the feeling of emptiness
haunts me
the smile you see
is not really me
unfortunately
I appear to be
the happy me
you don't get to see
that side of me
where all i do
is think of me
the unhappy me
is all i see
my thoughts
are no more
than the
death of me.
my twisted mind

do you believe in you
even at times
when you think
you don't have you
majority of the time
you don't

it feels like
you don't have
what it takes
to pull through
so you discount yourself
and just lack the faith
to get through

do you believe in you
especially when you have
no one around you
you feel alone
there is no one there
to hold you
to tell you
that this is just a moment,
where you need to believe,
in you

all you have is you
so don't be afraid
to leap on any stage
and tell the world
"i'm not afraid"
because all i have is me
but thats okay

so, believe in you,
at times when your doubt,
has you.
its you that will get you through
even if the world can't.
so believe in you.

Ashlea
I have been sitting,
Waiting,
Hoping,
Praying,
That you’d come back to me.
You’d see that what you left behind is someone who was special.
Is special.
But I continue to pray,
Hope,
Wish,
And sit
Until you come back home.
Where you belong.
I hold you tight up against my body
I take you with me even to the party

I rub you back and forth
Up and down from south to north

I love the way you sing hard and soft
I just can't keep my hands off

I pull you close
From coast to coast

You are beautifully sound
I will never pass you around

Magnificently perfect
You have all of my respect

You are my best friend
Till the end

look at me.
i am afraid to see,
if i am me.
two worlds,
i see.
two minds,
in me.
yet none of them,
are true to me.
i am afraid of me.
am i  me?
only time will tell.
whether.
i'll be free.

I feel like I'm alone,
Lost in this world,
Without no where to go.
Sometimes,
I'm like,
Forget this world.
I'm gone.

How can I have,
My friends and family around,
Yet  feel so cold,
Still have this hole.
I feel so lost.

Oh Lord save me.
These lonely nights,
Are making me hate me.
Didn't you say you,
Made me.
Changed me.
Saved me.
Lord don't forsake me.

My heart's telling me,
You got me.
But my mind feels,
Like you don't want me.
I feel so lost.
But in God, I trust.
Lord save me.

Last Day
Its your last day, our last stay.
Why you not awake,
Open your eyes for me
And lets pray.
This was not a mistake
How we met on that day
In that same place.
Me and you together, thats what they say.

So, please wake and,
Wait till we both hit the hay.
Cause watching you fall asleep,
Is causing me so much pain.
Were in the same space, same place.
Open your eyes for me,
So we can play our last game,
talk this last talk and
End my pain.

Please don't leave me.
Don't you free me.
Cause you need me,
To guide you through this.
I can feel your pain.
At ease without you being awake
I understand its your last day.
Better to have your eyes closed,
To ensure we don't make no mistake.

I will pray,
Guide you through this,
To those forgotten gates,
On the other side
I will stay.
I will ensure your body remains at our place.
I will not forget you
I promise, I have that faith.

— The End —
