Scroll through the gram, read through a book,
Don’t know who I am, try not to look,
At a mirror, an image of the one I don’t want to see,
The scarred and bruised, broken picture that’s me.
Rather have seven years of bad luck
Than see that ugly face,
That I know I should embrace,
But time and time again
I close my eyes and try to pretend
That I’m a princess, an angel, the focus of a poem,
Where a man falls in love with the face that is shown
But that’s not me, that’s only – a fantasy,
And sadly, the reality,
Of it is this.
I compare myself to her, to them, to anyone and everyone.
See, I’m never half as pretty, never half as skinny, never half as lucky,
But that’s not true… is it?
According, to my reality, the way I see, the way I think,
It is.
This is my truth. This will be the death of me.
Can’t you see? This is my distorted reality.

The words I wanna say,
I can't express the way
that I feel
My words are lacking in beauty, they're bland.
I just wish they'd come out through my hand
When I'm writing
I just wish that they'd flow
So you would know
How much I care about your growth
As a woman, as my friend
And I hope that our friendship never ends
But frankly I'm scared
That you're not aware
That I am here too
It's not all about you
I feel so used
But no matter what
I'd do anything for you
Cause I'm trynna help
Cause I know that you're hurting
Inside though you cover it
By throwing
Yourself on these men
Who don't love you for what is inside
And it hurts me to tell you
That you need to stop.
It's not worth the pain
Of them leaving after one night of ***
So you move on to the next
Your convinced that they love you each time
But I'm trynna tell you through this rhyme
That you need to take your time
To find out who they are,
And I know you've been scarred
And that is why I am here.
To take you into my home
So that you don't have to be alone
Just put down that **** phone
And see those who love you
Who wanna help you and guide you
But listen I'm gonna be honest
You can't stay here forever
And if you don't wanna change then that's fine
Whatever.
There's nothing I can do
Except tell you
How much I care
But when you leave
Always remember
You can always come back
It doesn't matter
The way that you come
Cause I'm here to help you
And we are still friends
And that will never end
Sincerely,
Someone who cares too much

As I pick up my pen and start to write
I suddenly don't know what to say
My mind is turning every which way
What to write, what to write?!
The question lingers on
My heart speaks out and soon
Feelings turn into song.

You wrote in my heart with a pen
A pen full of permanent ink
And now that mark can never be erased
Because you wrote with permanent ink
No matter how hard I scrape away the image
It never goes away
Because you wrote with permanent ink

I held on to the time before me
I never let it go
I kept it in my arms at last
But when you left I let it go
And now I am spent
And I don't think there's anything left
Time is gone
And I'm alone
Nothing here at my home
Now time is fleeting fast
Seeping through all the cracks
The cracks that formed
The day you left me torn

When I look in a mirror this is what I see,
I see someone looking right back at me.
It's a girl with brown hair!
With a smile and skin fair.
She has freckles and blue eyes
And a shirt with green tie dye!
I ask her, "What's your name?"
But there is no reply...
For that girl in the mirror
Is a reflection of I.

A wishful thinker things of magic, dragons, and knights.
A king with a daughter as pretty as light.
Dreaded forests as far as the eye can see.
Or sitting in the shade of a magic will tree!
A big, wide land with giants of stone.
A mansion with all sorts of musical tones.
Or the Kingdom of Camelot with Merlin at hand.
A hot, dry beach all covered in sand!
Fairies with wands, dragons with gold.
Knights in armor, secrets untold!
Kingdoms with kings, dreamers with dreams.
And if you look closely it seems...
That a wonderful God has made up this mind of adventures and things!

Spring is now here,
A new type of year,
The flowers all bloom.
Birds sing a new tune,
The snow goes away
On that warm, sunny day,
And people all sing
The joy song of Spring.
It comes and it goes
And the sun starts to glow.
Summer is hot
Like a warm coffee ***
The sun rays burst out
Like a big water spout.
So you will get hotter
So drink plenty of water.
Yay! School is out,
But soon kids will pout,
‘Cause it comes and it goes
And cold winds start to blow.
Fall is cold.
(As I have been told.)
We make big leaf piles
As high as ten miles.
You jump right on in
And have fun with your kin.
But put on your jacket,
And make a big racket,
‘Cause it comes and it goes
As Jack Frost nips at your nose.
Winter is near,
My favorite time of the year,
Cause the snow starts to fall
A hundred feet tall,
And there’s Christmas Vacation
To go to a fun location.
You make angels and snowmen,
And eat yummy cookies (about maybe ten)
But it comes and it goes
And warm weather warms up my toes.
And here we are again
At the beginning and the end.
The place where we started,
And the place where we parted.
And soon you will see
The think that is key…
That God made the seasons
For a good reason,
To give us a smile
For a long, long, long, while.

Together
Partners, lights
Remembered, lively, warm
Dancing, smiling, standing, waiting
Cold, empty, forgotten
Walls, shadows
Alone

Dancing
All
Night
Continually
Imagining that I am
Never
Going to stop
