When eye feel
Eye drown in emotions
Then eye learned to swim
Now eye reside in that ocean
Floating through life
Eye swell up with water
Making my breathing
Just a little bit harder

To hate is to feel strong
but to be weak

to love is to be strong
but to feel weak

I looked in the mirror
afraid to sneak a peek

expected a coward
but behold there stood a lion!

He made me feel my flaws
did not exist.

flattering kisses
my lips could not resist.

tickled me pink
I wore his compliments like tattoo ink.

and it's not that I suffer from low self esteem
It's just I always wanted to feel something

Truth is: I've never felt special.
Not to anyone, besides handsome Jesus and the ugly devil.

She was afraid when her eyes led astray
but was filled with joy of happiness and gay
she had this feeling that he'd make her okay.

I loved you right away.
awoke to mornings,
you were the sun to my day.

I loved you right away
lost, I'd think of you and feel at home
you were my way.

I loved you right away
the reason my heart hurts
is because I always expected you to stay.

Now tears of sadness
cuddles her frail body
the side of her bed, where he used to lay.

My mind tells me I'm fine,                            
my memory gets worse with time.

My body tells me I'm fine                           
my health gets worse with time.

My soul is tired but I'm young                     
I guess I'm fine.

I will one day die,                                            
only to realize I was never fine.

I was never okay,                                            
It was all a lie.

I look at my graduation picture and your smile looks fake.

I've waited twenty three years for this date.

I know you love me, but why do I see hate?

My whole life all I asked for was sincerity.

The moment came, and you acted like you weren't happy.

I mean ****, you didn't even smile for me!

you were welcoming,
yet rejection clouded my action.

you were kind,
still fear was on my mind.

you wore a smile,
time never stayed a long while.

you left,
and I never formally introduced myself.

you were light shining so beautifully,
I watched from afar so pitifully.

Now you're gone,
and a friend in you I wished I'd known.
