Verse 1
Sittin’ up here in this tree
Strummin’ my guitar
It plays on the breeze
Wonderin’ where you might be
And if you are as lonely as me
But I know you’re not
You’re no longer in this life
But I’ll let myself dream one more time

Chorus 1
You’re runnin’ to the front door
I meet you on the porch
You lift me up, and spin me ‘round
You talk sweetly; swear you’ll never leave me
I don’t notice the tears fallin’ down my face
If you were here you’d kiss them away
I know you can’t hear me
But just know, I can’t believe
I...

I folded my love into a train
The train left but I did not catch it in the rain

I folded my smile into a carrier pigeon
Wishing you good luck on the journey

I folded my memories into a lovely melody
And listened to it when I felt lonely on a cloudy day

I folded my tears into a paper crane
Supporting the last decision you made

I folded, and folded
Folding our love
Replacing sadness with happiness

I folded, and folded
Folding the time
The next stop came in a sudden

“love you.”
From her chapped lips in her hospital bed and after 5 long months of brainless blatancy,
She smiled.
She smiled at me with the first smile she had shown since August of last year
and said
“Beautiful.”
My mother is MY definition of beautiful.
And even after life has tried to take her from me time and time again,
despite the crooked scar that runs from the left side of the back of her...

Scars on her body
Rings in her face
Heart like a lion,
with no room for hate

She was flawless to me
With a smile on her lips
Such beautiful eyes
Such deep cuts on her wrists

But she was so beautiful to me
Oh she was so beautiful to me

My beautiful Angel
Now flying so high
Oh my beautiful Angel,
I never wanted to say goodbye

My dearest Angel,
Oh you flew too high
And you're never coming back
No you're never coming back

Long pale hair
Deep mismatched eyes
Such big dreams
Her heart in the...
