Song Of My Soul

Sung to: Blowin In The Wind with apologies to the great Bob Dylan.

How many times must a man take a fall, before he calls it a day?
How many times must his heart be broke, before he starts to pay?
And how many lies must he hear in excuse, before his faith is destroyed?

The answer is clear,
It's written on my soul.
The answer is written on my soul.

How many silent nights - everyday?
How many tears of distress?
How many kids to be torn into two?
While the broken and lame pick up all that's left?
The answer my dear is written on my soul
An answer to love i now detest.

I'm a man who tried and failed to survive,
The world that brought him to his knees.
A man not forgiven for his
Weakness for sure
A woman who no longer he could please.

So listen, hear you all to the song of my soul,
A song of a broken mind To heed.

So listen, hear you all to the song of my soul,
A song of a broken mind To heed.
A song of a broken mind To heed.

I am a father of two wonderful girls and a christian, long time sufferer of depression my writing has become my therapy. Some of my writing is faith based, some of it portrays the darkness of depression. I make no apologies for that but pray by using my honesty it might help others experiencing similar turmoil in their lives. May God forever bless you and keep you! Kik me @ merlin1038

Long Year

You know it's been a rough year. Sometimes I want to stop and shout it. Poor myself a stiff drink, I don't want to think about it. Good times come and go, so today I'll have to live without it.

Pain

I'm not talking physical pain. No blood and guts, screams of anguish and blood curdling cries.

You'll Be The First

Sometimes I think, What people will say of me, When I'm long gone, When I'm just a memory. Will someone else say, That I was a mistake to the world.

I Thought I Was Ok

My first really bad day. In such a long while. Tears that roll down. Have washed away my smile. I thought this had passed. Thought it was over. From her intoxication. I thought I was sober.

Sippin' On #Rum & Heartsβ™₯

Chills down my leg that crawl up to my spine. Sippin' on some rum to better pass the time. Good friends with good laughs, Trying to let the memories pass.
