Kyra Cereola
Blue eyes,
               disguised,
by scattered specks of green.

Red hair,
             compared,
to a lion's messy mane.

Pale skin,
              unhinged,
from a fury of freckles.

Strong voice,
                    rejoiced,
with wonder, will, and wistfulness.

Gentle heart,
                    apart,
from pain in his past.

Rough hands,
                      demand,
his lover's hand to hold.

Soft lips,
             kissed,
by his one and only,
                                 me.

Amber K
She had a patience,
that no one understood.
She could wait a million years,
just to prove her love.

But no one gave her the option.
No one wanted to wait.
No one wanted patience.
And she just wanted to make everyone happy.

On her quest to make everyone happy,
she lost herself.
She forgot how to smile.
Sometimes she even forgot to breathe.

She was willing to show her love,
but no one was willing to love her back.
At least not the way she loved them.
No one could love like she did.

But she was broken now,
and everyone kept stepping on her shattered pieces.
She was willing to wait on anyone,
but no one would wait for her.

No one hears you cry in the dark of night
No one knows your name

You scream out! There's no one to hold your hand

There you are sitting alone avoiding fleeting glances in a sea of apathy
You think you know what's best but you never gave me a chance

It's been said before that true love
is mutual . . . I just want to know
one thing . . . Do you feel the way
I do?

I finally let my guard down
To fall in love with you
Don't you know I've been waiting?
So here's my heart . . .

(God) Let me be the one
           who takes her home  (who takes you home)
           to call her mine          (to call you mine)
           we'll live forever

I'm like a stray                                                           I can't erase the past
wandering endlessly..                                               No one can take back
But the difference is                                                  what you've given to me!
that I'm NOT lost                                                      Brace for impact
I chose this life                                                            I­'m just one of the
                                                                ­                    forgotten!
We are the forgotten!
NO one knows who
we really are

We've been beat down
and bruised

But there's nothing
But there's nothing
that can hold us
back now

Don't compromise your dream
to please everyone else's

Not everyone who has a purpose will find it!
