Unforeseen


Unforeseen
By John M. Lennon


Gun loaded, cocked.
Jail in every thought.
Death in my eyes.
He knows.

Badly beaten, severely bruised
By force from within
His blood spilling on the floor
Splattered on my face.

I took too much
More than even he deserved.
Not wanting to run, hide
Rather to say goodbye.

I watched him lay there
Paying with spilled blood.
I could have taken more
But I already took too much.

This World

This World 

By John M Lennon

The touch of your soft skin
The look as this love began
Memories of you the love I lived within
All but lost as I closed the door to my heart of sin
Now each day is a thought to reach back in
But as the hurt burns to bad I let go again
Wishing for one more day to explain the hurt
But this world cares less for a man that doesn't deserve a friend in the end

Now Replaced


Now Replaced 

By John M Lennon

A love lost, 
You... every thought I wish to be forgot 
And it's as I scream and shout 
Every drop that bleeds out 
Moments without you, I never seem to see through 
That's why this is the final time I will think of you 
The last thing in this world that I will do 
So as I close my eyes 
All I see is you
Feeling like I'm right next to you 
So as the pain fades with the light  
A smile grazes my face and it's every thought of you lost now replaced 
Easeing in to my final resting place

So Much More


So Much More 

By John M Lennon

Countless tears cried 
Countless lies to myself lied 
All why the truth was in your heart and eyes 
I walked by crushing each dream
Never good enough for the day 
As the darkness of the night comforted me in an odd way
And as it got cold I felt more at home
A crushed delusion from before 
You where my world, and a whole lot more 
Everything I lost
But you are worth so much more

Said Goodbye


Said Goodbye

By John M Lennon

An anger inside
Eating away at me with each lie
Each new night brings a battle to my mind
Thinking about you with each rhyme 
If only I would have told you what was on my mind 
Maybe I would not be so tormented as you walked away for all of time
Now it's each day without 
But thoughts of you still leave me with doubt 
And it's you the love I can't live without 
So it's tonight I turned to block the sunlight out 
And as the darkness sets in, it reminds me of this cold heart within 
So as each drop drips to the floor it's a pain I won't feel anymore 
With the next sun to rise there will be no twinkle in my eye 
Because it was last night I said goodbye 

Please


Please 

By John M Lennon

A shot to the heart 
A fear I thought I could live without
But it was every word you would scream and shout 
Things that would suck all this life right out 
Now stirring in my head all the things meant and said 
Pain stricken grieve 
Every word that has brought me to my knees 
All while asking for forgiveness, please 
The last true thing I beg for and plead

Forgetting


Forgetting 

By John M Lennon

Lonely stretched out 
Wyoming
Is where I roam about 
Wide open range 
Traveling down the same old same 
Peaks of white as I stare across the land 
Wind blowing me to where I am 
Now lost where I stand
Hearing your voice... whispering 
Forgetting who I am

That Day


That Day 

By John M Lennon


This world alone
No longer home
Pain for days 
Words I've forgotten, You use to say 
So as one thought leads to the next 
It's in my grave as you throw roses on my chest 
Thinking of life and the moments that there will be next 
But it's without my laughter that our kids will play 
My guiding words and telling you, It will be ok 
All as I walked away 
In the pain I was in 
On that day

Wishing To Call


Wishing To Call

By John M Lennon

A tough time to fall 
Learning how to crawl 
My back against the wall 
Lost in the dismay
Every way I look
Seems to take me the same way 
Lost in the words that use to lead me right 
Every place I fall
With these pictures scattered on the floor 
Places I'm no longer wanting to remember 
When it's only you I wish I could call 

All This Pain


All This Pain
By John M Lennon
Notes I've wrote
The times I could have held you close
Although hurt, I spoke
Running... 
Hanging my head in shame
Only thing to remain
The loss of you
Accompanied by all this pain

Will Begin

By John M Lennon

A mountain to climb 
Every word to rhyme 
Heart broken 
With words I shined
Looking up from this valley I am in 
I see where I must begin 
Each day stepping forward 
But then my time was cut short 
You now look upon me as I rest
Words I am now remembered by
Remembering me at my best 
Knowing it was every day, my life was a test 
I did my best 
But the world beat me too this 
My own end where a new happiness will begin

Crying


Crying
By John M. Lennon
To say goodbye 
With each tear I cry
Wondering why 
Wishing tonight was a lye
All because then you would have never of died
And it would be on your shoulder I could cry

Nothing Left


Nothing Left 
By John M Lennon
The roar of the jets 
Further away I regret 
But it's for you I hold my breath
Because without you I have nothing left

Dreams Away


Dreams Away
By John M Lennon
Walking away with each step today
What more can I say
I lost my words with each tear 
With my dreams washed away
What more could make me stay
Knowing it was you that left me this way
No sorry to fix what you put me through
On this my final day

Losing you


Losing you 
By John M Lennon
A crushing blow 
It's my heart you let go
Now not knowing where to go 
I lay here on the floor
Trying to remember the times before
Because it was then... 
I had you to adore

To Do This


To Do This 

By John M Lennon

A time shared, ages lost 
Wondering what our love finally cost
Sitting, pondering what is right 
We both let go and moved on 
Without each other tonight
Countless days filled with thoughts 
Confused anger with my next 
Now as I stand at the foot of this cliff 
I wonder without you will I ever be able to do this

Weak


Weak
By John M Lennon
Something short and sweet
But without a hook or a beat
So it's here I take a peek
Wishing to land on my feet
But no word can complete
This message I can not speak
As it's a love for you that makes me weak

Forgotten


Forgotten 

By John M Lennon

Every thought and dream without you 
The love I live my life without 
Every word my heart screams and shouts
A tortured mind that bleeds 
Your pillow, lost it scents of secure 
Unwrapped arms, folding with no warmth 
Pushed away forgotten in your day 
Alone I walk my life this way 
Trying to be forgotten the rest of my days

The Rest

The Rest 

By John M Lennon

A prayer echoed 
A warmth cried
Thoughts of you on this lone night  
Feeling the grace of gods hands holding me tight 
I let go tonight 
Every thought of our cherished love 
Every moment we shared kissed and hugged 
One never as sweet as the next 
And now it's at heavens gate I wait for the rest

Her Grace


Her Grace 

By John M Lennon

With grace and a smile 
Savoring the last few moments of life 
Huddled around held tight with each prayer, comforts of life 
All before saying goodnight
But to never let go, memories of years of love and warmth that let us know 
She was an angel that walked among us
And will now forever look over us

My Warmth


My Warmth 

By John M Lennon

Step by step among you 
Looking down as you pray 
Words you are left without hearing from my lips
But as you remember yesteryears, I'm never that far away 
Gone in the peace of the night 
Loved ones held and gathered tight 
The lord welcomed me with his guiding light 
So as I am remembered hold each other tight 
And embrace the warmth you felt from my life

Tears I Cry

Tears I Cry 
By John M Lennon
With each tear I cry 
You question me as a man
And I ask why
Because I can feel the pain of a day
Or I see what I lost that day
Knowing it's for you today
But with more then my tears can say 
It's for you I pray
Hoping one day
You will see that it is ok

Anymore

Anymore 
By John M Lennon
The last thing to know 
It's the loss of your love as I let go
But it's every moment that I show
The pain from which I grow
Now the darkness of the floor
Just past the barrier of this door
Because I now know you don't want me anymore

Today

Today 
By John M Lennon
Wish and pray 
Something more today
But to only know yesterday
It's tomorrow that's to far away
Now it's here I lay 
Seeing there's nothing more to say
Because I threw my whole life away
Trying to be ahead of myself today

To Face

To Face 
By John M Lennon 
It's from every moment that we are made
so it's from every second we take
But now as I break 
I see what's left on my plate
All the things I never
Wanted to face

Roads Of Life

Roads Of Life 
By John M Lennon
Traveling the roads of life
Wondering around which bend will their be a fight
But I have learned to navigate this world just right
Till I ended up in your arms that night
Now it's for you I fall each night
Even though I am in darkness you are my light
That's why I wish to hold you tight
Each and every night 
For the rest of my life

Should Have Been

Should Have Been 
By John M Lennon
With every tear shed 
Something more unsaid
Off alone in bed
With my pillow taking up your side instead
Alive but wishing I was dead
Because it's you I lost
Now with dread 
I bleed out what should have been said

These Wishes

These Wishes 
By John M Lennon
Words of gold 
Sitting here getting old 
As my heart turns cold
With the loss of you I fold
So without your love filled with hugs and kisses 
It's for forgiveness with each of these wishes

The Truth

The Truth 

By John M Lennon

Words of anger, turned to pain 
Heart broken as you spoke 
Every word seems the same 
Crying tears of loss 
Restless, hopeless, sick 
Than push came to shove 
Seeing the degree of your love 
I finally walked away 
Tell the story your way 
I know the truth of the day 

Who Am I

Who Am I

By John M Lennon

Defining who I am
As it's right here I stand
But you never see a man
Because you think you already know
Who I am


A Real Man To Me

A Real Man To Me
By John M Lennon
It's you I face today
But without a thanks I walked away
So it's today I want to say
Thanks in every way
Because you helped make me who I am today
I just wish I would have let you be there every day
Because then I could have been a better me today

There

There 

By John M Lennon

A lone memory to bare 
You the last comfort I remember having here
Alone working it out tonight 
A needing want for your embrace 
Every step forward is that much harder to take 
Pushing forward I bare a loss of everything for which I use to care 
All as you are no longer…
There 

Given To Me

Given To Me 

By John M Lennon

Words I write
Feelings I fight 
Rhymes as I say goodnight 
Tucking you in like I wish my dad could have each night
Now it's a thanks as it's from the pain from which I write
Held tight these demons now claw at me to feed the fright 
Feelings of loss but unable to say goodnight 
As it is you that mended my heart with each word as you held me tight
Now it's for our children I show the light 
To never see the demons daddy use to fight 
So with you and my girls 
I praise the good lord
Smiling on me in my darkest night 
And giving me you the angel of my life

Missed

Missed 

By John M Lennon

A strength to regain
The last time I heard you say my name
Now it's every tear that falls 
I remember you the last person I can call 
Missing more then it all 
It's you I miss, because you were my all
