The Dream
The dream, so petrifying,
I wake up covered in fear,
There is something that I hear,
The feeling on my feet is electrifying,
I can’t move and it’s terrifying,
All I can do is lay here,
knowing that it is near,
Now my fear is intensifying.
I open my eyes and see something there,
It makes me jump,
It’s something I cannot bare,
I hear something , a thump,
I lay here in despair,
Nothing but a lump.

Don’t let me
There will be times where I will fall, and I won’t want to get up. Instead, I will pretend that the ground is like quicksand dragging me to the earths core. I will imagine that I am nothing but a speck being pulled by the wind. I will believe that I am nothing to make the time go by. Take my hand and pull me up. Tell me that I am worth being saved. That I will one day be able to understand my worth. Have faith in me, because I can’t. Don’t let me sink.

Sinking In
It's midnight
There's no light
Just me and the tingling sensation
I give it much appreciation
My head is swaying back and forth
But then everything goes north
My heart beating fast
My panic is so vast
I close my eyes
I listen to all of the lies
That my head is feeding me
Things that I can see
All the monsters in my head
Makes me feel like I'm dead
The monster is my faults
My self inflicted assaults
My mind is growin tired
I tell it its time that it's fired
I close my eyes and go to sleep
And I...
There's no light

That my head is feeding me
Things that I can see
All the monsters in my head
Makes me feel like I'm dead
The monster is my faults
My self inflicted assaults
My mind is growin tired
I tell it its time that it's fired
I close my eyes and go to sleep

Like The Leaves
My life feels like it withers away,
Like a leaf with nothing but the wind in its way,
Like a leaf I have my cracks too,
Sometimes those that aren't visible to you,
Like a leaf that goes with the sway,
Never withering further away,
Like a leaf that goes from green to brown,
I too can go from happy to a frown,
Like a leaf that flows away,
I too like a warm sunny day,
Like the leaf that seems to fly too high,
I want to wave and say goodbye,
But like a leaf that is tied to its tree,
I too have a tie between my choices and me.
Like a leaf with nothing but the wind in its way,

The Thoughts
The thoughts that sneak into my brain,
Dammit im going insane,
My mind draws pictures that I don't want to see,
But its obeying the inner part of me,
I know that im all fucked up,
The thoughts can be gone but suddenly erupt,
I think im worse than I used to be,
I hate the inner part of me,
My appearance is a sweet little girl,
But in my view im one that deserves to go to hell,
The images keep coming to mind,
I need to set them far behind,
It gets me once and then again,
Eventually I am right in it's hand.

The Devil
Death came fast in which I wish I had known,
To us the after life was never shown,
Our lost souls wish to stay,
But the devils trying to take our withering souls away,
I try to grasp onto what little life I thought I had,
But in an instant I felt the devils grab,
I kick and I kick him away,
He says ill be back soon, maybe today,
I look down and see his imprint on me,
Lord please have mercy on me,
I feel the pain each time I look upon my scar,
Each time it gets a little more hard,
The imprint resembles the temptation and guilt laid...

Mistakes
Tears trail down my face,
As I look at my self in disgrace,
My mindset is far too gone,
I've seem to have waited too long,
Mistakes seem to be all that I know,
Mistakes mistakes I hardly show,
I am one of two sides,
One wants to be good, but the other decides,
One side is really good,
But the other side feels misunderstood,
I cant take peoples false perception,
Because I am far more than they mention,
Im afraid one day my mistakes will show,
Then it will be all people know,
I want to be the one others call good, ...

The Beast
Before me there lies,
A beast, with such ominous eyes,
Showing big sharp teeth,
It growls, shaking the ground beneath,
I flee but I fall,
And I can't seem to crawl,
With my ears,
I hear soft tears,
I manage to turn around,
And I follow your sound,
I find you, and I flee to your side,
Finding a heart deep inside,
I see your mistaken by others eyes,
The way I feel deep inside,
You're much like me I see,
Best friends, we’re meant to be.

My Childish Endeavors
I once could fly
Higher than my image of the sky
I thought of life as a fairytale
But once was a fairytale, became a hell
I thought that I could be anything that I wanted
But now, it leaves me haunted
The world wasn't how I thought it would be
But now, my experienced eyes see
Life were if it were my castle, and I were the princess
But now, that life is useless
Now things are far more different
Now you need everyone's endorsement
As a child things were never perfect
But back then I just lived in the moment
I used to dream...
Higher than my image of the sky
I thought of life as a fairytale

Life were if it were my castle, and I were the princess
But now, that life is useless
Now things are far more different

The Moon
The moon and life are alike
They both have their good and bad days
The light of the moon resembles the good
The darkness of the moon resembles the bad
But it is us that chooses which way to go with what we are given
The moon can be dark, but it turns back to light once again.
They both have their good and bad days
The light of the moon resembles the good
The darkness of the moon resembles the bad
But it is us that chooses which way to go with what we are given
The moon can be dark, but it turns back to light once again.

A Mother's Love
A mothers love can mean so much,
Down to every word and single touch.
When I was younger I never questioned,
The love of which my mom hardly ever mentioned.
As I got older the words slipped away,
Sometimes I wish the words were here to stay.
Sometimes I express my love,
But I'm tired of being pushed away like a bug.
Sometimes she teases me way too much,
But she doesn't realize I hate myself enough.
There are things that my mother has said,
Things that I keep going over and over in my head.
What she said cut me deep,
A pain I...
Down to every word and single touch.
