Nothing
Turned to nothing
By just a phrase
Spoken from anger
When deep in rage
Told I was nothing
By my own blood
It hurts a little
But not too much
Shortened with a different title

Music (2)
The lyrics make me FEEL something
They tell me that there still might be a way back
That I’m going to be ok
But in a way no person can say

There are no words to the indescribable feeling I get when I listen to music
I feel clear headed
I feel open in every way
I feel like there is still something to live for again
That maybe I’m not alone today
That maybe I’m strong enough to fight these battles inside my head for just one more day

War
War
There’s no such thing as a war zone
In your own home,
Right?

No one
I've been told
What to do
For most of my life
But now
When I want
Someone to
When I need
Someone to

No one is there

Every Night…
I woke up crying and scared again
I don’t remember what happened though
I need someone to hold me, but he’s not there

There is no ‘he’ for me
Never has been

Scared and alone in the darkness of my room
I’ve never needed anyone to just hold me more than I do right now…

Haiku: Pretty Lies
Too many people
Tell you what you want to hear
And not what they think

True Pain (10w)
How do I know I'm in love?
When it hurts?
What a shame
We feel the need to hide from the ones we love

If only to avoid the fear of being judged

This Is Why I Stayed Quiet
They told me to call out
If I needed help
Yet I scream and plead
And still am not heard
The sun shines bright in the overgrown meadow
and her soul still lingers in the old house's shadow
Old and decrepit the house may be,
but her soul will live forever,
you'll see....
This was just for fun, and I really like the rhyme scheme and my rythm so I thought I should share it.

Sweet Sea
The ocean wind whistles in my ear
The most peaceful song you could ever hear

I watch the big waves crash into the shore
One by one they crash some more

The salt of the ocean tastes bittersweet
The taste on my lips forever a memory

The water drops softly on my wet skin
As I feel it, I slowly grin

The sweet smelling sea breeze forever here
I hope to come back every single year

— The End —
