In exhalation
                       my life
was breathed
        on all I knew...

Lost my self trying to please everyone else....
        Now im losing everyone else trying
          to find myself ......

The crowd pushes and pulls
Motioning forward without effort
Life has a way of happening
Without intention

Tan slacks
Brown shoes
Matching belt
Lost in the landscape
Within the throng of humans

I am one of the many others
I am one of the obscure
That is me there
Yes, there I am

Others may not remember you
For what you say or what you do;
How you make them feel however
They will never forget, ever

Dear Mom and Dad,
Forgive me for I have forgotten what it's like to wake up to both of your smiles.
Forgive me for I still hate the sound of your endless bickering.
Forgive for I don't try hard enough.
Forgive for I am tired.
Forgive me for I live out of a backpack.
Forgive me for you no longer sleep under the same roof.

Dear Brother,
Forgive me for I don't want you to leave.
Forgive me for I don't open up to you.
Forgive me for you have to wipe away my salty tears.
Forgive me for you have to be strong for the both of us.  

Dear Best Friends,
Forgive me for I am too close to your boyfriend.
Forgive me for I don't believe your crush will ever like you.
Forgive me for I ignore you when you talk about leaving.
Forgive me for I don't talk to you anymore.
Forgive me for I am selfish.

Dear crush,
Forgive me for I like you.
Forgive me for I think of you.
Forgive me for I make fun of you and tease you.
Forgive me for I admire your soft lips.
Forgive me for I stare at you.
Forgive me for I want to feel love.

Dear Others,
Forgive me for I am Myself.
Forgive me for I hate the way I look.
Forgive me for I get sad.
Forgive me for I disagree with people.
Forgive me for I like to dance.
Forgive me for I like to write.
Forgive me for I like to read.
Forgive me for I complain.
Forgive me for I am Human.

Don't let others get
your spirit down.
There will always be people
that love to read and share
their moments of inspiration.
Being creative in words
you feel.
Make you feel better
like a spinning wheel.
Inspire yourself
to inspire others.
Together we can do
so much more.
Don't let it go to waste
by shutting the door.

When you feel all alone.
No comfort at home.
Look at the star that shines
most apart from the others.
He gives light to his brothers.
Like you there are many others.
Who feel the same way.
But we all need each other
to stand strong and helping
one another.
Take a deep breath.
Lose the negativity in your head.
Love yourself.
Separate your wants from your needs.
Even a fragile heart can be strong
while it bleeds.

I can't handle this kind of pain anymore
It's so repetitive like the waves kissing the seashore
It's so deep like the pearls lying on the sea's floor    
It's like a thousand years of this or more
Will rip open the wounds I had before
I can't close my eyes without seeing the expression you wore
And when I see it I can feel your hands as they tore
My heart aches but this pain is worse than any I ever bore
I can't handle this kind of pain anymore
