I just plan to be heard
Light is always there, From the sun during the day And also from the Moon at night, That mysterious thing we see every night It may not have the brightest lights But still it's always there Shining Comparing it to the sun It's like comparing a flashlight to a streetlamp But still it's always there Shining During the day The sun is there At night It's gone At night The moon is there During the day It's still there shining It may not be the brightest light in the world, But it's always there Shining

Wake Up
I dreamt of you again last night, I've felt more of your kisses in my dreams than in real life. Does that make them any less real?

Last Night
Have you ever noticed it? Those days When the sun shines in way that is just perfect. Have you ever noticed it? Those days When the warmth from the sun keeps you warm not only outside but inside too. Have you ever noticed it? Those days When the only constant thing in your life is that light coming from the sky. I've noticed it

The Sun
They lied to me when they said that sticks and stones break bones but words don't hurt I found that your words have branched and rooted within every splinter in my bones and the ache is nagging and constant It's the guilt your words caused that weigh like boulders on my shoulders and every step causes a new fracture Sticks and stones don't break bones but the weight of your words have crushed me

They Break Bones
They say that she has a curse from her hair and what's inside They say that she is cursed But she calls it a gift she says it's a gift but she can't go out and tell them for fear of the pain she'll endure the sun burns her beautiful skin but she calls it a gift all the townspeople fear her because she has no soul but she still calls it a gift because she has everything she's ever wanted she has him, her love he doesn't care of the curse instead he sees her heart and it's purity and loves her for eternity

The Ginger
When I saw her I believed in our future, I saw how we could be, and I saw how we could fall, When I saw her I knew that I would gain a friend, I knew that I would fall in love, with her smile, her voice, but I didn't know everything, I didn't know that I would love, her smarts, the way she says things, one month, then I can hug her, and never let go, one month, and things will be different, she will understand how I feel, And I will understand how she feels, one month exactly

I always knew she would fall in love, But not in that way, She loved the words that healed her, Fixed her heart and brought it back, But not the mouth, The voice behind the words, He loved her, But to her he was a drug, One that didn't cost money, Just a broken heart, She used up his words, Made his heart whole, He loved her Until one day, When she didn't need him anymore, She was better, So she left, And broke the heart that fixed her, He loved her But she didn't really love him She loved the words

Words
I always thought I would die before my time, I always thought that I'd never fall in love with anyone else, I always thought my friendships would last forever, I always thought... that was the problem, I thought, thinking is a gift and a fatal flaw, thinking destroyed my love life, but I passed freshman year because I thought, I always thought that I always needed to think, until something changed, after the change, my thoughts became irrelevant, instincts became primal, and all feelings were lost, thinking brings emotions, and emptiness, thinking brings happy memories, and devastating ones, thinking brought you into my life and it took you away, I always thought that we'd be forever, I always thought of you, Thinking is the reason I lost you,
