remember when i told you-
you were my sunshine?
my skies were filled with laughter
and you would always cross my mind

remember when i told you
that i would always stay?
its hard to keep a promise;
it'll obviously fade away

and i knew
that with you,
i'm not the same

remember when i told you
that having you beside me
makes me feel like
life is so much easier

remember when i told you
you were an angel
you were like 'heaven sent'
only we were never meant
never meant to be together

we were almost there
we were almost falling in-love
funny thing is, you thought i'd never hurt this way
but its sad to believe, i pushed you away

because i knew,
that with you,
i'm not the same-
when i knew,
i loved you so

I like to take a dip in the poetry well
when my life seems to be dry
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
when I question why
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
when I lost the courage to try something new
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
when I need encouragement then I get it from you
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
to ease some anxiety
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
let my emotions swell
I take to take a dip in the poetry well
while holding paper and a pen
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
where inspiration never ends
I like to take a dip in the poetry well
where I can gather with my friends
This is for All My Hello Poetry Friends!!!!
Thank You so much for your friendship and encouragement!!!

Here i am,
stuck in my own little cage
trying to fix what needs to be fixed
sitting on the chair by the window-
my head hopelessly resting
trying to figure out what i should do
before everything's too late

this is my fault

I wish i was never born
I wish that i never grew up
and I wish i died

So that everybody could live their lives
happily and problem-free
So that they could worry about nothing
except on how they should spend their money
rather than buying endless
useless
crap on me

this isn't the life i wanted for them
who cares about me anyway?
i'm just here...
and i'm ready to give up
i'm ready to give a life
for someone who needs it more than i do
i'm ready to make someone evilly happy
especially
of course, my 'enemy'
My enemy, that i never knew in my whole entire life
My enemy, who i never knew she even existed

I just want everybody to be happy
and not worry about me
but who am i kidding?
the only person that's worrying about me
is myself
the only person that i want to be happy
is myself-
and i'm ready to save myself
Except i need to start fighting for myself
only because i knew that my enemy;
the only person who hated me and wanted me dead
was myself.

Its always better to tell the truth
and make someone cry,
rather than
making a person happy
when its all just a lie.

I didn't even ask for karma
yet it hit you anyway

you say vile words that hurt;
but you see,
its okay for me.

you say rasping words that hurt;
but you see,
its still okay for me.

you blurt out painful truths that hurt;
you drag me down out at sea
but no matter how deep it is
and how hard i try to breathe,

it will invariably be okay for me,
even when its not supposed to be.
