I'm still too young to understand the bad things that I have done
yet they come and pull my stomach down
at any time of day.

I'm still too young to know if I love you or if I should have gone
yet I hear myself saying it every time
at any time of day.

I'm still too young to feel the way I do
and I just need to ease the pain, in any type of way,
at any time of day.

I have been drowning
But every touch of yours
Is a small gasp for air
Easing into my lungs
Releasing the pain

I never have to say goodbye
Even when the day I die
Arrives and in the dust I'll fly
In other's thoughts is where you'll find
The remnants of my ghostly dame

18.
Waiting till they go to bed,
So I can have a cigarette
Hanging out the window frame,
Never to be seen again
Walking past and they might see,
A flicker of what could be me
Disappears into the black -
Never to be coming back.

When you forget that the tide comes in at 4
And it is 5 o clock
Forgive yourself.

Live in peace
or die in battle
at least you will not
die in vain

When Mercy comes
with gentle hands,
the light will come
alive again

A little bit of hope
a daisy blooming in my eyes,
A warming ray of light
strikes my face just right

A wave etching itself on an ocean shore
pain tracing from my fingertips
into the sand to be washed away
a little bit of hope today.
