They adored my painted canvases, the colourful views and pretty smiles... If only they saw the art that wasn't on display.

It wasn't as pretty but surely it was more poetic, oh the simplicity of using only two colours. For I paint in silver on this canvas but out it pours in a dark and lonely red.
Its funny
that we can be in pain
our souls dying slowly decaying
yet no one sees

its hilarious
that nobody notices the little cracks that break through
you could be drowning in your own tears
yet no one sees
never be afraid to ask a person what is wrong because sometimes all they want and need is for someone to see they're not happy
how do you let somebody down
how can just tell them no
tell them you've moved on
that you love another

how can you just drop them
how can you just leave
why do we do this
why don't we stay
the best way to let somebody down is by telling them the truth rather hurt me with the truth than make me smile with lies
you
you make me smile
even on my worst day
you make me happy
with just a simple hey

when i hear the sound of your voice
it fills me with excitement a feeling like no other
listen for i have no other choice
you are the one my significant lover
Things I never said yet I meant to
like I'm sorry I love and I need you
but now we hardly talk for there is nothing more to say
I wish I never left why didn't I stay
never keep the true feelings inside
dreams are like wishes
wishes we want so badly to come true
wishes of love and faith

dreams are like the opposite of reality
the opposite of the truth
they set you up for disappointment
sadly

dreams are the way our minds try to mock us
to make us depressed inside
to make us realize life is a big game we can never beat

that's what dreams are
yes they are magical
but they are just dreams
dreams are wishes your heart makes - Cinderella
don't tell me what to do
my life is mine
it doesn't belong to you

i don't care about what mistakes i'll make
just get off my back
this is something i can't take

stop telling me how to laugh
i don't give a crap
just leave me alone
is it too much to ask for that

i get that its hard but try to let go
if you don't then how will i ever know
its my life
