Get yourself a chronic illness.
You will get frustrated with the pain,
And you will start to be aggressive towards the people you most love.
They don't understand & that's okay, because you don't wish this on nobody.
But you hope that they will understand you.
You fight with them until the picture of them fades in the distance.

Then you are alone on the journey fighting your own body . . .
Feeling like I am loosing you.
They tell me
He's not right
good enough for you
not to hurt you
like that

I know the way
you are
I love you
but you
love her

The moment I
Laid eyes on you
I was caught
In your sticky web,
I held taut

The strings of
my heart still sing
when you call
me, but I know
It's not me

It's not me
It can't happen
Not I
You love her
But why

Her and not me?
OK
So you're
Telling me
You're mad

Cause she
Kissed the
Guy you
Like

Well wait
A minute
We can't

Kiss any
guys (Without
your consent)

But you
Can kiss
anyone you
Like

No matter
Who else
Likes him

Wait a
Minute, I
Like this
Guy too

I'm not
Mad, just
A little
Sad

So why
Are you
So angry
At this

Other girl
Your friend
Cause all
Is fair

In love
and war
I have
Feelings too

I like
The guy
You now
Like

And you're
Gonna kiss
Him.
Still.

Did you
Ever think
That might
Hurt me

Like she
Hurt you
When she
Kissed him

Wait a minute.
That's not right.
Jumping, leaping off the dock
My legs are frozen cold with shock

Coach says "Hurry, hurry, warm up quick"
I want to hit him with a stick

The sun shines bright into my eyes
Even before I attempt to try

To put my goggles on

Watch the sunrise soar up high,
Hurling sunbeams through the sky

Wonder if in years from now
To the sun, the moon will still bow


Hopping, dropping off the dock
Legs are frozen cold with shock

Son says hurry, then he swims so quick
I want to hit him with a stick

The sun shines bright into my eyes
Before I even attempt to try

To put my goggles on

Watch the sunrise soar up high
Tossing sunbeams through the sky

Know that now, in years from now
The moon will always bow
To the sun
Swimming is a lifelong sport.
Make use of it because I love it!
My friends, they sit and glare,
About who has the chance
To strike up something with him
Maybe a little romance

While I just stand by
An tears fall from my eyes
I know he'll never like me,
So why do I even try?
Twirling, leaping
Down.

Frosty flakes drifting
No frown.

Grin spreads wide
Across the sky.

Crystals fall into my hair
Adorn it with the greatest care.

Snow.
Twinkle twinkle little star
I know what you really are.

You set me high up in the sky
Gazed at me with perfect eyes.

We talked late into the night
I even thought you just might

Love me too,
The way I do you

Then you left, and with a frown
Allowed me to come crashing down.
Hoping, wanting
Those immature sensations

From so long ago
To come back

To be a child again,
Playing in the rain

To have nothing more
To worry about than

My friend brought a
Frog to school!

Wishing back the years
Holding back the tears

We only get one shot
This is all we got

Make it or
Leave it

Love or hate it
It's life, live it.
Live life, love it. It's the only one you get.
There are days one feels dead to everything
but eternity and poetry
