~~~~~~~~ Endless Emotion ~~~~~~~~
How can I stop this pen from bleeding
     when it's all, it seems to know,Â
How do I stop my scars from showing
if through my pen their blood so flows,
How can I stop this pain, from hurting
     if there's so much of it to bare,
How can I give, what's left deep in me
if no other souls, whom wish to share,
My words they flow with such an ease
     much like feathers in the wind,
Though every time, they'll always land
deep inside the pain I'm caught within,
It seems that, from when I was a child
      writing was my dearest friend,
It didnt judge me, and always listened
and it helped me ease, the pain within,
Tho' that same pain it's never stopped
      yet my pen, it served me well,
Helped me express my shattered soul
and made some sense of my own hell,
And tho' my words, may flow w/speed
       and w/wisdom from my pain,
Every word I bleed, comes with a cost
In livin' through that pain, yet all again,
My ink's just somethin' that won't stop
        thus, a never ending course,
What some may see as being blessed
is often just a, hurtful, curse like force,
Within these years, and all their tears
       deep and buried in this soul,
To share them bleeding deep and raw
it's really all that's left for me to show,
All these bleeding, bludgeoned words
       bleedin' out upon your page,
Are from all the years living in silence
that all were trapped, deep in my rage,
What should I do to stop my bleeding
       w/a pen, stuck in this heart,
Will it take my death, to be my means
for all the aching pain, and me to part,
Should I just, sever both these hands
       to stop these words of pain,
Because my bleeding, just won't stop
my pen I hold's, my hearts, main vein,
And though I'd made this very choice
       to share my, darkened pain,
So the others know, they aren't alone
within their own cold, blackened rain,
Is it really worth my endless torment
        does anybody, really care,
Or am I seen as just, the circus freak
within his effing pain, alone to share,
Yeah I could write ten million poems
      would it really mean a thing,
If I hadn't tried to touch and love you
deep within your own, unspoken rain,
And as this pen again starts dripping
       within its neverending flow,
There is something that I wish tell ya'
somethin' that I wish for you to know,
That is, these words of, my own pain
      from behind my eyes of blue,
For all you trapped within a darkness
this pain I've bled, bleeds for you too,
Know w/in your pain you're not alone
      tho' your heart I cannot hold,
Still I can touch 'em, as they're beatin'
and I shall move, your precious souls,
And though I've only got these words
     they're bleeding raw devotion,
They are my pain, that just won't stop
within this deep, ...."Endless Emotion"
