Smiles locked away behind doors
Tip tapping of feet upon the floors
A closed up room for two souls
A love seen only through keyholes

Laughter heard through the walls
As two hearts tumble down the halls
A slight change to the pace of my pulse
And an emotional reaction of convulse

I realize that my heart has speed up
My mind can't seem to shut up
Not sure if you and I are a thing
Or is this just a little something something?

- E.A.F

I string hearts along with too much ease
They fall and follow with no worries
They stumble over my words as I speak
and let those words create a creak

Its essence spilling out on my screen
As I talk the talk like a aplomb teen
Searching the globe for someone
Whether they're the moon or the sun

That is a question I'm willing to ask
But it seems that it really isn't my task
I'm not meant to string along hearts
Or let them be the way I throw darts

I'm meant to find one that loves me for me
But when I find her, I'm too blind to see
Too oblivious to notice that I'm smiling
But I know my hearts' wings aren't meant for flying

- E.A.F

You’re my ark to this overflowing flood
Shepard to these lost herds
The sun to the unwanted mud
The teacher to these needy nerds

You’re the foundation of my pillar
The plot to a best-seller
You’re my number after zero
And my one and only superhero

My point is, you’re the skip to my step
The reason behind my pep
The dew to my summer grass
And the springs chirping birds that fly pass

But I guess you already know that
With all the winks and kisses in our chat
You’d be blind to not understand
That you’re apart of the life I have planned

- E. A. F

I need you far away from me
I want love as vibrant as can be
I need a shelter from the storm
I want a set of arms to keep me warm

Not yours,
No, not yours
I tried my best to please you
But you still shoot your words like bullets
Isn't that true

You shoot me in the heart
But that was only the start
You shoot my pride
You made me want to run and hide

You shoot me in the head
Just with the simple words you said
You shoot me to end it all
But never let me take that final fall

You mistreated me over and over
You abuse me time and again
Your words hit like a stone to glass
Yet your fists stayed quiet
like a student in class

You butcher me
Motionlessly
You ended me
So emotionlessly

I took all the of the abuse
I let you hit me for the simplest of bad news
You hit me with your words
Yes you did !!

"Stop!"
I would shout every once in a while
"Stop please, I don’t want to fight!"
And you’d just smile
You made me think there was light

But that’s when the belt left your waistline
That’s when you said I had to pay my outdated fine

My fee for standing up
My fee for even looking up
My fee for trying to be free
My fee for attempting to flee

So I felt the sting across my back
I felt the buckle that made contact
I felt the whips, as my soul left me
I felt myself take my last breath while he chocked me.

- E. A. F

Wishes of the future
are blurring the present
Never too sure
If all messages should be re-sent

'cause I can't seem to contact you
I keep thinking that maybe your a lie
But everyone else believes in you 2
Does that mean I should at least try?

Are you not a fable?
Are you truly our saviour?
Can you make me feel stable?
Even with all this random behaviour?

- E.A.F

Its sad that I can't really remember you
I remember moments that were once new
Like trips to the zoo or car rides in your BMW
But I dont remember the essence of you

I can't remember the smell to your clothes
The scent isn't picked up by my nose
No memory of the last hug we shared
Or the last time I made fun of your beard

You were a dad to me maybe not my father
But you treated me as your own daughter
How can my brain even think to forget you?
Why can't I remember our last "I love you"

I don't know what we actually said that night
The one before I woke up to the medics flight
The way they ran to your room to abruptly try
Only to give us a truth we wished was a lie

Can sorry be said in a thousand ways?
Can it be accepted in years and days?
Can it be the lullaby I sing to you
Or do you think that this isn’t true?

I know that many have their views
And that what we do shouldn’t be apart of their daily news
But what if I want the world to understand
That I want to put a silver ring on your left hand?

What if I’m over trying to hide who I am?
That if life’s a game, it sure as hell feels like an exam
One where we are told what’s wrong and right
Where we aren’t allowed to chose between dark or light

Because society has moulded us into puppets
Ones that have been hit by one too many bullets
Even so, I guess what we feel has always been a mask
Whether we had the choice to be apart of their task

I think that if one of us ever asked out in worry
I think they’d only reply sorry
But I’m done being moulded into their toy
Its about time that I start fighting for my own joy

- E.A.F

Once upon a time
I was yours and you were mine
We spent every second together
We were meant to be friends forever

Yet unspoken words torn us apart
Now I keep wondering when did this all start
When did we start having awkward moments
When did we start seeing each other as opponents

I keep thinking back to the days of yesterday
When we thought our friendship would never go away
But here we are trying to have a good old DMC
But we’re not willing to let the truth be

We aren’t the best of buds anymore
Seems we had surgery, ’cause we aren’t attached by the hip anymore

But I’m willing to try resurrect this friendship
’cause I’m not willing to up and jump ship
Not yet, I want to try harder and not sink
Its going to have to capsize before I even think

Think about closing my door in your face
Think about leaving without a trace

- E.A.F

I miss the wish that came true,
I miss the arms that wrapped around me,
I miss the love I received by you,
I miss the comfort that use to be…

I miss the cheerfulness in life,
I miss you when I see a smile,
I miss that you loved my mom, your wife
I miss your hug every once in a while

I miss everything to do with you
Like the peeks on my cheek
All the times you said, “I Love you”
And the part about not being weak

I miss not hating myself,
I miss that wish that came true.

- E.A.F

a pillow full of tears wasted on you
a box full of tissues no longer new
a bundle of emotions finally set loose
a waste of a chase for a fabled goose

i never thought I'd be the girl to fall
but i fell hard, i nearly lost it all
i lost the sight that holds my foundation
i became blindly bounded by your affection

i know i lot my common sense of direction
but i now no longer consider you a destination
you are a pass-by town on my route
this is my one surety, with no doubt

- E.A.F

To see his name written in anothers writing,
To hear his song sung by anothers voice,
To feel the hole that he once filled
To seek the comfort he once offered
To think I won’t see him again

To see my world continue to spin without its orbit,
To hear the emptiness behind this laughter,
To feel his cold cheeks as I kissed goodbye one last time,
To seek the warmth that once filled his body
To think I won’t hear him again

To see his smile would cause tears of joy to arouse,
To hear his voice would sound like heavens gates opening to the ******
To feel his arms hug me once more
To seek the music we once shared
To think I won’t feel him again

To see new memories won’t include him,
To hear the beating of his heart would be a miracle
To feel like my smiles are forced and my tears flow
To seek that this wasn’t true
To think I won’t have you…

- E.A.F

People seem to walk with this falsified paise
While our minds scream out to make a noise
We relish in the ideals of our said humanity
But we have never set them in stone in our society

-E.A.F

I wish for one breathtaking moment
Fill of love for a single, simple sentiment
Where I can kiss the skies a goodnight
And cease this agonizing need to fight

I wish for the ability to exist beyond
That of this limited physical bond
Which cradles me like a helpless infant
As it makes me feel as fragile as an ant

Yet...

I wish for the strength of said creature
As its raw power is its highlighted feature
It can work hours on end and still go on
Like the madness faced by every mom

I wish for the patience of those women
To do all that anywhere, how and when
It should be impossible to even think
Through the chaos of the markers ink

-E.A.F

These things I love about you
They're the things only you can do
Like the edited photos you create
Or how your touch feels like fate

But don't ask me how these feelings came true
All I know is its because of you

So I love the way you wear your cherry lip glass
I love the way how you have the cutest of laughs
I love how you give me that adorable coy grin
And how even if I lose, it feels like win

I love your long brown hair with a tinge of red
I love how in photos you always tilt your head
I love your relaxing and cheerful companionship
And how this has been the best relationship

I love the way you get mosquito bites so easily
And how you fish for compliments so rarely
I love all those random ***** jokes
And all those silly, but cute, facebook pokes

So with all this in mind think back one year
Back to when I finally overcame that silly fear
The one of you not liking me as more than a friend
All I can say is I'm very happy you said yes in the end.

- E.A.F & Dan van Gool

I gave your heart away just the other day
I didn’t want you to stay
It felt wrong, yet right
’cause I didn’t want to end your light

You fought with all your might
You thought you’d win this fight
But I said to you baby
You can’t save me

You always thought I was one in a few
And that may have been true
But I’m no light, I’m a darkness, one of a kind
Something that should be left behind

Like these thoughts, so undefined
The ones that make me want to rewind
Back to when I let you slip away
Back to that imperfect day.

- E.A.F

As my tears rolled down my cheeks, I heard the song of heaven sing his name…

I saw feathers rain down upon me as I cried out his name in sorrow. Oh, how I wished he had a tomorrow. I wished I had one minute, I wished I said what needed to be heard, and I wished I had awoken earlier the day of his demise.

I wished my tears were not real and my smiles were not fake. That I awake at dawn to realize it was all just a nightmare… I wished this was a fairy tale, but instead of a prince, I would have my Dad every step of the way. That if or when I was charmed into marriage, he would tell my groom that his shotgun was just a quick stop at the local shop.

I wished I had him to kiss me good night once more. I wished I had a drive in his car one more time.

I wished I had you… I miss you more than plants would water or the earth would the sun. You were and always will be my angel… tattooed to my heart and imprinted to my soul.

Watch over us.

Our freedom will be the outcome of what we are fighting for
You may feel as if we are crawling on this blood stained floor
But we have just a few more steps to take before we can soar
So, stop the tunnel vision, stop this war,

’cause we also have what we believe in now
This imprisonment should end no matter what they allow
Our belief should stomp their efforts against us
We should not let them come between us

We should fight until our last breath
Maybe one day, we can stop
But only when we feel that we’ve done enough
But this should never end with our death
Maybe one day, when we feel that we’ve done enough
For this thought should consist of both hope and love

Hope for an ideal that can change a country
Love for a sense that can only bring unity
Awareness for the fact that we have a common enemy
Hate for the fact they rain upon us in vanity

Their actions have an aftereffect
Ones that not one person can mend
We need, now more than ever, to no longer JUST reflect
But to make this all come to an end

- E. A. F

I want my mirror to steam up
I want my heart to shut the hell up
I want these tears to go to hell
All I want is for you go there as well

See if my mirror steamed up
I wouldn’t see the reflection that’s so ****** up
But If my heart doesn’t stop aching
I think I may end up faking

Faking the smiles and laughs
Pretending I’ve put up glass
Instead of this 10 foot brick wall
So no1 can see my pain at all

I know that I may be more
More than a friend to you
But I feel like you’d kick me to the floor
If she ever came running back to you

So I love you
And I know you love her
so guess I’m just another you
Hoping for a miracle to occur,
Falling in love with someone who won’t love me 2

And I may be mad
I may say you should go to hell
But its ’cause you drive me mad
You make my pain disappear into a well

I don’t know how to deal with this
’cause all it took for me was one simple kiss.
although, even before that night
You fulled my darkness with light.

So I love you
And I know you love her
so guess I’m just another you,
Hoping for a miracle to occur,
Falling in love with someone who won’t love me 2

- E. A. F

I sing this lullaby to you
Wishing you weren't a stranger
For this is what I do
Instead of avoid your danger

Sure you may try
But I know you only lie

You were never there
And you think you may have cared
But you were never here
These burdens weren't ever meant to be shared

- E.A.F

All I have pictured are your fingers
Dragging along my skin
If you're wondering if it lingers
I can tell you, sit down, let it sink in

My sleep was not a go ahead
My words were never said
Never given the choice to say yes or no
That naturally means its a no go

But you had to be a fucken ****
Is this the man your mom would want
The boy she spent years loving and grooming
Only to have him out there groping and ******?

Don't say the drinks or **** did it
Or that I was drunk and asking for it
My silence was more an answer than less
A passed out drunk is never a yes

- E.A.F

His words and body language had been imprinted on my mind, his grin that played on his lips, those dimples that caused my mind to go high.
Although, each time our eyes meet, my heart fluttered, my stomach filled with reawakened butterflies and all I heard was the song to his voice, the melody to his movement and the tune of our synchronized heartbeats as the seconds passed us by. My ears rang with each glance; my heart escaped its cage with each thought. Yet his smile was what made my toes curl and my nose wrinkle when it appeared.

His voice played music and that smile offered a dance when seen. I gladly accepted every time. As we swayed left, then right, and left, again… time slowed to a standstill. Laughter filled the air and he caused my heart to enter my throat with each note to his song, but time never stops for anyone, so we had to apart.
Although, my heart prayed, begged for another song to be sung, another dance to be done. Alas, the moonlight was bright and the stars were my comfort, until we said our last good nights… for his kiss upon my cheek was my delight.

- E.A.F

The night started out as a friends thing
We spoke for hours about everything
We laughed and joked around a bit
Then found our hands were a perfect fit

We acted as more than what we were
Which might have caused a feeling to stir
We told strangers this little white lie
And we didn't even have to try

We fooled the strangers by the bars
As we held hands under the stars
We moved swiftly to the music playing
Not realizing what we were doing

We started something that late night
It started small but then grew bright
It become a sense of belonging
That's when you became my only longing

I need to not miss you..
I need to not want you
But all that's on my mind
Is how you make me blind

Blind to the worst of life
Seeing it all with no strife
But all I need is a balance
But sadly I have no patience

How do I get over this ache
When my heart's at zoo lake
With a hint of blue looking down
As I miss you more than my home town

- E. A. F

My page seemed to be blank
I looked at the emptiness and my heart rate sank
I felt the unfilled lines creep off the page
coated with a fearsome rage

Refined with the rejection of my pen,
Enough to end the lives of a thousand men
The lines danced around my throat
Tempted me to start what I never wrote

It started,
“There once was girl, faint-hearted was she,
For her first love was forced to flee
And now dreadfully parted
Her heart beat ached and flickered
For their love and lust still lingered…”

I sat and stared at the twisted sentences
And reread these words of emphasis
The lines sorrow set flight
Allowed my pulse to sleep that night    

- E. A. F

The flame to this fearsome beast, shifts with the wind,
This flame in our darkness, glows until unable,
The flame to this monster, changes from hope to despair in seconds
This flame is as humans are…
Destructive, yet inspirational.

- E.A.F

Let me fly into the sky
With my head held high
these broken wings
Can’t carry me

So I beg you please
Resurrect me
Bring me to life
Once again

Level the plain
Be real with me
Is what I did so wrong
Even if our love was so strong?

We’ve known each other for far to long
We’ve stood together through thick and thin
For instance, you hugged me when I cried during king kong
And I’ve admittedly lost to see you win

And you my friend have got it all wrong
Yes you my friend think this is a friends forever song
but no (x3)
this one (x3)
is for you

You see my friend, I don’t want to be friends
You see my friend, your my someone

My someone to do crazy things with
My someone to dance and sing with
My someone to cry on
My someone to wipe my tears gone

My someone who’d say my name and rejoice
My someone who’d crumble at the sound of my voice
My someone who’d think “wow, she’s beautiful”
My someone who’d say “a life without you would be sorrowful”

We’ve known each other for far to long
We’ve stood together through thick and thin
For instance, you hugged me when I cried during king kong
And I’ve admittedly lost to see you win

And you my friend have got it all wrong
Yes you my friend think this is a friends forever song
but no (x3)
this one (x2)
is for you

You see my friend, I don’t want to be friends
You see my friend, your my someone

- E. A. F

I am a person with a heart that is in need of mending,
A person that feels weak and tends to fail when it comes to self-defending,
But I can’t lie and say that I don’t have some good,
Because when no one else would,
I tried to help the frail
Even if it turned me to become weakened and pale…

I always try to take one-step further,
But to be honest, I am still a learner,
I don’t know what I should be doing in this life,
This era filled of darkness and strife.

A place where you can’t always think things through,
Where not everything you’ve been told is true,
But one can only try to change the outcome
Because, before named victor, you’d have to run.

- E.A.F

I no longer had the words,
I felt vulnerable and unarmed
My heart ached and was constantly alarmed
As if, my fight ended with the destruction of my swords

Treasure were within the reach of my trembled nerves
Severed footsteps on hallow ground,
Walked along the narrowed corridor curves,
Ran further and further away, screaming without saying a sound.

- E.A.F

I've been roaming in shallow waters
Left my hollow footprints behind
Tip toed on the edge of the deep end
Afraid, afraid of sinking

Holding my breath in too tight tonight
Slipped off the edge, can't go back
The water's holding me far too close
Not letting my feet touch the ground

My thoughts have cease to exist
Not a single flash of life came to be
Nobody said that it would end like this
Looks like I'm not apart of your history

My breathes are scattered and alone
Reaching out for anyone's hand
Because I don't think I can
My feet don't want to touch this land
- EAF

We all have that one thing we're destined to do,
It leaves our sanity something to cling to.
Its the feeling of passion that takes our soul,
It differentiates the empty from the whole.

This is what we have all be told,
But when we are different, we fold.
We don't stand tall in success,
Because we're all scared of originalities stress.

We would rather prosper as copies
Than leave behind our insecurities.
We would rather follow someone else's bricked way,
Before wondering into the jungle with fears to stray .

We have been forced, scared into a cage of indiversity,
But the bars are invisible to my curiosity.
Your minds have been set to a specific channel.
One of balanced fear and comfort with no light at the end of the tunnel.

- E.A.F

She starred upon passing surfaces
Not dared to look at any faces
Each platform raced by the next
As her mind rebuilds its recks

A lip numbed by her own bite
Holding back her fight or flight
The world still turned with her steps
One off of the edge of this complex

- E.A.F

Last breaths taken away from them
The end to a journey of knowledge
The final stitching to a dresses hem
The first step to the worlds edge

Clouds are fewer
Rains are fonder
Pastors are newer
And yet I begin to wander

Beep-beep beep-beep
A light flashes repeatedly
Annoying me out of my sleep
I get up eventually

My head aches for silence
It pounds for caffeine
My body readies to balance
As my feet hit the ground in routine

I stretch and close my eyes
Whipping away these flakes of sand
As my head screams out, its cries
My legs refuse to listen to my command

One by one they move forward
They begin to trudge lazily
My mind thinking backward
Thinking about the times that were so giddy

- E.A.F

So much left to be said between us
But these words had become silent
So much left to be done between us
But our actions had become private

We no longer shared every thought
We didn't share thought waves
It's as if our very souls were bought
To mark the stones to our graves

He appeared at my bedside yet again, His eyes an ethereal blue, Filled with concern and sorrow… He spoke to me as I faked my slumber, I watch his shadow upon my pale brown wall, While he said how he wished he could be seen, Be heard and to be listened to by me…

He cried his sorrows to me as the clock ticked ever so slowly. Every night I awaited his arrival and when my cream curtains shifted, so did my breathing. My heart ached for him, for him to understand, that I too know his sorrow… Even so, he continued to speak…  

He started with the same words every time, “I’ve always been the one to protect you, Nevertheless, I may be in need of protection soon… From the heartache I feel every time I cannot hold you… Every time, I cannot look you in the eyes and say ‘I love you! ‘Every second of every day that I cannot be with you…”

His voice floated in the air as I listened to his repetitive harmony. I had already memorized each angelic feature, each shade of light to his shadow…
He always seemed to continue with, “Even if my heart breaks, you are still the light to my darkness, the stars to my night, and the gravity that holds my sanity.” He always sighed this with his head held in his hands.

I have wondered. However, I had never ventured beyond the slumber that sheltered me. Never able or rather, never courageous enough to do so. No… I would never find out, but at least I knew that, you are the comfort to this pain, the soul to this body And the love to this heart…

- E.A.F

Our past seem to be sculptured by the same artists,
Our hearts mended by the same glue,
Our realities filled with the same bumps and twists,
And our happiness becoming something only felt by a few...

if I'm being honest,
You fill my entire being with butterflies,
You're the moment in my day that's best,
You give me clarity to all the lies,

You make me bite my lip,
And get my heart beat to skip
And I know this is all new to you and I
But I guess the best things in life are the moments when we try

- E.A.F

I guess these happy times are over.
I no longer own that four leaf clover,
’cause just as everything was going right,
It turned wrong in broad day light.

My heart wept and cried and ached,
It try a smile which was forced and faked.
My body fell and crumbled as it lay.
For it felt as if today was my last day.

’cause my heartbeat echoed and trembled,
While its core recharged and reassembled.
My body capsized, left with no hope or wonder.
No need to do either about the future.

- E.A.F

When I see you, I can’t help but bite my lip and twirl my hair
To feel no care in the world and it only seems fair.
I can’t help but lower my head as my heart rate heightens
And to have all my inhibitions disperse as my sorrow lightens

And when we speak, I can’t help but tuck a curl behind my ear
And smile like an idiot while your near
To cross my arms
As if to shelter myself from your charms

Even if I try hid it
And there’s no point trying to deny it
Because, I still giggle like a child on a sugar high
And I would never want to say good bye

‘Cause I get butterflies only wen I see you
I feel longing only when I hear your voice
And I only need you to be the one to say ‘I love you”
And to be your one and only choice
You may be clumsy and a bit of a goof
But one day soon I hope you’ll make you move

For Wen I see you, I can't help but bite my lip and twirl my hair
To feel no care in the world and it only seems fair.
I can't help but lower my head as my heart rate heightens
And to have all my inhibitions disperse as my sorrow lightens

Somehow, We both seem to have a problem with a few things
We stutter and sweat over the smallest of things
Like your mumbled hello and my hushed good bye
And the in between where we’re only able to try…

Even if I try hid it,
there’s no point trying to deny it
I still giggle like a child on a sugar high
And I would never want to say good bye

- E. A. F

Your life was like a shooting star
A broken ray unable to be fixed
Here one moment, gone the next
But now I'm just wondering where you are

Are you out there saving the world
Are you out there heeding my plea
Are you out there thinking of this little girl
Or are you out there finding the key

Something that can save us in the end
so that we don't have to fall hard
A special something that will help us fend?
Or are you hiding in the sky so starred?

The day that had me fixed to the ground
The day that made me wake up and look around
The day I felt the true meaning of woe
The day I was forced to watch you go

This day is one engraved forever in my memory
A day that sneaks into my dreams so easily
The unique moment in my life that made me realise
That life is full of both truths and lies

That even when sorrowful death is seen
it doesn’t mean that the living always believed
The fact that I was a child, only fifteen
Created my desperate need to be relieved

I wanted the pain to go away
I Didn’t want you to be gone yet another day
I wanted your cold skin to be warm yet again
I wanted to escape to way back when

Back when I could hear your laughter echo through the mall
Back when the last time I saw you wasn’t in a picture on the wall
Back when I didn’t have to cry about you to the unearthly heavens
Back when you didn’t live among the haloed legends

But back to the now we live in
Back to how this could only be the beginning
For with the breaths were blessed with today
And we shouldn’t let these memories fade away

We should learn to stand together hand in hand
In remembrance of those who left unplanned
And learn to preach life’s wonder and glory
’cause I don’t know about you, but that’s how I’d like them to tell my story

- E.A.F

Just light up another ciggerate
And let me smoke my lungs dead
How else am I supposed to handle it
When my heart can't lead my head

Let the air I breath change for worse
Don't call out when my pulse slows
No need to bring a doctor or a nurse
For I am that single withering rose

I never know if I should be moving on
Or staying strong
I never know
how to control
these feelings
That are whispering
In my ear

The feelings that ignite
The moon and stars
Just because I’m willing to fight
Even if I don’t know where you are

I don’t know how you feel
I don’t know if you think this is real
I don’t know when you want to talk
And I don’t know if you’ll stay or walk

But I do know
that I think I like you
'Cause I feel the sting of Cupids’ bow
And I’m hoping you do too

I feel the sting of that never ending bow
I feel the angel wings surrounding me
I feel that mysterious glow
I feel like I’m okay with only you and me

But I wish upon a star
Every night
That I’m right bout you who are
Oh how I hope I’m right

'Cause I know how I feel
I know I wish this were real
I know when I want to talk
And I know I don’t want to walk

'Cause

I feel the sting of that stupid bow
I feel the angel wings surrounding me
I feel that mysterious glow
I feel like I’m okay with only you and me

But I don’t know if you’ll stay or go
I don’t know if you’ll walk that walk
I don’t know if you feel this too
And I don’t know if you ever really want to talk

But most of all

I never know if I should be moving on
Or staying strong
I never know
how to control
these feelings
That are whispering
In my ear

- E. A. F

The crackled tensions drifted about
Echoed voices reached out
A darkened room with one ray of light
A couple danced all through the night

But then a blue rose was found and followed by glee,
Because the man went down on one knee
Fore, instead of thorns on its stem
A golden ring replaced them

- E. A. F

You may not be in the crowd tonight,
But you will be with me on stage,
For you are apart of my spotlight,
And the makers of who I am to this day and age

You are the molds to my sculptures,
The notes to my music
The mystery to my adventures
And the person who leave me static

You may not be at every show or event
And you may not be there when wanted,
But you are there when I’m in need to vent
And when I feel like I’m being taunted…

When I can’t help but shed a tear
And when I feel like my whole world is about to disappear
When I feel as if I may collapse
Or have a mental relapse

You hold my hand and comfort me
And set my worries free

- E. A. F

A boy said to a girl,
Something that made him her world,
He said, “In every book, in every tale,
They say the hero is always the male,
However, times are changing into a new
And my true hero will always be you.”

- E.A.F

These words are trapped inside of me
I don’t know why, but I can’t set them free
They itch at the inside of my throat
Asking, begging me to sing that single note

A sound that cascades from the heavens
One that’s answering all these questions
Questions of life, love and death
I keep wondering if this note will be my last breath

And if it is, if this is the last breath I take
Then let it be, not a tremble, but an earthquake
For I want people to, not forget me, but commemorate
As I believe that my legacy is destined through fate

A fate decided through the eyes of those above
A life I would leave feeling proud of
Because even if I don’t make my dreams come true
I know that my morals will remained just, through in through

- E.A.F

No distrust my friend,
But I’ve been to the other end.
Where we are unable to breath,
Where we’re seen as just part of a weave.

A thread instead of a person,
A metaphor taken literally,
Only to have our lives worsen,
And no, I’m not talking figuratively.

I’m talking with all my honesty,
’cause they may say that we should be grateful,
But for me to live by my life policy
I will not be regretful.

So I will stand up and scream.
I will speak my thoughts.
I will let freedom and revolt be my life’s new theme,
And I will rewrite these unfair plots

I won’t let you control me,
Because what am I if not free?

- E.A.F

We use to sit and talk every once in a while,
We had moments that consisted of only a smile.
A few secrets were lifted
And feelings seemed to have drifted,

But I still found myself counting stars,
Searching for your favorite cars.
Believing we had it all,
Even knowing we were about to fall.

I knew I was boarding a sinking ship,
But I hoped that was just a false tip.
A jealous remark from an old lover,
Something to separate me from another.

Yet your words still roam my mind,
Thinking how did I ever get this blind?
You knew from the start right?
You knew I wouldn’t be the one to end this fight.

So you sat me down and explained
That you didn’t want to be claimed.
You didn’t want to have to fake.
You didn’t want to cause my heart break.

So,
I watched all your pauses,
I heard you repeat all the causes.
I hoped that it was all a bad dream,
But I guess that’s too main-stream

Because I looked you in the eyes.
I saw no trust, no love, just lies.
I didn’t see the person that I thought I knew
And that’s when I recognized the fake within you…

Valentine, oh, valentine
How I hope you hear my rhyme.
So that it is perceived correctly
And spoken, with words formed by me, directly
And for you to understand my love for you
It is no joke, or form of mockery,
but one felt by, not many,
but a few

- E.A.F

It's been months since I was by your side
But love is a feeling that no one can hide
I miss the smile that you gifted me with
But your smile has become something of a myth

I still remember the ear to ear grins we shared
And all the emotions that left me so scared
To think that I thought we could be something
Has made me begin to wonder about everything
