    I remember

    your smile
    your laugh
    your hugs
    your voice
    I remember
    our jokes
    our time
    our moments
    and I miss them so much
    I miss you

    Thank you

    For not filling my soul with your lies
    For finding the key and unlocking some of the chains that bind me
    For sharing your warmth with me in this cold world
    For your joy that shined the path to find my truest smile
    For shielding me from the arrows and blades with you kindness
    For healing some of my bruises with you laugh
    And for showing a bird how to finally fly, even with broken wings.

    Another time

    I wished for happiness once
    I wished for the truth
    for love
    and for freedom
    and I've sang the songs of sadness to the stars
    and yelled the words of anger to the sun
    and shed my tears with the moon
    they kept my secrets, my prayers, my life story
    and they kept my wishes
    they told me I could have them come true
    another time

    Jealousy

    never felt it so strongly till now
    I'm envious of her
    I don't understand why I feel this way
    I don't understand feelings much
    I typically block them out
    is this normal?
    why does it hurt to know that she fell for you?
    I never cared before
    so why now?
    why does it hurt to know I might lose you?
    I never cared before
    why am I so jealous of someone I don't know much about.

    deceiving sun

    It gave false hope and hidden nightmares within its rays
    It gave only lies threw the clouds and left the moon with the sad aftertaste or the truth
    The trees knew the truth yet they smiled back
    The birds still sang their songs even when the sun didn't sing it back
    When did the world prefer a lie?
    When did the moon hold so much sadness even in its most peaceful times?
    When did the sun deceive the dreamer?
    It was when the clouds begged for warmth,
    when they couldn't handle winters truth.

    I never

    I never once made you happy
    not once
    you smile of pity and not pride
    proud is something you'll never feel for me
    I tried, you know
    tried to be what you wanted
    but trying isn't enough is it?
    I never made you proud
    seems to me like I'm a disappointment no matter where I go
    its hard smiling all the time
    hoping you'll give me a real smile back
    its harder pretending everything is fine
    the weight of the world cant compare to the weight of this
    its heavy and cold
    my heart is tired
    shall it rest here for a little?
    I never once wanted or asked to be this way
    I never asked to hurt or to be hurt
    I never asked for pain
    but with love comes pain I suppose

    PAPER TRAIL

    Pages on paper all blank

    Nothing written down

    A thought comes

    But the paper becomes cumbersome

    For the most part, the trash being my file

    All this thinking took a while

    But ideas with all kinds of imaginations

    They are all coming about being illustrations

    Words that knock at the door of the heart receive no answer

    But sentences full of inspiration are welcomed to enter

    They are front and center

    Yet my life is partly on turmoil

    But my feet remain on secrete ground
    Heart and voice are beating loud and clear

    It was drama giving me too much fear

    But I have been directed and knowledge became my understanding

    Yes, I had a paper trail

    But I am destined, and I an guided in not to fail

    ~Winter Nights~

    Winter nights are always the hardest 

    Because they're always the coldest

    That's when I miss you the most 

    Because I imagine you holding me close 

    Whispering to me that I'm enough 

    I'd call this unrequited love 

    But even now I'm still not sure how you feel

    You say things that hint your love hasn't gone away 

    But then you act like I mean nothing more than the dirt below your feet 

    Maybe one of these winter nights

    You will finally be by my side

    Love


    Your love is tender and sweet until I dont give you want you want.

    Your love is screaming and fight making me cry till I cant breath.

    Your love is making me hollow and full of regret, I feel sick.

    But when your gone I feel starved of love, so your love is what feeds my soul.

    Your love is all I know so with a sharp icey breath I whisper, I Need Your Love.

    Wrongs

    A church’s cloth has woolen innocence 
    Leaving man to feel right 
    Adding happiness to its life 
    Only to make blind the reality of time.
