Ah, the earth and her brilliant beauty
radiating life, such a beautiful perfect circle
everlasting, eternal
how I love you, adore you
but then I see this, humanity
corrupted, angry, power hungry and so full of hate
and my heart bleeds
why is it we cannot live equally
share all the world and the love it has to offer
money? religion? human nature?
God, why can we not all look beyond it
children dying, innocents left bleeding on the streets
innocents who wanted no part in your war
and you took the one life they had and ripped it away
when all they wanted was love, security, peace
a child of all things
wanting to wake and play in the streets
knowing naught of why there is so much hatred
or even for that matter, what hate  is
so how do innocents become so hate filled
indoctrination, it is taught
I do not believe we are born so filled with this horror
so what is so hard about going beyond this
people full of love these days so rare to find
ones that dream of coexistence
why is this?
do they ignore the idea?
are they blind?
or do they just not care?
content to live in a world
a world where people are shot down
I know they see it
I know they know of it
how does their heart not bleed like mine
they see pictures, hear it on the news
whether they knew them or not their story is real
their suffering, their pain
it is heartbreaking
it is unfair
I know I do not have it so hard
but I see their lives riddled with suffering
and I feel I know them
I want to reach for them
save them all and I cannot
tearing at every fabric of my being
I feel so far from being real
when I speak of this and people say don't think about it
how the hell can I not?
I exist within this world
this world so fueled by hate and anger
how can I ignore others pain
why am I finding myself weeping daily
for someone I never knew
I knew their pain
I knew how unfair their life was
so why do I feel so alone in this feeling
humanity you are tearing my soul to pieces

I want to, but struggle
To write about this thing called love
Relating so much more to despair
Having felt it for so long
So used to living in loneliness

I want love
or do I?
What is it I want
So long having been a shell
That I forgot what it is to be alive

So how is it
How does one express love
Using a piece of paper
It just isn't enough
When despair falls so freely

See, very few words can express love
If any
Words are not enough for love
But despair, oh despair
How you mock me
I could speak of you for eons
Despair, so infinitely defined by any word

So again I ask
How does a poet speak of love
With so much despair outside looking in

Everyone knows that she's not like others
She's an outcast in this cold broken place
Suppressing her true self til' it smothers
As she walks around here and hides her face

She wants to fit in, be able to gleam
And be a part of every single crowd
But she can't, she holds it in til' she screams
And above her head there's always a shroud

Sadly, she walks through the halls, her head down
Others watching her with a sinful sneer
She turns away and wishes she could drown
All that stops her from coming out is fear

What would they do if she held her head high
She'll never know, she just lets them pass by

Tender boughs reaching 'round
Damp earth, smell so sweet
Nature speaking of her emotion
Echoing where true beauty does lie
It is here I wish to die
When I do so
Away from reality
Walking amidst my own dream

Pitiful, she's alone on the inside
Cold hard hands trace the outline of her heart
Awaiting the day the pain will subside
Soon with luck the hands may rip her apart

Life is so hopeless, life is so loveless
Standing alone at the edge of a cliff
All she wanted was to feels loves caress
Someone can save her, they just don't know it

Tears flow endlessly down her cold, pale cheeks
She has given up, no happiness here
Staring around at the world 'o so bleak
It's time to jump, her heart clenches in fear

Someone please save her, please give her your hand
Take the pain that has scarred her like a brand

Of a mood
fleeting
crouch down
eyes filled with ferocity
and
pounce
take that which is mine
and succeed
let the fire feed
impossible to lead an army alone
can you lead yourself into an abyss
still finding a foothold
to climb to the top
and conquer
screaming the whole way
the truth
honesty is mine
no more lies

Braveheart, you are my Braveheart
Take me in your arms
You are my Braveheart

Fighting so we can be free
Fighting for our dignity
Fighting for the truth and then
We can go and live again

Fighting for the way that's right
Fighting for our truth at night
Fighting up until the dawn
He won't stop until he's won

This is where he's going to start
This is my one true Braveheart

Braveheart, you are my Braveheart
Hold me in your arms
You are my Braveheart
Braveheart, you are my Braveheart
Hold me in your arms
You are my Braveheart

I know you don't wish to come
where the spirits fly and we all let go
I know you don't wish to come
but I will take you there
pull you from your cloud so high
where the wind whispers tragedies
I know you don't wish to come
but not to see is a travesty

won't you please come with me
take my hand
one day you'll see
it was worth it all in the end
when you finally let love descend

It's beautiful here where the sky meets the sea
even blades of grass muster a smile
I know you don't wish to come
but I will take you there
from this view you'll never wish to flee
let me take you down for a while
I know you don't wish to come
but you'll finally see the sun

won't you please come with me
take my hand
one day you'll see
it was worth it all in the end
when you finally let love descend

Would you like me more if I were a different color
how about if I were older
what so invokes your hatred of me
it is a shame I do not have *****
I would love to have you kick me in them

Pop your pills and run away
Hide your face inside your shame
Drink your whiskey all **** day
Anything to hide the pain

It doesn’t matter what it costs
Count your sins and cut your loss
You never saw another way
Another day, you’ll never change

You watched the sun fall to the west
Your empty tears held no regrets
Eyes alight you took your final breath
The sun has set and now you’re gone

You popped your pills and ran away
Hid your face within your shame
Drinking whiskey all **** day
Anything to hide the pain
Anything to run away

He walks with certainty
Knows exactly where he needs to be
His sharp eyes are lined down his sights
And he’s coming for you, he’s coming for you and you can’t fight
He’s known by countless names
Some lost, some found throughout the ages
He hides in the dark to take you while you sleep
And he’s coming for me, he’s coming for me and I can’t fight
We like to call him evil
We love to call him pain
But he’s after all of us just the same
And he’s coming for you, he’s coming for me and we can’t fight, we can’t hide, we can’t run
A ghost in shadows, he finds us every day
Creeps up and takes our breath away
Some leave a whisper in the wind
Others succumb to a miserable end
But he’s coming for us, he’s coming for us and we can’t fight
We like to call him evil
We love to call him pain
But he’s after all of us just the same
And he’s coming for you, he’s coming for me and we can’t fight, we can’t hide, we can’t run
He’s coming for you, he’s coming for me, he’s coming for us, we can’t fight, we can’t hide, we can’t run

Yes it is true
A tortured soul I am
Broken
Beaten
Can I stop writing now?
No
It is the only way to stop the pain
Then will it stop?
No
Never ending
I have beauty too, yes
I see beauty in everything
But I also live within darkness
I am ******
It is a part of me
I can suppress it, ye
But please remember
These wounds did leave scars
And that is where the fear lives
I will live in the light
Soon enough
For now I will dress my wounds

Schau hin

Wenn ich sehe, wie es vielen Menschen geht
so hätte ich gern ein Neubeginn!
Es wird Zeit das ihr euch eingesteht
dass die Kids hier so verloren sind!
Schau Aussichtslos und Hoffnungslos,
denn wir stellen uns alle blind, doch wir stellen uns alle blind

Wenn andere nichts mehr sehen dann schau hin
Denn wir sehen soviel dass nicht richtig ist,/ We see so much that isn’t right
also versperr dich nicht und hör hin
Sie sagen soviel, so vieles ohne Sinn! /They say so much, so much without sense!

Was ich will
Sind Taten und kein Wortgefecht
irgendwie hat jeder Recht
haltet doch was ihr versprecht
Weil viele Menschen so verloren sind
Ausgebrannt und Mittellos!
Denn wir stellen uns alle blind
Alle doch wir stellen uns alle blind

Warum sind wir so blind
Hin Schau hin
Vielleicht wachen sie auf und
schaun hin..
Zwischen das Glück zwischen Ruhm
zwischen all' diesen Dingen
merkst du nicht was wichtig ist?
Auf der Suche nach dem Sinn
ich mach meine Augen jetzt auf und schau hin!

Look

When I see, how may people are
I would like to have a new beginning
It´s that you admit
that the kids get lost here
Desperately and without hope
because we all act as if we are blind
we act as if we are blind

When all the others can´t see anything
look there
because we see many things that are not alright
do not avoid and listen carefully
they say so many things without meaning

What I want
is action and no battle of words
somehow everybody is right
keep your promises
because many people are lost
Desperately and without hope
because we all act as if we are blind
we act as if we are blind

When all the others can´t see anything
look there
because we see many things that are not alright
do not avoid and listen carefully
they say so many things without meaning

Why are we so blind
look there
Maybe they wake up and
have a look...
In between luck and glory
in between all those things
don´t you recognize, what´s really important
While looking for the sense - for the sense
I open my eyes now and look there (watch out)

When all the others can´t see anything
look there
because we see many things that are not alright
do not avoid and listen carefully
they say so many things without meaning

Falling hard for someone I hardly know
I think of him and then my heart clenches
The way I feel for him , I want to show
But when I'm close, I stop within inches

I don't want to hold it in much longer
If I do I'll explode from head to toe
Maybe I'll say something to be stronger
It's not as if he'll hate me, be a foe

I step closer to him, voice calling out
My mouth snaps shut, my legs frozen in place
I have lockjaw, what is this all about
I can't step closer, my heart starts to race

I will wait for him to step toward me
What if he won't come, then we'll never be

You burn with the same passion
That consumes me, I never knew
Always I cared for you
But this

The truth knocked me off my feet
Swept me away
And left me breathless
This secret you never disclosed

I am filled with self doubt
And fear
Yet am glad I know now
I would write all the things I feel
But it just isn't good enough you see

So I will just wait for the day I can show you
Telling you won't suffice
