My tears fell from the sky today.
First lightly, a slight tapping
Then they picked up
hammering on heads as
you hammered my heart.
I saw them fall where you always pulled up
Before you pulled out
They ate the sun and burped a grey shade as
heavy as my heart.
I lay in bed in the darkness, helpless, hopeless
Shedding tears in and outdoors
Thunderous roars of abandonment
A swarm of windshield wipers couldn't wipe away the desire to hold you
No rain boot known to existence to protect me from stepping into a situation that is bound to be painful.
I heard the population complain of the violent rain today
If I wasn't hiding in my bed
I'd tell them only you can stop the rain that falls from my face today

Emotional

People made me feel so empty
People made me feel so lost

People made me feel ugly
They filled me with self hate

And now I cry when I hear a song on the radio
That reminds me of the love that I lost long ago

And now I cry when I see friends holding hands
Reminding me of the ones I have loved and lost

I have never felt like I belonged anywhere
People called me names and pushed me away
Made me feel like I was to blame...

I have never felt any true love
Neither physical or emotional

No one ever made me feel fine
No one ever made me feel like
I had someone to call my own
No one ever truly stayed here
So now I drown my sorrows in
My tears that I've been savin'
Here

Its begins with the rights of the presumed good
And the wrongs of perceived sin
Clashing together over could and should
Words of pain, stabbed in order to win

Shouting and words, as sharp as a knife
Cutting through the memories we have
Sniping and hurting until there’s no life
Scared one day there will be nothing to save

The sun rises, bathing the life of light
Over the fading battle ground
Of the unmoving mouths, nothing more said
Over the slain strewn bodies of those now dead.

Let’s stop it now, before the battle has begun
Let the love prevail while we are young
Hold each other in the fear of the world
Not in the view of fear of the other.

You were here yesterday
Today you are gone
Tomorrow i cannot face
I cannot go on

Like the butterfly
You flew away
Leaving life behind you
Leaving me that day

You gave me a promise
When you landed on my palm
That wherever you may be
You’ll always look out for me

With that promise made
You fluttered away
Always remembered
In memory, in love
In laughter, in soul

You were here yesterday
Today you are gone
Tomorrow i shall face
I will make you proud to go on
This was for my Grandpa, who died suddenly on the 3rd of March 2012. On the day of his death I was walking and a butterfly fluttered straight toward me and landed on my palm , fluttered its wings for a few minutes and then flew off.

Not An Object

I am not something you own, no
I am a person who you're supposed to love
But I don't feel like you care
Seems like we're stuck in
A twisted love affair
We are both to blame
But you're the one
Who made me want to stay

Fooling me with those words
Convincing me with those lies

What am I supposed to do now?
I'm so attached to you, and I don't know why
You treat our love like a game
I truly love you
But you do not seem to feel the same

Don't you know that
That I am not an object
I have a human heart
And this heart
Has loved you
From the start

When you're older, and no longer wild
It makes you miss those days
when you were a small child
trying to find your place in this world
and to fit into this society of choice
where beauty means a lot
as well as intelligence
but a kind heart, not so much
