THE SKY IS DARK

The sky is dark and the clouds are black,
I feel a heavy load building on my back.
I can usually tell when something is about to happen,
But not the exact moment, you don't know certainly when.
I can hear the thunder outside, the bolt of lightening,
I can feel in my chest my heart tighening.
That's when I see him red, as fresh as blood,
And the tears start flowing, like a strong flood.
"You're time is up little girl, its over",
I try to hide, run, find cover.
But where can I go when it doesn't matter wether I go or stay,
"Give it up" he says, "it's the end, there is no way."
"Why?" I ask "why must it be today of all days?"
Today or tomorrow, its finished and now u must pay.
He laughs, wake up it was just a dream,
And I made sure it was as sweet as cream.
"Give me more time", I plead, "don't be this mean"
You silly girl, u think infants forever wean?
I can feel him pulling the life from my body,
Can't anyone help me, plz somebody.
I can feel the warmth, love and happiness gushing out,
I don't know how to handle this, how to go about.
"Don't worry", he says, "I wont leave u just like this,"
And so easily throws me the coldest kiss.
I feel it like an icepick, strike my heart,
On a display of some gruesome art.
My eyes lose their glow,
Taken away by those tears that continously flow.
My mouth loses all sense of taste,
My body feels like sticky paste.
You think I will just give and not take?
Why would I do that for whos sake?
'For the sake of love, love that conquers all',
Oh that thing called love, is that why you were standing so tall?
Well look at you now, it has caused you so much pain,
And what from it have you gained?
Yo are left with nothing in this life,
And whatmore, in your heart a knife.
What is this love u talk about?
That feeling that so many ppl think they are way above?
That feeling that is suppose to be as beautiful as a dove?
Could it be love that feeling that makes one alive?
That feeling that makes people think for anything they can strive?
Could it be love?..that feeling of being one?
That feeling that with loneliness u are done?
Well look at you now, a sight for poor eyes,
Yo are a dreamer, you better off just lie down and die.
Dreams are not meant to come true,
Hasn't anyone ever told you that rule?
You played the game and now you lost,
I am the proof, I am here to boast.
Who said love conquers all?
Love is nothing but one big fall.
One day you are up and the next u drown,
I hope from this lesson you have grown.
I leave you with a warning,
Dreams have a strange way of turning.
There is no such thing called love,
There is no such thing as trust.
You fool, in this life you were meant to rust.
I have turned you to crust, you will crumble,
Stop it. I don't want to hear you mummble.
Do you hear me?..never never again,
Will you this thing called love begin.
