Love is..
Love is not the prettiest flower
Or the smile on your face
When a near stranger
Become's the very reason you live.
Love is but the ache you get
When they aren't around
When they are no where to be found
Love is knowing,
That every second without them
You are a moment closer
To being lost within your thoughts
Love is waking up everyday
Knowing that you can change
The mistakes you've made
Because without love
We would be consumed by hatred
No more.
You hold my hand
You tell me lies
Oh how I wish,
They were never disguised
I've turned off my pain
Allowed it to take control
I am so exhausted,
From the same old story told
I told you no, but you persisted
I told you no, but you didn't listen
And now my shaking hands
Will drop your heart on the floor
I'll leave the key at the nearest door
I refuse to fight fire with fire
I rather allow myself to get burned
Maybe when your swimming in my ashes
You'll look back and see what my past is...
Drowning
Hold me down
Under this wave of insecurity
Perhaps you didn't think
That I'd be sick of the image's I see
Go ahead and hate me, only because
I refuse to be a part of this fucked up reality
Women are taught to use their bodies
Men are taught you must fight to be strong
I wish we could all just open our minds
To see that life is only what you allow it to be
There is so much wrong with the human race
Yet we allow ourselves to think,
That we are superior to all other beings
Hold me down
Under this cloud of self perception
Looking through a telescope
I wonder what secrets you'll find in my mind
Go ahead and hate me, only because
It has taken me so long to decide
Who I want to be
Who I was hate's who I've become
Because change is inescapable.
Shut up and face life.
Lost among the pain
We are all in vain
Basing our lives off of,
What we can't afford
Instead of being thankful
For the necessities,
That keep us sane
....................................
Please stop crying boy
Cause I'm drowning in your tears
You are so blinded, by your own fears
My intentions may be bigger than I show
Please just walk away and let me know
That you can wade through the unsettled flow
That life unwillingly throws at us
By mistake or by reason
I'm just the lifeboat
Saving the life of the freezing
Not all people are warm hearted
Because not all people
Have been treated with warmth...
