Tears run from cheek to sleeve. Blame me, but you chose to leave. You're still texting me. Those 3 words you breathe.
   I close my eyes see your beauty in my mind. I can't  describe how I feel inside it won't stop. I'm praying, wishing the pain would go away.
   I just can't pretend. It's the end. If we are friends, can we mend it for us? It's up to you.
    I can't breathe these words I can't speak because I've never been in love
You're my first I'm feeling empty inside, my eyes get blurry I can't survive without you.
   I know your cautious and scared what we gonna do. Our hearts have never been broken before, but your so unsure. I promise I wont let us fall we're good together
   Please don't throw it away I wont say you gotta say.
  You're my one and only I don't wanna let you go just breathe don't cry. You are so beautiful, don't be afraid I'll  be with you through it all.
     I'll be the hand to catch you if you fall I see you have only the two of us together. No matter how hard they try to tear us apart they can't.
    You never want us to be happy at all she can take on the world united forever its your call.
   Tears run from cheek to sleeve. Blame me, but you chose to leave. You're still texting me.  Those 3 words you breathe.
    Why don't we spend a little time together? We both know this could last forever.
    Since day one you stole my heart, because I die every time we're apart.
   Tears run from cheek to sleeve. Blame me, but you chose to leave. You're still texting me. Those 3 words you breathe.
   So,  it's up to you.
   So, its up to you to breathe those words.

Does it make you feel good to make me feel small? When you're pushing me down, does it make you feel tall?
     Pointing out my flaws cause you wanna erase them all.
    Does it make you feel good to make me feel small?
   Betcha didn't think I knew what I was made of. Thought I would lay down,  I wouldn't stand up
   Well listen up cause you got it all wrong. This is for you.
I'm not a paper doll. You can't make me what you want. You just build me up and tear me down.
   Enough's enough. Go, leave me alone. Cut me down but I won't fall. I'm not a paper doll.
    Did somebody make you feel invisible? Is it true hurt people hurt people?
     The way you hate and break. It don't make any sense at all, but you're not gonna make me feel invisible.
   Betcha didn't think I knew what I was made of. Thought I would lay down, I wouldn't stand up.
   Well listen up cause you got it all wrong. This is for you.
   You'd love it if you crumble me up, in the palm of your hands. Well, I bet that *****, because now you know you can't.
  Does it make you feel good to make me feel small? When you're pushing me down, does it make you feel tall?
   I'm not a paper doll. You can't make me what you want. You just build me up and tear me down.
   Enough's enough. Go, leave me alone. Cut me down, but I won't fall.

   I'm not a paper doll.
This is for my high school bullies. That was pretty some hard times.

There's this girl I know, she feels unknown.  Just wants to have attention, cries on her own. She's got nobody to go to she feels so scared
    She doesn't want to go to school, cries in her bed. She got a couple friends they think she's okay. Inside the pain haunts her, day-by-day.
She still hasn't given up, she doesn't see the point. She just wants happiness but emotions disappoint. She blames herself, it drives her mad, for every single little trouble that she's ever had
    The pain she endures you can see it through her shirt. Bearing the scars of society's burns.
    No more pain. No more tears. There's no need to cry no more there's nothing left to fear.
    No more pain. No more tears. You don't need to lie no more, because you know we're here.
   She hides herself, no one hears her cries. If only you could see the world through her eyes.
    All she wanted, is one little friend to stick by her til the very end. She didn't ask for a lot, in fact nothing at all.
   She was still hit around and called a fool. She didn't wanna fight. She just wanted some love.
     When she was lonely just one hug and to feel like she was accepted, instead of being pushed around, left out and rejected.
    You gotta stay strong nothing lasts forever. You're  never alone, we'll do this together.
  She can't take it no more. She's taken enough. She's been strong for so long, but she ain't that tough.
   She's scared of letting go but no one seems to care.  She's scared to carry on, because there's  no one there.
    A frustrated girl, bearing the scars. She's fighting her fears behind spiritual bars.
   With this girl, I saw her face. She messed it with a smile- I could tell it was fake.
     She broke down in tears, said I saved her life. As she cried, she asked, "Can I be your friend?"
    I answered, "Hey there girl, tell me what is wrong?" She told me everything so I dedicate this poem.
   No more pain. Don't cry. No more tears. No more tears running down your face. There's no need to cry no more there's nothing left to fear. No more pain.
   No more pain.No more tears. You don't need to lie no more, because now you know we're here.

  No more...
I got bullied my first and last years in high school. Then some of my friends that are a year younger then me and are still in high school, called me, one-by-one, late each night, crying, asking me to come over. I would throw on a pair of jeans, a t-shirt, and I grabbed a hoodie, and my bear up converses and took off.
   "I'm getting bullied and I don't know what to do," that's all they would say to me. And it broke my heart, knowing I went through it myself and just remmebing how bad it was. I went through the process with them and helped them through.
    Now, they're still afraid, but at least they're focusing on their studies and laying low. Sometimes, they would be sneaking a text or two to me, and I would just give them encouragements for the day.

Merrily we fall. Out of line, out of line. I’d fall anywhere with you. I’m by your side.
    Swinging in the rain. Humming melodies. We're not going anywhere until we freeze.
    Forever is a long time, but I wouldn't mind spending it by your side.
    Carefully we're placed for our destiny. You came and you took this heart, and set it free. Every word you write or sing is so warm to me, so warm to me. I’m torn, I’m torn to be right where you are.
  I’m not afraid, anymore. I’m not afraid.
   You so know me. Pinch me gently. I can hardly breathe.
   Forever is a long, long time, but I wouldn't mind spending it by your side. Tell me everyday I get to wake up to that smile, I wouldn't mind it at all.

When I wake up to your footsteps, as you get up out of bed. They make a song that sounds so simple, but it dances in my head. A melody so perfect that it gets me through the day and the thought of us forever is one that won't ever go away.
   All I need to know is where to start. Take my hand and show me forever, so never will I ever let you go.
   So let's hold on together, to this paper and this pen and write down every letter to every word we've ever said.
   Let's write our story and let's sing our song. Let's hang our pictures on the wall. All these precious moments  that we carved in stone; Are the only memories after all.
   Memories after all.
   You know, you gave me hope, but I've got to let go. I've got to let go.
   It's taking its toll, deep in my soul. Now I've got to let go.
   We wrote our story and we sang our songs. We hung our pictures on the wall.
   Now those precious moments, that we carved in stone; Are the only memories after all.

I won't lie to you. I know he's just not right for you, and you can tell me if I'm, but I see it on your face, when you say that she's the one that you want, and you're spending all your time, in this wrong situation, and anytime you want it to stop.
     I'll stop time for you, the second you say you'd like me too. I just wanna give you the love that you're missing.      Just to wake up with you, would be everything I need, and this could be so different. Tell me what you want to do. I know I can treat you better, better than she can.
     Better than she can.
     Give me a sign, take my hand, we'll be fine. I promise I won't let you down; Just know that you don't, have to do this alone. Promise I'll never let you down.
   'Cause I know I can treat you better than she can, and any gentleman like you deserves a girl. Tell me why are we wasting time, on all your wasted tears, when you should be with me instead. I know I can treat you better, better than she can.


Better than she can..

I'm wild somedays, but I'm loyal. I know you think I'm coming undone, but there's no need, no need to be afraid.
  'Cause when the night falls, your love puts me back on the wall. Puts me back on the wall.
   You're intoxicating, but you're so **** complicated. I want to see coming undone; After all this time that I've been waiting.
  So just let it go for a minute. If you're feeling cold, let it hit ya, we want to feel emotion so let's feel it.
  When darkness comes to you, you don't have to worry, imma be the one to stay. When darkness comes to you, you don't have to worry. Imma be the one to stay.
  'Cause when the night falls, your love puts me back on the wall. 'Cause your love puts me back on the wall.
  So just let it go for a minute. If you're feeling cold, let it hit ya. We want to feel emotion so let's feel it; Puts me back on the wall.
Puts me back on the wall...
