Who is that in the shadows? / Always there, never seen. / They try to get noticed, but just get shoved back

Liars
They sit there staring at you, looking at you nervously, wondering if they will get caught. / You sit there staring back, watching their moves, looking and waiting for the signs. / They don't realize what they are doing, it has become second nature.

Mothers
You are always there for everyone else, you sit back in the shadows to make sure that they dont fall, / You love with all your heart and you never give up on your famliy, no matter how much tyhey mess up, / You make sure they have what they want, what they need, yet you will do without what you need as long as they are happy, but its time that you come out of the shadows and finnaly get what you deserve.

Leaves
Life is like the leaves on a tree / You start out small and motionless then gradually you will move with the wind. / As you grow older you start to try to hold on tighter to your branch so that the wind does not take you away, but yet you feel like you should just let go but before you are truly ready winter will come and make you leave the comforts of your home, your beautiful branch.

Life is a Dream
I have had time to think and now I know that my life is just a dream / Look me in the eye and tell me the truth / Is it real?

Three Little Words
I love you, these three little words are the words you say to mean / but is that really what you mean? / Again you say those three little words and again I wonder if it is true.

People
Everyone is different on the outside, / And on the inside we all look the same. / People are quick to judge

WHY????????
Why do the tears that you create cause the most pain? / Why did I let you treat me like a welcome mat? / Why did you have to take it all away from me?

What Happens When.........
When you draw, the images are your thoughts, / When you write, the ink flows with your words, / When you talk, your thoughts form words and come to life,

The Time Has Come
The time has come, but no one knows why or what for. / They sit and wonder, will they get caught? / The time has come to do right, to see what to do.
