A Flower's Essence
Never fall for a flower, so bright and fair,
Without delving deep, to her roots, with care.
For in her depths, a story lies untold,
Of strength and struggle, a tale to unfold
Beneath the surface, where sunlight can't reach,
Her roots entwine, a silent, strong speech.
They drink the darkness, the earth's hidden grace,
And feed her spirit, her vibrant embrace.
So before you fall for a blossom's charm,
Seek out her roots, where her strength will disarm.
Uncover the whispers of soil and rain,
And learn the secrets of her hidden...
Without delving deep, to her roots, with care.
For in her depths, a story lies untold,
Of strength and struggle, a tale to unfold
Beneath the surface, where sunlight can't reach,
Her roots entwine, a silent, strong speech.
They drink the darkness, the earth's hidden grace,
And feed her spirit, her vibrant embrace.
So before you fall for a blossom's charm,
Seek out her roots, where her strength will disarm.
Uncover the whispers of soil and rain,
And learn the secrets of her hidden...

There's Blood on your hands
There's a knife in my heart or maybe my back
I can't really tell which way the attack
I'm bleeding, it's flowing, it's all over my hands
I'm trying to apply pressure so that I can stand
But it's hard to hold the blood and the pain
When all I feel is the betrayal coursing through my veins
It's pouring, it's leaking, I can't stop the hurt
I try to mask it with smiles, hoping maybe these feelings convert.
Standing in my blood as it covers the floor
They just look at me smiling, I can't take anymore
The pain is too much, the cut is...
I can't really tell which way the attack
I'm bleeding, it's flowing, it's all over my hands
I'm trying to apply pressure so that I can stand
But it's hard to hold the blood and the pain
When all I feel is the betrayal coursing through my veins
It's pouring, it's leaking, I can't stop the hurt
I try to mask it with smiles, hoping maybe these feelings convert.
Standing in my blood as it covers the floor
They just look at me smiling, I can't take anymore
The pain is too much, the cut is...

Passion
I went to bed with a kiss written upon my lips.
The warmth of your skin beneath my fingertips.
Your taste engraved upon my tongue.
You breath captured within my lung.
Your hands fixated against my thigh.
Your body pressed firmly against mine.
Your eyes mirroring the love in my own.
Painting a picture of the love we composed.
The warmth of your skin beneath my fingertips.
Your taste engraved upon my tongue.
You breath captured within my lung.
Your hands fixated against my thigh.
Your body pressed firmly against mine.
Your eyes mirroring the love in my own.
Painting a picture of the love we composed.

Seven days until heartache
Seven days from now, it'll be here
A day of heartache, a day of tears
The anniversary of a broken heart
A wound that never truly departs
We should be celebrating, your first year
With cakes and candles, laughter and cheer
But instead, we're left with empty hands
And memories of you, only in our plans
We should be singing, happy birthday songs
But instead, we're left with mournful songs
Of what could have been, what should have been
But fate had a different plan, it seems
We should be blowing out candles, making...
A day of heartache, a day of tears
The anniversary of a broken heart
A wound that never truly departs
We should be celebrating, your first year
With cakes and candles, laughter and cheer
But instead, we're left with empty hands
And memories of you, only in our plans
We should be singing, happy birthday songs
But instead, we're left with mournful songs
Of what could have been, what should have been
But fate had a different plan, it seems
We should be blowing out candles, making...

Soul mates
In the darkness, while the world sleeps;
I close my eyes and I can hear your heartbeat.
Our hearts beat as if one in the same
Playing a song that screams out our name.
Reminding us that though in body we are apart
Our souls are conjoined; sharing the same heart.
Creating a symphony that plays our song.
Remember our separation will not be long
So listen to the rhythm when it speaks our name.
Always remember we are from the same flame.
That bond can't be broken, not with space nor time
Our love was written in the stars over...
I close my eyes and I can hear your heartbeat.
Our hearts beat as if one in the same
Playing a song that screams out our name.
Reminding us that though in body we are apart
Our souls are conjoined; sharing the same heart.
Creating a symphony that plays our song.
Remember our separation will not be long
So listen to the rhythm when it speaks our name.
Always remember we are from the same flame.
That bond can't be broken, not with space nor time
Our love was written in the stars over...

I miss you
I miss you though we never got to meet.
I miss the things we're never going to see.
I miss the laughter I'm never going to hear.
I miss the fun we're never going to share.
I miss never comforting you while you cry.
I miss the tears I'm never going to dry.
I miss the rebellion you're never going to give.
I miss the mistakes you're never going to live.
I miss the goodbye I never got to say.
I miss never tucking you in at the end every day.
I miss the face I'm never going to kiss.
I miss the you I'm always going to miss.
I miss the things we're never going to see.
I miss the laughter I'm never going to hear.
I miss the fun we're never going to share.
I miss never comforting you while you cry.
I miss the tears I'm never going to dry.
I miss the rebellion you're never going to give.
I miss the mistakes you're never going to live.
I miss the goodbye I never got to say.
I miss never tucking you in at the end every day.
I miss the face I'm never going to kiss.
I miss the you I'm always going to miss.

Life after Death
They lie when they say there's life after death.
Because I can hardly muster up my next breath.
I want to cry but will it really matter. As if my tear stained face will make anything better.
There's nothing that will dull the pain I feel.
Nothing will make this un-real.
No apologies will give her back her life.
No hug or kiss will make it alright.
My heart aches with the thought of my lose
But it shatters at the memories she never got.
I riddle my mind with...
Because I can hardly muster up my next breath.
I want to cry but will it really matter. As if my tear stained face will make anything better.
There's nothing that will dull the pain I feel.
Nothing will make this un-real.

No hug or kiss will make it alright.

But it shatters at the memories she never got.

Love you more
Do you ever get lost in your emotions?
And you can physically feel your own devotion.
Your Heart racing at the sight of their face.
Your Blood raging while wrapped in their embrace.
A simple touch that makes you melt.
Completely immersed in feelings never felt.
Desperately wanting to explain how much you care.
But knowing a simply "I love you" just doesn't compare.
Never recognizing your heart was missing.
Until you learn what it is to be living.
An eruption of emotion consuming your soul.
Filling...
And you can physically feel your own devotion.
Your Heart racing at the sight of their face.

Tattered and broken
I'm scared to close my eyes
Scared to see what terror hides behind
The fear, the trauma, my own despair
There's no way to hide from what lies there
I know as soon as my mind drifts away
I will watch as you murder, stab and slay
It's always me at the end of all that death
And I try so hard to avoid my rest.
But there's no escape from what lies beneath
The terror that lurks awaiting me
Waiting to crush what ever peace remains
Dragging my soul across the roughest terrains
Ripping, snagging, tearing to pieces
My soul devoured by my...

Haunted
Stumbling into the darkness, swallowed by the night
All I can hear is my own echoing cries
Fear encompassing every ounce of my being
Frantically looking, but never seeing
What's out there, I cannot tell
All I know is it's where the fears dwell
Trying to escape from what's deep inside
Realizing I can run but can never hide
Hysterically searching for a way out
Finding it's useless to scream or shout
For the darkness seems to mocks my cries
Repeating back to me my own replys
I feel it coming, I know...
All I can hear is my own echoing cries
Fear encompassing every ounce of my being
Frantically looking, but never seeing
What's out there, I cannot tell
All I know is it's where the fears dwell
Trying to escape from what's deep inside
Realizing I can run but can never hide
Hysterically searching for a way out
Finding it's useless to scream or shout
For the darkness seems to mocks my cries
Repeating back to me my own replys
I feel it coming, I know...

Say you still love me
Say you still love me as I do you
Say you still love me but only if it be true
Say you still love me and want me near
Say you still love me and hold me dear
Say you still love me and unbreak my heart
Say you still love me and never want to part
Say you still love me and fix what's broken
Say you still love me and don't leave it unspoken.
Say you still love me and dont speak in code
Say you still love me before I explode
Say you still love me and don't avoid
Say you still love me so I can remember that joy
Say you still love me and...
Say you still love me but only if it be true
Say you still love me and want me near
Say you still love me and hold me dear
Say you still love me and unbreak my heart

Darkness
Have you ever felt lost in the dark?
Like your whole world had been ripped apart?
You wonder around hopelessly looking for the light.
But it's nowhere within your eyes sight.
You stumble, you bumble, you kick, you fight.
You scream, you cuss, you scratch, you bite.
But there's nothing but empty all around.
No peace, no comfort, no joy to be found.
You reach deep into the nothing.
So desperately hoping to find something.
But all you find is everything's gone
There's nothing left to grab upon.
...
