I live a life constantly alone under the water in my own pool / Taught myself to swim and hold my breath / I may seem pained / But that makes me stronger than most
We lay naked in a blank room unable to move or speak and yet Colors Vivid, brilliant colors Dancing to sounds only we can hear The only source is our inner most thoughts and our deepest emotions We are poets

Dancing Colors
Sink into the masses never to be heard from or spoken to Observe Never judging For you know what it's like to be judged It's what made you decide to become invisible Hide away once the day is done Cry inside but never shed a tear Wish for a life One where you're seen and loved Above all loved Hope that one day you'll live without fear of pain of heartbreak of cruelty of lingering eyes and twisted faces Dream that one day you'll have enough courage that eventually none of those things will bother you that you won't have to remain invisible forever

The Invisble
What is real? What isn't? Is anything anymore? I can't tell I don't know if I'm real I'm lost Who am i? What do i like? What don't i like? Who is real? Are you? Can you prove it? No. No one can. We're guessing. Assuming. I need to know you're real One day I'll fall and trust you to catch me Will you really be there to save me? Or will i fall through the air and into a bottomless pit of nothing?

is this real
He sails along the open seas She lingers beneath the waters Her sultry voice calls to him Luring him into her waters He's a sweet man That's what she finds most enticing She sings her song of heaven Until he travels within her reach Then her song changes from heaven to death He doesn't realize it He's captivated He thinks she's perfect and harmless Her intentions, however, aren't so pure She doesn't mean to She's lonely But she can't resist the hunger for his soul

the siren and the sailor
She wanders the desert alone Knowing and feeling that she's looking for something She's not sure what it is or why she needs it, but that doesn't stop her from searching She lost track of time and days Growing weak and confused What is it all for? A yew tree stands in the distance providing temporary shade She stayed at that tree to wait Something inside told her she would find what she was looking for there The sun set and the moon arose bringing relief to the land dried from the sun's harsheties What is it all for? She stepped from the tree to bathe in the moonlight An owl by the name of White Thunder awoke and saw her from the tree Captivated, the owl took flight making circles over her as she danced What is it all for? She grew tired and fell to the ground to watch the sky She instantly spotted White Thunder, saw the owl staring at her, and she knew that had been what she was looking for

Moonlit Beauty
I think i would rather a heart of ice than a heart of glass Glass is translucent and fragile When it breaks, it can so easily hurt anyone who comes upon it Ice, though similar, is exceptionally different It can be either clear or cloudy Or it can hurt or sooth I like it most because unlike glass, it can melt when given enough warmth While yes, ice is cold, it's still only water hardened by its surroundings

Ice Cold Heart
The sea is nature's most mysterious creation Though some are captivated, many are frightened To think that being submerged in something so beautiful can take your life It's easy to see where those people come from It can make you lose any hope to see the sun Its depth is so unknown how do we know what to guard ourselves from No amount of preparation can help Nothing can protect us Not our parents, our friends, or our security blanket we had as children We are on our own

future unknown
You're there when the wind blows You're there when i bathe in the light of the moon I can feel you You're the one who keeps my sanity intact You calm me down when I'm about to explode So i just want to say thank you Thanks for giving me a chance at a normal life

sweet relief
Feel like I'm losing touch No longer knowing what's going on Not even sure if it's important Missing my memories Times of laughter and comfort So unsure of how things became this way Distance It's really always the cause Distance can tear anything apart without a second thought Let's reunite and return to our old selves Together we can conquer the world

fate of friends
Why When everything's okay Why must you pull me back down Why must you torture me with ugly thoughts Why must you make me think about my past About myself About my future Why won't you let me be normal Everyone else looks so happy Why won't you let me have that Why must i suffer Why
