Find something to do
Do what's asked of you
Speak when spoken to
Take what's offered you

I miss your smile
I miss your laugh
I miss your lips
I miss your hands
I miss your eyes
I miss your cheeks
I miss our time
I miss our weeks
I miss your house
I miss your friends
I miss your hugs
But it all ends

I miss your love
I miss your face
But you said you
Needed space

I miss your texts
I miss the mornings
But what I really miss
Is how much you
Used to love me

Because I didn't think
Of all things
That that was a lie
Too

No one should have to stay up
Stifling sobs
Because they don't feel worthy
Of someone's care

No one should ever feel guilty for
Loving someone
Or even showing interest in them

No one should ever have to feel
***** for brushing hands with
Their soul mate

No one should ever feel
Too ugly for society

No one should ever feel
Too vulnerable to express
Feelings they've had for
What seems like forever.

No family should ever
Make their child feel bad
For the style of music they like
Or books they read
Or clothes they wear
Or makeup they have

No girl should ever feel
Like no one could ever love her
Because of the way someone has told her
And convinced her
She is

No boy should ever be
Teased
And mocked
For feeling emotions stronger
Or deeper
Than others are capable of

The way he is treated
The way she is made out to be
The way they are made
To hate the sight of themselves
Should never have entered into human
Thought.
We are all beautiful
We are all lovely.

I wish someone would notice
What's wrong
I pray and pray but life just
Goes along
Why can't you hear my restless
Mournful song
Help me
Please
I'm drowning.
I'm drowning in these tears and no one sees.

One day I was wondering by
Was feeling like I could just cry
I looked at my hands
They shook from the glands
And a tear then escap-ed my eye

Steady hands, dear, hands steady
Ne'er say never, be ready
Listen, and don't speak,
Dance, my dear, and leap
Steady hands, dear, hands steady

I steadied them as I thought
My tears, I put back and fought
Whispered to myself
My fears on a shelf
Steady hands, dear, steady hands

Steady hands, dear, hands steady
Ne'er say never, be ready
Listen and don't speak
Dance, my dear and leap
Steady hands, dear, hands steady

I speak of experience
Worse luck I have not had since
Put on a brave face
Finish today's race
And tomorrow start it again

Steady hands, dear, hands steady
Ne'er say never, be ready
Listen and don't speak
Dance, my dear, and leap
Steady hands, dear, hands steady
When the waters are rough, put on a brave face, steady your hands, and finish the race. Tomorrow is a new day.

"You're not really alone"

But I feel alone
Don't try to fix it
By constantly trying to talk
Just listen
Help me find someone
Who makes me feel not alone.

You didn't mean to say it that way
So why does it hurt so much?
