Little by little I dropped my mask
Hoping and praying someone would do the task
As the days go by
No one passes through as time shall fly
...

It's everywhere.
Hidden in the shadows,
Behind the cracks in my heart,
In the deepest, darkest part of my soul.
...

I am from tongue burning hot early morning coffee, sleepy inside jokes from dad and
            "when I catch you I'm gonna eat you"
from childhood play fights knocking out each others teeth to Uno card games where no one wants
to lose
...

Pain
a word most of us know,
a world few of us live in.
The ability to make people feel
...

What is love
When your backs against the wall?
What is love
When you're set up to fall?
...

You've kicked me to the dirt
Just pushed me aside
Like a fish out of water
You've left me out to dry
...

I leave the light, that holds me tight.
Don't know how I sleep at night,
but I must keep going,
keep butting up a fight.
...

There once was a girl so small, so frail,
Who couldn't see the world for what it truly was
As if her eyes were covered by a veil
Unable to see its beauty, unable to see its flaws.
...

A horror descending
Of two people pretending
And their 'love' forever bending
Never again mending
...

When the night is right
And the stars shine bright
She will appear
And bring upon fear
...

If we die
Do we take that leap?
Do we know when to fly
Or do we sit and weep
...

Falling down, down, down
Deep into the dark abyss
My heart chained tight
Never knowing true bliss
...

This house is a broken home
The only thing like home I've ever known
I've never felt more alone
Might as well be on my own
...

Your words, like a bullet
They fire without mercy
Piercing my heart
Leaving me in agony
...

Your lips against mine
Our hands as we touched each other
Sent tingles all through my spine
My split second lover
...

There is a key, only one key
It has the power to set me free
It has the power to heal my wounds
It will Only appear every few moons
...

Ever wondered what it would be like to live upon a star
Where no one knows your story
No one knows where or who you are
If you lived upon a star
...
