Have you ever heard
heard of a place
a wonderful place
Where the sun always shines
the birds always sing
the grass is always green
it is beautiful
no monsters live there
please come with me
it's only over the rainbow
past the desert
and through the lake
please oh please
I need your company
I need you with me
Come oh come
To this perfect place
Verse 1:

He noticed her sad eyes,

And asked her why she was so sad.

She said it was because of the way she looked

And he couldn't understand.

Bridge:

But you're the most beautiful girl I've seen.

So why can't you see?

Chorus:

You are the most beautiful and unbelievable

Girl I have ever met

And you are wonderful, simply wonderful.

How could you not know it?

I could tell you in a million ways

Baby I think, you're beautiful, yeah

Verse 2:

She asked him why he felt that way

Since no one had ever said that before

He said that it had always been true

She just didn't know.

Bridge:

He looked at her with love in his eyes

Then he smiled at her and said

Chorus again then:

I've known this from the day we met

Whoa, oh, you're beautiful

Why can't I make you see?

How much you mean to me?

Chorus once more, then:

He noticed her sad eyes,
And asked her why she was so sad.
This is not a poem. These are the words to a song I wrote. I'm gonna be writing songs and short stories on here. So look out for those and comment to tell me what you think.
As I lie awake at night I can’t help, but think
Think of all the things that person said to me
Think of all the ways I’ve embarrassed myself
Think of all the things I said to that boy
While he wasn’t giving me a second of his time

I didn’t ask for this
I didn’t ask for these thoughts to run through my head
All these ‘What if’s and ‘No, not that’s
I didn’t ask to get chocked up every time I talk to someone because I’m afraid I might say something I might regret.
And yet, that seems to be every word that tumbles from my mouth
Like a faucet full of remorse that can not be shut off

Watching other people I can only seem to hate them as I pray to some sort of all-powering being that I will be able to over-come this
That one day I will be able to freely roll words off of my tongue without wishing I could gobble them back up.
And yet everyone else is able to do it
They are all able to say what they want
To express their opinions with no second thoughts
With no worries that someone might disagree

Every morning is a struggle just to pry myself from my sheets
To face every day with a smile
Because lately even picking out a outfit I find exceptable seems torturous
And then half way through first period I decide I shouldn’t have worn it

And there’s no escape
I always have this weight on my shoulder that is weighed down with nasty words my brain has formed
Picking at the slivers of self-confidence I have left.
Like a hungry Vulture cleaning up scraps on the side of the road

And some people have to power to fix it
They become stronger
And learn how to be better
And I? I lie awake at night. And I can’t help but think
The man of life upright, whose guiltless heart is free
From all dishonest deeds and thoughts of vanity:
The man whose silent days in harmless joys are spent,
Whom hopes cannot delude, nor fortune discontent;
That man needs neither towers nor armor for defense,
Nor secret vaults to fly from thunder's violence:
He only can behold with unaffrighted eyes
The horrors of the deep and terrors of the skies;
Thus scorning all the care that fate or fortune brings,
He makes the heaven his book, his wisdom heavenly things;
Good thoughts his only friends, his wealth a well-spent age,
The earth his sober inn and quiet pilgrimage.
oh, you fragile
misguided thing

your care& lust
worn on your sleeve

troubled mind
struggling to conceive

oh, the heavy words
i had to breathe

and make no mistake
those stains are tears
your humanity is there
though humanity is cruel

dealing with the cards
you were dealt
in the only ways
you know how

make no mistake
you're allowed to feel

and pain is all
you know is real

i am the cause,
i'm at the wheel

but not like how
you felt appealed

and you walk off
night guides your way

to where or whom
you wish to lay

and that's okay

different
but misguided just the same

walking the aimless
borders of insane

thought you found warmth
to rest your weary bones

but tonight i'm walking home
alone
