Flicker of a Flame
Written on 12/24/03
A flicker of a flame
Coming from a candle
Is all i need to feel safe.
Light a candle
And i'll ever hold your peace
Protect you for eternity.
A flicker of a flame
Coming from a fire
Is all i need to feel loved.
Let wood burn
And our love will soar
As a candle flickers in the dark.
In the Dark
Written on 12/11/03
All i see is darkness
Stretching on forever
Never ending......
No lights are showing
I can't see at all
Just darkness
Must i see these visions
Of ever lasting dark
In my heart......
Is this what lifes about?
This lingering blackness
Like a stormy night at sea.
Dungeon
Written on 12/13/03
Way in the future
i can see it now
A dungeonfor my soul
Will stand all alone
My spirit it will contain
Trapping my heart
Blocking my mind
The chamber walls say
My scream wont be heard
It will be just a whisper
I can shoout for help
When my life is draining.
Hole In my heart.
Written on 12/12/03
Where did it come from?
When will it go?
Its clouding my mind,
With it's deathly vibes.
Why is it here
What does this mean?
It's killing me inside,
Suffocating my heart.
It's this hole in my heart,
That's clouding my mind,
Killing me inside,
But where did it come from?
And when will it go?
Be true
Written on roughly 1/12/04
Sing in the moon lit sky,
Dance in the starlit dreams
Of the night
So sing,
So dance,
May you be true.
Sleep in the silky thoughts,
Drink in the dry oceans,
Of the dawn,
So sleep,
So drink,
May you be true.
Be true to you,
Be true to me,
Live your life With peace and joy,
Be true.
Tired
Written on 6/3/04
My eyes are heavy,
My head is drooping,
All i want is my bed,
But i cannot sleep,
I cannot fall uponmy pillow,
For i am expecting you,
To appear on my door step,
To knock on my wooden door,
But you have not come,
I am waiting,
I want too hear a gentle tapping,
And when i do upon my feet i will be,
Welcoming you to my humble home,
But untli you do i shall sit and wait,
But if i sit here any longer......
My eyes will be heavier,
My head will have drooped even more,
I won't need my bed,
I will be asleep,
I will have fallen upon my pillow,
For i was expecting you,
To appear on my doorstep
To hear a knock upon my wooden door,
I was waiting,
I wanted to hear a gentle tapping,
If i did upon my feet i would have been,
Welcoming you to my humble home,
Now i lie fast asleep,
You kept me waiting for far too long....
Cupid wins for once
Written on 5/7/04
Theres no one worth fighting for,
I'm scared i'll always loose,
He may have walked on by,
And i wont even care,
I wont play a game of wits,
Just to win you over,
Why wont my love just come to me?
Or does he think i don't care?
The love i feel i so strong,
But i will be left out,
The devil wins again.
I want to have so much love,
My heart will explode,
But if he doesn't come to me,
It never will
I refuse to go and talk to him,
I wont know what to say,
The Devils wins again.
He walks on over here,
He says i look nice,
I give him my number,
We meet again next week,
Cupid wins for once....
You left me....
Written on 30th July
You covered my heart with a veil,
Blocked the light with a smoke screen,
Made me believe you were the 'one',
Built up static emotion,
I couldn't see,
You left me blind.
You covered my ears with cloth,
Blocked the noise with a heartbeat,
Told me you were the 'one',
Built up static emotion,
I couldn't hear them,
You left me deaf.
Why did i let you smother me,
With your affections,
Just so you could hurt me,
Leave me on the curb,
I was blind and deaf,
So you left me crying.
Time of Oppurtunity
11 Aug 04
This is the time
The time of opportunity
So take his hand
Ride away under the sun
Take the opportunity
When it comes.
This is the time
The time of opportunity
So wear the dress
That he bought for you
Take the opportunity
When it comes.
This is the time
The time of opportunity
So dance all night
Until he leads you away
Take the opportunity
When it comes.
Take the time
To take a chance
To make your life even better.
Take the time
To take a look
At what this world can offer
Take the time
To realise
All opportunities.
I cannot Stop
20 Aug 04
I cannot stop the wind from blowing,
knocking you over,
I cannot stop the lightning from striking,
from the rain-filled clouds,
I cannot stop the people from killing,
Animals who cannot say,
I cannot stop the humans from running,
from fears they posses,
I cannot stop the birds from singing,
when an egg hatches,
I cannot stop the lions from roaring,
to make some aware,
I cannot stop the grass from growing,
green, healthy and long,
I cannot stop the flowers from wilting,
and looking helpless,
I cannot stop the night from bringing,
the beauty it shows,
I cannot stop the rain from falling,
upon your very head,
I cannot stop the song from saying,
everyone is in love,
I cannot stop the world from dying,
no more room to live,
I cannot stop the girl from crying
for her loss today,
I cannot stop myself from thinking,
'i desire you,'
I cannot stop anything from anything,
without help from you.
Butterfly Garden
21 Aug 04
Deep in the Butterfly Garden,
The Lady Charmer works her magic,
Her dress trails behind her,
As she follows the trail even further.
She wants to be like them,
See the world through a butterfly's eyes,
They flutter around her crimson hair,
Reflecting her gemstone eyes.
They land on her finger,
And show her their delight,
Of living among elegance and joy,
The fragrance leads her further.
They touch her fairy wings,
Weaving under her arms,
She wants to fly away,
To heir care free world.
Her smile is growing,
She hears their wings beating,
She wanders further,
Taking an elaborate bait.
Leading to eternity.
Can't Say
25 Aug 04
Can't say that i love you,
But i can't stand to see you sad,
So for now,
I love you.
Can't say that i hate you,
But i can't stand to have you around,
So for now,
I hate you.
Can't say that i need you,
But you're always there when i cry,
So for now,
I need you.
Can't say that i scare you,
But you're so frightened when I'm there,
So for now,
I scare you.
Can't say that i have you,
But for once i wish i had,
You make me feel so happy inside,
So come to me now and say,
I love you,
I hate you,
I need you,
I scare you,
And you have me hooked.
My Sacrafice
24 Aug 04
The clouds look so inviting from here,
Pebbles falling creates the fear,
My hair is clasping my face,
The dress is stuck to my skin,
Walking to the edge,
The perfect way to end my pledge,
Ground crumbles at my feet,
Cutting the flesh again and again,
The drop is calling,
I shall be falling,
A feather in each hand,
Doves embedded in my soul,
Looking down at my future,
Never will i be fully mature.
This is my sacrifice.
My Life
31 Oct 04
Living on the outside,
always looking in,
And seeing how my childhood memories should look.
Suffering alone and in silence,
knowing there are friends who don't care,
And seeing how they walk on by not sensing my pain.
Gripped by their friendly tales,
wishing they were mine,
And seeing how they live life on this planet.
Having my dreams destroyed,
by my own doings,
And seeing how others make their dream come true.
Bruising my battered ego,
with my sharp knife,
And seeing how others' egos shine with purity.
Dressing to fit in with other souls
knowing no one notices,
And seeing how they wear their confidence with pride.
Hiding from reality,
fearing what it may contain,
And seeing how they grasp reality with both hands.
Gazing into my future,
knowing I'll spend it alone,
And seeing how others spend theirs draped in the arms of friends.
Wanting to have some company,
knowing no one will come,
And seeing how the shy always find friends.
Burning my tarnished soul,
In one single tea light,
And seeing how their souls dance around a flickering flame.
Fooling my heart i have someone,
knowing there really isn't,
And seeing how everyone else has their someone.
Singing a lullaby to myself,
yearning no one hears,
And seeing how others sleep so deep so quick.
Wishing my life was perfect,
hoping now it may be so,
And seeing how i react when i realise my life never will be perfect.
My childhood memories will haunt me forever,
never leaving me be,
Forcing me to see the bigger picture and telling me my dreams never come true
