Oh what messes we create,
when we are a mess ourselves.
Contented to sit and wait
with our lives upon the shelves.
With shut eyes we wander far
stumbling through the dark.
Wishing on a distant star,
Ignoring what is in our heart.
So why sit idle while time goes by
And look back with wonder, on what was missed
Why not take the joy, and fly
Instead of blinded, with clenched fists?

One sure thing in this life is true,
Everything changes, and so do you.
The course of time will take it toll,
make you weak, or make you whole.
You choose and decide that fate,
with what you sit, and contimplate,
I myself don't have all the answers,
I just learn from my fellow advancers.
I look at everything as a learning opportunity,
good or bad it joins in unity,
Into all the knowledge I've gathered and who I've become,
based off what rules me and what I've overcome.

My life has changed in the blink of an eye
and as I look back at the years drifting by
I sit and ask myself -
Why?

Why would you go and worry about that
when the answer was right under your hat
when you could have just smiled --
and relaxed

Why did I let those years pass by so fast
why not make every moment last
I look back and just see time --
Passed

Now I wonder what I am doing with my time
Just idling by and making a rhyme
Or am I making moves to
Climb

How long will I sit and ask myself why
How long will I just merely "Try"
Will I just ask away, and let my time
Fly?

Take the depth of the sea
and the bark of the wise oak tree
Mix them in a mold
And they make your eyes
Looking at me.

Take the midnight sky,
With the stars and how they shine
Spin them on a wheel
And it is your hair,
sleek and fine

Take the volcanos heat
and a bakery sweet
stir it up together
and its your heart beat

Take a satin muave
and the greatest salve
shake it up
and you get your voice
so suave

This is what I see when I look at you
All I'd need to carry me through
My life well spent by your side
Neither of us, ever having to hide

And I can hear your heart beating
Though I am so far from home
You carried my heart with you
and it shall never roam.
For my one true love. Joshua.

I was the victim.
I was the beaten.
I was the ravaged.
I was forsaken.

I had no faith.
I had no strength.
I put the smile on to cover it...

But now... Something has changed..
I never felt this way.

I am happy.
I am strong.
I am faith-full.
I am me.

I let go of fear
I let go of blame
I let go of anger
I let go of shame

I let myself see
The value in me.

Oh you boy,
Can't you see...
Can't you see what you're doing
Look at your heart,
look at your mind
Only YOU can change it.

You hold the anger, you hold those judgements...
against everyone, and mainly yourself...
Take it from someone who knows...
You have to let go,
You have to forgive
You have to take your life and LIVE
You can't just wait,
For someone to save you...


You and I have grown...
Over the past year, we have grown together.
and the most mature thing,
You have ever said...
was "I'm not ready"

Oh the things you have shown me!
Oh the revelations I've had!
Thank you THANK YOU
for being who you are!

For the good times and the bad!
For the Loving, for the Leaving
For the knowledge, and even grieving...
The tears helped to show me
That I could live without fear...
The pain, helped me get over, the fear of pain itself.

I am happy for you,
I am happy for me
I am happy for the relief!

Don't be feel sad, Don't feel strange
We love one another... its just the wrong time...
We are so young yet, my love...
Lets be the friends that we haven't had the time to be...
Let you be you, and me be me...

The summer rain comes drumming
in a ballad upon my skin
washing away an old life
a life plagued with sin

I walk a little straighter
with my head again held high
Insted of it bowing low
to who ever passes by

Now I am unafraid
of who I am today
and I feel fear of the past
slowly slip away

you no longer blight my dreams
that caused me strife
and caused me misery
I moved on with my life
