YOU KNOW ME BETTER


You know better
I shall lie through your centuries of darkness
You know I can't stand this 
This is too heavy a burden to my soul

You're running around with my heart 
You know better 
I can't stand it cause you put me down
You make me cry all the time

Dark Angel cries out, I put a spell on you 
Because you're mine for life
You know I love you even if you don't love me
I love you anyhow so I given you dreams

I don't care if you don't want me
I'm yours right now
I will get you too see things my way soon
How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done

I know Moonlight you would never love me 
So I had to take you down and make you do as I please
That was the only way you would even look at me 
But when I start to try to tell you

That's when you have to tell me You would never love me
I couldn't handle that 
Hey... this kind of trouble's only just begun
I tell myself too many times you will so leave my mind
This I do cry If only you would set me free 
Dark Angel get away from me 

Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth like the crying sea
I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind but I will always love you 
This is what I am going too do 

I'm going to put a spell on you
I can still read what you're thinking
I've heard is said too many times
That you'd be better off leavening my kind 
Darkness is the way I love, Pain is all I know 

Moonlight stand up looking at Dark Angel saying
Why can't you see this ship is sinking
Let's go down to the water's edge and cast the spell
To give my heart some rest 

And we can cast away those doubts
Some things are better left unsaid
Dark Angel didn't like the word I said 
His words still turn me inside out

This is the book I never read
These are the words I never said
This is the path I'll never tread
I need too understand why you oh Dark Angel 
Find me to be your darken queen? 

These are the dreams I'll dream instead
This is the joy that's seldom spread
These are the tears...that will never end 
The tears I have shed is the rain he had given in dreams .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the80's, 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery / Judy Emery
