There she goes, pure as snow,
Just trying to get by in life.
Here you come, mean as a ****,
So eager to dim her bright light.

I see that sneer upon your face,
That devilish little grin.
From afar you look like such a saint,
But something evil dwells within.

She pretends your words don't hurt her,
But I know they tear her apart.
I can tell you're killing her slowly.
You're shredding her fragile heart.

You stab her with your words,
And you call her filthy names.
You tell her that she doesn't matter
And laugh at her terrified face.

She tries to shield off your words.
She tries to keep going her way.
She's lost, both inside and out.
She longs for an escape.

She runs, yet you still follow.
You cackle just like a witch.
Only I know what she's planning
As she heads straight for the bridge!

"Oh no," I whisper. "Please don't." I whisper
As my eyes fill with tears.
I scream, "I think you're beautiful!"
But it falls on broken ears.

Here you come, mean as a ****,
And you pull her last string.
There she goes, pure as snow,
Tumbling down a hundred feet.

She doesn't even scream;
She just soars into the dark.
Your grip is finally off
Of her tired and long bruised heart.

I wish she hadn't done it.
It haunts me every day
To see the sad angel face,
To watch her go that way.

I turn to you as you take in a gasp
And tumble to the floor.
You didn't think she'd do it,
That your words could slam her doors.

Well, I hope you're happy.
You drove her quite insane.
I yell, "I hope you're happy!"
You snatched her life away!

She had so much going for her;
I hope you're happy that it's all gone!
To her, I say, "Hope you liked the free fall
And that in Heaven you're better off."

I wish I could have caught her
And saved her on that day.
You wish you would have stopped her
Because regret now floods your veins.

There she goes, pure as snow,
Just trying to get by in life.
Here you come, mean as a ****,
So eager to dim her bright light.
A little something from my freshman year of high school. Nothing special, just commenting on my surroundings.

Don't become too proud of the work that you display.
Overfeeding your ego will cause your merit to decay.
You mustn't starve your modesty or **** self criticism.
It's only when you're humble that your work is worth the listen.
True beauty comes from the sharing of feelings, not the seeking of praise. We're all struggling together; none of us are perfect. A big head will keep you from embedding grace in your work and appreciating it in others.

Hold me when you're breaking, and I'll help you stay together.
Tell me when you're hurting, and I'll grab my tickling feather.
Grab me when you're angry, and I'll whisper away the pain.
Stop me when you're jealous, and my eyes will never stray.
Call me when you're proud, and my smile will keep you humble.
Taunt me when you're hungry, and I'll come right back with doubles.
Kiss me when you're cold, and my breath will warm your heart.
Love me when you're lonely, and our souls will never part.

You've got me under your spell with no intentions to leave.
I'm all yours for the taking, just show me what you need.
The idea of sharing this to the person I love as part of my vows on my wedding day warms my heart and makes me want to cry.

A firefly is what I'll be
If ever you stop loving me
I'll roam the earth in the darkest night
And spread the brightest light
That's no longer behind my eyes

My mouth is sour with the taste of your love.

Don't feed me poisoned love.

I'd rather a poisoned dagger, or apple,

But never poisoned love.

If the bitter bite stains my taste buds and you're the one to blame,

I may never love again.

You know
I have a mind of my own.
I promise you it works fine.
You know
I have endless ideas.
I promise you they're all mine.

But when you lead I follow
And when you speak I follow
And where you look I follow
And where you walk I follow.

Even though I never know
Where your path will lead,
My body can't help but follow you
Like my heart can't help but beat.

I don't know why and don't ask me why
I fail to take the lead
Or speak when I want
Or look where I want
Or walk where I want.

I promise you
I have a mind of my own!
You know it works just fine!
I promise you
I have endless ideas!
Please believe that they're all mine.

They're beautiful and creative and honest and unique.
I long to share them, but I don't know how.
I don't know who will teach.

So
I'll just do what I've always done.
I'll follow your lead.
Like I've always done.
Not my favorite, but might as well share.
