You're so new
So full of mystery
I never knew
Or would never have guessed
You would one day
Mean more than the world to me.
Hailey A Carlson Apr 2013
I wish I was the contents of a jar,
For years preserved in the sweet security of the glass
Hidden away from the aging brought by air.
My passion for flavor remains untouched, never decaying.
Awaiting one day, to be immersed back into the world
And to be devoured by a hungry soul
Hailey A Carlson Apr 2013
Warmth engulfs you
All pain in gone
In this world
Nothing can go wrong  
Your blood pumps wild
Like it did as a child
Out of reach from age
But so easily afraid
Deep breath kills you
And makes you still
Obsorb the moment
Embrace your will
Because tomorrow comes
Faster than ever
Time won't let you run
Although you are clever
Gazing stars in the sky
Watch our world spin high
As we haze in and out
Of our short ride lives

My eyes used to shine
With wonder, with kind
I'd dance round the room
Not a care in my mind
My parents my heroes
My sibling my foe
The paper made crown
Resembling my thrown
My cares, not developed
Neither my brain
The clouds never heavy
Always sun, never rain
Now time has fled
My feelings turned red
Realize the change
Heavy thoughts in my head
Escape is a dream
Sleep, a nightmare
Friends slip away
Not giving a care
I wish to go back
With every star I see
I want everyday
To let me be freed
I miss my youth
Its flown all too fast
Please please please
Take me back to the past

Bittersweet,
lick the rim,
feel the chill,
on your skin.
Piercing liquid,
climbs down your throat
Yet lifting up,
in the room you float.
Your vision struggles,
to keep up.
As you tip the glass,
and begin to ****.
And a grin streaks your face
But it lacks it’s natural grace.
Artificial happiness,
Results in bitter loneliness.
Regret always follows,
When the day strays to tomorrow.
Addiction keeps you faded
Far into the moonshine
You have waded.
The bad taste
Turns times to waste.
Your twisted into a wicked trick.
Whisky dreams come and go too quick.
But life keeps going
The pain,
still growing.
Without you even knowing.

Love, it's a word people hate, a word people use to much, yet not enough, and a word that means so much more to the world then what is known. Love is your emotion, when you can't stop thinking, floating, and dreaming. When your life comes to a blur, and the only things that's clear, is that one person. Love is an antedote for sadness, but can also be the sickness. Love is an overwhelming  fealing of warmth. When someone says they love you, you gotta beleive them, because it's not free, it's not earned, it's gifted.

Paths
Are taken with trust
But are always taken in a hurry.
You can get on the bus
But you'll have to scurry.
Is it right?
To catch the flight
Can I hold on,
another night.
It's hasn't been long
Since I've done wrong
But they don't know
Cuz I  wont show.
My mind is my enemy
The future my weakness
The eyes in secrecy
And the hearts needed seamstress
