slipping away
Here it is again Proof that I'm still alive Sharper fears break my skin Strawberry gashes every time There it goes again Darkening the corners of my mind Hiding the anger I had for him And covering all his lies One more pill to bring you back to yesterday One more tear to chase your dreams away One last word to lead your heart astray And you're slowly slipping away Here it is again, deep down The feeling I'm not good enough, for you Breaking to pieces, I shatter to the ground What did you think I'd do?
i'm ready |
cope
when you've tried your best to find the one
to bring you joy and steal the sun.
if the world caves and leaves you broken,
hold this memory of which i've spoken.
i've got a minute and perhaps a lifetime,
to remind you of such a pastime.
when our world could mend the fear
and help each other wipe the tears.
we were the best through the worst of friends,
i'm glad to see it will never end.
even though we've had our days
where the moon didn't hang a certain way.
but through the pool of sorrowed smiles,
together we can walk such miles.
so when you're down and lost all hope,
here's an Angel to help you cope.
i'd forgotten
you came through and put hope back into my life.
i'd forgotten how to feel.
i'd forgotten how to breathe.
i'd forgotten how much i loved you.
remember me
i was the quiet one who never needed a soul. i stepped on little boys' hearts; the kind that were filled with childish passion towards me. i would run and pour my feelings to the ones who cared most.
remember me?
i probably pushed you away or tore down your trust because i was unhappy with myself. i didn't need the world to cry on. i only needed patience. i wore hope.
remember me?
i was the one who threw myself to my knees for you. when i felt i needed to be free, i pleaded for you. i never meant to cause pain. i didn't mean to make you wilt; i was unhappy.
remember me?
yes, remember me when i get strong. where i can find my fear and rip myself apart.
remember me when it's your turn to cry. when i feel invincible and you're all alone.
remember me when i'm there for you. and when i get older and grey, i want you to remember how brave i was for you.
just remember my love, remember me.
untitled
broken lover
twisted fate.
secret lives
at golden gates.
twenty years
with severed hope
sacred words,
they don't know
that the way they love
the way they breathe
make up for the fights
and all they see.
useless tears,
tethered souls,
tainted pain,
takes its toll.
hidden smiles
of a pampered child
all the hurt
is worth their while.
deception
what's the use for a man to lie?
when he says he loves you, then says goodbye.
secret virtue hidden in selfish eyes
if only you could tell me why.
four months gone with the timing of you
you played my love just like a fool.
your mind is set to be with her
with my heart, why did you bother.
in your eyes i'm this girl
who never believes what's in this world.
you've come in and broken my fate
this feeling you neglect is what i hate.
i'm closing my eyes, to wipe the fear
and this lie, i'm holding against you dear.
for i know you'll only be back
to knock my esteem back off its track.
i've got a new you to free my soul,
another promise to make me whole.
and with this breath i'm saying to you,
i'm sorry my love, no friend will do.

cry for me
i'm a beautiful thing
until you get close up.
i'm everything you need
until we break up.
if love could be a burden
i know it will be me.
if time can hide a promise
i know i'd set you free.
i'm a wild one
until i'm in your arms.
the world that seems so heavy
can suddenly do no harm.
tears on my pillow
and a fear in my eyes
i can't find the reason
why i hurt your precious pride.
i've got this promise
to never let you go.
but if i had the words to say
then i would let you know.
you're the world inside my eyes
never to leave me down.
if there's ever a time you need me near
i'll always be around.
i'm a beautiful thing
until i rip your heart
i've always been the one for you
right from the very start
i love the joy you bring to me
each and every day.
still i wish i could hold you now,
but what would i say?
i love you more than ever
this i wish you knew.
i know the world will soon not turn
and leave me a part of you
so if i can't hold onto you
it would kill the rest of me.
if i can't stay where i am
please don't cry for me.
essential
*broken promises and one's fear
cannot be known without her tears
she cries and bleeds for the time before.
she pleads in time when he's at her door.
she loves him like the world and so.
only to see he doesn't know.
if she can take the time to feel.
then tell him her love is real.
she needs you now, she'll do her best.
to take you here and lie at rest.
hold you there and never let go.
i wish i could say i love you so.
i'd kill the world to bring you home.
never leave you there alone.*
accomplished
i'm an angel. i've given my time. i'm your savior. soon we'll be entwined. given the breath, i'd hold you dear. i'll give you me. bring on the fear. i love you now. and forever more. promise me you'll never walk out this door. close your eyes. begin to dream. when you wake. i will be me.
unwanted
i don't know how to make you see.
all you've done to me.
it's really torn me down.
i don't know what to say.
you always get your way
you don't want me around.
vacant
sunlight shines through broken trees.
comfort fills the air of silence so deep.
windblown hair, and frozen smiles light the fiery of desire.
a kiss of passion so full of fear, tells the story when he holds you near.
a dream left broken and a mind of pain can only read her tears that stain.
satan's touch and lighted torch suddenly fall within the storm.
he runs to think with shattered grin and brings the hand he holds with sin.
listen my child at what you feel. he tells you now that nothing's real.
shattered thoughts and vacant eyes, i told you never to say goodbye.
mistaken
twisted fingers of hope remains.|to light the mask within their dain.|quietly sneak upon and about.|wipe away that precious pout.|hold the lies of tethered souls.|fear the never ending holes.|she speaks with pain and riddled tongue.|she holds the life before it's begun.|brew the world and other's too.|tell the spell of that you do.|
never
you've got a voice of fear and hand of stone. still i wish i could stay alone. i say i'm sorry, i know you hear. tell me, my friend, do you still fear? i love you and i'll always stay. i never want us to fade away.
unbreakable
you've been there...though only inside of me..when i lost all
hope..you believed in me...i saw you once..though only in a glimpse...but still
i can't forget...what you told me hence...said you'd always stay...you made it a
promise...never to lead astray...to tend to my wish...since then you've proven
so well...that time is a broken glass...yet always half-filled...the cracks
begin clash...i've been there...through sickness and health...i know i said i
loved you...maybe it's what i felt...but the love back is what i really
need..not to be wilted...not to fight in plead..i felt so stupid..how could i
let you...how come i cried...did you think i was unbreakable...is that why you
lied...you know i gave you love...you know i gave you pain...but does everything
must...all end in heartache?
if you can't
open up to me
for i cannot see through
open up to me
let me find the real you
you gave me love
you gave me all
but i never thought
i'd begin to fall
now i have
and i can't arise
fallen so deep
you know i've tried
pull me up again
show me why i'm here
be there til the end
just hold me near
tell me the words
say i love you
don't let me hurt
i still need you
open up to me
tell me what you feel
open up to me
suddenly, nothing's real
but if you can't
please tell me so
if you won't love me
then let me go
if you could...if you did
if you could take me in your
arms, forever
i will not bother, or weigh you down
if you could hold me there, us be together
i will not falter, i'll stay around
if you could love me with everything
i will not show hate, or push you aside
if you could keep me with the hope you bring
i'll promise you the rest of my life
if you could say we'll never end or break
i will not protest, or blockade my heart
if you could give your fears and your pain
i will not hurt you, or tear you apart
if you could see all you've done for me
i will show you more, and my love will stay
if you could believe i'll never leave
i will hold you and keep you safe
if you did ask to take my hand for life
i would be honest, i'd stay true
if you did place the date and time
i would follow, i'd say i do
but
if we begin to break and start to fall
i'd give my best, i'll never flee
if we couldn't get through, we'd lose it all
i'd try to keep you, try to make you see
that
if you did go, leave my heart torn
i would still cry, not beg you to stay
if you did leave,you'll never mourn
i would still wonder why you'd treat me this way
if you did stop your love for me
could i ask you, would you listen?
if you did not feel the same as me
does my love for you have to end?
9/11
children crying
where could they be?
people dying
it's on tv
beneath the rubble
it's my family
they're in trouble
what happens to me?
firemen come
we need help
pray it done
in God, we knelt
on that day
what a tragedy
all that pain
it's so easy to see
we come together
in a nation of unity
we'll stay forever
in this community
the world went crazy
what do we do?
in all this frenzy
we'll make it through
so take my hand
and may Justice for all
united we stand
divided we fall
