"Time will heal you",
is what they always say
Whenever you're hurt
and in so much pain

As time passes,
as the memories turn grey
The pain subsides
but never goes away

As time continues,
battle scars add up
You feel like quitting
but you never give up

Time will stop,
things will be better
No more agony,
only joy and laughter

I tried not to love you
so hard it almost destroyed me
The feeling of helplessness
is so annoying and consuming

I tried to hate you
so much but I still care
What's left for me to do now
is to stay away and disappear

I tried to be friends
in every way that I can
But your sweetness still gets through me
In my eyes, you're still a man

I tried to be cool about it
never let the feelings show
But my heart's pounding is strong
I don't think I can ever let this go

I tried to confess everything
free my self from this torture
I opened my mouth, no words came out
I guess what I need now is closure

I tried to forget and move on
Nothing will ever come out of this
I stared at you, you held my hand
Pulled me close and gave me a kiss

Nobody knew she was in pain
She smiles perfectly. All is the same.

She blends in the crowd. Just standing in the rain.
Her heart is breaking. Don't know who to blame.

She stares at people. Who doesn't know her name
She wonders if they notice. Her dying flame

She thought what if she disappears,
be forever in despair
Would anyone look for her? Would anybody care?

Should I leave or should I stay?
I ask my self all the time
If what we have is really worth it,
Why do these questions keep popping on my mind?

I have loved you and I still do
but things between us are not the same
I have to pack up all my courage
just to be able to say your name

The love I have is turning to hate
and you don’t even seem to notice
The affection we had is long gone
Its been replaced with hateful malice

I’m here to tell you, I am leaving
I can’t take this anymore
Its my decision, please respect it
I do believe I deserve more

The world is a strange place
I heard my self whisper
As I stared outside the window
and saw the roses start to wither

I know change is inevitable
Sometimes life is fast paced
But then why do I feel terrible
As if all good memories will be erased?

Two roads are right in front of me
Now I wonder which way to go
Whichever I choose I’m scared I’ll forget
And fear I’ll drown with sorrow

This is a phase I need to go through
I know it’ll make me strong
I just need to get over myself
And stop thinking my decision is wrong

What is real love?
I have often asked
Is it when you see each other
Share every moment without being asked?

Is it when you look into each other’s eyes
Holding your breath, exhale with a smile?
Is it when you hold that perfect someone
Make them feel safe even just for a while?

Is it when you kiss their tender lips
Pull them closer and never let go?
Is it promising them forever
Hold their hand tight, as if there’s no tomorrow?

It is somehow complicated
To know what real love is..
But I know what we have is love..
And its real.. And I’m glad that it exists.

I have lived with times like these all my life.
With troubled heart. Troubled mind.
I always find ways to ease the pain,
But like sickness with no cure, I still feel the same.

Times like these are always triggered by something,
And they always occur at the worst moments of thinking.
But I tell my self never to cry,
For one day I’ll find answers to the questions ‘why’

For now, I’ll take a deep breath.
Laugh with my friends, try hard to forget.
All the recurring nightmares that’s filling my head,
Will someday disappear and my struggles will end.
