With you
I am stronger
I like myself more
I feel alive in your arms
And when your happy
A wildfire of joy bursts
Within my very chest
Time with you
Pieces me back together
I was told that princes
Don't rescue
Princesses
And yet you rescued me
And deemed me worthy to be something
So much more than a damsel in distress
All those people who doubted we'd be together
Were so wonderfully wrong
Because here and now we prove
That love at first sight exists
And that teenage love
Can be the truest and happiest of everlasting loves
You and I were meant to be
Like Romeo and Juliet
Our love is overwhelming
And we have our obstacles
But unlike that tragic couple
We won't die
Not until our time
And we won't let anyone
Interfer with what we want most
Each other.
I felt bad because I was upset yesterday and I might be getting picked up early leaving him at school
We've all loved
And it's whether we grasped it
And held it close
Or forever let it fade
That determines the life we end up having.
I think I believe in fairy-tales
Because , well



*I believe so deeply in our happy ending.
I sit here alone
wondering where my life is
where it all went wrong
despair haunts me
how I got involved
why I lost what love is

The days go on
just one at a time
waiting for the
goodbye to all the anxiety
to anger with myself
for surely I have suffered enough
through all these months

left unprotected
so lost
lost by your embrace
haunted by your words
I search around everywhere
for the passion and hopes of life
searching for the day chaos
no longer in my head
perhaps I won't feel so lost

I feel I am finding my way

Then

I want to scream..all I want to do is scream
I want my anger to go away
but its like a blazing flame
I want my despair to leave me
but I am drowning in pain
I want my sanity back
but I don't know where to find it

I long to catch a fleeting bliss
A surging river in my veins
Flood my body with your tears
To wash away the emptiness
Take my breath from parted lips
Comforting impermanence
Summon me to clay and dirt
Swallow me in sweet embrace

She
She lights the way
On darkest morning
Gives to all
With no strings showing
The only reason
I keep going
Perhaps one day
I'll say hello

we're all different,
sort of like flowers.

there's dandelions,
roses,
carnations,
tulips,
sunflowers.

but most of all,
i think i resemble
the wallflower.

quiet,
secretive,
hidden
in the shadows.

but i know
something
they don't:

the quiet ones
are the ones
that always
have the most
to say.

we're not this worthless piece of a soul floating around
and inhabiting one's body
this body is just something temporary for our souls,
our true beings to occupy for a bit of time
we are more than this ***** filled and flesh covered beings
we are made out to be
we are more than what we think
and what our minds will ever let us to believe
we were all made, and created,
and brought alive for a special purpose
that we may not ever know in our lifetime
we were made to affect, and to change, and to love
and to feel and to think
there's always a little bit more to us
then we could ever imagine or dream
no matter how bright we think we are,
we're always a little bit brighter
no matter how shy we think we are,
we're always a little more outgoing
no matter how heartless we think we are,
we're always a little more loving
no matter how brutal we think we are,
we're always a little more gentle
no matter how much that we think we are worthless
and that we are nothing
and that we are unwanted
and that we're not special or loved
we are
because we're more than that
so much more
we will always be more
and i don't think anyone will ever comprehend their true selves.
because we're just too tragically beautiful
for anyone to ever understand
