A Glorious Dawn.
Perspective is a vexing beast, / With a million eyes, and none. / When nights were long, and wills were weak,

Bad Returns.
I'm an investor, and a Fool. / I didn't just lose faith in your love, for I devoted a part of myself to loving you. / I fear this part of me is lost forever,

Broken
There was a time when idolized the tortured artist. / I now realise that there is a price that must be paid for this new insight into my soul. / I'm no longer equipped with the tools to look after myself.

Selfish.
When reading through previous works, it is obvious from the number of times i refer to myself, that i am selfish. I'm sorry for seeing things so one dimensionally. I wish you health, and a long fulfilling life, filled with Joy and Love. / Most of all, if you read this, i just want you to know that i'm sorry for everything. / I wish you all the happiness and luck in the world. God knows, and so do i, that you deserve it.

A waste of Time.
I looked into Pandora's box, and guess what, i didn't like what i saw. / I saw someone i care about, reeling, and throwing herself into the arms of men who care for nothing but sex. / You never said what you wanted to say to me, and you still don't, Confusion turns to Anger and now my name is the dirt you walk on. Have you no idea, that the worst thing that could happen to my soul right now, would be for you to say "i've changed my mind".

Almond Eyes.
Entering the room, sharing the tentative first kiss of the day, / Your lips beckon me closer, and as i sit i see forked lightening behind your eyes. / You are a storm, waiting to be unleashed,

Sandbox
I'm living in a sandbox, / As i walk and talk, i watch the wind make change to my world, / Painful, awkward change.

Purify
To wash away the anguish, / Like God's own rain on my skin, / Your touch cures me,
