Everyone absorbs the emotions
like the pores soaking dew up.
Overflow! Overflow! Runs down the cup.
Drips flowing, falling.Wild commotion.

Nights like theses, only few
Anger radiates like bursts of rays from the sun
Tears of fear, scurry and flee for the open.
Only this can source from a pit of compassion for you.

The mix of people bellow the words "They CAN'T change it"
That may be, however are the deceptive mind games innocent too?
"YOU did this to ME. I am going to **** myself because of YOU."
A punch much more than a painful blow,more like a life shattering hit.

The trembles,violently shaking of emptiness.
In one flash of an innocence, the roles reverse
Child cut by icy cold lyrics rehearsed
Each fraud affection emphasized in every verse

My youthful eyes sought to help
The purest bits of my love induced soul reached out.
You flooded my life with responsibilities, rarely a shout
With age, shadowed by wisdom of what you were really about.

Child lost in a hazy mist of false love.
You used your forgiving child as a door mat.
Wiped your feelings all over my heart,
Stomped on my childhood,
And left me in the dust.

The day that wasn't so happy
dad had a bad week
I remembered he was tired
recently fired.
He took some pills
as quickly as the fireworks bashed.
Boom
takes another
Boom
takes another
But the finale was the worst.
I was lying on the floor,
sobbing and begging him to stay.
Tears flooded like the colors flaking down the sky.
Never will I forget that fourth of July
Just one of many days. begging my dad to stay

Every memory burned in my head
everyone, "I wish i was dead"
mom and dad both feel this way
they don't know how to be okay
Day after day
I beg them to stay
Keep living for me
"I love you whole heartily"
Sometimes its all night
but they get through it
However, i am not suited
for this job
at sixteen
to ask them to keep breathing
I am tired of trying to be their rock
eventually i cracked, under their pressure
of this depression that takes no measure
How can neither of them love me enough
to figure out life is tough
but no matter what, you're suppose to stay
for the sake of your daughter
please don't go away.
My job as a daughter is to keep my parents wanting to live, but I dont care because i love them. yes it hurts alot, and i can barely handle but i will push through for them.

Parents fight, children cry
Put in the middle of something they didn't ask for
now thrown like ash in the wind, war begins.
Pushing for decisions, asking to much
like an ash, the light went out
Family wasn't the same anymore
Childrens hearts were torn
Mom and Dad were no longer safe places
but nothing more than full of hatred.
"Don't you love me?"
Says mom and dad
After the child answers where they want to be.
But little do they know
everything was just a show
the kids were no longer happy
but cared too much to let it end badly
so they tried to help
but instead made the division greater
they put everything aside for later
hoping they could fuel their parents joy
by saying whatever they can
to rebuild what they had
The bridge was burned
and the ember was at fault.
Everyone was damaged.
But the kids..
was something they didn't think about.
Advice to anyone getting a divorce. Yes it is hard for you, but never put the kids in the middle, dont say things to ***** with there heads, be the better person.

That day when I was left broken
no words spoken
The day I reflected
the person who stared back at me with no reckon
Who I became
Now, filled with shame
Life shatter
Heart beaten and battered
and the end of the battle
Became a little rattled
Then I understood
what only I could
It was time for war
I knew this for sure
Against the enemy
Whose placed in life under many identities
you may know him, money,deceit or lust
there's only one person I trust
to lead me through this war of life
someone who can handle this strife
Life became harder
but it was a small charter
For the never ending lovingness
of my Lord and savior

The days left to spend with you
nothing but rendezvous
My heart of passion
knows this will leave me no compassion
Everyone has warned me of the risk
But I want nothing more than this
Every time I see you
My words stutter, heart knows whats true
My clock is frozen in time
I'm stuck knowing, you are a lucky find
This could be dangerous
and it won't be painless
But I know something good will come of it
Even time can't stop me, not even a little bit
The hands are turning
and everyone's yearning
to watch me crash and burn
but when will they learn
I don't care about anyones opinions
So time please keep ticking
so I could prove them wrong
tick-tock
tick - tock
tick-tock
Time will come, and I will be strong
Everyone says this "crush" of mine should be cut off because he's moving in three months but honestly I dont care because if i dont take the risk ill never know what could have been. I pray to God each night that I do what's right. Even if were just friends I still will like to be until he leaves.

Follow the celestial alignments, seek the star shinning bright
The deep leaves and vines of the forest will entangle you
Keep striving for the path of the glistening moonlight

When your lost in the forbidden darkness of the night
The birds swoop swiftly beneath the glimmer of clouds, blue
Follow the the celestial alignments, seek the star shinning bright

Be above the fear of mystery and commit to the light
Grasp the hope, dig your fingers in and follow through
Keep striving for the path of the glistening moonlight

The warmth of the light will steam your soul to fight
The trees, the leaves, all unsatisfying. Even the flowers too.
Follow the the celestial alignments, seek the star shinning bright

The bleakness of the way you've been traveling will give you the might
To find something that you never knew
Keep striving for the path of the glistening moonlight

Now you are found, predestined for life, never leaving sight
Examining how much more beautiful everything is, even the dew
Keep striving for the path of the glistening moonlight
Follow the the celestial alignments, seek the star shinning bright
Also, this poem is open for interpretation. However, I wrote this poem particularly describing life trying to find Jesus, the light.
