Unwanted Double Date
Another year, the calendar turns,
Still silent, where your laughter learns
To echo in the empty air.
Today, a birthday,oh, the joy you'd share,
A happy day, you're two...bright new start,
But grief still tightly, clenches to my heart.
December eighth, a dreaded double date,
Your birth and your death, a cruel, harsh fate.
A life unborn, a future grim,
A world you never entered in.
No childhood joys, no sunlit days,
Just shadowed years, and the tear-filled haze.
My heart, a bird with broken wings,
Still flutters at the...
Still silent, where your laughter learns
To echo in the empty air.
Today, a birthday,oh, the joy you'd share,
A happy day, you're two...bright new start,
But grief still tightly, clenches to my heart.
December eighth, a dreaded double date,
Your birth and your death, a cruel, harsh fate.
A life unborn, a future grim,
A world you never entered in.
No childhood joys, no sunlit days,
Just shadowed years, and the tear-filled haze.
My heart, a bird with broken wings,

Forest of Hope
The world tipped on its axis,
and shadows danced through the trees,
as whispers turned to echoes,
and the echoes turned to pleas.
A canopy of giants,
with arms that reach and sway,
they shield all my burdens,
but cannot keep at bay,
the fire inside,
the storm brewing near,
where joy and fear collide,
in the turmoil of the year.
Leaves spiral like memories,
caught in currents of despair,
while I sift through their remnants,
searching for what’s fair.
What once felt like forever,
now a fleeting...
and shadows danced through the trees,
as whispers turned to echoes,
and the echoes turned to pleas.
A canopy of giants,
with arms that reach and sway,
they shield all my burdens,
but cannot keep at bay,
the fire inside,
the storm brewing near,
where joy and fear collide,
in the turmoil of the year.
Leaves spiral like memories,
caught in currents of despair,
while I sift through their remnants,
searching for what’s fair.
What once felt like forever,
now a fleeting...

Forgive me
I’m sorry if I can be too much to bear,
A whirlwind of feelings that fill the air.
Each heartbeat a whisper, each tear a refrain,
I pour out my soul like an unending rain.
I care with a heart that knows no retreat,
Yet sometimes I fear I’m too quick to repeat.
The stories of love, of joy, and of pain,
As if I were bound by this sweet, wild strain.
I know that my heart can be heavy and bold,
Like a river that rushes, too passionate to hold.
I’m often caught wondering if I’ve crossed a line,
If giving my heart is a burden, but...
A whirlwind of feelings that fill the air.
Each heartbeat a whisper, each tear a refrain,
I pour out my soul like an unending rain.
I care with a heart that knows no retreat,
Yet sometimes I fear I’m too quick to repeat.
The stories of love, of joy, and of pain,
As if I were bound by this sweet, wild strain.
I know that my heart can be heavy and bold,
Like a river that rushes, too passionate to hold.
I’m often caught wondering if I’ve crossed a line,
If giving my heart is a burden, but...

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

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 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...

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.
Your Blood raging while wrapped in their embrace.
