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

I hope it happens, but from last I heard we are at least 2 weeks out before we see anything like rain. Couple of sprinkles maybe next Monday and Tuesday. Keep the dream alive my friend. Hopefully all the rain and flooding around us will refill some of the aquifer

I am much more loving to my kids than my mom and step dad were to me. Rather than them believing they aren't loved I want to make sure they know they are. I appreciate your words my friend :) Thank you

Some of those feelings of being torn between my family came directly from living with my mom then moving out at 16 to go live with my dad. I remember my mom didn't really talk to me til I moved away to college and just the pain and emotional roller coaster those two years really took a lot of out me. I am stronger and I try to share those feelings. It's easy to find those feelings and share... the hope is that people that need to read it find it... people in need of relating to someone thats lived through some rough times. Appreciate your review buddy :)

To read my own words and see how I expressed me in two different phases of life was kind of neat. I am glad you enjoyed it my friend :)
