Voice.
No.
My voice is the biggest representation
of who I am.
More than the
words
I write.
More than any
picture
I could ever take.
You hear who I am.
You hear what makes me.
I can't lie with my voice
like I can with the words
I speak.
"I'm fine".
Don't you hear my pain?
Can't you feel the room shake while I scream?
And when I don't say anything,
don't you hear how hollow
I am?
My voice fills me.
My voice is all my passion.
"I love...

Shy Boy
You're a shy boy aren't you?
You keep building up all these walls.
You're a shy boy aren't you,
and you won't let me under your skin.
Well, I'm not trying to hurt you.
I'm only trying to be a friend.
'Cause it must be so lonely being alone,
and it must be so lonely in your head.
Well, Shy Boy, how are you?
Have you ever been in love?
I've heard it feels like flying,
it makes it worth dying,
but it isn't a shy boy's friend.

it makes it worth dying,
but it isn't a shy boy's friend.

Death's First Love
She lives in hell
but sings like an angel.
A curse and a blessing
her pain was natural.
Young and wise,
uncommonly,
but poor crying child
wishes for naivety.
Now as she kisses her blade
she bids thee fare well.
There were so many stories
she had left to tell.
But sorrow upon sorrow
sent her to hell.
A swift fluid movement
across pristine skin.
Come on pain, wash away her sin.
Down the length of her arm
wine pours for the devil
and he drinks like a drunkard
while tainting her soul.
Her...

High Note
You can't hit a high note baby,
but I want you to song me a song.
And I can't hit a low note baby,
But you know for you that I'll try.
And It's funny how when It's raining,
I'll start to feel old inside.
I won't smile, and I won't pray.
I just sit in my room and wish for the music:
To take me away.
But if you hit that high note baby,
I promise to stay by your side.
Yeah, I've been told
music is the key to my soul,
and you've been searching for a key inside.
Yeah, hit that high note baby,
cause Boy,...

I'm happier dead
I watch the colors
swirl around me
as the poison takes control.
I guess life was just too
much for me to handle anymore.
Please, Bury me by a riverbed
and speak all the words
I left unsaid.
Tell the tale of the girl
who was happier dead.
Its such a shame,
I was never to know
what it felt like
to love, to grow.
I guess Life was just too
much for me to handle anymore.
So bury me underneath a tree
cry sweet loving tears for me.
Tell the tale of the girl
who was happier dead.

Don't Worry About Her.
She has no clue where she's going.
She's going whichever way the wind is Blowing.
She's a lost soul.
She has no hope.
You don't have to worry about her at all.
She'll find her way, as she's known to do.
Soon those tears won't be wept for you.
She's a lost soul.
She has no hope.
You don't have to worry about her at all.
Scars on her wrist, once brought her bliss.
Yet, not a single scar will be made for you.
She's a lost soul.
She has no hope.
You don't have to worry about her at all.
She's a lost soul.
She has NO...

Hello
I lay down
on grass evergreen,
and stare at the stars
under the moonlight.
Ponder, ponder, let my mind
wander, drift, travle, learn,
know, excite, wonder,grow.
I look back down to Earth,
Mother Nature.
Her beauty, her pleasure.
Inhale, breathe, intake,
surround, enclose, become.
Peace.
Live.

Stop
Roses, Roses, Petals, fall.
Raindrops, Raindrops, Silver, Freeze.
Time, Time, Moving, Stop.
Is this what they call and illusion?
I hope not.
I feel weightless, and liquified,
drifting through space.
Minds wandering and whispering,
terrible things about the human race.
My eyes no longer see,
my ears dont speak to my mind
either.
I'm drifting, a wanderer.
Time, Time, Moving. Stop.
Raindrops, Raindrops, Silver, Freeze.
Time, Time, Moving, Stop.

In My Dreams
font=Georgia]Fairies dance in my dreams,
impossible as it seems, they laugh
the sound of music,
their feet pound the Transcendent beat,
weaving in and out of their sad laughter.
Such wisdom in simplicity, such joy, such age,
makes my heart yearn to join
and become a part of forever.
Fairies dance in my dreams
with their clothing of sunlight,
their hair of gold, silver, platinum and jade.
But they stop, when sunrises last light
fades.

false promise
You smile at us all, blind us with your heavenly glow.
Making us women fall, head over heel, matter over mind.
You must be pretty evil inside.
Your words twisted and intertwined with poison
manipulate emotions, play all the right cards.
How could someone as young as me not fall
as hard as i did?
knife to wrist, blood splattered on the floor,
its all your fault
you brought this war inside me,
poisoned my mind.

bitter memories
The world was spiraling
Fading,
discoloring as she took her
first sip.
Fateful, destroying her,
it poisoned her.
and ruined the sanctity of her
once oh so innocent mind.
Oh why?
To a child?
addiction??
30 years later
with her liquor in hand
she cant understand love;
shes alone in spirit,
left only with
bitter memories.

Capable of hate
a blank stare,
capable of so much hate.
her eyes:
enigmatic,
emerald moons
but blank.
capable of so much hate!
why blank?
Who took her soul?
was it Satan
(who she refused believence)?
who took her drive?
was it the tears, slowly washing
it away it away as
she cried, sobbed, moaned,
pleaded for another life?
Why did her mother
keep fucking up?
just as things started to go right!
was it because she enjoyed her
daughters pain in those emerald eyes?
well that pain is gone.
its a blank...
