I Try

I try to hold back tears
As I think of you.
I try to forget about you,
But I see you almost everyday.
I try and try,
But each day I am mesmerized by your lovely blue eyes.

Darling, Why

Darling, why did you have to leave?
Darling, why did you tell me at you loved me?
Darling, why?
Darling, why do I miss you still?
Darling, why do I want you back?
Darling, please tell me why?

Hey, Darling

Hey, Darling.
Its been almost a whole month
And I have done nothing but cry.
I wish I could have said goodbye.
I wish I could have helped you.

Hey, Darling.
Its been almost a whole month
And I want you back.
You understood my life.
You understood what it was like to be me.

Hey, Darling.
Its been almost a whole month
And I miss you so much.
Its taking all my strength not to join you.
Its taking all my strength to keep on living.

Opposites

Yin and yang.
Night and day.
Dark and light.
Water and fire.
Moon and sun.
Cold and heat.
Death and life

We live in a world of opposites.

Just Go Away

Breath.
Just breath.
Maybe it will all go away.

Just continue on with your life.
Just ignore all the harm you face.
And hope that it will all just go away.

Hide the bruises.
Hide the pain.
And wish that it will all go away.

Hide the tears.
Hide the whimpers.
Please make it all go away.

Shy away from the swinging fist.
Flinch away from every touch.
Why won't it all just go away?

What Did I Do

What did I do to deserve you?
Are you blind or stupid or crazy for sticking around?

What did I do to deserve your love?
That's right, I don't deserve it.

What did I do to deserve your attention?
I don't deserve anything from you.

Please tell me what I did!
I need to find out.

I Used To

I used to burn as brightly as the sun,
Until that light got extinguished.

I used to love,
Until my heart got shattered.

I used to be happy,
Until I saw your true colors.

I used to wish on a star,
Until I realised that it would not make a difference.

I used to be a writer,
Until you told me what I really was.
