Hey there,
little girl,
yes you little girl,
stop crying,
stop lying,
I know you’re trying little girl.
You’re smarter that you think, t
hrow the sharp silver down the sink,
open your eyes, no more good-byes
you can fly, little girl.
You have a purpose
don’t be nervous,
you can work this, little girl.
Don’t let that boy corrupt your head,
with those derogative things he said,
he’s crazy,
don’t be lazy to tell him “NO!”,
little girl.
Don’t let those girls bully you,
crush them like dirt under your shoe,
you can do this,
I can prove it,
listen to me,
little girl.
And if your parents are quarreling,
close your eyes and start to sing.
In a minute it’ll be over
and they’ll be sober, little girl.
And if you’re parents don’t treat you right
and every time you’re in a fight,
count to three, close your eyes and let the music be your guide.
When you can’t sleep at nights and
deep inside you want to cry,
look to me,
I’ll be your friend and put your tiny head to bed.
Who am I?
I am hope, here to free your body, mind and soul.
Let me be your best friend.
Hey, guess what?
You’re beautiful little girl.

You told me you wanted to end it, to end what we had.
I closed my eyes and put on a wide smile; a look (you thought was) of relief.
In actuality,  I closed my eyes to block the tears and tried to breath in air between my teeth.

Tell me a secret
and I'll help you keep it

One line at a time
you'll be just fine

Share in this moment
I know that you want it

So take a deep breath
let it clear your head

Fill me in on your dreams
before it is you leave

Open your heart
before you depart

Just take your time
if you feel inclined

If you have the notion
to share in your motion

Please help me to see
what is your greatest need

Lay open your life
and I'll step inside

Bringing a change about
as we talk it out

If you have it in mind
perhaps now is the time

To tell me a secret
and I'll help you keep it

Edgar Allan Poe
It was many and many a year ago,
  In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
  By the name of ANNABEL LEE;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
  Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child,
  In this kingdom by the sea:
But we loved with a love that was more than love—
  I and my ANNABEL LEE;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
  Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago,
  In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
  My beautiful ANNABEL LEE;
So that her highborn kinsmen came
  And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
  In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
  Went envying her and me—
Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know,
  In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
  Chilling and killing my ANNABEL LEE.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love
  Of those who were older than we—
  Of many far wiser than we—
And neither the angels in heaven above,
  Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
  Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE.

For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
  Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE;
And the stars never rise but I see the bright eyes
  Of the beautiful ANNABEL LEE;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling, my darling, my life and my bride,
  In her sepulchre there by the sea—
  In her tomb by the side of the sea.

I do not want my heart any more.
Its a burden, filled with grief.
I'm certain it wasn't like this before.
I want to be heartless; I need to feel relief.

Your memory tortures me everyday.
Your smile holds a tight grip on my eyes.
"Please! I just want you to go away,"
But my heart knows I'm full of lies

Are you entertained, watching me languish from above?
Do not worry for I will be seeing you soon, my love.

She longs for that
feeling of love
but claims
the right one hasn't come along

I long for that
feeling of love
too
but I claim
I'm not capable
Work in progress, leave any and all comments ! :)
May add to it later

You're no longer "that older boy"
No, you're no longer the one I used to annoy
You're no longer the one that held my hand
You're no longer the one that built me a castle out of sand
You're no longer the one that tickled me until I cried
No longer the one that scorned me when I lied
You're no longer the one that threw me up in the air
No longer the one that told me not to fear
No, now you're the man with the charming smile
If only I was child again; so I can stay in your arms for a while.
