24 24: finding my place in life: my words tell my story, pay attention
I hear the screams of profanity in your drunk voice from that night The beating of your fist against the truck window My own voice pleading for help The faint sound of blood dripping onto the hardwood floor from your knuckles And yet, all you hear is silence It’s not the Silent Treatment The tears in my eyes are screaming so loud But you just can’t hear me

Not the Silent Treatment
These walls hold the secrets of many before us They shout the words of anger coming from drunk lips They bury the cries of the broken hearted They hold the whispered sweet nothings of lovers They gleam with laughter of a family They hum to the silence of a sleeping baby These walls are painted with the raw emotion of people I’ve never met I stare at them blankly trying to figure out where to start my story

These Walls
If I told you I was in love Would you have to ask “with who?”

Its You
Four years since our last kiss It was something I didn’t miss I hadn’t seen you in a while Until today when I saw your smile I remembered how I was smitten It’s too bad our Love was forbidden...

Today
Screaming at the top of my lungs. Gasping for air. “Please stop!” You caught me, I’m ticklish

Laughter
Our love was temporary you blinded me. My eyes are open Now I can see. The smoke has cleared I am finally free. .

Blind Love
He crawled deep within her soul and made a home out of cobwebs and broken pieces Oh how beautiful she truly was

Beautiful
I see you in my dreams more than I should I say I ignore you but I wouldn't even if I could You were never really mine, it was only a wish But please dear, just give me one more kiss Our eyes lock and my heart beats out of my chest I can't get over you, I guess I'm obsessed.. So I'll look at you like I look at a shining star But just remember, Karma is a ***** and she's never too far

Unforgotten
Please don't look at me Your eyes shatter my shell Your smile chills me to the bones We drink to forget But instead end up remembering We were friends who got to familiar Your warm breath on my neck Hands on my hips Heavy breathing Hushed tones Strangers we are again Nice to meet you

Strangers
Like a warrior I ride into battle with my head held high ready to conquer Even when the toughest approach I smile and say Bring it on
