Why did people tell me,
every time that I was sad,
that there were always men for me,
it only made me mad.

Did they really believe that?
Or were they just being nice?
'cos many times I looked around,
but they were cold as ice.

Now every time I look at you,
it truly makes sense why.
It wasn't that they were too cold,
it was that they weren't my guy.

Sure there's plenty of fish in the sea, they just weren't the ones for me.

It's wrong, you know.

Places fly past in a blur of color,
All of the details lost to the wind,
Rushing here and there,
Knowing no one place,
Fixing the symptoms not the problems.

Patching together a human heart,
With duct tape and string,
Not love as it should be.
Not caring words.
Not help.
Not hope,
No.

Its all backwards,
We're doing this wrong,
Why does it have to be this way?

Outside of You

I can see it in your eyes,
Those fleeting moments,
Those flashes of hurt
Where it just
Kills
Me to live there outside of you.

Outside of your world
Where the feelings are gone
And the cold hard truth is

**Nothing matters.

Please?

Please,
Take my heart,
And run.

Run,
With my heart,
And soul.

Soul,
That can feel
The pain.

Pain,
That has touched
Your heart.

Heart,
That has torn
In two.

Two,
That can make
It one.

One,
That can cure
Me.

Me,
That can cure
You.

Happiness

Illusive, glowing, gilded light
ever so slightly out of reach.

Christmas

Star
on the top
of a Christmas tree.
Lights all around are sparkling.
Smells of hot cocoa and cinnamon too,
all of this leading my mind straight to you.
Love in the air, so hard to resist.
Singing of songs is so hard to miss, and
being so close to the people you love, makes
everything seem to glow from above.
But, nothing's the same without peppermint
canes, or chocolate Santas, or a warm fireplace,
or the breath of a child as they play in the snow,as
they're building a snowman, and their eyes start to glow.
Then    night
comes       so
soon       and
the  house  is
so quiet, then
children go to
bed,   though
they're  really
so        excited.

I really can't wait for Christmas!

Cry

It's okay to cry,
in the dark while they sleep.

But why is it thought
that it's weak to weep?

Does the light make it bad?

Is it wrong to be sad?

No, its okay to cry.

It does not make you weak.

It's not wrong if they see.

It's okay to admit
that you feel like ****,
and the world is closing in,
and your head likes to spin,
and you can't keep it in,
and everything else starts to win.

So, yes,
it is okay to cry,
even for a goodbye,
or when emotions are high,
yes,
it is okay to cry.

I struggled with this feeling for a very long time.
