I pity those who don't have them
they're your worst enemies
and your best friends
sometimes you hate them
but you always love them
when they're gone
you feel alone
they're not by your side
you feel lost
searching for that love
slowly you learn
to not live next to them
but the love doesn't
die, it doesn't wane
it doesn't fall apart
hearts joined
hearts strong
bound together
bonds unbroken
holding a family together
such an ugly pain
love, beauty slain
started something so beautiful
ended so ugly
killing a life
making strife
was it so good to start?
should it never have been?
were we wrong?
should we have taken a different road
and sang a different song?
have you ever saved someone's life?
stepped up to the plate?
I have
felt the rage,
felt the hate
I saw the fear
in his blue eyes
the way he trembled
his body against the wall
blood on his hands
confusion on his face
blood on the walls
blood painted in pain
my body knew what to say
before I got in the way
my body knew the game to play
