I tell you things my closest friends don't know
But it's not enough
I expose to you my fears and inner demons
But it's not enough
I tell you how much I struggle
But it's not enough
To you I list my hopes and dreams
But it's not enough
I look at you now and I want to cry
Because I know you will never be mine
No matter how much I pray
Or how much I try
I can't get you out of my mind
What will it take to be enough?

waiting for the rain
watching the ominous clouds
awaiting the oncoming storm
listening to the soft drizzle
rolling thunder booming
lightning crackling
simply waiting
it was coming
there was no stopping it

Oh my dear, how you've wandered so far
You walk day and night to forget who you are
You walk through the trees with the moon high above you
You walk with bare feet, the hard ground below you
You've traveled so far and you've traveled so wide
Yet you only have the sky, to whom you confide
The sun lights your path and the stars lead your way
You've walked over the earth and paved your own way
You've walked so many days
And so many nights
Now it's time to spread your wings
And finally take flight

If you ever looked in the mirror
And didn't like what you saw
If you ever looked in the mirror
And thought the lowest of yourself
If you ever looked in the mirror
And turned away in shame
If you ever looked in the mirror and cried
Know this
There is always someone
Someone who feels the same
Someone who knows where you've been
Someone who cares
Look at yourself in the mirror
Look at yourself and know
There is hope
No matter how broken and distorted
Your reflection may be
No matter how you see yourself
There will always be someone
Who sees you as you truely are
Beautiful

There are people who go around
Trying to make something
Of themselves
They try to become the best
They try to achieve
And some of them do
There are people who think
They can't make anything
Of themselves
They feel like they're the worst
And that they can't achieve
They don't feel like they can
But no matter
Who you are
Or where you're from
You have done something
Think back
To everyone you've known
How did you influence them?
Think back
Everyone
Just by being alive
Has made a difference
Even if
It's the smallest difference imaginable
You have changed the world
In your own special way

He finds me in the shadows,
Alone and silent,
Thinking about the day.
I think of my regrets
And the dues I still must pay;
For Sadness does not come cheap.
It takes away Joy
And steals Happiness too.
He sits with me in darkness,
Not knowing what to say,
But he need not speak a word
For all I need is him to stay.
He wipes away my tears,
And holds me in his arms.
Within this gentle warmth,
I can feel Hopelessness start to flee.
Because he's here with me.
He holds me close and tight.
He takes my hand and squeezes,
So now I can see the light.
The darkness starts to fade
All dark thoughts turn to dust
This is all I need
I just need him here with me

When I smile on my throne,
you will wonder
why the others cringe away in fear
pawns
When I laugh behind my hands,
you will wonder
why he shook so with rage
bishop
When I sleep at night,
you will wonder
why they stand guard by my bedside
knights
When I walk in the great hall,
you will wonder
why the others flee from my path
rooks
When I cry in the garden,
you will wonder
why he does not dry my tears
king
When I am silent at your graveside
you will wonder no more

Quietly watching the small flame
Flicking back and forth frantically
With the slightest breath
The wax is dripping
Pooling down below
Soon the light will run out
The wick will burn
And the wax will melt away
If the candle is gone, child
What now shall light your path?

The bustle of people
The joint between the teeth
The city comes alive
When the sun goes down
She blows out a circle of smoke
She's had the practice
Everyone tells her to stop
***** them all," she says
The moon is high in the sky
But no stars can be seen
There's too much smoke
So much smoke
She knows it's bad
That's the point
With each inhalation
She's closer to detonation
People walk by without a second glance
They've got everything on their minds
She's got one thought
Let this be the night
But it's just another night
Another night
Blowing smoke
In the city that comes alive
When the sun goes down

He looked down at the old town
As he stood atop the hill
He looked down at his home
And he knew it was over
She looked over at him
A single tear rolled down his face
She stood next to him and took his hand
And she could feel him start to shake
Sure, the world was ending
But, at least, they had each other
