We smoked our first cigarette together
And our first joint too,
The first time I got really drunk I was with you.
When I was with you life didn’t seem so bad,
Around you I never felt lonely or sad.
We listened to Bon Jovi and Tracy Chapman too
We liked all the oldies that no one else knew.
We finished each others sentences and each others smokes,
We listened to each others problems and laughed at each others jokes.
We swore to be friends till death do us apart,
You were like a sister to me, I gave you a piece of my heart.
Over the past few months our friendship has aged,
You avoid coming to see me you say that I’ve changed.
But what you don’t realize is you have changed too,
You don’t seem to be the same person that I once knew.
I need this old train to breakdown so that I can tell you the truth,
I’ve missed you everyday since I left, you’re more than a best friend you’re a sister…
I love you Dude…

You make me like myself
Amy Carmichael Sep 2012
Absorbed in conversation instantly
Intrigued to say the least
Music dancing singing blazing
That night was oh so sweet.
Dandelions and Mary Jane
Whisky and alcohol infused grape juice
Once dead trees but now alive
And bearing joyful fruits.
Sunsets on hills and sunlight through trees
My eyes are now open
I can finally see.
Long hair and blue eyes
With a confident smile
It’s the first time we’re meeting
Or has it been a while?
Gentle heart, loving soul
Why are you kind to me?
I’m nothing close to special
Yet you make me disagree…

Painfully inlove
Amy Carmichael Sep 2012
Theres nothing left to do
theres nothing left to say,
all the words are spoken for
it seems his feelings for her have changed.

Her heart is hurting more than ever
her bodies numb and weak,
shes losing grip on her life
shes bateling to breathe

Her pillows sopping wet
from the tears she cries at night,
she misses all the good times
it kills her when they fight.

Hes been gone a while now
and she cant take this its hell,
without him she is nothing
but a dried up empty well.

All she wants is for him to hold her
and say 'its gona be ok'
'I'm gona work this out'
dont worry i'l find a way'

Her heart is in a million pieces
and only he has the glue,
she loves this boy more than anything
i wish he only knew...

Depression
Amy Carmichael Sep 2012
ITS PULLING ME ITS PUSHING ME
ITS TEARING ME APART,
IT KICKING ME ITS PUNCHING ME
ITS SCRATCHING AT MY HEART.
ITS SLOWLY OPENING UP MY WOUNDS
THE ONES THAT TOOK SO LONG TO HEAL,
ITS HURTING ME SO BADLY
I NO LONGER BELIEVE ITS REAL.
I TRY TO HIDE THE PAIN I FEEL
AND PUT ON A SIMPLE SMILE,
IT DOES WORK, A FEW PEOPLE BELIEVE I’M HAPPY BUT ONLY FOR A WHILE.
WHY DOES IT WANT ME OF ALL PEOPLE?
WHY DOES IT LONG FO MY SOUL?
ITS ******* THE LIFE OUT OF MY BODY
AND LEAVING AN EMPTY BLACK HOLE…

Mom

Mom
My dearest mom you’ve left me
Standing all alone,
My bodies numb and weak
I don’t know my way home.

You left without a warning
You didn’t say goodbye,
We visited you on Sunday
You seemed happy you seemed fine.

Now I’m lying in this room
I’m missing you so much,
My heart begins to race
And the tears begin to rush.

I long to hear your voice
I long to see your smile,
All I want is to talk to you
Just for a little while.

You are the one that gave me life
Your blood flows through my veins,
From our thick hair to our pinkie toes
We are both the same.

I guess the big man needed you
So from this world you left,
But you didn’t leave empty handed
Our hearts are what you kept.

I don’t know how to move on
But I know you’d want me to,
I do know however that as long as I live
I will be missing you.

— The End —
