I spent my life
trying to please my family

It didn't work

I spent my life trying to
Please others


I spent my life......
Be yourself

Dark and gloomy days on end
with no apparent hope in sight
fortunes fleeing (lamps alight)
on fairy wings into the night

Out of darkness sinister
with teeth like sharks to minister
that sweeping blow with the sharpest knife
that rips and tears the soul apart
then plunges terror in the heart

Those words from out Golgotha's pits
of pending dangers lurking near

Diagnosis: Cancer

Then just a whisper wafts by here
and sets a message in the ear
"I will never leave you nor forsake you"

THE LORD WILL GET YOU THROUGH ALL THIS
A friend was diagnosed with cancer today.  There are so many new treatments out there now that there is great hope

I do believe
Tonight, more than all others
The distance pierces my soul
A deeper depth
For each mile apart
A thousand punctures through
Still, after the red gums black
What is left
To course through my emptied veins
Is nought but you
The very life within me
The very beat of my heart
Your sweet breath
My only air
'Tis love that bridges the distance
But pain flows in rapids beneath
With you souls soar with angels
Anticipation of your return
Leads each day
As my smile is painted
With the memory of your own
Traversing the bridge
A tricky feat on stormy nights
The rain sparkles like diamonds
The moonlight never more beautiful
As in their reflection
Feeding the river
Yet, somehow, fortifying the bridge
Love is rooted deeply
Bound in eternal light
To a world tinged in darkness
A beacon within
Home is always in sight
If just out of reach
With eyes closed in slumber
United in bliss
Wrapped in the last time
Living for the next time
As much as it can be called living
Being stabbed by each
Of a thousand miles

Missing you painfully

Hey Insomnia,
Take me to my beloved

These pointless nights
You keep me awake,
I'd rather spend them
with someone else

Take me to the beach, Insomnia
Where she spent her summer break
I wanna watch her play
on sandy dreams

You don't know
How much I'd like to see her
But all you show me
are starry nights, darkness and.. you?

Hey Insomnia,
I would like to call her
by this name as well, she shall be my Insomnia
I shall be her Insomniac

Because.. Silly Insomnia,
We both know,
She keeps me awake at night
More than you'll ever do!
*silly girl, I can't sleep.. im not saying it's your fault. but it probably is :p :* xoxo*

I am becoming
The girl you trained me to be
Locked inside a box

Better to be loved for something you can be, than to never be loved as you are.....

Or is it

In all honesty,
The best part of me
...is you*
