20/M Searching for my place in this white space
Just one senseless act No point in it but they know There's no side that wins

War
You cry and cry it's all you do, Your tears just flow ever so easily, Some think "pathetic" but I know you, You cry and cry I know that really, The tears you shed aren't only yours, They're of those you love the most, It isn't you nor is it them, It's the evil requiem, What shall you do if you just cry, Standing bearing all that weight, Yet you aren't moving and now I, I now believe it must be fate, You’re crybaby hero!

Crybaby hero
Oh the days you failed Dragging you down endlessly And yet you will stand

Once more
Remains unchanging As long as all things are cold But once it gets warmth It then slowly lost itself No trace of that which we knew

Stature of ice
We all wish for peace Whether of mind or the world Can it be achieved?

Can it?
Cold droplets still fall On top of my head landing Am I a flower

I often hear you say these words, I can see your tears run dry, Hideous lines said it hurts, **** all those who made you cry, I urged you then and do it still, Saying things that make no sense, Love yourself please if you will, Never turn into past tense, Do not leave, it's not a solution, Talk to me, oh please be brave, I beg you stay, see your evolution, If not, then you dig your grave.

"I hate myself !?"
You lose what you hold dear, Then you're overcome by fear, You may remember it still, Held in place against your will, Your mind holds on strong, Says it wasn't that long, That it may come back late, You just listen and wait, With time you see that all is same, You cannot help but blame, You know the cause yet you chose heart, I know it's hard but that's a start, What once was lost will not come back, That doesn't mean your heart will crack, You need to accept it no way around, What once was lost will not be found, You feel the ache and let it breathe, If not so how would it leave, The weight you felt now remains light, From now on all things will turn bright.

The art of moving on...
Outside I gaze still Where once stood a lovely tree Nothing but few leaves

The Tree
I told you how I feel, And you turned me down, And now here I kneel, No tears for me to drown. You turned me down so gently, Apologizing clearly, I still do love you greatly, Oh I love you so dearly. I understand your reason, That your eyes already see, Now in this lovely season, A guy you like who isn't me. It is fine myself I've told, You turned me down with heart of gold, But I won't see your wedding gown.
