Nothing At All
Always Ally Mar 2014
I'm not the brightest star in the sky
I'm not the rose in a field of daisies
I'm not the rainbow after a storm

I'm the dark cloud in the sky of blue
I'm the person you'll soon forget
I'm the cold preventing you from being warm

I used to be a lot of things
Now I'm nothing at all

Two Against the World
Always Ally Mar 2014
I realized that maybe
Just maybe all these years
I was hiding behind accusations
And immortal fears

I'm tainted like our love
But yet I keep you near
We're bad for each other
At least that's what I hear

Who should I blame
Or will the blame disappear
Same old reasons
Just another year

So the world is cruel
So are you and me
But at least I'm not alone
I have you, my dear &
That's more than I'll ever need

Those We Keep Close
Always Ally Nov 2013
The most unkindful cuts
Comes from those the closest to our hearts
They know exactly where to hurt you
And usually don't regret in doing so

Who Would I Be?
Always Ally Nov 2013
Who would I be if cancer had not affected me
Would I have different hair
Would I be a different person
Would I be normal
Would I like that person
no
This is who I am now
It's who I've always been
A little bit stronger than then
I'd be me either way
I'm different in a good way
It's a part of me in a way I can't describe
I'm just glad I survived
I used to think about this stuff a lot when I was younger. I had childhood cancer, and I urge you to donate to local hospitals and research labs to find the cure. Young kids are falling to this illness everyday and it's something no child should have to go through. Donate teddy bears to let them know they're not alone.

Strong
Always Ally Nov 2013
I want to be called strong
Not beautiful, not smart
Strong
Not physically, but mentally
I could get along as long as I'm strong

I want to be strong
Maybe as I had been before my illness
Maybe as I am after

I know I am strong
I have been, and always will be
I am strong even as I am weak
I am strong even in my last week

The World Is A Scary Place
Always Ally Nov 2013
I wanna help you
I wanna hold you tight
I want to whisper it'll be alright
If it'd help you sleep at night
Even if I don't believe it's true
Don't let the future scare you
Always Ally Nov 2013
How are you supposed to let go of the one thing in your life that is okay
How do you tell yourself to move away
Tell yourself to move on and let go
From everything you have and everything you know
Nov 2013 · 270
What do you do?
Always Ally Nov 2013
What do you do when you see no point
When there is only the dull lifeless fill of your sorrows

Future Lover
Always Ally Nov 2013
There's someone for everyone
Is that true
I've spent lonely days
Looking for you
Where are you now
Where will you go
What stories will you let me know
Tell me them one day
Share yourself with me
I'll be here
Waiting

I Love You?
Always Ally Nov 2013
I love you
I love you not
Don't love you at all
Love you a lot
Think of you
You're my every thought
What's your name
I forgot

Pale Light
Always Ally Aug 2013
The pale light of morning
The pale blue in your eyes
The curve of your lips when you smile
The curve of your waist meeting your thighs
The way you love
So much and then not at all
Still wandering around
Waiting for the fall
In the pale light today
You come to call
In the pale light today you feel it all

Maybe
Always Ally Jan 2013
Maybe it's luck
Maybe it's a curse
I can't tell
If it's for the better or worse

Living for the First Time
Always Ally Jan 2013
Maybe I was tired
Of everything
Everyone
I could feel the cold
But see the sun
I watched how life continued around me
And how quickly it all passed by
I ran to my loved ones
And was glad
They were in my life
It took a while
For me to realize
But I woke up
And began living
For the first time

The Night is Alive
Always Ally Nov 2012
A
Single light
In the sky at night
Shining and leading the way
Twinkling in the eyes of the future, and the past
Waiting on a change that might never happen or never last
Bringing people closer than ever before
To a new life and a new world
Measuring the distance
Of hard work and long days
The night is alive
With stars of love
Hope and
Faith

I'll Be Okay
Always Ally Nov 2012
Don't say I haven't experienced life
Because of my age
As far as I'm concerned
I've been living every year of my life, every single day

Don't tell what to think
I have a mind of my own
I learn of these life lessons
Once I'm grown

Don't tell what I'm doing wrong
Just what I'm doing right
I'll make it through
The night

Don't leave me before I ask you to
I might need your help someday
To be honest, to true
Until then, we'll go our separate ways
Just know that I'll be okay.

Love At First Sight
Always Ally Nov 2012
A single glance
That's all it took
Fallen deeply
With just one look

Your blue eyes
More a turquoise sea
Or how I wish
You were with me

Your dark curly hair
And full lips
What I'd give
For just one kiss

And if we should ever meet again
I wouldn't hesitate
To walk up to you
And ask you on a date.

Come Home
Always Ally Nov 2012
You pick up your suitcase
Looking for new places to go
Something stops you
A whisper
Come home, come home

You swallow your fear
And hope for the best
Knowing this is what you wanted
Come home, come home

Ignore the whisper
You tell yourself
But what if you shouldn't
Come home, come home

Grab a little keepsake and place it with a note
In the package ready to send
By your picture
Come home, come home

You can't go home
You just can't
You left for the better
Come home, come home

Think of your life now
The great people you know
But you think of all the great things you left
Come home, come home

Years pass
You take a right onto a pebble path
You've done it at last
*You're home, You're home

Pulling Stars

Our love
Pulled down the stars
Placed some in our eyes
Placed some in our hearts

Give Me A Reason
Always Ally Nov 2012
Give me a reason to love you
From every little thing that you do
Whisper my name
Whisper your love
Give a reason to love
You

May it be the way you see things
May it be that way you wink
Only at me
Calling me your baby

Just one reason is good enough

Give me a reason to love you
From every little thing that you do
Whisper my name
Whisper your love
Give a reason to love
You

The way you leave me notes
The way you try to hide it when you gloat
When you wrap your arms around me
At night
Keeping me safe
Making everything alright

Just one reason is good enough

Give me a reason to love you
From every little thing that you do
Whisper my name
Whisper your love
Give a reason to love
You

The way you kiss me under the moonlight
The way you always miss me
And tell me I'm right
I don't think I'll ever
Let you go
But you need
To know

Just one reason is good enough

Give me a reason to love you
From every little thing that you do
Whisper my name
Whisper your love
Give a reason to love
You

You gave me a million reasons to love you
And now I think
I do.

A Simple Sunday
Always Ally Nov 2012
Morning sunlight lighting the dark hardwood floors
Pages being turned and voices no louder than a whisper
People shuffling in and out the doors
The rain coming in at last
Shifting the clouds
Now to overcast
Watching silently just barely a glance
Observing life as it is
Hoping for the chance
To feel something more
Become something better
Moods always changing
According to the weather
I sip the burn of this morning roast
Nibble my eggs
Crunch on my toast
People in the park sway on the swings
Probably thinking
Of such trivial things
Man on the corner of the street
Checking the time
He's got somewhere to be
Getting back to the daily grind
A tearful woman sitting on the bench
Crying her heart out
From the guy who called her a *****
Life appears all around us
We choose what to ignore
The sick, the healthy
The rich, the poor.

The Love That Doesn't Last
Always Ally Nov 2012
Don't convince me to stay
When I'm already gone
I loved you then
But not for long

It was good then
But as the saying goes
All good things come to an end
Or so I suppose

I'm sorry
But I had to leave
I'm sorry
Please, forgive me.

A Little Too Late
Always Ally Nov 2012
It a little too late now
She's already gone
No one was there
When things went wrong

She did it to herself
It was only a matter of time
She didn't know that
She was one of a kind

She didn't know that she was loved
She felt alone
Unwanted
Not at home

She didn't speak out
Just out of fear
She wouldn't reach out
She thought no one would hear

She was told I love you
A little too late
She was told you're worth it
A little too late

She didn't know it wasn't too late
So she did it anyway
She didn't know if anyone would care

She wanted to end the pain
She didn't know about how much she would cause
To everyone around her
To everyone she loved

It's a little too late now
And the damage is done
It's getting late now
You sit at her grave to watch the setting sun

Always thinking of her terrible fate
Always thinking about how you were
A little too late.

Your Everything
Always Ally Nov 2012
Your laughter
Is like sunshine
It warms me up inside
Make me feel like everything's alright

Your eyes
Are forgiving
Sparkle like stars
Are full of excitement

Your hands
Bring warmth to mine
Wipe away my tears
Are soft like silk

Your heart
Is as wide as the sky
Is loving
Is Mine, just as much as mine is yours

I love you, all of you
Your anything
Your everything.

Dance With Me
Always Ally Nov 2012
You're across the room
You're sweet perfume

My nervous mind
In a crowded room, you're hard to find

The music's loud
There's a dressed up crowd

Awkward dancing
And nervous laughing

It's so simple
It's so easy

Just one question
Will you dance with me?

Goodbye
Always Ally Nov 2012
Goodbye
It's time for me to let you go
Goodbye
For I loved you so
Goodbye
Friend, that I knew
Goodbye
Friend, I'll never forget you
Goodbye
Forever
Goodbye
I love you

This Relationship
Always Ally Nov 2012
I love
Loving you
I hate
Hating you
I want to be
Wanting you
But things have change
Life got hard
But you'll always be in my heart.

Old Friends
Always Ally Nov 2012
I've known you forever
But now your eyes seem cold
Unforgiving
If truth be told

We've grown apart
We're different now
We'd apologize
If words would allow

Keep in touch we had said
We no longer talk instead

A sympathetic smile
And maybe a wave
Maybe, just maybe we'll be friends again
Someday.
Nov 2012 · 679
Right Now
Always Ally Nov 2012
Laugh right now
Smile right now
For no reason
But simply that you're here
You're alive
You're one person
With the potential to change the world
Right now, things are changing
But you are still you.

This Tree
Always Ally Nov 2012
This tree
Is a first kiss
A wedding
A first house
A first child
A first Christmas together

This tree
Is our tree
Of our lives
So lets's nourish it and help it grow.

It's New
Always Ally Nov 2012
It's new
But
It seems right

The way we hold hands
How you hold me tight

We just met
But you know me so well
Whenever I'm upset
You can tell

You'll buy me roses
My favorite kind
I didn't even tell you
You'll say that you read my mind

It's new
But now we've grown old
Everyday is new with you
Or so you've been told

I hold your hand
As if we just met
The love still there
But better yet.

The Words
Always Ally Nov 2012
The words flow through me
Like a river stream
Passing over pebbles
Leading me to my next dream

Past a meadow
With tall flowing grass
Wind in trees
At peace, at last

The sun warming the top of my skin
Filling me with sunshine
All from within

The words remind me
All of life
Can be full of happiness
Or great strife

So I'll remember at the darkest of times
To be glad of what I have
All that's mine

While I could be complaining about life
Someone is struggling for theirs
I want to let them know
Somebody in this world cares

The words can help
The words can hurt
Help you feel safe
Or keep you alert

Words are just words
But can mean so much.
Always Ally Nov 2012
I was alone
Young in age
Filled with sadness
Filled with rage

Tried to speak out
But no one heard
Not a whisper
Not one single word

Got used to depression
A familiar friend
There always
Until the end

I didn't need anything, anyone
I did everything on my own
I got used to the cold
I got used to being alone

The girl with no future
The girl with no path
The girl angry with the world
Full of wrath

They starred and they whispered
But I didn't care
I'd cut my skin
I'd cut my hair

The girl who had nothing at all
The girl who suffered the fall

Change
Always Ally Nov 2012
Change strikes the heart
Piecing you together
Tearing you apart

Leaving you a mess
Leaving you at your best

Showing who you really are
Challenging you to rise
Being you
Despite the judgmental eyes

Change is good
Atleast thats what they say
I suppose it is or may be
One day

I Am Frozen
Always Ally Nov 2012
I am frozen
At the scene of the crash
Behind the camera
In the front seat
Seeing the camera flash

I am frozen
Lying cold
Heart stopped
Complete silence

I am frozen
Behind the camera
Tears sliding down my cheek
As the reporter talks on
Thinking about my family, my loved ones
Who could easily be gone within a week


I am frozen
At where it all happened
Only seconds ago
Said goodbye to my loved ones
Only not to know
That last goodbye was truly the last.
Nov 2012 · 716
I Would
Always Ally Nov 2012
I'd be an idiot
To say I don't miss you
To say I don't get it
That I don't know what to do

I'd be a mess
Without you
Without us
A love once so true

I'd cry if this came to be
If this would happen
For you and me

Until that day
We have this time
The rain will wash away
And the sun will shine.

— The End —
