Because i've hurt enough
1. Because I’ve Hurt Enough
Because,
I’ve hurt enough hearts,
I’ve upset enough souls,
And because I’ve seared enough hopes,
I choose to end.
The dreams and arts,
Of painting a life,
Which sails through the days of hope
And reaches neither shore nor land.
Because
I’ve hurt enough
I desire to end the sails
For I have no precise scope,
And I’ve promised nothing fine
But diligence of pains and throbs
So, I’ve choose to end
The journey of blaze,
The art of the hallucination
Which arrives no where,
But sails everywhere.
