Can You Poem by Daniel Richards

How do live a life
Born out of a lie,
Can you tell who I can trust when everyone lies
Can you feel my rust as my heart drips a bleed
Can you see the well of pain inside of me
When they aint no rainbow in the sky
And the stars choose to slyly hide
Would you be and lay with me.

On the cold dark nights im a furnace burning bright
Anger fuels the fire born from an atrocity only I can see
If you could see me the way I do, you’d run and hide now tell the truth
I wish I was a camera sometimes so I can take snapshot of the lying eyes
That surround the very essence of my being.

I’ve fallen but not hit the floor, I’m no longer in free fall
In fact I’ve stopped but with no ladder to climb I’m lost oh
Lost so deep inside

Can you feel the rust
Can see the pain
No then let me recycle and start again
