It is better that I left sooner,
sooner rather than later.

I wanted more,
more than you could give me.

You had one to may secrets, were too afraid of being vulnerable.  I am now that way too.
I always thought you were just stubborn, didn't love me in anyway, but now I know the truth.
You told me I was the child wife, never wanting to speak of anything strong, but you were wrong.
You were the child restricting my speech, it is something I'd never believe, but you wanted to make me leave.
I could speak on no serious matter, because of the words I knew you'd soon speak, it was hard to think.
I wanted to speak politics, future plans,  literature strong and true.
But you my friend, made me afraid, of the things I always wanted to do.

We have all been together,
for so very long.
We have made each other weak,
inspired each other to be strong.

Now everybody's running,
heading different ways.
But when the clouds break,
we pause and admire the sun's rays.

We are all one,
For a brief moment.
Just trying our best,
searching for life's  fufilment.

A new chapter has been started,
a book has been read.
This happens all the time,
a new idea has been bred.

That doesn't mean we won't remember,
the times we have spent.
All the hearts broken,
and advice lent.

An adventure has started,
we can conquer brand new things.
It is now the time to fly,
we all can spread our wings.

Not telling you,
you were wrong.

Not saying I,
I was right.

I am just to tired now,
no longer want to fight.

Rising from the ground,
feet planted steady.

Head up to the sky,
I was born ready.

I am no longer afraid,
of not being the best.

It is time to take a stand,
and give my mind a rest.

Fight for what I need,
earn what I want.

Deal with what comes,
be brighter than the sun.

Nap
Blankets so warm.
Sheets so soft.
Pages of a new book will soon be worn,
laying here in my loft.

It's time for a nap,
what can I say?
After reading a comic,
why can't all days come this way.

To preserve whats left of my strength,
I need a little rest.
A few hours of closing my eyes,
so this evening I can give it my best.

We used to have an old tea ***,
we drank from it,
a hell of a lot.

We once had a tree of dreams,
growing steadily,
bursting with leaves.

Where did that go?

What happened,
happened to us?
I'm not trying to make a big fuss.

Finding someone to fall for,
wasn't hard to do.
One look a him,
and it was true.

He made feel safe, welcomed,
and warm.
He made my wounds,
seem as if they were never torn.

One day I found,
I couldn't recognize me.
The person I looked at,
once was free.

She had so many hope and dreams,
so many aspirations.
She was going to be strong,
save this great Nation.

But she was gone,
never to be safe and sound.
I had to get her back you see,
by fading away to relieve the pressure by the pound.


I didn't leave you for anyone else,
I left you for myself.
