Stay Awhile
Taylen Jul 2017
I can look away
Towards the setting sun today
Because my tomorrows have gone
Leaving me in the dark

I live my life the way you want
But our life story is a different font
But I can stop that now
And I can show you how


I have lived and died
1000 times for you
And I know that
It's too late
To change your inner view

I have faked my smile
I have forced my laugh
I have faded away
To stand alone
When I want you to stay awhile


Hurt is all I feel
How easy is it to ****
You take my own life from me
Although I never really go

And every time I die
I can't help but cry
I think of how I know the light
But all I can see is that endless night


I have lived and died
1000 times for you
And I know that
It's too late
To change your inner view

I have faked my smile
I have forced my laugh
I have faded away
To stand alone
When I want you to stay awhile


And although i now am  falling
I can hear you calling
To come back to the light
But you know deep down that
It's too late for that now and
I'll leave so say goodbye


I have lived and died
1000 times for you
And I know that
It's too late
To change your inner view

I have faked my smile
I have forced my laugh
I have faded away
To stand alone
When I want you to stay awhile

I have faded away
To stand alone
When I want you to stay awhile

Senses (Coming Home)
Taylen Jun 2017
I can almost see the trees as they bend forward, bowing down to the wind as it passed by I can almost hear it as it weaves around the fading hills. I can hear it’s gentle cry as it calls for me to come back to where I belong. I can almost taste the rain as it falls gently down upon my skin, like a longing message; begging, pleading for my return. Every morning, I step out and smell the dewy mornings and the spring flowers. But it’s nothing but Illusion. All that passes is black, white and grey. Tall shadows loom over me and as each day goes into the west. I sigh and let myself fall into a world where tall hills stretch out for miles and miles; and bright colours fill the sky at the farewell of an old day, and the greeting of a new one. Birds are calling from far away, and the sudden urge to return is there once more. As I lay down, I delve further into my world of memory. I know that I've been called home, and someday, I'll return.
Wrote this for a homework peice recently. Hope you enjoy!

Haunted Memory
Taylen Jul 2017
I'm standing alone as you watch me
As the tears fall down my face
You ignore my desperate pleas of help
And although you feel you have kindness and grace
You turn without leaving a trace of

Knowledge that I'm standing alone in the shadows
As I take  a breath and laugh
I think as my mind falls into the dark
That you'll soon miss me


And I'm sorry that you were too blind to know
That our yesterdays have gone
And I'm sorry that I'm letting my broken life go
But I can't face another dawn

You left me alone in these darkened halls
Where I waited for me to die
And although I heard their desperate calls
I knew that I had to say goodbye

I know what you think when I do this
Your glare tells me that you
Think you know what I feel when
You leave me fending on my own do
You ever fight the shadows alone?

You don't live with a constant feeling
That says you're not worth it at all
They send me into the darkness and
With no pride before I fall
Because now the shadow has taken a hold

And I'm sorry that you were too blind to know
That our yesterdays have gone
And I'm sorry that I'm letting my broken life go
But I can't face another dawn

You left me alone in these darkened halls
Where I waited for me to die
And although I heard their desperate calls
I knew that I had to say goodbye

I see the pity in your eyes
As your light starts to shine and mine starts to die
But it's too late. Too late for that now
Your mind is filled with all kind of fears
The ones that haunted my mind for years
And we'll let the tears fall down
As the shadows rise



And I'm sorry that you were too blind to know
That our yesterdays have gone
And I'm sorry that I'm letting my broken life go
But I can't face another dawn

You left me alone in these darkened halls
Where I waited for me to die
And although I heard their desperate calls
I knew that I had to say goodbye

I knew that I had to say goodbye
I made this into a YouTube video

How do you know
Taylen Jul 2017
How do you know
That tomorrow is a new day for me?
How do you know
That I truly think
That I am strong?
I don't
And I live
Just so you will know
That it was never for you

Because I refuse to live
Another day
When you think
For all this time
I stayed alive
For you...
That was to my 'friend'. I'm a suicidal 12 year old.
