In the light of day many hide behind masks,
Once the sun falls and the moon rises,
In the darkness the truth is always revealed.
Very few refrain from hiding,
Very few come out to light,
For most would rather lurk in the shadows than face what life is like.

Remember,
To dance when no one is watching
To write when an idea arises
To draw when you feel the urge
To laugh when you find things amusing
To cry is something upsets yoy
To scream if something frightens you
Remember,
To let your emotions run free
To keep an open mind
To keep an open heart
To feel without regrets

And so time has flown
And in my memories it all remains
The unbreakable bond that once was
A friendship.
Terminated on one end but
Very much alive on this end,
Yes,
Very much alive.
And as the time goes on
The memory becomes more precious,
And as the time goes on
The loyalty from here resides,
Very much alive.
A friendship that no matter how damaged,
It is still very much Alive.

They are coming after me...
I can hear them braking the chains...
Screams, cries, silence...
Silence at once,
Is it over?
Am I saved?
Screeching...
I hear screeching, crying and screaming...
They are coming for me!
I hear them,
They are everywhere,
Spinning in circles,
All around me they've come for me!
I hear them.
I hear my inner demons.

Sad is when a loved one passes,
Unbearably depressing is to watch a loved one deteriorate.
When their mind twists,
The concience unraveling.
Addicted to control,
Addicted to unrealistic expectations.
A complete change from withing themselves.
It is harder to watch a loved one die on the inside and become a stranger, than it is to watch them pass.

The tales of a man once loved,
He who resorted to misstreating others.
Turned vial, turned dark.
He tore through hearts as if they were a craved meal.
Pulling and shredding souls with words so unforgivable to young minds.
Pushing them towards suicide he felt at ease.
A bully of minds with a cowardly heart.
They will remember him
They won't forgive him
Someday when he passes there will be no audience to his demise,
There will be no tolerance for he who is certain he is above all else.
He is a bully of the worst kind.
One who bullied a young girls mind.

A man blamed,
A man feared,
A male struggle.
You give her a compliment,
She blames you for objectifying her.
You give the promotion to a better contender,
She accuses you of ****** harassment.
She gets vindictive.
She wears skimpy clothing,
It's hard not to notice,
Two seconds later,
You're labeled a pervert.
You want to provide,
So her nails are always polished,
She calls you a sexist,
All you had done was make her your queen.
So what is so wrong about being a man?
Nothing.
Why are you blamed for things never done?
Unknown.
Everyone speaks of the female unfairness,
Yet no one remembers the male sacrifice.
That women too exploit the male gender,
All so they can move up a ladder.
A sense of entitlement,
A pity self secured,
Used as excuses,
In everyday life.
Why is it okay for her to objectify you,
But she gets cradled in sympathy when you give a compliment?
Why is it okay for her to ask you to cook,
But sexist if you ask her for a meal?
Why should you always pay the check if she claims to be so independent then?
Why is there such a defined double standard?
I am a woman,
To empower man.

In the darkness I live in,
There's a man so tall and thin,
And in the morning he goes hiding,
Though at night he screams I'm lying,
And in the night,
My thoughts break into silence,
A life remains,
Within the mist of phobias.
When the sun is up I find escape
From the demons in my head,
But as the sun sets here he's creeping
Through my mind as I am sleeping,
And in the night,
My thoughts break into silence,
A cry through rain,
I lost my mind in phobias.
If paranoia is my only friend,
Well I must fall with him again,
As he reminds me of my sorrow,
While I cry for a tomorrow,
I lost myself
In silence.

A pursuit for motivation
In an overweight nation
To become what I have dreamt of
And not what I became of
What I eat
When I sit
For hours with no end
The slob meets its end
A motivation found
At last

The unlikeliest place to find confidence
A boosted self esteem,
When others tore and ripped my mind,
My body image,
Bullied as a child and fourth it continued,
It never seized to amaze me,
The comments they threw,
Like stones they did harm me,
My name was ugly
I named myself unique
My name was freaky
I named myself limited
My name was what many thought I was then,
I named myself what I would be now.
I grew then to be the same as before,
Or so I had thought,
One day arrived at my college life,
Your camera flashed and I began to feel
Different...
They named me ugly
You made it feel as though I wasn't
They named me a freak
You used me for art
To this day,
Years after that,
Thanks to you,
I don't feel so ugly
Don't feel as much like a freak,
You showed me,
I can be infront of the camera and not always behind it.
Thank you,
For being more than a photographer,
More than a friend,
You were a boost to this bullied little girl's self worth and self esteem!
