Smell The Roses
24 February, 2011
Author: tommyg
He woke up one day
And could smell the roses
Smells so distant and faint
Why did his life turn to h*ll?
His choices so unimportant
He's indifferent and alone
In the mirror he goes to battle
Every seconds war
Memories his enemies
His spirit's scar
He found new life
In his words he choose
He's no longer a product
Or something on sale
He is forgiven a million times
Why couldn't he see himself
Driven mad in pain
He scared them all
So he could be with his best friend alone
If they did understand
He wouldn't want them to know
He's a shell of a man
And hiself constantly changing
His love confuses him
So he gets real mad
In a child's prayers for him
An angel appears, But not to him
Something changed
His bad moods bore him
He can be himself without any fear
He can love others on his new levels
Open his soul without
Others shutting him down
