It started out smooth And my heart was in free fall When we kissed It was a soft, warm, sweet bliss And any imperfection I saw in you Kept it all feeling new You held my hand, dear Whispered things in my ear You made my orbit shorter, sweetie With the magic of your eyes’ gravity But it was too much, and it was too fast, and it was too far, love And these blurry moments are clearer from above Now when I see your gorgeous eyes My soul is left raw from your lies Your presence is as abrasive As your stance is aggressive Asking for kisses and my gentle touch I gave in to fear, but now it’s become too much You held my

What happened to the silence? It used to be so quiet, But all this noise and This drowning sound Chaos Chaos What happened to fairytales? I used to believe in trust, Then all this fighting- All this crying Cries Cries What happened to my savior? I used to know one dearly, Until time changed us And we were lost Lost Lost What happened to escaping? It used to be the plan, Now is forgotten Dreams of the run Almost Almost What happened to this family? It used to be a home, Yet open your eyes- All you see is lies Lies Lies What happened to your light? I used to watch it at night But it’s only dark now Only ev

This isn’t exceptional harmony This isn’t famous poetry This isn’t a legend’s glory This isn’t a wise man’s story Love is blind It doesn’t fit our plans It doesn’t know You are one of a kind With the brightest of futures Rule your kingdom well You always wanted a princess You wanted a fairytale You claimed you wanted it But now in your castle you are Dreaming of what could have been Dreaming of what would have been Dreaming of what should have been Love at first sight Isn’t real life I’m just another girl Running from a broken home I’m not one you chase I&

  No dawn breaking upon the horizon, Peaceful dreams I wake from calmly, I know only one thought: ‘tis done.   Tearless eyes awaken with truth unbidden, Darkness as a blanket comforts blindly, No dawn breaking upon the horizon,   Thoughts of lovers overshadowed to one, With this waiting over, God is mercy, I know only one thought: ‘tis done.   My acceptance masquerades abrasion, Harshly, shock then tramples, cold and lonely, No dawn breaking upon the horizon,   He’s gone, he’s gone, he’s gone, he’s gone, he’s gone- No! my heart rebels, rejects, oh see- I know only

              The sleepy, sunrise silence of a small, basic bedroom was broken by half whispers. Fast, panicking breathing accompanied a racing pulse. A single tear slipped- no, there goes another. A body rustled. Sheets twisted. A trapped feeling reinforced. Pleas escaped a pair of lips. Mercy was not granted. The past remained unchanged. The dream- no-memory haunted on. The body thrashed. A strangled yell-             Her eyes snapped open while she jerked into a sitting position to reveal a room encased in the morning’s glow

     Despite the freezing, harsh wind, despite the innocent, white snow piling on and around her, despite the cold that invaded her thick coat, she stood in silence. She stared at the flower she had placed over the snowy grave. She had missed the funeral. Alone, she mourned the loss of her childhood friends, but mostly she mourned the loss of her loyal older brother. A single tear slowly trickled down her face, landing at last on the ice encased earth that held his body captive. She looked at the watch on her wrist, realizing she had to leave soon. Staying would be dangerous, especially now that she had no one to watch her back. She gently t

  Paws on the ground pounding, In rhythm with heart pumping, Spirit too light to touch the earth, Joy too strong to not spread mirth, Come lean against my legs and softly pant; Pin your ears back and listen to every rant. Lick my face when tears leave stains; Wag your tail like you feel no pains. Let your pink tongue loll out tiredly to the side; Stay close and loyal despite your energy’s tide. Climb into my lap to make me laugh; Sniff my face to make sure I’m alright. Run and run but always come back to me; Listen and pretend you can see what I see. Sleep on my feet and by my side. Roll on your back for a tummy rub

  Did you know That just three days ago I was thinking just let go Leave it all alone, I can’t go on But now I know The color of your eyes is so Stunning; I can’t breathe at all Just knowing that for you I fall And did you know That just three days ago I could only see behind me And time kept me stumbling But now I know The color of your eyes is so Stunning; I can’t breathe at all Just knowing that for you I fall And did you know That just three days ago I found you at last And my heart beat fast Oh, now I know The color of your eyes is so Stunning; I can’t breathe at all in Just knowing that for

  Humming a different song Thinkin’ ‘bout just how long It’s been since I’ve heard your voice Wish there was a different choice   I need you like the seas need the moon When I see you my heart stutters to a new tune My lungs breathe only gasps like the air is thick as dew I really really like like you   I smile when I think of you This feeling is just so new Your name’s on my lips like stain Taking from my spirit any strain   I need you like the seas need the moon When I see you my heart stutters to a new tune My lungs breathe only gasps like the air is thick as dew I really reall

  I remember that look upon your face And that smile made my heart race Just a little bit, just a little bit faster Then you slowly stepped closer And took me in your arms Gentle but safely strong And my mind was empty of all lies When I looked into your beautiful eyes And the song started playing And we started swaying In the middle of the crowd And I wasn’t scared at all Oh, all these couples around us Were raging with teenaged angst Looking for more on the dance floor And if they couldn’t get it there They would find a little hotel On the long way back to town But we held each other close And then I met your
