maybe we're the lucky ones
who were exactly right for life
maybe we're the special ones
with our sight not seeing strife.

maybe we're the insignificant ones
with hopeless wonders in our eyes
maybe we're the lonely ones
with the light slowly passing by.

ever so rare and ever so golden
ever so evil and ever so corrupt
every day, humanity will stay
and responsibly, we shall pay.

Pure, innocent as can be
A sweet soul,
Descending from the heavens
With complete control

No storm could shake it
Its feathers stand strong
It swoops mightily down,
Singing a secret song

Light shining all around the figure
Of humility and grace
Light casting itself down
On its beautiful face

Listening to its song,
Looking up to above
The people watched
As they listened to a dove

Difference.

A beautiful thing.
Each day is like this.
Different from the rest.

A beautiful thing.
Each person is like this.
Different from the rest.

A beautiful thing.
Each creature is like this.
Different from the rest.

Uniqueness is beautiful.

Difference.

When you smile,
my whole world stops.

When you smile,
it lights up a room.

When you smile,
you glow exuberantly.

When you’re sad,
it darkens my mood.

When you’re angry,
it makes my blood boil
against whoever
made you angry.

But,
no matter what you do,
you’re still so beautiful.
And so much more
than I could have ever asked for.

When you smile,
my whole world stops
and I smile
right back at you.

Feelings are indescribable.
They are different
for each person.

For me,
everything that makes you happy
also makes me happy.
Because you are
my happiness.

A hand glides
softly against
the melodic keys.

A note rings
throughout the room,
bouncing off the walls
roughly and
without falter.

Energy flows through
the hands and
the rhythm picks up.

Crescendo.

I think about finding you
I think about it every single day
And it kills me to know
That you can move on so easily
That you can find happiness
And that I will just be left in pieces
And I am crushed

Every day
I witness you
Laughing and dancing
When in reality
Nobody knows you at all
And I am crushed

Did those happy smiles
Did the brushing of our hands
Did it mean nothing to you?
I am hurt every day
I am hurt every hour
I am hurt every time
I lay eyes on you
And I am crushed

Although you have pushed me down
I fight to stand up again
For I know
It does not matter how you fall, but rather
It matters how you get back up again
Every day is a struggle
I do not enjoy things I love
And I am crushed

Crushed by the sole of your boot
As if I am nothing more than dirt
Crushed by your hands
As if I am a bothering pest
Crushed by your words
As if I deserve everything that has come my way
And I am crushed

I rise but only to fall
I stand but only to trip
I smile but only to cry
And it all comes back to you
And I am crushed

I am crushed knowing that you know me
You know all my deepest secrets
My darkest times
And still
You have abandoned me
And I am crushed

I want to see your face
I want to smell your scent
I want to hear your voice
I want to feel your presence
I want to touch your skin
I want to
But I cannot

I cannot do these things
You were once a love to me
You once made me think I was a princess
And although I would like to
I cannot go back to you

You have done unspeakable things
You have shushed me
When my voice should have been heard
You have muffled my screams with a pillow
The pillow of lies
You have done more than you know

My whole life
Centered around you
My whole existence
Was for you
Yet still
You have done unspeakable things

I would love to go back to it
To go back to the way things were
But you are a toxic human
Toxic for me
You make me do things
I would never do
And you make me feel things
I would not like to feel

For I am scared of falling
Falling in love
For you have shattered me
You have shattered my being
My existence

Your presence is no more than
An uncomfortable aura
Your touch sends scary shivers
Down my spine
Your smell makes me
Want to spill my guts out
Your voice sends panic
Throughout my body
The sight of you
Is enough
To make me faint

And yet I forgive you
You ask me why
I tell you
I forgive you
Because I know
In some parts of my mind
I still love you
