A smile for a kind word shared
A tear for secret burdens I bear.
A smile for the beauty surrounds
A tear for these two hands bound.
A smile to show I'm doing great
A tear because I know my fate.
A smile to cover up the pain
A tear, I'll blame it on the rain.
A smile so you will never see
The tears inside are drowning me.

Snap!
Caught in your own trap.
Who's the spider, who's the fly?
See what happens when you lie?
Fight
Weave your web so tight
Twist it up it becomes your noose,
Beg your demons to cut you loose.
Run-
Aren't we having fun?
It's all a game we love to play
Until its done and you must pay.

I'm still picking up
The broken pieces of me
Be gentle this time

I knelt down
To scoop you up
With empty hands
Then watched fascinated
As you dripped through
My fingers
With a playful grin
I stripped down
And dove right in

In the shadows of branches
Without leaves
A lace pattern in the snow
Footprints of little birds
Before a stray cloud obscures the pale sun
The moment is gone.

Yeah I want to spit on you
You horrid worm beneath my shoe
You will do as I tell you to
Struggle squirm and suffer
Want to hear you say my name
Smear your pretty face with shame
Useless toy, you're all the same
Screaming crying pleading
Now clean it up, you're such a mess
Ripped and stained that pretty dress
Then toss you out with all the rest
Gutter refuse garbage
Wiped that smile off of your face
You don't exist, you've been erased
Vanished now without a trace
No one nowhere nothing

Inhale.
Make me
Your sustaining breaths
Exhale
Let it out
Let me
Be a release
To drink deeply,
Give to me
The longing and thirst
We share
Eat it up
I am here to
Sustain
You
Need me,
Don't
You

Imagine me running around
A mad blur, hair standing on end
With pencils and things sticking out
Post-its go flying
And a stack of newspapers and magazines topples like a tower.
I'm forgetting something
I chew my bottom lip trying to remember
Then remember ten other things
But still can't grasp the first.
Really, I'm more organized than this
I insist
Everything in its place
Alphabetized, polished and underlined
All my little duckies in a neat row
Checked and double checked
Quality-controlled.
I drop one marble and madness ensues.
Maybe I can't live in a bubble
>pop<
And some chaos must tear through.

It's only a dream
I'm no foolish girl
I will have to wake up
Eventually
The problem with dreams
As soon as you wake up
It's over
You can dream again
But it won't be me
Maybe I'm wishing
Just this once
Dreams could come true
But if I did
I would never tell you

*Locked up like a fortress
Behind rows of deadbolts
This is how I live.
Nothing good ever comes through.
I'm still learning this.
Every time I crack the door
Peeking out, hoping to see
A familiar or friendly face
It only causes me shame.
Did you see my secret pain?
I'm trying so hard to hide behind it.
My door swings on nothing.
I'm floating on it in a sea of confusion
Clinging on for dear life
Because it is all I have to keep me safe.
Only now I've lost the key
And there are millions of doors,
But none of them are mine.
Frantically I'm searching,
Screaming into the wind
As it tears my flesh with icy fingers.
But I think I've given up, it's hopeless.
Ill just let myself sink to the bottom.*
**I'm awake now and the nightmare is over
But to my horror I'm looking in the mirror
And the nightmare is my life.
I'll just go check the locks
One more time.**
