She belonged
So full
Of life and color
Happiness
Surrounded her
Every time
You saw her smile
She would feel you with warmth
And never let you hurt
The girl I met
In the hospital
She was so small
And full of wonder
She was not ordinary
For she did not belong
here on the Earth
It was easy to see
She belonged
With the angels
Not that far away
That is where she belonged
She is with them
Now the girl so sweet
Was an angel
Us below her feet
Of life and color
Happiness
Surrounded her
Every time
You saw her smile
She would feel you with warmth
And never let you hurt
The girl I met
In the hospital
She was so small
And full of wonder
She was not ordinary
For she did not belong
here on the Earth
It was easy to see
She belonged
With the angels
Not that far away
That is where she belonged
She is with them
Now the girl so sweet
Was an angel
Us below her feet

The rose
Fury is the root
Love the soil
Powered by love
Actions of fury
Creating by two opposites
A beauty incomparable
The red flare of love and passion
A thorny stem of fury
Yet it wilts when it dies
Showing love
Nor Fury
Will last forever
Only a lifetime
A beautiful rose indeed
Something not soon forgotten
It's beauty will not last
It will over time
Pale in comparison to a lily
Someday this beauty will die
And contradictions occur
The traces of fury and love
Will still be there
Like blood and ink
Will...

Dear Santa
Dear Santa,
A cure I need
I want one too
No need for childish toys
When I just want to make it through
I need a cure for my cancer
It's the only thing I want
Everyone says your make believe
But you'll prove them wrong
They say I have another month to live
But if they saw that you cured me
They would believe
And a saint you'd truly be
Santa clause can't you bring
This one thing I need
There is nothing I want more then to be
On Christmas Eve with my family
A cure I need
I want one too
No need for childish toys
When I just want to make it through
I need a cure for my cancer
It's the only thing I want
Everyone says your make believe
But you'll prove them wrong
They say I have another month to live
But if they saw that you cured me
They would believe
And a saint you'd truly be
Santa clause can't you bring
This one thing I need
There is nothing I want more then to be
On Christmas Eve with my family

Just most of the people not all the world
Times like these
Always get to me
I can't figure which way is up
Nor find the ground beneath my feet
A lonely girl
Travelled this way
In hopes of regaining
Her lost memories
She hasn't a frame on her mantle piece
That contains a picture of her family
Since the crash she has not spoken
She just seems so broken
No one can understand the pain
Maybe not till it happens to you
She is silent she is still
But she cares to feel
A hug or someone to hold hands
Maybe all she needs to realize
The worlds not...

The girl who doesn't change
I start to talk
They walk away
Like I had
Never been there
It seems
I don't
exist
or matter
I was ignored
I was hurt
They don't see
The emotion
Tears spill
From behind my eyes
Now I have
Tear stained cheeks.
Could they be so cruel
Teenage girls
What is their problem
And hate towards me
I've tried everything
But I refuse
To change myself
For them
They walk away
Like I had
Never been there
It seems
I don't
exist
or matter
I was ignored
I was hurt
They don't see
The emotion
Tears spill
From behind my eyes
Now I have
Tear stained cheeks.
Could they be so cruel
Teenage girls
What is their problem
And hate towards me
I've tried everything
But I refuse
To change myself
For them

This is me
There's a hole
A void
An abyss
In my heart
I yearn
To be
Close to someone
Dear to me
He doesn't see me
I might as well
Not be there
For I don't exist
In his mind
He has prettier girls then I
I can't blame him
For his thinking is right
Who would want me
I'm a freak
A girl with secrets
And a past
No one bothers
To get to know me
If they just said hello
They might understand
Why was I cursed
To look like this
So very
Hideous
I'm a geek
I'm ugly...
A void
An abyss
In my heart
I yearn
To be
Close to someone
Dear to me
He doesn't see me
I might as well
Not be there
For I don't exist
In his mind
He has prettier girls then I
I can't blame him
For his thinking is right
Who would want me

No one bothers

If they just said hello

The wolf predator
A I sat
On the cold ground
The night passed
And I heard a sound
Something was heading
Right towards me
It sounded big
I was letting it come to me
My heart raced
Eyes widen in fear
Fingers tremble
Tears fall
As soon as it gets so near
I pull out a knife
Ready to scalp
And disappear
I was about to attack
When I saw its eyes
A wolf with dark green
Fear filled eyes
His fur was matted
He looked as if he hasn't been fed
He was small for a wolf
So I relaxed
He looks so sad...

The monsters of our mind
The monsters of our mind
Chasing us
Never letting go
The demons of our soul
Capturing us
Taking us hostage
The ghosts of our heart
Are just bits that remain
And shadows of what was
Maybe if we lock ourselves up
They will go away
Or just be confined in our space
It's something we can't escape
The monsters, ghosts, and demons
Of our mind, heart, and soul
Can we ever get out
Can we ever escape
Well the answer is no
Chasing us
Never letting go
The demons of our soul
Capturing us
Taking us hostage
The ghosts of our heart
Are just bits that remain
And shadows of what was
Maybe if we lock ourselves up
They will go away
Or just be confined in our space
It's something we can't escape
The monsters, ghosts, and demons
Of our mind, heart, and soul
Can we ever get out
Can we ever escape
Well the answer is no

I wish I never loved
A vein with blood seeping out
A heart with no life
Maybe this is metaphorical
But this is how I feel
The day is done
Along with the light
You are gone
To where I do not know
I lay in a bed
No sleep will come tonight
As long as your gone
I will be alone
The heart was ripped
Out of my chest
Smashed to the ground
Into pieces
Some say
It is better
To love and loose
Then never love at all
Maybe some
Can stand the pain
Of loosing the only one
They had ever loved
But I love...
A heart with no life
Maybe this is metaphorical
But this is how I feel
The day is done
Along with the light
You are gone
To where I do not know
I lay in a bed
No sleep will come tonight
As long as your gone
I will be alone
The heart was ripped
Out of my chest
Smashed to the ground
Into pieces
Some say
It is better
To love and loose
Then never love at all
Maybe some
Can stand the pain
Of loosing the only one
They had ever loved
But I love...

Corruption
Corruption all around
Never letting us touch the ground
To feel the soft grass
Beneath our feet
Nothing would ever be so sweet.
Look around
All you see are the buildings
Falling down
Beneath your feet
Corruption not letting you feel
You look away
As if it had never been there
Trying to break loose
Of these restricting chains
For that is where you hang
You hang your head
Sweat dripping off
With tear streaked cheeks
Finally you have won
A place to stand tall
No more corruption
It is now...
Never letting us touch the ground
To feel the soft grass
Beneath our feet
Nothing would ever be so sweet.
Look around

My heart
The world has scars
And so do I
As the rain poured
I realized
This had been my home
This is where I hadn't belonged
So many times before
Life had gone so wrong
Then somebody came along
He took me in his arms
Told me everything would be alright
He would give me a place to stay the night
After that I laid
Curled up in a ball
On the soft bed
And then I knew this is where I belonged
After searching
Every which way
I found the man
Who took all the hurt away
My heart was with him
No other...
And so do I
As the rain poured
I realized
This had been my home
This is where I hadn't belonged

Life had gone so wrong

Hopeful eyes
I don't own a mirror
I don't look in a pond
I don't need to see my imperfections
A list is something I have
From many people telling me
That I need to change
Saying that I don't belong
There is no use for you
They spat
Only to see a girl with hopeful eyes
Turn and run
As they sat and laughed
Maybe I have
Many imperfections
That only make up me
The hour is late
The sun is gone
I have not returned
For fear is in my heart
But also in my mind and soul
I couldn't take it
The girl...
