The world gave him an extinction date It seemed so... He bruised Love was never fond of him At least to him so... He bruised Could never really give it back Something inside was always in lack So... He Bruised Fancy dreams of overcoming feats Strong was he He just didn't quite know it himself The past kept slamming him back (!!!!!!Boom!!!!!) So he bruised! Endured mighty blows all while he had to keep trucking The inside lacked So... He bruised Heart was still in pieces As he rattled on and on about his previous passion fruits And.... He bruised Maybe he was looking for A muse Strength Hope Love Anything Though haze was surrounding him Trying to reach towards a new day Looking for acceptance in all the wrong places Displaying rage When all that was needed was patience Feat after feat Surrounded by these things Searching for some common ground Having just the desire to not grow bitter But lacking in actions Wanting to survive for something better Hiding his pain so no one could see But at last- I knew better My dear friend was bruised! He bruised! And ohhhh curious I Desiring always to sit up close and try To see if the bruised could be better in time Sacrifice after sacrifice I learned a dear lesson, my friend He's Bruised Some mishapen- forbidden fruit Yet ... He's Bruised Such a beautiful display of strength and man But still - He bruised!! Long, long before I And there was nothing you or I could do He bruised HIGHER could only make him brighter He's Bruised! Step away Now with just that knowledge Accept that at last.. That ... He's bruised The kind that could never equate with you For healing comes 1st & some other hard lessons too For He's Just Bruised!
And not all sweetie but just a handful are just.....
Bruised!! And to stay would almost be like abandoning you! Simply Because He's Bruised
And I am simply penning you down in memory of you 😏📝 The Bruised!
