Who knew that in a year, things could change so much That the love of your life, could become your worst enemy That despite the more you've learned the more clueless you've become Who knew that in a year, you could be back to where you were, not knowing where to go I didn't know that within a year I would end up hating myself, hating the person I've become I have always been fascinated with planes; I have always admired the fact that they can go anywhere,that there is no limit And I realize for the first time in my life, I don't know what is to come But music and poetry help me survive, and I start to finally let my heart have a say I realize that I need to do things that I want, that in the end I can be an airplane and have no limit And with time, I can end up where I want to be But I know I have to start small, that everything starts small And it will be entirely up to me to make it big

With Time
I wrote you, because I so longed for you to be me I wrote you because I wanted to feel powerful I felt useless, so I created you, the better me You are the stronger me I think of you when I feel weak, because I know you would be able to fight better than I You can use your head instead of your heart, You can love without it getting in the way I made you to face a problem head on, and to not be afraid I think of you when I don't want to be me, when I don't want to be scared You take me away to your world, the world I have always wanted to live Because in your world, I can do anything I can become you I created you to become free and fight for what you believe I made you to be capable of anything I wanted you, because you're the person I want in my story Because I know I could never fill that place

I felt so trapped I am so young, yet I couldn't figure out what I had to give One day I want to get out, I thought But I couldn't find what I had to give Walking around, I could see everyone beginning to spread their wings Finding their power, their magic, their tricks All their hands and eyes glowed And then there was me, figuring out what I had to give I felt like I had nothing My drive was beginning to die away Maybe I will be here forever, maybe my wings will never grow But I thought about what I loved most in the world So I opened my mouth and notes were beginning to fall out, and music was in the air Suddenly words began to form and I wrote them down I looked at my hands and I saw them start to glow I could feel my eyes shimmering And my tiny wings beginning to spread It wasn't that I discovered something, I unraveled something that was already there A talent finally worth giving And so I found out what I had to give

What I Had to Give
There was once a time when my head was down and eyes closed A time where I was hardened and so far away I was on my own separate island But each day, he would come by to see me, a friend who I had never noticed Each day he would make me feel a little more special Every day my smile would grow wider and wider And my hardened self would begin to soften He was a someone so opposite from me a someone I had never seen before And the more he came over, the more curious I got I began to look into him, going deep into his mind His similarities lured me in, and his differences called me, And as I went deeper I found something incredible I began to unravel a lovely creature Something so magnificent and frightening Like a tiger catching its prey I went in so deep, That I left his mind And went into his heart My trust in him shocked me but His trust in me shocked me even more We opened up to each other like flowers in the sun He became more than a friendly companion He became my love My love that helped me forget, forget about the pain in the world And as we got so close, I reached out my hand to finally touch him, But I soon realized that he was never mine, he simply belonged to someone else And the illusion of being with someone, left me alone

How much I love you, How much I want to be with you, And How much we have forgotten, Do you remember our feelings when we touched? When we stared into each others eyes and would get lost in a journey of infatuation? Do you remember when our lips would yearn for each other? When they would get lost in each other when they would meet? Do you remember the aches we felt? Our never ending tears falling? Do you remember being torn apart? The excruciating pain? No, you probably don't, Because eventually we forget. Eventually, we forget the pain. We forget all feelings, including the love.
