You taunting, your laughter,
they all join in.
They smile, they sing,
the rejoice in your hymn.

They praise, they laugh,
they think it's alright.
But do they all know,
that little girl cries at night?

Your laughter, your words,
she thought you were her friends.
She's seeing your snickers,
she feels like the end.

It's stupid, it's pointless,
for you to poke fun.
At someone, unlike you,
she is the innocent one.

It's time to stop, to settle down,
her eyes are weak and weary.
Now honey, ask yourself,
is this really necessary?

For her to feel unwelcome,
as if her best friend betrayed.
This feeling goes on,
it lasts for days.

But we can stop it,
if we only listen close.
To a heart that beats,
and what matters most.

Walking, walking,
let's move on forward.
But every time I try,
it's two steps backward.

Listen, listen,
to the words I need to say.
But they aren't coming out,
no honey, not today.

I wish, I wish,
I could tell you everything.
But I don't know myself,
I can't hear my heart sing.

The words, the words,
so lost in my heart.
I can't decifer them,
and it's tearing me apart.

I miss, I miss,
what we used to be.
The best friends ever,
you were always there for me.

I want, I want,
that someone to always hold.
Who's here to be with me,
and forever grow old.

I need, I need,
someone to just say.
"Baby, it'll be all right,"
and hold me close today.

These days, these days,
getting harder to bear.
The people around,
my heart they tear.

I'm falling, I'm falling,
someone help me up.
These days, I'm telling you,
have never been so rough.

My feelings, my feelings,
have never been so hard.
To decifer, but honey,
there's more and more ...

I'm falling....I'm falling...
I need help now ...
Can someone just hold me?
It's gotta be alright some how ...

They're not quite there,
not there yet.
They're on their way there,
that point where they can't turn back.
The moment he looked into her eyes,
with that crooked little smile.
That moment their hearts sparked,
he made her heart race.
His touch on hers was like fire,
and he made her word light up.
The sparkle in his eyes,
baby, she hasn't seen that in a while.
The butterflies and knots,
they raced around her stomach and chest.
Her head was spinning with disbelief,
She laid back with her head on his pillows.

And then he kissed her.
And then thier lips met.
And then the fire sparked.
And she just can't go back.
And then he kissed her.
Ans then she got scared.
And now she's afraid,
And now she's scared.
She's scared of losing him.
She's scared of losing Them.


And then he told her it's okay,
and now she waits for another moment like that....

The rose is dying,
winding around and wilted.
The rose is falling, falling,
from it's perch so high on the terrace.
The rose is getting colder,
freezing and wilting and dying.
The rose is left alone,
for no one else to find.
The rose is changing colors now,
it's darker, darker.
It's shriveling up, this rose it is,
it's getting smaller, smaller.

*The Rose Is Dying...
Can We Save It?

Time goes on,
and things change.
Feelings grow,
and feelings fade.

The rose in bloom,
is dying now.
He's praying they'll make it,
some way, some how.

Time goes on,
she's fading away.
He's longing for words,
he wishes she would say.

His eyes are faded,
the shine disappeared.
I can see the sadness,
the everlasting fears.

Everything happens,
for a reason I swear.
Our heartstrings are pulled,
and sometimes tear.

Just look for the one,
with a needle and thread.
Who can mend your heart,
be there till the end.

The one who loves you,
with open arms.
Who cares for you,
inflicts no harm.

I promise you I'll try,
to light up your life.
To cherish you endlessly,
to get rid of the strife.

I promise you,
that I will try.
To cure your rose,
so it does not die.

No matter what happens,
I'll stand up with you forever.
I promise you, hunny,
we'll make it through together.
Written for my very best friend. Hang in there, hunny <3

When she talks about it,
it makes it real.
Her vulnerability,
is their's to steal.

It's what she fears,
forever and always.
So she speaks not a word,
she shies away.

In large group,
she feels their eyes.
Fixating on her,
calling on her lies.

They know that she,
is holding something back.
But she hasn't told them,
yet what it is she lacks.

She's scared, she's afraid,
what will they think.
As they stare at her,
she feels herself shrink.

The memories so tough,
she wanted to forget.
This isn't what she signed on for,
this isn't what she meant.

But once she starts,
she just can't stop.
She hands start to shake,
her cheeks get hott.

When she finishes her story,
she looks up with tears.
They put their arms around her,
comforting her fears.

They accept her for her,
past present and all.
Holding her up high,
comforting her when she falls.

These people are members,
of the House of Shalom.
With open hearts and arms,
this place is home.

Staring up towards the sky,
never wanting to say goodbye.
Theminutes count down to our time apart,
but no matter what, you'll be in my heart.

your baby blue eyes, they match the sky,
your arms around me make me fly.
My eyes close off and sleep comes near,
with you all around me I have nothing to fear.

I lay on your legs as I slowly drift off,
my hand falls and alerts me like a shot.
I open my eyes and see your smile,
knowing the next time we'll be here wont' be for a while.

The water is peacefull here with you,
my heart is at ease with all that we do.
No matter how hear or far away,
I promise you'll be in my heart always.
