It cannot be said enough, our criminal justice system (CJS) is a mess. It wrongfully convicts and accuses. They have a special place waiting for them in hell that will be 'The sentence' they receive

Ready, aim, shoot
They've a plan to sentence and slaughter
crosshead's on you.

Together we watch them recharge
on the way to the court room
ready to hand you the charge

Punishment for a minor offence
in front of you I stand
I'll take the bullet in your defence

And when they're done with their guns
they'll use their limbs for fun

beating a man when he's down
love the way that sounds

then with your case
staring you in the face
they dream, you'll be transfered to the dark place

Human Rights are taken away with a smile
when you stand helplessly
awaiting trial

though innocent, even I've been crucified
now I'm serving time
in the prison cell of life
thanks to their god-awful lies

Once gunned down
only I'll wear my tears for you- my gown
as...
'ashes to ashes'
you're lowered into the ground.

Pain is part of life, and if strong enough through the pain we fight. Sometimes we need to look at life as though dead and sometimes we need to view hate as if we are love because that, we are. Love is within us. So though declare previously I did not, I'm now offering my 'Testimony' in this court of life.

Don’t hate me 

But I did it to hurt you 

I hated her and you knew

you’ve always lived for the thrill

never came clean 

just waited for the news to spill

well, this is my testimony to you

I did it because you hate him and that I knew 

But when non-existent was your respect for me 

My pain I wanted you to feel rather than my tears see

I guess I fell for someone you could never be

A month later, as she lays in my place 

I give you space 

And let my mind race 

Picking at my wounds and further causing myself pain

But I love you 

And there is nothing for you 

I wouldn’t do

To see you smile 

My happiness I chose to exile

for your love I once fought 

But now, it’s for your freedom and possible life with her I fight

I just hope that against you she doesn’t take the stand,

Testify

Because then she will be on the wrong side of my fight 

So close we were 

The finish line was in sight 

But you let go and that’s fine 

Never once did I ask…

Why me?

or

Why now?

I will continue to be your soldier 

I will continue to put my life on the line 

In hope for a change 

Don’t you worry I can handle the pain

I'll be fine promise babe

We have all had a moment where we do something without thinking twice, we dive in before we test the waters if you like and sometimes it feels unreal almost like a 'Late Night Dream', you know the one; the dream that feels like you are living only to wake up in the middle of it all; puzzled.

Late night dreaming 

About poisonous passion

And a touch enough 

to pierce the surface of the skin

Words that once said,

Linger, waiting to be remembered 

or

said again

Eyes softer than pillows

And a voice enough

to render a being unconscious 

And recuperate it again

A touch that can wake a wild fire 

And blow out the flame 

At the same time 

a breath, like a gust of wind on a winters morning

Or a light breeze on a mid-Summers day

A twilight 

As time leans closer and closer into the dark of night 

A door weak enough to let something in 

But behind it, a presence that once felt makes one never want to leave again

A beautiful trap

holding in the palm of its frail hand the tamest wild waters 

Be wary of that late night dream, 

where all, is anything but what it seems 

A liar responds to confrontation with the question "How Did I Lie" answer is simple you opened your mouth and...

I love you

I’ll never hurt you

My one and only 

Forever 

You’re the only one I see 

Live with me 

Stay the night 

Please don’t leave 

Hold my hand 

Hug me 

Be mine 

meet the family 

With you I see a future 

My world 

Amazing 

Perfect 

Beautiful 

She’s just a friend 

Nothing I would rather do than be here with you 

Home 

The laughs 

The smiles 

The pictures

The moments 

The memories 

Its not what it seems 

You didn’t even see anything 

What shit timing

Shall I continue?

A manipulative person lies until you start to believe it when in reality you are 'Not at All Paranoid'

Paranoid, was I?

I was right all along 

you were doing me wrong 

only time I heard the truth, was after you hit the bong

The day after I leave 

through your sleeve your true colours begin to seep 

And with her, you choose to continue to sleep 

It's fine, I’m better now 

But you should really take a bow 

You pulled off an Oscar-winning performance

our life was your song and I love you the chorus 

it's now time never to look back as I walk away in abhorrence

Infidelity in any relationship is hard to deal with. After all the fightin, screaming and deceiving more often than not you will find that you 'have had enough of love'

I’ve been screaming words 

No more lying-it hurts 

told you, I have, ‘I don’t like her’

The arguments; the fights 

I didn’t want them but only they can clear your sight

love you I do, but for your heart, I refuse anymore to fight

To think otherwise, you must be out of your mind 

I fought all I could and yet after all I’ve done 

She has won 

I guess I was just part of the puzzle to your fun

Thank you for the love, 

and the deception of my trust. 

But the time has come to put my foot down; I’ve had enough

I’ll be around in the morning to get my stuff

I may be tough

but I’ve had enough of love

This world may turn on it's own axis but it is anything but predictable. You can go from being someone's world, to lying to the world with the classic "Im Fine"

I cry rivers 

I cry streams 

Though all isn’t as it seems 

A heart of glass, behind a smile- concealed 

once broken never truly heals; 

But you don’t care, let's be real

So.. “I’m fine”- one’s biggest lie

Truth is: than to feel this, I would rather die

Tired of smiling while every inch of me cries 

This hurts like a bullet to an already open wound

But I love you 

So sit here and feel- I do 

But as always ‘I’m fine’

being 'just another girl' in your long line
