Array ( [sid] => 72484 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Only You (dont cry) [time] => 2004-11-20 21:48:58 [hometext] => depression + father I can't stand = this [bodytext] => I open my eyes and all I see is black
Nothing ever brightens up
I live in darkness
(Alone)
(Untouched)
Every word I hear is my own.
I'm happy in tranquility
My own pace
(not your's)
My own life
(not your's)
Then morning breaks and I realize
What I had seen was a dream
I'm back with this life.
I'm back with this house, this family
(..this pain)
Everywhere are lights
(too bright)
Everywhere are people
(I dont want to see)
My heart aches constantly
My eyes rimmed with tears
(don't cry)
At home I search for peace
for a place of my own
a place of solitude
(tranquility)
But I find nothing..
same mess..
different day..
Why can't I dream again?
I can't wait for tonight to come
I need to find darkness
my lonesome world
my happy world
(don't cry)
yet it's still only morning
and all I can think about is sleeping
my little tease of peace
my little slice of death
(tranquility)
No school today that's one thing
Maybe my day is looking up
..But no..he's home..
Quit breathing down my neck!
why is he here?
Quit saying those things!
(if you don't leave I will)
Just because you're here
doesnt make you a father
Go back to your home!
(if you don't leave I will)
You know we don't like you
No such thing as 'loving' you
So why don't you just leave?!
I drift to my room
unleash what I have to hold back
All done..
Leave my room with new wounds
(you'll never notice)
Can't take my jacket off
(you'd never even care)
If only I had the strength
...the courage
To push just a little harder
but that was then..
I dont want to die...
no..
just quit hurting..
Stop the feelings that you
(only you) cause..
It's only noon..
still waiting for this day to pass
As you yell more..
I venture to my room..more
always leaving
needing new bandages
(it's all your fault)
If only you knew what you do to me..
(I rescue you by killing me)
You don't deserve it..
15 after 4...almost there..
yet...you fight..more...yell..more..
contradict every thing said..
(why won't you leave?!)
to my room I go...
hours pass....
I don't return..
(don't cry)
I hear you knocking
...but I sit bathing in what you created...
What you led me to do to save you..
(I rescue you by killing me)
...I could've killed you...but..
you're my dad, my father...
and as much as I hate you..
and wish you would die...
I still vaguely love you...
even though you make me cry...

heartwrenching and well written. i never had a father in my life, so i cant know what you are going through, but there will be a time when you will be able to leave if you chose to... and you could coem back whenever you wanted on your own terms.
