talking time
Shannon Ferralli Aug 2013
I can't help but to cry
the flame has begun to die
it's the bottom we have hit
full of solid rock
i can hear the chiming of the clock
ticking and tocking, but really its talking
so many questions to ask
all the answers I want to mask
is it the time I am wasting
a love that is fading
of just a heart I'm in the process of breaking
we sure have been persistent
but lately I just want my distance
I feel myself giving up
But on what...
Is it love?!
it could be your feelings that I fear
or that you have given your life to your career
I have yet to leave, I'm still here
I'm so proud of you, no doubt about that
& I miss you, that is a fact
will I ever really get you back?
were you ever even mine?
& there it goes again, I hear the chime...
The talking time

Tick-tock
Shannon Ferralli Apr 2013
I sit in silence simply thinking
Then I feel a thought stick
                                        stick
                                            sticking
My thoughts diverge from the stick and start to tick
                                                                                    tick
                                                                                        tick
                                                                                            ticking
ticking and tocking
I feel my body begin rocking
back and forth
which way to go
the challenge ahead
a world unknown
world full of madness
inevitable sadness

Over
Shannon Ferralli Apr 2013
The truth is hard to take
When you know love is at stake
It's always best to know
before you become a show
Foolish pride
denial your love has died
As the clouds begin to bare rain
As you're fighting to stop the pain
Going out searching for someone, anyone
To make that break just a sprain
Time will fix this injury on the heart
Soon you'll be thankful for the day you split apart

F.W.B
Shannon Ferralli Apr 2013
The way you make me roll my eyes
The way you sing in the car
The way you make me sigh
You're not very close, but never too far
You're someone I adore
Leave me always wanting more

My Guy In Blue
Shannon Ferralli Apr 2013
This one is for you, my man in blue
Your touch I miss, your warm soft kiss
A strong and tough guy, my angel in disguise
A man like you has a lot of nerve, to do what you do, to protect and serve
I saw it from the start, your big huge heart
You give all that you have, just to wear that badge
Full of confidence and full of pride, you'll wear that uniform until the day you die
Intentions sincere, you show no fear
Always seeing hate and crime, willingly devoting all your time
You tell me it's all worth it, no chance you'll ever quit
I'll never ask this of you, because I know only one thing is true
As selfless as you seem, you are living out your dream
To know you gives me pride, I love being by your side
I love you more than words can say, And think about and pray for you each and every day
My guy in blue, if only you knew
How much you are protected and loved from the Lord above
You're a cut above the rest, and a force to be reckoned with my dear, Officer West

Toy
Shannon Ferralli Apr 2013
Toy
You want to use my body, you want to see me naked
There is no giving, just an ****** taken

You're only worry is getting your rock's off
Hoping I'll obey, lay still and soft
You do as you please
Thrusting and tugging, no grace, no ease

"No, I can't, This isn't me."
Another pump, maybe two, maybe three
I said no, you said yes
Make it stop, I feel helpless

When will this end
I should have went home with my friend
This has to be my fault
A story locked away in a secret vault

I am okay, it's not like I died
All that's lost are the tears I have cried
I still have my body, you have your pride
Knowing you came on a girl while she was screaming inside

You clean up the mess
That's the least you can do after being so selfish
Immature, rude, young college boy
What am I to you, just a toy?

You have a lot to learn
From now on respect is not given it is earned
You are the dirt on the bottom of my shoe
I hate you

You used my body and saw me naked
An ****** taken

— The End —
