The Little Girl

I will cry for the little boy

Who can't be seen

I will cry for the little boy 

He's just like me

I pray at night just hoping one day

He'll see me like I see him

One glorious day

I want to love and be loved

To hold and be held

I want to cry with the little boy

I'm a little girl

A little girl who's lost her way

A little girl who can't get it right

A little girl who's ready to take flight

She had a home

All she feels is empty inside

Maybe she needs someone by her side

To soften her heart made of stone

It was once glass, shiny, fragile and iridescent 

Now the little girl plays games

Because that's all she knows

That's all she's ever left with

Issues

I'm hard to understand

You'll never see me naked

He's hard to trust

But I always faked it

I wanna love him

I wanna trust him

I wanna tell him everything

But he's just as messed up as I am

A realist

And I can't keep my knife to myself

Illicit

My Hand

Grab my hand

I won't let you go

Run with me

The way the moon goes

You be the maker

And I'll be the muse

Filling the world with wonder

I love what we do

Just Like You

I cried all I could when we were together
But I have no more tears left now that
I miss you more than ever
I erased every part of you from my life
But my heart still says hold on tight

I'll always have hope
You liked that about me
I gave you reason
I helped you see

Maybe we'll meet again
When we're supposed to
A chance to start over
To get to know the real you

Because you knew every little thing about me. I knew nothing about your life other than the obvious. The less I knew the more perfect you were, I made you a person who you could never be. We both knew you'd never amount to anything so we just pretended. Well, more like I pretended. You had zero hope in the world.

Zero hope in yourself

That's where I came in though, you really did like that about me. I was naive, innocent, pretty and always optimistic
We were opposites, and just as so, we did attract. But it's done now so maybe we will wait till we meet again. But now I have zero hope in the world.

Zero hope in you

I'm just like you now.

If

Monotone eyes, sublime lies

I heard you talking

What if she cries?

Drink the beer, rock in that chair

Stare me down

What if she cries?

You're crying.

Think Of Me

You gave back a diamond for a life without dreaming...

You said you've loved me once

It was the richest moment in our lives

Clear as day, dark as night

I was your pearl, you were my light

A beast can love a queen

When it's the right amount of romance

The romance can turn to ashes when it's the right amount of distance

I picked up smoking, just so you know

Maybe you'll scold me, shake me senseless and never let me go

I still think of you

Maybe you've changed

Maybe once again we can be lovers and forget who's to blame

Think of me

In your wildest dreams

Think of me

For a moment of bliss

Think of me and remember

Our last kiss

Jupiter

Emptiness nothingness I can't think at all

My minds stuck on Jupiter

0mph through the fog

You used to hold me and say everything will be okay

I never wanted to say goodbye

But now you're gone fading away

Call my name now and I'm yours

Stupid crazy and in love

You're worth ruining myself for

Following Suit

It's dark but there is a light

Return to the beginning

Where there was nothing but velvet drapes and glitter

We were winning

Two diamonds cutting at life

But now it's whether, I go my way or follow suit

With you

We're diamonds in the dark

But there is a light

That Guy

Tell me I can because you believe in me

Say that you care and give me the feeling of bein free

Do your part

Cuz you're that guy

Roses are nice but that's not what I want

Mind body and soul, someone to flaunt

I want a guy to tell stupid shit to

Debate with about what the world is going through

Beat me in Mario Kart

Do your part

Cuz you're that guy

Text me at night cuz you can't sleep

Say what you feel even when it's hard to be what I need

Do your part

Cuz you're that guy

That guy that gives me back my glow

Low and behold the beauty of a woman loved

That guy that fights to keep me in his arms

And still lets me go from time to time

That guy, that guy, that bullshit guy

He'll never be what I need

Cuz that guy is me

I am my own

Forever

Five minutes past forever
Late night Tuesday
Are you coming with me?
Five minutes past forever

Take my hand, listen to the heavy techno beats
walking through the fog
Out of breath
But we're calm
Five minutes past forever
Are you coming with me?

Mind's racing, I'm everything I wanna be
The chorus sings behind me
"Go 'head" in A major key
Five minutes past forever
Are you coming with me?

I need a friend
Invisibility is my pretty side
All I can do is ask you
Five minutes past forever
Are you coming with me?

Five minutes past forever
I'm here.

United?

We all want joy
We all want peace
So why are we at each other's throats worrying about his needs?
What land is this that we can't see past the color of his skin
The money or lack there of
The way they speak
Or what country she's from?

We all have feelings
We all want love
We all have families
So why are we destroying his?

We are in guerrilla warfare
Ruthlessly bombing land that isn't ours
People are kissing their loved ones away as they fight to live in their last hours
There's too much pain and hate...guilt
Honor that needs to be won by killing
When true integrity starts with forgiving
We've forgotten what it's like to be united, to live the American Dream
Honestly, why can't we mend and let go?
It's not in our nature to be so heartless and mean

I want to say I'm American and proud
But living in this decade that phrase doesn't seem so sound

My Peace

The touch of your hot rugged hands on my shoulders
Making me feel safe and warm this cold winter night
Everything's right
I'm alright

You let the sharp harsh cool whip of wind from my mouth be easy like honey
Stroking my soft curly hair
I can stay wrapped up in your arms
You're my peace
My shooting star at dawn

Stoned Heart

Black glass
Frozen, hidden from you
My heart is fragile
It's sensitive to you
Seems hard and tough
But with one touch
It shatters to dust
Don't play with my crystal
Don't break my stone
My heart of glass
I've chosen to be alone

Mosaics

Mosaics are colors
Mosaics are different pieces making one united image
Mosaics are harmonies collected to form a glorious symphony

Be my mosaic
Be my jewel
My mosaic is you

If we all were the same, we wouldn't see the colors
If we all were the same, my mosaic would be none other than blank sheets of stone on the wall
Sharp, Hard, Tethered, Unnoticed
Contained, not being able to show light and reflect our colors
Break the sheet
Shatter the glass
Make this world mosaic
Make this world colored
Make this world changed and different
Make this world you

Be my mosaic
Be my jewel
My mosaic is you

Hopeless Relationship

Maturity knows no fun
Immaturity knows not to be loyal
Forgetting is bliss, but in my memory you're coiled
We laughed, we tried to stay together
But you were the douche
Who always thought never
Selfish and insensitive showing no remorse
But you did care, that's why I had hope

You were mature
I wasn't ever
You were loyal to the thought of never

Two Sides

Some beer, good times and a rose
That's all I wanted I suppose
Kisses? Sure. Laughs? You betcha
Hugs were a definite...
We could've been infinite...

But you fucked up
Like you always do
You never could get it right
You never could just be yourself
Let your shoulders drop
Take your bra off and let them fall the way they may

Uptight

Your back, your knees, your knuckles your head your hips your shoulders.....just....let...them fall
You just wanted to analyze and realize
You never wanted to live in the bliss

Take a moment and live
Sure it was nice but you never thought twice
The way you lived so carefree
It worried me
That you would regret and never forget
And I was right
I'm always right
But living the way you do is nice

Lost Passions

We saw each other everyday,

They listened to my mind,

They took me away

Bliss, bliss, bliss

A warm radiation traveled through me

From the tips of my fingers

To the tops of my shoulders...

My mind running wild

They showed me what I could be

They let me take them and make them me

I created what I loved,

I created what I didn't have.

Lost passions for a gift

I lost sight of what it meant to be

It got harder to see them everyday

I tried to listen

But their voices f a d e d    a   w    a     y

The world grew bitter to me

The people I shared them with

Couldn't catch the                     beat

I was my own rhythm

...but even I lost my                  beat

Lost passions for speaking my mind!

Lost passions for writing truth!

Lost passions for creation!

Lost passions for reaction...

I write words

They showed me what I could be

They let me take them and make them me

Scary Movies and The Dark

Life's a scary movie
I want you by my side
When I close my eyes
I can't sleep at night
The dark fills the emptiness
There's nobody there
I want to trust someone
But I'm too scared
I scream and
No one can hear me
I shout for joy and
Everyone sees me
Hold my hand through it all
Tell me that there's
No need to cry
And with us facing this thriller
We'll be all we need to get by

Rhythm Tracks

You feel it fly past you
100mph
You're not allowed to keep your body still
The rush of heat, noises compared
Drive you to bliss
You're high off air

But that strong feeling
Only lasts a little while
But you're addicted
So you go one more mile

Instantaneous

When your heart has reached that point
It's found its match, rejoice
No greater love can come from another
When push comes to shove
It won't want any other

They will be one in the same
They will know it from the start
That you belong together
Never apart
