i think she was afraid to love sometimes,
i think it scared her,
she was the type to like things like concrete, like the ocean.
something you could point to and know what it was....
and i think thats why she struggled with love,
she couldn't touch it,
she couldn't hold onto it and make sure it didn't change....
The guy you love today,
May not be the same person the day after.

Are you ready,
To accept the new him at each phase of his life?

Do you demand that he stay,
Consistently the same day in day out throughout the years?

Seasons come and seasons go,
Flowers bloom and flowers wither,
Skies blue and skies grey,
Yet you can learn to appreciate them all.

Do you love him enough,
To accept him at all the different phases that he is going through?
Do you love him enough,
To let him grow and change just as you grow and change too?

May you learn to love the guy you love,
When I first met you, I didn't give it a second thought
But after a few hours I knew that I was caught
I loved your hair, your voice, and your smile
I knew I could make it work if we just talked for awhile
But that wasn't as easy as I thought it would be
because for some reason you just didn't want to talk to me
But that soon changed and you stole my heart
I didn't trust you, but it was a start
I had so much fun, but it was over so fast
Now all I can wonder is how long these feelings will last?
Years later, the feelings are still here...
maybe you'll never feel the same and that's my biggest fear.
Maybe someday you'll wake up and realize just what you mean to me,
but probably not,
so I'll move on and find the one meant for me
There he goes walking with his friends
Little does he know he's got my heart tucked in his back pocket
I stand there waitin' for you to notice
That I'm crushin on you, boy, and I just can't stop it

He flashes a smile and I melt like butter
He speaks to me and I can only stutter

Here I stand staring at my feet
When he walks by, can he hear my heart beat?
It's got its melody when he's around
He picks me up when I'm feeling down

When he looks into my eyes and smiles
Can he see how much he drives me wild?
He's adorable and wonderful
Incredible and unbelievable

I wish I could tell him everything I feel
And hearts not the only thing I want to steal
His breath, his kiss
I wanna be the one he'll miss

When he closes his eyes
Wanna be his last goodbye
His most treasured
Forever...
When I say I love you I do
But this with you will not do
I need someone I can lean on
Someone I can count on too

Yes you are there sometimes
For that I am grateful to you
But I need someone there full time
And that you can not do

You told me once you loved me
That I could believe in you
I was there when you needed someone
Where were you when I needed someone, too?

The time has come for me to let go
Never to expect you to care again
People may come and people may go
But my love will never end

J.W......
Life is tough--that's what they say,
But they don't know what it's like every day,
To wake up in the morning and go to school,
Just so people can test you and prove you're a fool.

The teacher says you obviously didn't try,
But they don't know you go to your room and cry.
You did put in effort, you did your part,
They just don't understand you're not that smart.

Then comes the pressure from your mum and dad,
Who are so clearly disappointed that your grades are bad.
You are punished and picked on for the rest of the year,
Because you finally gave up on the future career
That was once so close, but is now so distant,
However, your teachers and parents are still insistent.

It's hard enough getting up and going to class,
Without the pressure and expectation that you have to pass.
The worst part, however, is not that you're a disappointment,
It's the permanent, never ending embarrassment
Of always failing and coming last,
Of never being good enough, your confidence dropping fast.

Everyone else seems to be doing just fine,
Their parents are all proud, unlike mine.
Honestly, I can't think of a worse place than this,
When in reality it's made out to be somewhere we should miss.
I won't miss it, I'll be glad to leave,
Five years wasted because failure is all I ever received.

I know it's my fault and that I'm the one to blame.
I gave up so early on because I was ashamed.
To my family I'm a failure, and I'm a failure to myself,
Everyone's high expectations only damaged my metal health.

If I ever have kids I will always try
To make sure the fear of failure is not the reason they ever cry.
People need to understand school's no longer fun or good,
'Cause some of us don't fit in, although we wish we could.
not everyone is perfect
not everyone is who they want to bee
not everyone is who other people want them to be
not everyone is like you

some people hate themselves
some people love themselves
some people are sick
some people are dying

people are rude and inconsiderate
they don't care about others feelings
they don't care about anyone but themselves

I'm sorry I'm not who everyone wants me to be
I'm sorry I'm sick and I have medications that change me
I'm sorry that I'm dying and  no one cares
I'm sorry that I'm just   not good enough for anyone

you want me to change but   I cant
I want me to change but   I cant
lets get things straight..
you cant always get what we want can we?

— The End —
