To survive We need food, water, and rest. But to live We need friendship, love, trust, and hope. Because with those we are surviving not living.

Live
In our minds we are not contained We need our hearts just the same For a heart without mind is pure strength and passion But mind without heart is just hate and aggression

Heart
When you've been broken for so long you forget what it's like to be whole   You forget what it's like to be in a room without wanting to weep to the floor   You wonder what it's like to smile without pain instead of through it Most of all you wish to know what it's like to look in the mirror and see yourself To see yourself without the front we give and the walls we build Because when you look in the mirror you see what others see Not your true identity

Identity
My arrow drives deeply into his neck and knees by halves I draw the arrow out drowning him in his own blood Shifting my aim across the bow I curve out my knife, look at the wound clutch it like it's me who's dying That's the day I stopped believing in hopeless life

Hopeless Life
Eyes: beg to closing Heart:pleads to quit aching Mind: prays to stop racing I'm breaking And no one is her to save me

Broken
your love was so strong your heart was so sweet   you broke me so soft    you left me so weak

Left
Your eyes filled with fire Your hands a murderous weapon Yet your heart isn't filled with hate You misshape our thoughts Convincing our hearts of purity We give into you And you destroy our aspirations But we retain hope Continuing to look for our sane minds

Dear War,
I walked heavy hearted The weight of life was pushing down on my soul There were so many question And yet not one answer A knock fell upon my door A flood of overwhelming emotion traveled through me I saw her I felt her beautiful brown hair I embraced her warm presence I saw her fce and regained my heart Then she quickly faded away My eye opened against everything in me She was gone And I was never getting her back

After the End
Your heart is an ocean You bring death and despair But you have life thriving inside you Your soul is a fire Wrathful and destructive But you can bring new life Your heat provides warmth But we must never forget you can burn Your thoughts twist our perception But they set us on course When Left alone we long for you But together we push you away At our purest we cannot see you But in our darkest hour your presence is clear   Your image is threatening Yet we give into your care We are nothing against you And can be nothing without you
