Convince me that what you see is truly a reflection of me
Am I all that you think me to be or is this just a fantasy
Never truly knowing what lies deep within    
Determined to discover is there more to this gem
Introverted to the core but quickly clawing out
Curious to see things from a third person view
Exactly what would I see if I looked at me like you do

Fierce combat in an unknown land
One winner, may the best man withstand
Race against the elements, surrounded by foes
The battle is underway, stock up on ammo
Navigate the grounds, try to stay out of sight
If spotted be prepared for a brutal fight
Time nears the end only two remain
Everything fades black that’s the end of the game

The smell of dew lingers in the air
All around me is deserted except there’s you
The only sound we can hear
Is the sound of the rain as it seeps through

Watching the water as it falls from the sky
Our clothes becoming damp, but we don’t care
Engrossed in the nothingness, I stare in your eyes
Trying to understand your deepest fears

Can we stay like this forever?
Can the rain never go away?
For I fear when the rain is severed,
This feeling, this moment may not stay

How I love the raw emotion
As we both bear our souls
A moment to share our devotion,
To be free and lose control

Hear the trees as they blow
Feel the chill as it sets in
Here we sit in this shadow
With no desire for this to end

Just being here next to you
It feels like everything will be alright
Just sitting here among the rainy dew
Becoming one with the night

There was a boy who loved to play games
He met a girl, fell in love, it’s a shame
They spoke with such grace
But never met face to face
Of his love, no one knows what became

Every day I sit in chem class,
I fall asleep who knows how I pass
I eat lots of snacks
And take short cat nap
The only thing Noble 'bout me is a gas

I lay in the dark under your blanket of warmth
Tears trickle out of my eyes
Overcome with emotions, passion, and desire
Searching for the truth in the lies

Feeling the pain in every word you sang
The sounds vibrate through and through
I replay every phase you've said
Anything to feel closer to you

I feel the weight aching deep within
Deep down inside my core
I close my eyes looking for answers
But instead of answers my questions grow more

Here I shall just lay in this sweet surrender
Leaving my heart exposed and raw
Emotions so true are rare for me
So tonight, I welcome them all

(read forward, then backward, line by line)

I ran.
Not knowing what else to do
There was so much blood on my hands
It was mine
The kitchen knife
Caught in my chest
Guilt
Consumed by
Fear
I was heightened by
Adrenaline
But running on
Wasn’t enough
While trying to stay calm,
Losing control
It was me that would end up
Dead. Because
He was
In front of me
The whole time
It was too late
Trapped
I found myself
Locked in chains
My fate was
Death.
