Last night I prayed
Softly, peacefully, and still,
No strain, no grief, no disbelief,
No doubting of His will,

Last night I prayed
Softly for His strength,
Since I am weak.

Then with peace-of-mind
Worries and stress left behind
I quietly fell asleep.
all i want is to travel the world
be someone's special girl
experience different places
meet new faces
always change
destinations

one day
i'm here
the next
i'm there
that's what i want
a change of scenery
always and constantly

i want to eat different foods
with the one i travel with
the one i call my love
oh, life would be good
if i could travel the world
and feel happy for once
just grab my stuff and run
take a risk, take a chance
find someone and grab their hand
plan our future
as well as our romance
go out on dates
kiss all night
look in each other's eyes
it all sounds so perfect
right?

yes, it does
that's my idea
of a perfect love
of a perfect relationship
A neverending vacation
full of promise and life
it's what i've been imagining
since i was in my early teens

i wanted my teenage years
to be exactly like that
but all i have is sadness
but i wanted to experience it
the wonder of the world
the wonder of love
it's all i think about
but until then
in my sadness
i will drown

just wanted a nice life
and a love to match
we all want that
but some people
kinda destroy us
and the picture
we created
in our heads
of a nice life
in the sun
away from rain
away from worries
away from pain

there is so much
i would like to do
there's so much
i'd like to know
but nobody
and i mean nobody
wants to show me
how good life could be
This is a poem I'm proud of. Wrote it just now. It's a lot more positive than most of my work.
