Lost

Silence brings doubt
Why do I question
Trust in myself
What I feel
Wandering aimlessly
Within my mind
Hopeless and alone.

The sun sets,
Another day past,
I can finally close my eyes,
At last!
One day I will fall,
Or I'll go down some way,
And I can just pray,
That today's not that day.

Sorry

Paralysed by a facade of perfectness
I walk the town with upturned pink stained lips and Fluttering mascara eyes
I’m sorry that’s not who I really am
I’m sorry that you didn’t get what you bargained for
The "us" they say, will never be.
But no matter what they say,
they don't know you and me.
We've made our way across a stormy sea,
locked our hearts together,
and thrown away the key.

We will just restart,
when they let us be,
and stop keeping us apart.
They aren't really that smart,
when it comes to our love,
we'll always be there, in body, mind, and heart.
I'm not quite sure if I should keep the second verse, any opinions?

I am responsible for my own misery,
I am the one who created this hell.
I should have known better, and gotten help,
The very first time I fell.

I kept on finding excuses,
I kept on spreading blame.
I kept on telling myself lies,
and building this burning flame.

Now here I am helpless, depressed and lonely.
Wanting, wishing, hoping to end it all.
But I don't have the strength to **** myself,
Or the will to keep fighting through this wall

I have lost faith in god,
and the belief in the soul within.
No sight of my goals or my dreams.
No idea of who I was and who I have lately been

During the day I am the naïve, happy, jolly person everybody sees,
and by night a depressed, lonely, pathetic freak.
I feel like I should talk to someone,
But I know everyone has problems of their own.

Why is this so difficult?
Why cant I just live life and have fun?
There's talk about robbers, ****** and terrorists.
No one is hurting me but myself; there is no one else to blame: I am the one!

People like me need to start taking charge of their own life.
Aiming higher and taking the dives
Or we will end up like lifeless dolls,
After the world is done directing our lives.

Accidents and miracles do happen,
But the chances are very low
Now lets stop gambling with our lives
and just watching the show.

Accept some things,
and change some if u need to.
Work very hard,
but then take a break when you need to.

Just remember to keep doing things,
and never give up.
Because the story isn't over until,
The End.
Take a dream and make it happen
and keep dreamin'
don't ever stop
Breath in knowledge and release inspiration
don't ever stop
When you think you should stop
when the skies are gray and the rain is pouring down
don't ever stop
When no one is there for you not even yourself
don't ever stop
When it's the end of the world and all you have is a pocket knife and the girl you love
don't ever stop
When people tell you to stop
when people are shouting, hoping, wishing that you'd stop
don't ever stop
When the Man is bringing down is iron fist
don't ever stop
When all you have to make you happy is to eat, sleep, sing, dance, smoke, drink, fly
don't ever stop
Don't ever stop dreamin' because dreams are the basis of our lives
We just have to give them a chance to happen

The sunlight during summer,
the rain of late, late may,
the sound of ocean waves smashing
up against the bay,

the droplets falling slowly,
the moonlight shining thin,
the feeling of your hair blown back
and tucked beneath the wind,

the ticking of a school clock,
the smell of fresh baked goods,
the feel of running freely, alone,
straight through empty woods,

The sweet call of the bluejay,
the wish upon the star,
the hours spent talking as
I drove you in my car,

The peacefulness of heaven,
the sound of soulful blues,
this is what it feels like
to be in love with you.
hey so yeah. this is not one of my best but if you like it I have a whole writing blog. periodically i'll be posting on here though. do enjoy :)
When the decorative lights turn on,
I'm taken back to midnight dances under the stars,
our first kiss, you holding me in your arms,
wishing only to be yours.
the day that wish came true,
was the day I said "I Do."
