Lament of the Golden Flower
He once was a lord of Gondolin
Strong and mighty as he was fair
Yet few ever noticed what was within
Only the confident could hold his stare.
-
Oh, Golden Flower, you are withered
Even if your air says otherwise
The title "Balrog Slayer" makes you shiver
As you recall the painful memories of your demise.
-
You persevere throughout the ages
And aim your sight towards the future
You always skip through the pages
Banished was the warrior to give way to the scholar.
-
Oh, Golden Flower, you are hurting
No one...
Strong and mighty as he was fair
Yet few ever noticed what was within
Only the confident could hold his stare.
-
Oh, Golden Flower, you are withered
Even if your air says otherwise
The title "Balrog Slayer" makes you shiver
As you recall the painful memories of your demise.
-
You persevere throughout the ages
And aim your sight towards the future
You always skip through the pages
Banished was the warrior to give way to the scholar.
-
Oh, Golden Flower, you are hurting
No one...

Words Hurt
Verse 1
Do you see me as your emotional punching bag?
I remember everything that you’ve ever said
Is it your mission to see me hanged?
Your words play over and over in my head.
-
They’ve cut out a hole in my heart
As you belittle me and wish I was never born
I won’t ever be rid of these scars
I’ve lost all my petals and was left with thorns.
Chorus
Your words hurt me far more than any wound
Only my eyes can see this new bruise
You’ve torn out my roots before I could even bloom
I can’t tell if this is the...

Words I'll never speak
I'll be better
Isolated
Drained
Lonely
Misunderstood
Lack of inspiration
Emotional punching bag
Blackout
Vulnerable
I must fight
I don't belong
What am I?
Trauma
Betrayal
I lost my sense of peace
Get away
I'll be a better person
I won't become bitter
I'll be more cautious
My loyalty won't be easy to gain

Worlds Apart
Deep within me I feel a calling
Something I’ve never felt before
Bit by bit, I sense a fire burning
Of raw passion and all I adore.
Who is the owner of the voice I hear?
Smooth and clear like a cloudless day
I’ve come to treasure it as something I hold dear
If only I could hear him say…
Pure sunlight caresses my skin
And washes away the darkness that envelops me
A loving warmth comforts me from within
This special presence accompanies me in my dreams.
If only I could learn his name
And tell him mine in return ...
Something I’ve never felt before
Bit by bit, I sense a fire burning
Of raw passion and all I adore.
Who is the owner of the voice I hear?
Smooth and clear like a cloudless day
I’ve come to treasure it as something I hold dear
If only I could hear him say…
Pure sunlight caresses my skin
And washes away the darkness that envelops me
A loving warmth comforts me from within
This special presence accompanies me in my dreams.
If only I could learn his name
And tell him mine in return ...

Counting Down the Days
I'm counting down the days until I reach my goal
No longer feeling scattered; instead mature and whole
I look forward to that day where I can finally breathe
And see the look on my mother's face, knowing she's proud of me.
I’m counting down the days: 1, 2, 3, 4
I’ll never settle for less because I deserve more
All these years of hell will soon be behind me
I had to walk through the path of fire to accomplish my dream.
For what it’s worth, I’ve had my perspective changed
I learned the hard way that things don’t stay the same
But...

Crystal Ball
With the first rays of dawn comes new possibilities
And the choice between corruption and integrity
You look up to the stars to read your destiny
Yet all your questions can be answered with a simple reading.
Gather round, expand your senses, behold the crystal ball
It can show the future; whether you’ll rise, or you’ll fall
Don’t be afraid; accept your fate
A single detail can make a dramatic change.
As the light dies out, you’re stuck in uncertainty
Will the universe grant you pain or mercy?

Still Hurts
Vibrant colors flare up in the sky
But I can’t see them, for I’ve become blind
Why am I still fighting? Even I don’t know why
Yet I know I must continue, or I’ll surely die.
Slow down; take one step at a time
I’ve lost my spark, but one day I’ll shine
There’ll be good days and bad; it’s okay to cry
I won’t give up; I’d rather die.
Breathe in deeply, feel the calm wash over me
Breathe out slowly, lose myself to the gentle breeze.
I listen to the music that charges the air
The stories told always warm my soul
My heart...
But I can’t see them, for I’ve become blind
Why am I still fighting? Even I don’t know why
Yet I know I must continue, or I’ll surely die.
Slow down; take one step at a time

There’ll be good days and bad; it’s okay to cry

Breathe out slowly, lose myself to the gentle breeze.
I listen to the music that charges the air
The stories told always warm my soul

Road to the Stars
My time on Earth is coming to an end
I must prepare for my final journey
At last, the opportunity has come for me to transcend
The very bounds of what I once thought was reality
The only thing I’ll miss is you, my friend
But the universe has opened the doors for me, out of mercy
All communication will be cut, but my love and best wishes, I can send
As I travel on the road to the stars, a path sent forth only for the worthy.
I must prepare for my final journey

As I travel on the road to the stars, a path sent forth only for the worthy.

The Silver Lining
Life’s never black and white
There are always shades of grey
There’s no clear distinction between wrong and right
People tend to do things their own way.
People always say to look for the silver lining
Yet how can I with this unbearable pain?
My quality of life was dramatically declining
Why my own father would put me through this, even I can’t explain.
I can’t stand people who talk so easily
Without understanding the actual facts
I yearn for a better life almost dreamily
I had no idea how much of an impact this...
