Empty Soul
A Poem by AaronFreitas
Originally a song I wrote way back Feb 10, 2008, changed a couple things so I could share. It was written about a specific moment in my life where things weren't good.
Nothing's ever perfect
Nothing's ever fair
I look into these eyes
And see this blank stare
Frayed since my creation
Abandoned from the start
My mother never loved my dad
And it breaks my f*****g heart!
Made to disappoint
Destined to fail
Created for your laughter
Only I could never tell
I am so pathetic
It’s so sad to see
I am just a worthless liar
but that’s what you made of me
That’s why you did it
That’s why you left me empty
Torn between my family
And it’s not sad for you to see
Why me? Why me?
What did I do to deserve this empty destiny?
Why me? Why me?
Take my empty soul and leave me free to be
You gave me life
But left me in this empty hole
So take my life
And my empty soul

Isn't it interesting reading old pieces from a past moment and seeing how it somehow still relates in a different way to what's going on currently? I've had a few pieces do that for me. Do it! That'll be awesome, even at home, it's still brave! :) can't wait to check out your other works... I've been meaning to during the weekends when I'm not brewing.

It's nice though to look back and see how far you've come in life. I actually think I have chords down to do it. Been playing it a little the last couple nights when I'm home alone bored haha. I appreciate your checking out my other pieces... it's actually been a while since I've written anything so hopefully it will happen soon :)

Performed back in the day but I have no idea how it was played on guitar so trying to do it on my own.

I love to write, most my work tends to be on the darker side. I write from my heart and tend not to mess with it too much. I guess sometimes I write and post without focusing on what everyone else w.. more..
