I sit here and I remember,
I remember all the good times we had
Now a days I can’t help but to feel sad
Each and every memory
Tinged with guilt and sorrow
I wonder now if there will ever be a brighter tomorrow
I remember the day you told me
The day you gave me that horrible news
Saying that you might have to pay your dues
You tried to just blow it off,
Like it was no big deal
Acting as thought you would simply heal
You just wanted to forget and have fun
Not ever realizing how we all felt
Trying to understand the Fate you had been dealt
We wanted to talk about it,
To find out what was going on
But all you did was yawn
And went ba
We start out with a blank slate
Some we get through others, some we create
Each person has at least one
Some people have many when their life is done
Some eat at us bit by bit
Some are so hard to admit
Some are dangerous to ourselves and others
Some keep us bonded closer than brothers
Some are so hard to believe
Simply because we are so naïve
I think that you would agree
That by letting them go, it sets you free
As we go through life, they are collected
Almost all of them unexpected
One by one we keep them
One by one we try to condemn
Each and every single one of them
Unable to stop the source from which they stem
I on the other hand,
Ha
I need to tell you something,
Something you need to hear
Something you need to realize
You are stronger than you believe
You are even stronger than me
Both in mind and body
I need you for support,
Much more than you need me
I need you for comfort,
More than you need me to comfort you
I lean on you,
Much more than you lean on me
I wish I had your strength,
You emotional fortitude
You can weather any storm,
Continue on through the toughest challenges of life
I wish I had your will power,
Your drive
You can accomplish whatever you want,
Whatever you desire
You will need you strength,
Your will power
For I will not always be there,
For you or a
What does life owe me?
Nothing,
For I do not deserve to live
Never have I,
And I doubt I ever will
Each breath, each second of existence
I deserve none of it
Why should I?
What have I done to deserve this life?
Nothing.
I fight and I struggle just to live with myself
But I do not always win that battle,
No matter how hard I try
The demons I fight are not like any other
They attack from the outside
And the inside
These demons are all in my head,
But that does not make them any less dangerous
They know all my fears,
All my hopes,
All of my dreams
How can I possibly win?
How can I defeat them?
They are the darkest sides of me
They are who I cou
I want to make myself believe
That I’m worth something
That I’m not an accident,
That I’m here for a purpose, a reason
That when I die there will be
One person to shed a tear for me
I do not fear being judged,
But rather being misjudged
That when you hear me say
That I wish to believe
That I’m actually worth something
I want you to believe
That I do not want to die
But that I want to live
Trust
I would like to Trust
But I cannot
For how can one Trust,
When they have lived my life?
One that was full of hope and happiness,
Of joy and Trust
Yes, Trust was apart of my life
A long time ago
What happened?
How did it change?
I’ll tell you…
I Trusted many and in total completeness
So many knew everything about me
My hopes and dreams
To my wishes and fears
And then one so called friend turned
Then more and more followed
Backstabbing me and my entirety
I became broken,
I felt lost in this world
But then the friend who turned first was there,
Reaching out their hand
So I grabbed it, thinking everything had changed
But alas,
It’s getting harder and harder these days
To be near you,
Without being with you
Seeing you comes with such a rush
My heart beats faster, my pulse races
I want this to be so much more than just a crush
I want to be the one to hold you,
To kiss you,
To love you
Do I take your breath away when I look at you?
Does your heart skip a beat when I say your name?
Are you holding back, like I do?
Because the possibility that you could ever feel the same,
About me, is too much to handle
Nothing in my life could ever be this good
Do you ever think that we could be together?
Do you think we would even have a chance?
I am trying desperately not
Hey Mister High and Mighty
Yeah you,
Why don’t you come down from your perch
Up on that mountain that is your ego
Why don’t you get your head out of the clouds,
It has got to be cold up there
Obviously not cold enough to cool your temper
It has got to be lonely up on that peak
With you being the only one who is good enough
To be up on that mountaintop
Be careful when you come down
You might slip and fall
But do not be too lazy and slow
For I am anxious,
To show you how pathetic you really are
To take away your façade of how tough you are,
How good you are
To show your true colors to the world
As you climb down throwing taun
We are apart
We are not in sight of the other
We are separated by many miles
Based on my choice to leave for a higher education,
A higher purpose
To further my knowledge and begin a career
Sadly you did not come with
For you have yet to finish school
How I wish you were here
My heart, it bleeds for you
Drop by drop with every thought of you that comes to mind
Slowing down beat by beat
Slowly dying
For you are my heart
And the pain you feel is mine
And mine is yours
Two souls connected across the country
Still beating to the same drum
Its song coming to a diminuendo
Coming to a close,
To an end
Tears run down my face
The pain I feel is almost
Who is this girl?
What is her name?
What is she like?
How would you describe her?
This girl is my girlfriend
This girl’s name is Mary
She is like a dream;
Every moment with her is blissful and joyous
With her, every moment is phenomenal
Where nothing goes wrong
And both are happy to be alive
And like a dream, when it ends I want to go back to it,
I wish not to ever wake up because of this
It is impossible to describe her
But for this I shall try
Her hair is as soft as fleece
With its color rich and dark as the evening sun behind the horizon
Her body, no lie, is the perfect body
Despite her own belief
Her skin is as soft as down,
And as

Living in Paradise
High above the Earth
Among the stars
Among the planets
Defending those pearly gates,
Those streets of gold
The throne and kingdom of the Father
Majestic and Holy
I am
An Angel of the Lord
Shining in His brilliance
Pure, white as snow wings
Pale silver skin which radiates from within
A striking face
With blazing gold eyes
Fierce when angered
Yet serene when at peace
An ever watchful vigil is kept
For the fight against Angels and Demons rages on
Never ending
Never ceasing
Brutal and destructive is this ongoing strife
Yet no wretch from Hell has breached the gates
Nor set foot on the streets of gold
Always held off by the Ange
