she is fire
undoubtedly strong
fierce
wild
her stare burns
her heart roars
her flames rise high

soft words
falling from your mouth like rose petals
surrounding me with a sweet fragrance
you make me believe in love

i don't know anymore
i don't know where i stand
or who i stand with
i guess it's okay to wander
but i'm a little lonely
a little sad
in need of a little more love
but i don't even know

take me away from here
out of this sad sad place
let's see new sights
let's run free
you and me

i wish to find
more of my kind
a group of humans
in which i confide

you're screaming words at me
i try to make them out
give them meaning
my hearts beating
pulse rushing
stop
just stop
let me be please
i can't take any more
i am not like you
i am not a screamer
more or less a dreamer
you cannot make me into you
please
let me go

something about a hot shower
steaming droplets running down your skin
so firey
soothing
like a big warm hug
after a long day

there's calm in the storm
safety in its thunder
assurance in its lightening
it does not put asunder

another lonely friday night
a night of lost thoughts
craving someone's company
somebody to talk to
i don't want every night to be like this

i don't take any of it back
it's all part of the being i am
why should i apologise
this is me

but she's not all that she seems
oh no
she is much more
she belongs to the stars
magic unknown
a spectacular being
you just haven't looked into her eyes
they hold star dust secrets
she is a dream

wake up
get out of bed
get up
you will be late
hurry up
what is going on
get up

crying
tears of helplessness
i am glued to my bed
not because i want to be
i do not plan on having a bad day

i wish to be stronger
free from the anxiety
the stress
the worry

i hate living like this

i hate feeling this down
every single day
i feel trapped within myself
stuck
i want to break the cage
run free
it's just hard for me

i am trying okay
i try everyday
things just aren't working out
i am sorry

she grew up in a cab in new york city
always wishing for a home
we made plans to meet in kansas
as i landed, she’d already gone

she’s been somewhere ‘round the bend
somewhere only god knows when
i made this bed i’m laying in
she falls in and out of love
i was born to chase the sun
i guess i'll burn myself again

we’re all fragile underneath
this coat of armor isn’t thick or deep
when we break it’s hard to hide
the way we hurt inside

when i come undone at the seams
my heart is on the floor for all to see
do that thing that i need
wrap your arms around me

we do our best to smile
fight the tears trying to creep from our eyes
when a smile just won’t disguise
we just crumble inside

so when i come undone at the seams
my heart is on the floor for all to see
do that thing that i need
wrap your arms around me

forget normal
normal is so plain
so ordinary
try creative
unique
beautiful
do what is it that makes you
yourself

the last ten texts were with your ex
and all of them were sent by you
but you keep staring at your phone like something's coming through

i wanna end up nowhere on a map
a little cabin sittin’ so far back
out in the country
just the moon and stars
are gonna know where we are

she hates her reflection
hates her chubby arms
her chunky thighs
she wants a thin waist
perfectly slim legs
she craves perfection
not seeing what everyone else sees
absolute beauty

are you ever just tired
of doing the same old thing
you crave more diversity and excitement in your life
you want new experiences
with new people
because your stuck
in your same old ways
and it's time for change

let's go to the markets
thrifting
star gazing
road tripping
wandering through forests
staying in motels
music festivals
travel to new towns
i long for those things
with you

hey
if you want to be in my life
because you connect with me
my thoughts
emotions
interests
values
just let me know
i don't want fake friends
i want connections that set my soul on fire
thank you

i am sick of not being entirely myself
i think it is time i let go of people's expectations
and do my own thing

i miss you more than you know
the thing is
i don't think i ever i cross your mind
and that hurts
it really kills me
to know you're fine without me
maybe happy
and i am struggling to get through my days
without seeing your face
crumbling at the very thought of you
i miss you so dearly

imagine our engagement
our wedding
so perfect
our home
decorated with our old records
starting a family
watching our children grow
growing old with you
til death do us part

why can't you just come back
say you miss me
and really mean it
why can't you love me again
make me smile
and stay forever

i want someone to hold on to
someone to let me know things will get better
maybe if someone told me i'd one day get through
i actually would
because i cannot help myself
all alone

i am the lonely one
not entirely alone
just lonely

i used to see in color
life used to be bright
now
everything is black and white
the colors have seeped out
everything is bland
it all looks the same to me

if only you knew
you're all i think about
from the moment i wake
to the second i fall asleep
and as i dream of you all through the night
i hope someday i can let you know
just what you mean to me
i'm just afraid
you won't feel the same
and i'll be left
heart broken
again

sitting here tonight
all i think of is you
i hear your voice
your laugh
i miss you
my darling
i miss you so much

one of these days you'll realize
what you mean to me
every now and then
i see a part of you
i've never seen

but you're stronger than that
you just can't see
the beauty you hold
the love you carry
please listen to me
you are worth it
you are beautiful
you will get through this

the rain is pouring tonight
it's clearing my mind
calming me
soothing me
it's cold so i wear a blanket
so cosy
so content

there's freedom in your eyes
sweet escape in your smile
warmth in your touch
comfort in your voice

i hope you smile
when you think of me
you remember my laugh
our jokes and secrets and travels
you will always be a part of me
please don't forget me

are we all too far away from each other
to notice those in need of extra love
there are many quietly hurting
silently dying
take more thought
give more love

cook up some bacon and eggs
brew a big ole *** of coffee
sit out on the back veranda
feel the warm sun
beautiful winter mornings

i am so sick and tired
of feeling so sick and tired
my anxiety controls me
most days aren't good days
i just want to do what i love again

feel the fresh morning dew
breathe in the crisp air
smell the blooming flowers
feel the peeling tree trunks
spring is here

a little more love
a little more kindness
a little more patience
a little more trust
a little more happy

see that boy over there
he could be yours
what is are you waiting for?
go get him

please remember
what you are going through right now
will not last forever
one day this moment in your life will be a memory
an experience that made you stronger and wiser
right now your demons are dragging you down
but just you wait
it won't be long until you can smile at them
because you have achieved the impossible
and you have conquered your fears
and you have inspired others
and you have grown as an individual
and beautiful things have come your way
for now you will get through each day
until you will wake up to a new chapter
a new beginning
hold tight beautiful human

don't push aside your desires
don't ignore the feelings screaming inside you
there is a reason for everything that happens in your life
nothing is just chance
or not meant to be
follow your heart
always

trying to learn self love
i want to be so easy going again
carefree
happy with just being me
i don't always feel good enough
in fact most days i feel horrible
it's hard because
all i want
is to fall in love
but before i can love anyone else
i have to fall in love
with myself

cold nights
hot tea
sad thoughts
happy dreams
quiet chatter
loud laughter
small steps
huge leaps

i can't stand how you laugh
snigger at those less fortunate than you
you selfish cruel man
i wish you and your ***** ****** kind
would just change
no one should be mocked
for things they can't control

i am beginning to learn
the power
in saying nothing

a storm is brewing
i hear the thunder rumbling
it's been drizzling all day
wet and damp
cold outside
the fire's on in the living room
it's warm and cosy
oh how i love rainy nights
