Just a girl trying to find the right words.
I see myself in the fading flowers That rest beneath the distant sun Those whose growth has been cut short By being surrounded by others' painful thorns I see myself in their broken leaves And grayish colors I see myself in their silent griefs And all their life-long sorrows

No Roses, Please
Darling, The opposite of love isn't hate It's indifference. It is leaving right before dawn Opening my eyes as we kiss Burning your letters Collecting your tears Ignoring your calls Letting my feeling flow in the air And never reaching you Allowing you to believe I might hold your hand one day Darling, The opposite of love is me.

from Me to You
When the city falls asleep And the lights are all turned off There’s a weeping you can hear Of a mother Of a child Of a soldier Of a heart The weeping is prolonged It torments me to compare The tears that are being shed To the thousands of stars on the evening sky And how unfortunate for the moon To have to witness such a fool Writing so late at night But this is something I cannot miss A tear is often taken for granted But many at once is such a bliss It gives me hope It fills me with faith That people feel at night Even if they hide behind a mask during the day

Alive at Night
She pierced my heart with just a glance I couldn’t help but laugh At that poor, jealous girl And even then, she kept my heart And held out hers For me to take But I declined it She’s just a jealous girl Walking by, she looks down as I kiss another I hold her hand And dry her tears Whisper a sweet word in her ear But she’s just another Jealous girl Don’t text her back Flirt with her friends Who cares, right? She’s only jealous Years gone by Bed’s gone cold And now here I am Writing about her Her blood has turned into ink Her sadness into love And I can’t help but wonder: Where the heck is my jealous girl?

Jealous Girl
He left me black and blue Inside and out They say words can’t hurt But that’s a lie Words can **** That’s no surprise He left me black and blue

A Mix of Colors
By 7pm I will get dressed in my night gown And leave the window open Like some corny movie form the 70’s I will hope you climb through my window and make love to me By 8:30 I might turn on the news and mute the TV just to pretend I care about the world At 9 I will turn my phone off, after checking 337 times if you have texted back When suddenly realizing you have not I will open the bottle of wine that’s hidden in my closet By 10:30 I will probably be too drunk to realize I am drunk So I will turn my phone back on And realize love life is lacking Or life at all By 11 you will have turned your phone off Probably annoyed at woman who keeps ringing Me By 11:15 I will surrender into my room Probably too drunk to stand on my own I will turn computer on and begin typing It’s 12:14 now. Wondering if sheep count drunk women as they fall asleep

Should Reconsider Sleeping Habits
I was too distracted by the green in your eyes That I forgot to hear your voice When it was calling her name And not mine
