Here I am... nothing special, but I love to write.
All the stars start to align The glowing path gets clearer Each night You're checking out So turn out the lights Leave me stuck here in the dark I want to see brilliant shades of red Blood to paint the walls with my very life I want to go with you And forever be by your side But instead I am tortured by the lights Take me home Let me be free I want to fly away from everything So distant from what weighs me down

It all just seems so utterly hopeless. I try to become happy; I try to be strong, but its getting harder just to live on. Its not a death sentence, manifested in my mind. But a lack of faith in my future. The right thing to do is always the hardest. I've lived by these words my entire life and it kept me strong enough to carry the world on my shoulders. But it seems that my body is caving in and I am slowly losing my right to live. I thought I was passed being depressed. I'm not a kid anymore. I should be able to conquer the world with a pain in my chest and a smile on my face. Now I know what it is like to feel erased from the face of existance, yet watching my life carry on as if i am a ghost. Trying to see the life i would have lived as if i were still alive.

Given up
There is a recognizable strength in numbers When two or more band together for one cause, miracles therein lie There is closure in groups A safe heaven in the support and care of others of whom you can rely on There is a passion in numbers Of which this world cannot recognize a relationship between you and I and it gives such strength without compromise So why do I want to be alone?

Outsider
I can still recall My life Closing in on itself Destroying my mind To the point of a broken Body I was weakened Defenseless So helpless I failed to see the end I was blinded For, there was no light To give me color in my eyes But then I rose up At my lowest point I was so weak, I couldn't Use my hands And now I stand Strong By faith that resides in me It gave me courage to fight and conquer my worst enemy Even physical ailments Can be brought on by doubt So I changed my mind And turned my life around There is nothing that can extinguish the burning flame Nothing can put out my intangible source of faith So from this moment on I will rise and be stronger then ten thousand Legions of angels For the angel carried me safe from deaths grasp

Better Than...
Every one's around me And my world is quickly fading I'm on front stage But in the background As the music starts to clash I don't understand I can't figure out why The melodies collide In such an ugly way Despite each chord or note I try It all just seems wrong So I looked out to the empty seats There couldn't have been but ten people They didn't seem to notice That my life was clashing into my existence and they were like mindless puppets, just singing along The piano holds its key And it's just me Its just me who ruined the melody It's so simple to me This should come so easily Although I tried and tried to make things right, I couldn't figure out what's wrong inside of me I've become my worst enemy And when they asked me to sing I was off in my own world Everyone could hear the sound Of a broken guitar So that's when I stopped playing and let my voice take control Their eyes were filled with wonder As they touched a piece of my soul It's so curious to me Did I let them down? It should have been obvious to me But I just couldn't figure it out So am I wrong? Am I wrong? Am I just asking to fall? What comes easiest to me Can feel like something like a dream All that I've worked towards To all that I aimed for It all means nothing in the end Did I lose focus? Or did I stumble? It means nothing in the end at all to me My passion My worry My reason to give Who I am upon a shining billboard It's So easy for them to see My reason My talent To see me fall after coming so far I've made it so far But it's only just a dream

This is my only shot at redemption After all that I've done Everyone I've hurt Over my selfish desires And impulsive turns I've no choice but to move on Create a whole new life for myself Because the person I was born to be Is now dead In my mind's sight This is the only option I have Otherwise My physical being Will turn to nothing But ash, by my own hands Letting go is hardly up for debate But moving on will guide me Towards that day And offer me a clean slate Stripping a rose of its blood red sin So that, perhaps one day It can be white again But the jagged thorns Offer a reminder: Just as the scars that surface And remain eternally, Portray the dangerous anamour And the price of vanity

Cleansing
Can you see a future Dawning in the horizon? The birds are singing To the melody in their hearts While the Earth basks In the sound Can you feel it? Can you feel my heart beat Pitter? It makes me feel so alive And I see The silver lining It's so close Almost in reach This isn't me But I don't know where else I'd rather be And I'm tired of believing That nothing becomes of a dreamer When nothing comes from doubt It comes from faith, believing in myself Out here it's dark~ open my eyes When I look up to the midnight sky It's so beautiful That it takes my breath away It's so beautiful How the rarest of things Break the shadows Throughout galaxies So far away from where we are But still their beauty shines To cast away the dark And that's what it's like to dream Its never giving up Or letting go I'm not letting go~ Can you feel it? Can you feel it? Can you feel my heart beat Pitter? It makes me feel so alive And I see The silver lining It's so close Almost in reach It's my dreams...

I just want to make you smile Again. I can feel you drifting slowly along with the current Further away from where I wait for you I don't feel my mind is steady I am restless and I know it isn't you, but me who is slipping away Vanishing. I can not break free from this hypnosis In so deeply, that I'm entranced by the very existence And all I have in my mind is the memories of my life, as it is my life that evades me I see the very image of what I've become A picture, looking through the glass My reflection. But the one staring back at me was unfamiliar. It's eyes were shadowed with evil- It's face, a twisted smile Can't you hear me calling for you? My voice, echoes into an abyss Don't you see how rapidly I fall? You were supposed to save me

Trial and error Run in circles throughout my life Teaching me that there is no decision Without Consequence All that my parents left me After they raised me Their strict rules of right and wrong Became meaningless And they became the examples of sin That they'd raised me to hate I don't understand how Things fell apart so easily Nor can I comprehend the way It will all turn out in the end Even as a young adult, I am finding myself highly confused If my parents are allowed to do these things.... Are they living in sin? Or is sin even real? I contemplate so many factors in my life Like how I can't refrain from hurting myself Or the way I fight so hard each day not to chip away and hurt someone I love I am toxic and am decaying so quickly That I can't even see straight The images all blend and bend I can't work I can't sleep I can't even function or do The easiest things But of all the things I wish I couldn't do; I can breathe I don't understand why things have to be this way. I don't even understand why I need help. Still I go in fear of losing myself But I was never my own person to begin with
