Love Songs & Cds Poem by Gabriel Rodriguez

Broken hearts with each CD,
The radio plays the tunes to the soul,
Everyone is calling but can't reach,
I'm heading to my own funeral

Only after I've attended yours,
You left because of an unknown disease,
You left after your kiss was given to me,
You left for reasons all your own,
You left because you felt trapped in your own soul, trapped without a home

I'm mourning as I'm driving,
Up and down the city,
I'm grieving as I'm dying,
Riding around the city

You didn't die but the feelings did
So I'm mourning you just like this

With each song playing hitting me like a bullet,
In the end each step is taking me closer,
In the end what's the difference,
In the end what's the difference,
this is my repentance

Don't call the police on me
Don't try stopping the car
Don't try saving me
Things are just as they are

Swimming good over living good
Starving soon over eating food
Blood in pools over love so cruel
Leaving you for the funeral

I'm saving you dear,
I'm saving you without fear
Not by screaming,
Not by running,
Not by destroying,
But by dying

With no tears but the true tears
The tears of the soul,
That don't fade over the years

Tears that aren't seen but felt
Tears upon which loss is built
Tears that never touch the air
Tears that were never there

Until you left,
Now all that's left,
Is time...
Time to pay respects

Broken CDs like hearts in the suit
Shattered into a million me's & you's
