asleep.
And Iâ€™m wide awake, wondering.
Why you donâ€™t kiss me,like before.
Isnâ€™t that sad babe

next nothing

My breath is heavy, as it leaves my chest
And I know now, Iâ€™ve got next to nothing left
