Have you seen my words?
Did you take them with you when you left?
Because yesterday I know
I still have the right words to say
But now, it's like I'm filling in the spaces.

Have you seen my words?
Did you take them with you when you left?
Did you hide them behind the moon?
Because you know every night I'll stare at it
And every night I'll wonder if you're behind the moon too.

Maybe you hid them among the stars
Every shining one carrying a word
Because you know that I'll get tired counting them all.

Or did you put it in the wolf's howl?
Thinking I'll notice the similarities of the rhythm
And I'll stay awake and think of you instead.

Did you hide them underneath the tree
In the same place where we buried our pain and tears
So that for another time I'll let go of the pain I'm enduring?

Tell me if they're hidden in the treasure chest I never opened
Do you want me to unlock it
And face the secrets I've feared?

Did you mess up the words in my favorite book
So that I'll stop reading it, imagining
And reach my dreams instead?

The words, are they inside the vase
Where I display fresh flowers
So I won't notice them but see that there's something more beautiful?

Please do tell
I hope you haven't lost them
I hope you kept them but please say
For when you left you took my heart with you
And if you took my words you took my soul too.
Filling in blanks.

Cause I'm in some rough headspace,
But only in the state of confusion,
Saving all of the ******* for later
Then each time getting a bad result,
It's not my fault,
I will forever and always be a prison,
Kissing doesn't help,
She told me what was my mother like,
And I said just a twisted version of me,
Then she asked about my father,
I said i didn't have one but guess that's every
Black boy's dream,
And it's also not easy being 18 years old,
With no job and disfunctional family,
Now you see,
With a swift pen,
I write poetry,
To escape the harsh reality
Of even being on this planet
And people that have special needs,
And what I need is a non purposeful life
To have meaning,
Now let's talk about you cause
It's enough about me.
Life Is hard as it is
Javier A Solá Jan 2016
As I lie in my bed In the middle of the night, my memories come,
And go twisting my moments
Into dark memories.

Hunting me every night saying;
The words I never spoke,
And the things that lie before me
Taking shape of people I know.

Taking over, making me mad
With the false images of the forms they take.

Taking my soul part by part  the thought of death reaching, feeding,
on my pain and despair.
I Really love this one i made líke some weeks and mi inspiración was a Really bad day that i had

Need: to feel to love to care to give to take
Want: to feel to love to care to give to take
Have: to feel to love to care to give to take
Gone: no feeling no love no caring no giving no taking
you see, my heart is literally breaking.
Love just plain is not real. It's NOT.
Sad :(

There's not enough songs about being alone.

Not like your friends are busy and your family is out and you've just had your heart broken.

Like your friends were never really your friends and have finally given up on the charade. Like your family is surrounding you physically, but they just don't understand - because they just don't care. Like you've gone your whole entire God ****** life without being called beautiful by anyone that matters - let alone be loved by someone. Like you give and give to anyone who is willing to take - anyone who even looks your way without a hint of disgust on their face - you give until you're empty and you have nothing left. You can't even keep yourself company because some part of you is convinced you don't even exist. Like the loneliness that drives you absolutely insane.

Exactly that kind of alone.

take time* to have Friends ,
                                               it's the way to happiness.

take time to dream ,
                                      it's your way to the stars.

take time to love ,
                                  it's your way to the sky.

take time to be loved ,
                                       it's your way to the privilege of kings.

take time to admire what's around you ,
                                                           ­            Days're too short.

take time to live ,
                                    it's the musique of your soul

Take me where the sun glimmers off the beautiful blue sea.
Where the kids splash and the adolescents surf.
Where the kids prance while the hula dancers dance.
Take me to the place where everyone goes.
The beautiful get away.

I've only been there in my dreams.
It's as magical as everyone said it to be.
Long board walk beaches that seem to go to the end of the earth.
Villages built in the 1800's filled with kids that know nothing but happiness.
I aspire to be one of those kids.

Take me there so I don't have to feel like I'm drowning when I'm not even in water.
Take me because I've come bored of this place I call home.
The people who I call friends have come annoyed with me
And I'm unhappy with the ones I call family.
So take me away where I can start a new life.
I'm done here.

I am neither black or white
I am not taking sides
I am both
I will listen to your woes
I am not a judge
On who's right or not
It's not in my hands
So, don't try to win me
I will never be
A black for you
Or a white for him

I am gray.
*when they wanted me to take side.

A flower is something
You give it love.
A flower is something
You give it water.
A flower is something
Who help you breath.
A flower is something
Who makes you smile.
**even if you don't want all of this you take it cause you just and simply need it
Be happy to take something even if you don't want it
Cause know one thing
Even if you don't want it
Your body need it

Stand tall and unafraid
As we take back the night
Do not fear the darkness
For it's only lacking light
Let your light shine through you
And guide you through the terror
These men do not rule the world
Just because they see us as fairer
We are mighty and as one
We will overcome
Together, we'll set a blaze so bright
Together, we'll take back the night
for all the women who don't feel safe walking the streets on their own. WE SHOULD'NT HAVE TO BE AFRAID! STAND TOGETHER AND TAKE BACK THE NIGHT!
