as i breathe in the wicked cold air
it caresses my forsaken lungs
and makes me realize how truly mortal we are

its enough to make me sick
the air we breathe
the things we see
and its so hard
to just sit here
and not have the ability
to do anything

and its such a paradox
because its so beautiful

the air rushes through my body
sending a shiver down my spine
and i freeze
just like the bitter snow
on the ground

but i see
as the seasons change
and the wicked cold goes away
splendor and joy replace the bitterness
and pain

and it is in my mind
that the same will happen for the world

when this time of tragedy and darkness
come to pass
we will have pleasure and joy
that will come to last

Broken bottles and crystal powders
So many drugs you'll be high for hours
The corroding building where you go to play
is the only place where your thoughts go astray

Eyes are coated in the eyeliner from yesterday
Prone to exponential decay
Mind shut off the worries and doubts
don't want those thoughts coming out

Untied Converse with a grunge toe
waiting in line for your necessary espresso
A few dollars left but not enough
to get the approaching bus to slow down

You're stuck on the corner long enough for the kind man to give you a ride
You quickly accept and give him a small smile
Unsuspectingly hopped in the car
and closed your eyes to dream
He slams on the brakes at a stop sign and you begin to think
Turning a slight cheek as he gives you a discreet wink, you crack open the door and jump out on the street.

Your alias can't save you now
Popped, Swallowed, and Drowned
Mind to foggy to hold your doubt
swinging your fist as he follows you down
Probably should've thought this one through right about now...

Running and Running as fast as you can
But you tripped on your shoe lace, so he throws you his backhand.
You look down at the asphalt
thinking this is it
you could've saved yourself
but your mouth was too quick.

All the stars
In the sky
The raindrops
From way up high
When they no longer sparkle
No longer fall
I will lye in the soil of your dead garden
Stare into the sky
Like I did with your blue eyes

"I seem to recall a world where people weren't such a-holes all the time, but maybe I'm just paying more attention" ~ quote by some guy smoking a cigarette outside of a restaurant

So there's just one lil ordinary girl'
Trying to set free her own world.
Left by her biological dad, taken from her mom at 3.
When she got old enough to know,
That's when her life turned upside down.
Always seeing the lil girl with frowns,
Makes you wanna turn them upside down.
She had felt like leaving town and everyone else behind her.
Thinking of it made her feel so unkind.
As everything goes on,
Look through the stars and beyond.
No matter what them all have gotta do,
They'll never keep her away from you.

I am in love with you
I wonder why i feel this way
I hear dreams come true
I see the twinkling stars
I want you to feel the same way
I am in love with you

I pretend I'm living a fantasy
I feel so special to have you
I touch the warmness of your lips
I worry you will leave soon
I cry when you are not here
I am in love with you

I understand I'm too young to feel this way
I say no one can keep us apart
I dream you're my prince charming
I try not to let them get to me
I hope you know what you mean to me
I am in love with you

Every girl needs that one special someone in her life.
She needs someone to tell her she is not only ****, but beautiful.
Tell her she is even beautiful in her own way too.
Tell her the positive advice she needs to hear for her to be led on the right road.
Be her shoulder to cry on as you wipe her tears away... even if you made her beautiful eyes cry waterfalls.
Not only compliment her in person, but also through the phone.
Call her randomly throughout the day even if it is just for a minute... to remind her how much you love her.
You do not have to buy her bouquets of flowers to surprise her, just simply go for romantic walks and pick a pretty flower for her and put it in her hair.
Doing that one little thing will certainly brighten up her day.
All every girl wants is to be loved and to smile, not a fake smile for show and tell, but a real genuine smile.
It is the simplest little things that matter the most.
Write her love letters so she can re-read them when your are unavailable.
Surprise her by putting little gifts or poetry in her locker, or in her books, or even sneak it into her bag.
She wants the romantic walks on the beach, a candle lit dinner, picnics, stargazing, him playing a song for her acoustically, holding her hand in public, kissing in public, going to an arcade, wearing matching clothes and much more.
Every girl wants a ring on her finger.
But if you can not afford a fancy ring, then buy her a promise ring, get down on one knee, and purpose to her and have that promise ring be a promise that she will get the ring of her dreams eventually.
Every girl not only wants love, but to be loved.
Its the little simplest things that can matter the whole world to her.

You did mean something to me.
But you realized you did not need me as much as i needed you.
You not only left me, but you left scars behind too.
Not just any random scars, but the kind of scars that can never go away.
They imprinted on me.
You did not make grab the weapon and drip gooey red slime, but you encouraged me too.
You did not have to say anything, but I could see the look in your eyes.
Encouragement
