There once was a man that stole my life
He did it without ever using a knife That monster stole my innocence from me Stifling who I was meant to be **** For years it hid in the back of my mind I was always looking but could never find What I needed to succeed Forget about his evil deed **** Years it haunted my every dream So much heart ache I wanted to scream But all I did was hold it in I wear my mask with my grin **** When all of that got too much I turned to drugs, booze and such But it never helped my pain All it did was fry my brain **** Finally I sat down and started to write I let go of the hate and all of the fight I put the past where it needed to be Now I can live my life and be free © 2025 The High PoetFeatured Review
