As my fingers trace the keyboard,
searching,
Lurking for that perfect word.
It dawns on me,
I need not search nor ponder the words you desire.
It was carelessness in those words,
my true self that made its way to your eyes.
And put myself in a view that needed no disguise.
You wonder who I truly am,
if the words you read are placed gently upon your screen.
But what you read is what you get,
and I know I'll never regret.
For I am me, in all my self proclaimed glory.
And love myself, no need to make up a story.
So accept me as I am,
And you too will never regret,
The friend you have made,
And times you won't forget.

I see your heart melting with every word you write.
It wasn't intended, but it's hard to fight.
You'll think of me when you lay down your head.
You'll tell yourself "no" and think of chores instead.
I'll sneak back in, into your mind, into your heart.
Fantasize, realize, be mesmerized at the note that lies before your eyes.

There's no medicine for the pain, no bandage can mend the wounds that you've inflicted...
How do I maintain, how do I let go without feeling conflicted?
If time is my doctor then the doctor is out, why am I filled with so much doubt?
Is this pain my destiny? I fear this is what's meant for me.
I've got so many questions, I've learned so many lessons.
This lecture is getting old, I'm starting to feel cold...

My broken soul
A story to be told
A story of pain, heartache, and a heart that's been too bold.
I love without end.
To both family and friends.
I receive but a dime, for my thoughts and my time.
I want to love all and feel the same in return.
But that is my curse, my candle to burn.

Minute by minute
Hour by hour
I strive to forget
But all it does is devour
My every thought
My every waking moment
The pain that was inflicted
It seems as if I'm addicted
Eating away
At my soul
My pride
My heart

As the sky does its thing and pours down upon me;
I feel it wash away the pain, with hope of light to see.
The clouds will soon break and the sun will soon shine;
With just enough time to feed my new life.
Like a seed within the ground, I lie and wait for that chance;
To put down some roots and speak of only one I romance.
Like a flower I'll rise, to breathe this new life;
When you look upon the new me, you too shall see.
The laughter you'll hear,
With whom I hold dear;
The smiles you'll see,
and how grand life can be.
All bundled up;
In the new me...
