"Because of how I feel"

August 2009

I wish I could tell you everything I want to say, but I can't.I wish you would tell me everything will be okay, but you can't.I wish we could make the weight of the world go away, but we can't.For it would not be fair for those who try. Who struggle and live each day to survive.Some people click and some people don't, Some people love and some people won't.So where do we fit into this big universe?Is it a blessing or is it a curse?No one really knows and there are those that don't really care.And for you and I? We could end up anywhere.Who wants to call the shots and who wants to take control?Or do we work as a team and come together real slow?I don't have all the answers, but I know that before I die. That I don't want to make you hurt, much less want to make you cry.Only you can decide whats best for you.I just want you to be happy and feel loved too.It's hard to hold on, but harder to let goAnd the way you really make me feel, I doubt you'll ever knowWith all of this said, I want you to know, You'll always be in my heart and you'll always have my soul.

"Could''ve Been"

April 2012

We could've had a big house

We could've had a long time

We could've had forever

But now it's just a would've been

Don't know what went wrong

Doesn't really matter now

People change and life moves on

And no point of wondering what should've been

Now you have the big house

Now you have a long time

Now you seem to have forever

And will never know could've been

AssssAaaaaAsdfaffsdfdfaAass

"The One"

June 2012

Nothing can be said or done

To change the way I feel

I tried, you tried

And at first it seemed unreal

We dreamed, we hoped, we prayed

That things would stay the same

But we woke up one day to find

It was all just a game

Life moves quickly and always changes

Not knowing what's to come

you were my world my everything

And for awhile...The One

Now here we are, at the end

Not knowing what to say

Hoping later down the road

We'll be together one day

"Just Friends"

August 2010

There is someone I know who is a stranger to me, Closer than blood but no more than friends. His mind a jigsaw puzzle, his personality, missing piece of me. A laughter that echoes through the trees, a stance you only see among the braves. A charisma I gravitate to. I am intoxicated and captivated by his vitality; his ambiance suffocating me. A chaos of turmoil distracting my existance, no doubt, we are soul mates. Dreading the unknown keeps us from taking the chance of a lifetime, existing only in our dreams. A bond so strong that nhothing can penetrate its force. The quiet world of confusion is locked away within our minds, troubled hearts crying out for one another. Denial comes naturally but so does jealousy. Fear of failure, we've maintained our distance. Safe and secure, we stay...Just Friends.

"The Thought of Fear"

August 2010

The night is calm and cool

Enough light to see ahead

I feel someone following me

"It's nothing" I remember I said

I walked a little further

I sense it close behind

Trailing my constant footsteps

Trying to get into my mind

I come to the end of the road

Fear sweeps over me I think

I stop dead in my tracks

I don't even dare to blink

I wait in the darkness

Too scared to turn around

I know it's there waiting

In the shadows on the ground

I want to run, I want to scream

I want to just go hide

But I stand there like a statue

With my fists to my side

I go to turn to look

Fearing, anticipating, trusting

As I open my eyes to see

It was all just for nothing
