It has been about a year Since I saw you last And yet I still think of the past And when I do, I fight tears. We were such good friends I never once thought There would be an end But I can no longer pretend The memories consume me They set fire to my heart And it burns It's nearly in ashes. The pain they cause, has become too much. I have to say goodbye. I will always love you all But I can not do this any more. I have tried And cried And reached out to you But I get not one single reply And I am left wondering why A question that burns a hole In my heart It has tore me apart It is time I walk away I can longer stay I don't know what to say... You were amazing You were always there The ones who always cared I gave you a piece of me Do not worry, You can keep it. You were my best friends... But now I have to say Goodbye. Goodbye Cole. Goodbye Trevor. Goodbye Edward. Goodbye

Goodbye Old Friends
I miss you. I miss us. What happened? I woke up one day and you just were never the same You're supposed to be the one to stay true My bestfriend till the end With you I never had to pretend. But now, you no longer even respond to the messages I send. I understand, you have a girlfriend But... Wasn't I here first? You pushed me aside After the hell we've been thru After all these years And nothing You make me want to shed so many tears... We were supposed to grow old We were supposed to be bold But now that things have changed, I feel like our friendship has been sold You used to be the one I could rely on... Now.. Now I'm left alone And I add your name to the list... The list of broken promises

You're gone...
Sitting here Reflecting over my life All I've ever wanted is to help Is to make a difference To lend a hand To bring a smile where there has not been one. All I've wanted to do is bring a little light to the darkness Shine through the darkness that embraces us all To show that there is hope To show that you can make it. To show them my scars and say that the cuts I've received have only made me stronger To show that at the end of it all you can have the last word All I want is to make a positive change in someone's life To make a person smile would be like bringing a little life from the ever fading flower To make a person laugh when they don't feel as though they can would be like the first rain after a long drought But as I sit here I wonder if I've done that. If I have I feel like I haven't done enough...

My thoughts...
As the skies darkened with each passing moment I ran inside A place to hide Slammed the door shut Soon after the pounding began I stood there braced against the entrance The door being ripped apart but not being budged I go to the place where I can get peace of mind The longer I stand there, the more the pounding ceases to be heard. Soon it stops I'm free from the emotions and thoughts chasing after me Left with a numbness How can I ever leave this place now? If I let them in I'll surly be torn apart If I wish to face them...how do I start?

Running
A lie can be as beautiful as a freshly cut rose Beautiful and full of appeal But after Some time the petals once so full color begin to fade... The rose begins to wilt And so you begin to ask questions Suddenly things don't make sense Suddenly it isn't as beautiful anymore And so, as with time all things die. The rose starts to decay And that's when you begin to say: You want the truth. Because the lie holds no beauty and you've come to accept it as it is And so soon the truth is reveal

A lie...
If emotions were colors I'd have many options to choose from I would paint on the canvas set before me I would paint away until I had nothing Giving my all I would use my hands I would use a brush I would do it in a hurry, an overwhelming rush I would take my time, set a pace With all these emotions come twice the thoughts You would see great things You would see things that would shatter your heart You would see who I am Who I want to be You see I wouldn't hide my colors No, if emotions were colors, I'd paint the world And you would see, a little piece of me.

If emotions were colors..
I feel like a flower Hidden in the desert Left there, for the one who looks closer Many rush In their hurry I'm the one they almost crush I feel like a flower Hidden in the desert Left for the one who doesn't mind the heat Left for the one who doesn't mind the cold Left for the one who really is bold. I feel like a flower Who is ready to bloom once more Who is ready to embrace what ever life brings

I feel like a flower
With each passing day My emotions seem to sway A heart that was shattered So beat and tattered. I picked up the pieces What was left of it anyway I thought all was left was nothing but dust I managed to find what ever was left behind I no longer had a heart, those were the thoughts in my mind It felt like I was left in the dark. I thought I went blind. But the sun seems to be peeking. Breaking through the pitch black It came so sudden I thought I was attacked But the warmth that I felt Seemed to defrost, seemed to make me melt There came such a feeling It was quite Revealing I forgot how to feel. And now that I can, it is so surreal

Sunshine
As the sun rises And the world comes alive I can't but help breathe a sigh Everything that was once dormant is now lively Dark turns light The cold embrace is slowly letting It's grip go And the blood in my veins begins to flow The darkness held me captive for too long I lost my strength, I no longer feel strong. But I will surely continue to go on
