all your daughtersA Poem by Jay Baileythe daughters of eve will bring ruin to the sons of adam
the air gets cold again
yea doesn't that figure right when you left me and all the joy got sucked out of the world where does anyone go from here how do you make yourself whole i die a little more each time one more stitch torn from the lining of my soul all my clothes still smell like you i still feel the space you left you lose track of the days theres a shallow in your breath why do i look for my wife in every warm pair of eyes she's never coming for me the fantasy is a lie it makes you want to just give up and yea, maybe i have it feels like i cant take anymore one more hit and im gone im so tired of living the truth when everyone wants the lie and the last person i trusted cant even look me in the eye i have so much to give but no one seems to want it and another year goes by god, why do i try? so i try to live my life from an empty place getting things that twinge my heart paraded in front of my face and everyone just keeps on changing while i still remain the same sometimes i feel like lm stuck in time watching the people i love carried away and i cant bring myself to settle for less just cause i don't want to be alone we construct ideas in our minds that make other people feel like home and if you're out there i need you now, more than ever theres no such thing anymore as forever and somebody else can do it better when all that you hope for and all that you love is all made of cardboard and isn't enough nothing holds substance, its all an illusion were planning our lives under one big delusion theres nothing out there, it'll never feel right when i lay my head down, im alone at night go back to your houses, go dig your graves because working and slavery are one in the same you'll never reach the top with love in your heart your damned if you stop, and damned if you start life isn't what you make, life is pointless and bleak life is crawling on your knees for miles to try to get some sleep this is all that there is and its going down the drain so put a bullet in that gun and point it right at my brain put me out of my misery, im broken and lame im a horse thats thrown a shoe, im a face without a name every man dies, and looks pathetic when he does it the caskets just a courtesy, the worms will burrow through it oh my pathetic little words, watch a crippled man cry i never had a happy ending, and i never said goodbye you fought for it tooth and nail and hold it like a crown on your throne of nothing, with no one around then your friends start to worry, everyone asks if you're ok but i tell them 'you wont miss us, we're the parts you throw away and id do it all again for one flash of those pretty eyes ask me to do it all again lets get it right this time and i cant even sleep anymore and i cant even sleep anymore and i don't know how else to make you understand all i ever wanted was the right to hold your hand yea im a mess right now, but i'll get better for you myself is not a reason, all of this for you you have my heart © 2016 Jay BaileyAuthor's Note
