OVERDOSEA Poem by Monique JacksonSometimes Life Is Too MuchOverloading A borderline explosion Time slowly descending Down to the point of no existence Looking down to watch myself die Feeling my heart rate relaxing Dying is the best feeling I ever felt Cause the world is my enemy
Wanting to go back and erase All the pains from every face I hate myself for letting you in But I love myself for making it end I don't have memories I have never ending scars Constant reminders And a past that won't expire
I can't sleep at night Seeing your face Feeling your touch Damn it makes me wanna throw up It's crazy cause I was only 4 And you felt the need to take me through years of more I guess blood really is thicker than water!!! It's because of you my thinking process is so screwed You're the reason why I don't trust men or their intentions too Innocence, Innocence, Innocence Something I'll never have again
Oh and do not even get me started on you! Even knowing my past The crazy things I been through You took it upon yourself to re-create what he did too! Forget that! You took it to a whole different level of disrespect Guess you forgot that's our daughter we're lying next too The crying, the screaming, the no's you ignored the hell out of me Such a selfish b*****d to take what you didn't own Telling me I love you throughout the whole process What dysfunctional level of love do you call that? Cause when you had it you couldn't keep it! Had the nerve to be mad cause I killed the memory of what you'd done! You must have been straight trippin if you thought I would birth that son A continuous reminder growing inside of me It wasn't his fault but I had to keep my sanity Better yet didn't I already just birth our baby?
A part of me died again that day That's when I realized I was birthed for pain Pain from illnesses Pain from relationships Pain from those who are suppose to protect you But all they did was steal your innocence from you Family oriented? For what reason should this be? Family is the one who started this whole thing! I don't trust I stop believing in love Life is a fantasy of broken dreams And until someone shows me different There will be a continual overdose on my heart!!! © 2008 Monique Jackson |
