WHERE WERE YOU?
The tears going down her face
Unfortunately aren't misplaced
She cries out for love
And pray for forgiveness from up above

Where is everyone who cares
They all just stop to stare
Nothing but laughter and humor
She can't even look in the mirror

Piece by piece she falls apart
She always loved you from the start
But now shes headed up above
Where were you when all she wanted was love?

"Stay Wondering"
My heart is now shattered on the ground,
I stay wondering if love will ever be found.
I’m constantly in a war with my past,
I stay wondering if were moving too fast.
If I was judged on love I'd be in last place,
I stay wondering why my heart is constantly in a race.
I’m trying hard to win you over,
I stay wondering if your smile is just a cover.
I want to know if you want love or lust,
I stay wondering if it’s you I can trust.
I tend to always push you away,
I stay wondering if you will leave or stay.
My heart wants you to stay beside me,
I stay wondering do you even think we could ever be?
I fall harder and harder with every touch,
I stay wondering if its right to feel this much.
Have you ever needed someone so bad?
I stay wondering if one should ever be this sad.
Everybody dies, but not everybody lives,
I need to relax and think about all the things he gives.
I stay wondering how beautiful love looks to most,
I can only imagine as beautiful as the horizon on the coast.

Left To Believe
As the pain hits me like a bottle of whiskey,
im left to believe you are there.
 I can't see you nor can I hear you,
 but im left to believe you are there.
 I can't  feel your touch,
but im left to believe you are still there.
I can't  hear your laughter,
but im left to believe you are still there.
Even though I cant see, hear, or feel you,
Im left to believe you are there...
 you know the key word in believe... is LIE. And too think im left to believe you are still there.
R.I.P. DADDY  Im missing you every day
A poem wrote by me Courtney Richards
