Michael Murphy Poems

these times are hard... I gotta try
think I am down to my last goodbye
this has to change it isn't yesterday
I'm chasing a ghost I will never slay
...

you own your own..you sound alone..
no possessions to call your own..
the thoughts you share that life's unfair..
it rains everyday.. and nobody cares...
...

....there's a girl whos like a diamond in a cold dark world..
more precious than a string of pearls..
and they way that she makes me feel..
feels so damn real...
...

all this blood, all these tears..
all this pain from all these years
all my love all turned to hate
reverse the curse... it's much too late
...

these eyes of mine stare endlessly
into what some might call my fantasies
theoretically speaking I've been on my knees,
begging someone please..take this pain from me
...

The sun is like a soul shining bright into the air
the ones whom lost control has blinded light to those who care
these guns they rip a hole into the night... produces fear
and shuns the hopes and goals and ignites the endless tears
...

I am a child never grown a timid six year old boy..
scared to live, scared to die, scared to ever let it go
all the love is stripped away all the pain is left behind
I self destruct, I never learn, I'll probably grow old alone
...

she blows me away with how she preforms
although she is scared from her pain she still weathers the storms
she inspires my fire unlike any has before
...

In a world that's so jaded
and so complicated
is a girl so amazing and so captivating
...
