The Silence Mar 2017
You're my everything
My heart is tied to you
My love sewn into you skin
My flesh to hold you closer
Tighter
And I hope that isn't pushing you away
Because you have my heart tied
My love sewn into your skin
To have you leave is to take a piece
A piece of me
My flesh broken from you
Shattered
So I say that you're my everything
And that you've got a piece of me
That I would hold you closer
Tighter
And I hope
I just hope
I carry your heart on a string
And your love into my skin
As you hold a part of me,
**And I hold a part of you.
This is a bit cheesy and soft. Sorry ^~^
The Silence Mar 2017
The class begins
The hell breaks free
This chemical knowledge
Burns straight through me
I have one quest
To pass one test
But even so
My victory is
Short lived.
The Silence Mar 2017
Wind whips across my face,
as I stand along the shore.
Sun burning untouched skin,
my body aching for more.
Sand slips between my fingers,
each grain soft and golden.
On my legs the sea salt lingers,
creating a scent worth holding.
The Silence Mar 2017
Her face was blank,
her eyes like glass.
Her heart had sunk,
her love was less.
She is alone,
she is afraid.
She's in a zone,
her mood had swayed.
He did not care,
he did not think.
His merciless stare,
left hopes to sink.
When he departed,
when she restarted,
their lives brand new,
having to redo.
Memories lost, ties undone,
priceless cost, she lost, he won.
The Silence Mar 2017
Do you see me or the girl in the mirror?
The one without fears,
or the one filled with tears?
The one standing tall,
or with back against wall?
Quietly smiling, happy and bright,
or easily frightened, holding herself tight?
Always accomplished, always content,
or never enlightened, never unbent?
Perfect features brightening the room,
or scared open eyes awaiting her doom?
Now that you can see who I really am,
who will you choose to hold hand in hand?

She's more than you see, her worth simply priceless,
if you let her be, you may find her lifeless.
The Silence Mar 2017
If love was lost, would all be hate?
If time was gone, would we be left to wait?
If money was worthless, would stealing be wrong?
If cures were hopeless, would life last long?
Questions surround, closing me in.
Answers unfound, will knowledge win?
The Silence Mar 2017
You look to the clock and wait for the bell
Work set aside for thoughts of tomorrow
Unable to endure the rest of this class
This day
This year
You view high school as the dark  tunnel of your youth
And ask if there's a light at the end
You lose the purpose among other things
Though constantly haunted by reminders of grades
College
SATs
Taken over by stress
And eaten away by  uncertainty
Forced to test your comedic abilities
But
You are built with the power of strength
Knowledge
Patience
And each day you grow in these attributes
Maximize your potential
Take weaknesses to your advantage
Now, you look to the clock and wait
Wait for the future you shaped in this class
This day
This year.
