American Laughing my way through life. / Just writing what I feel in my heart. / Nothing more. / Nothing less.
I used to believe love conquered all. That’s how I felt when you held me. Promising to catch me should I fall But you left me feeling empty. I was your number one fan. I couldn’t bear to see you fail. You let go of my hand So ready to leave and set sail. I was crazy for thinking you were mine. I was nothing more than a pretty lie. Should seen the blinking sign But you’ll never see me cry. There’s one thing you should know. Once I ran to you. I believed I had nowhere to go. Now I run from you.

Love Lost
You left with my heart Both walked through that door. I can feel myself falling apart You ended this war. We argued about nothing Causing unnecessary pain. We should have been loving, Learning to dance in the rain. You kept everything inside And it all fell apart Even though I tried I was never able to conquer your heart. What happened to that feeling? It’s too late for us to be in love anymore. Too tired to keep breathing. We both know forever’s out the **** door.

Forever's Out the Door
It’s dark and I’m lost. Up is down and left is right. I’m not sure where to turn. I’m not sure where to go. I’m drowning in the dark. You were the light in my life. I used to look ahead of me. The light at the end of the tunnel Leading me to my future. I didn’t know it was just you Moving slowly away from me. The light at the end of the tunnel Was you saying goodbye until the light was completely gone. Should I stumble around finding my way out? Do I scream for help? Each minute here leads me further into the blackness. Wandering. Thinking. It’s dark and I’m lost. I Should Have Known I should have known. So many things were wrong.

Dark and Lost
I’m crawling in my sins Slowly drowning I’m beginning to welcome death I can’t hold my head up high Otherwise you will see the shame Written all over my face I used to stand up so tall and proud I thought I knew right from wrong Good from bad But nothing is ever black and white They blend together Mixing until you can’t tell where one ends And the other begins. I have my regrets I can’t change what I’ve done Karma is waiting for me Waiting patiently Waiting to steal my happiness Waiting until I’m too weak. When the time comes, she will lash out Marring my skin and soul alike Bleeding out leaving me completely empty. I can’t change the cards I have been dealt I never meant to hurt anyone and I am sorry for the pain I have caused. I’m so close to taking my last breath My sins are smothering me I can’t crawl any further Karma is right in front of me Her smile so beautiful Full of promises Her eyes tell stories of my ending Brightening with each struggle of breath My time is up. I’m not alone I embrace what I’ve done Kissing my sins and regrets Because when she is done with me I can start anew and smile once again.

Crawling
I want to kiss you. But a deep kiss showing my passion is true. Don't deny it, you want it too. Gently biting your lips. Your neck receives soft nips. Slowly making my way down your body. I can feel how wet you are. Your scent is driving me crazy. I can't think. Teasing you is the furthest from my mind now. I have to taste you, Lick you, **** you. Reminding you, you have always been mine. Twice in ten minutes I have you screaming. You whimper out my name. I kiss my way back up your body. Your eyes are hazy and dark. I can't help but smirk. I've come a long way since you first taught me. Baby, the master has been mastered.

You are Mine
I wish I could hate you. No one would blame me if I did. I’ve turned into an angry shrew. Screaming your name, looking stupid. You broke your promise. Where were you when I needed you the most? I never did have your confidence And now your memory is my intimate ghost. She wanders silently Teasing, Taunting, Whispering sweet words shaking me violently. She knows her effect on my heart. She can hear it break every time we talk. She knows I’m falling apart. Making it hard to speak, To breathe. My knees are buckling. I can’t move my feet. I can’t walk. At least she is here And as long as I’m breathing She won’t leave me. My memory of you keeps her close And I will never be alone.

I Wish
For the longest time I avoided looking into the mirror Terrified of my reflection. Scared of the monster i had tried so hard to conceal. Year after year, I barely gave more than a passing glance Until that fateful day. Curiosity overcame fear. What i saw blew my mind. My monster was nothing more than a girl. Laugh lines, worry lines, and imperfections marred her face. Freckles scattered across her cheeks. Messy head of curls framed her features. It was her eyes that caught my attention. Such a dark brown her pupils got lost in them. But her eyes told the most wondrous story. It was a tale of fear.  Fear of the unknown Fear of never being loved Fear of never measuring up. It was a tale of happiness. Happy to be alive. Happy to have a home and a family intact. Happy to know she always had a place in this world. It was a tale of anger. Anger over being held back. Anger over being lied to. Anger about falling in love just to have her heart broken. It was a tale love. Love from family and friends. Love from softball, her true love. Love from the fact she was alive and well. But most importantly it was a tale of life. The ups and the downs The smiles and tears Friendships and betrayals They all play a role in shaping a person. This girl in the mirror may have been young but she had lived and continues to live. Her smiles conquer her tears. She learned to dance in the rain without the umbrella. My monster in the mirror was nothing more than a relfection of the person i am.
