What`s more powerful than a child`s disappointment?
It shatters the heart that you have failed them
And that everything they were ever proud of you for
Has died and left them feeling lost
...

Take this here
And hold it tight
Never let it go
As if it costs your own life
...

Imagine a place
Where everything is calm and clear
Decisions between wrong and right are simple
And you`d never have a second thought
...

Here with you
I feel at ease
Like my heart is full
And my life is complete
...

Cherish every moment
In your lifetime
Enjoy every detail of it
From it's greatest beauties to a small, meaningless dime
...

Like hands in dried cement
The deepest friendships last forever
Through rain or shine
And change and new beginnings
...

You can call me any name
You can judge me as you wish
Until you finally feel that rush of power
You can cut and slash my heart
...

Have you ever taken the time
To see what was around you?
Taken the opportunity
To gaze at every little detail of your surroundings?
...

Ripped apart
Pulled away
Dragged into numbness
The end of the world she has always known
...

Mirror, mirror
Looking back at me
Is a face of pure wonder
Her eyes are a dark brown
...

Fear ran down my spine as I walked through the dark; gloomy forest
It's mystical, acient trees surrounded me; choking me with terror
I found no calm, no security as I paced
The trees waiting for the perfect opportunity to grab me
...

Tears streaked down my cheek
Soaking my lifeless face
A numb sensation
Pierce through my heart
...

There you stand
Across from me,
I stare, unable to look away from your beauty
You are the thing that holds me here now
...

Running from your fears
Running from your pain
Running from the trouble that keeps you lying awake
Running from the horror
...

this is crazy
who are we fooling?
pretending there's nothing
but feeling something
...

The world is changing
Nothing is the same
Your love is gone with the wind
And my life is less meaningful
...

Holding out
You find yourself sinking
Life is rough
And nothing is going right
...

My heart, no longer pumping me with blood
Is silence, forever with no beats
My skin transforming,
Pale white and ice cold
...

As autumn ends
The leaves fall from the branches
Leaving them bare with no protection
From the snipping bites of winter winds
...

I want to write
The un-writeable things
I want to write
How it feels to live
...
