I just want you
to be happy
but sometimes
and selfishly
I want to be
your happiness
But
'happiness is a choice'
you say
and you didn't choose me
I clung onto the idea
since you made me happy
it would be the same for you
What is happiness now?
where has it gone to?
In time, society has robbed us
the real meaning of happiness
Go on your own way
and pursue your happiness
for your smile, is my smile
your laugh, is my laugh
and I'll be happy
when you find your happiness
because I love you
always have, always will

summer nights
fairy lights
women rights
skinny tights
we ended up with
lovers' fights
plain as day
you took away
a sunshine ray
left me with
no words to say
feelings fade
a girl's parade
to hold her head high
and hide the mess you made

two fragile hearts made up of glass
everyone could see right through them both
only they themselves couldn't see the reality
both fell for each other
and whatever falls
will end up breaking
now those two once-glass hearts
shattered into a million emotional pieces
now those two once-glass hearts
will never find their missing parts
now those two once-glass hearts
have turned into nothing
but back into crushed sand

You see
A person only truly falls in love
Once in their life time
And once that time is used up
There is no more.
You can lie to yourself
And to others
But if you were truly in love with them
That love cannot be undone.
I am in love.
A love that won't go away
With my best friend.
I fell off
The bridge of love
And into the waters
Where he followed
But his love came with strings attached
A bungee
And he jumped back up
And left me sitting there in the waters
While he's up on the bridge
Calling me up there
While I'm wishing him down here
And I have no bungee.

Walking on a desolated street
During a summer twilight
Nothing but silence joins me
Until the night's impending arrival
On a faraway road
A beacon firmly stands
Flames begin to ignite within me
I crave for your light
Your flames are enthralling
Kiss the wicks at the end of my fingertips
Set me ablaze
Let me live once more
All pleas are in vain
Your flames dance on another's skin
I covet you entirely
But you do not wish to burn for me

Knees to chest, sitting on the floor
Slowly rocking forward to back
Breathing slowing and fading
I can not feel
The devil on the left says
"Do it. You'll feel again."
The devil on the right says
"End your pain. Take the jump."
Where is the angel
The angel who is suppose to save
The angel that will make me feel
Like I am of worth and I am okay
Either way
I am doomed to destruction
My sight changes to the devil
I look to the left
The lighter burns in my hand
Everything is slow motion
Slowly touching the flame
To my pale skin
A rush of relief
Runs through my bones
My heart pounding fast
My body becoming weak
The devil on the left says
"Don't you feel better?"
But I don't.
So I lay in bed
With a new battle wound
From a war I lost against myself
As I lay to sleep
I go back to where I once was
Lost
Alone
Afraid
Numb.

A person sits and cries
Knees together, holding her face
Lips quiver, and tears leak from cracks
Hide from the world
Not just a girl
But full grown
A woman, long
A clock clicks
Wordless in the night
It's not the precision preferred
Everything is not all right
It's face so pretty
Decorated with scrolls
Beautiful in architecture
It tells the time
But cannot really see inside
It's mind isn't shattered
It's still beautiful
Cogs, levers, springs and gears
It can only look at others
Knows something is wrong
It sees the world, all the other faces
Clocks themselves, faces hiding minds
Only hears the tick, click and tock
Sometimes it rains, humidity brings
Another tock, and knows it's off
Just one more tick
Make it work
One has to look past the face
See it's mind, complete
Not the pretty, but
Admire the precision
Mechanical beauty
Revenged emotional
Struggling time
Always trying so hard
Get through the hours
Minutes in seconds
Maybe it's ok, a little slow
A little fast, time makes time
Looking at clocks
Feeling only wrong
But it's the slow and fast
Moments between
When someday, it seems
That ticks and tocks
Patchwork healing
Shrugging, painful seconds
Keep perfect time
The other clocks
Faces hiding broken minds
Look to that grand Ol' tock
See only that it goes
Not its struggle
So in her hands
Tears slide down
Her woman's cheeks
All red, eyes puffy
A mind restrained
She hides her face, not
So all the other clocks
Can all go tick, tock
Click, whir
She only knows her
Ignoring the fact that
Her time is perfect
For everything he needs
Because the beauty of
Elegance is precession
His sense is timeless
Wonder not measured
For hours, creep
Minutes, tick
Seconds, wander
But altogether
She is everything
