I love the nights
all the worries of life
go through the day
but inner the nights,
life's very peace
when we all go at ease
somewhere stress free
a world different from where we find ourselves
There was a time when I was trapped by fears
No day went by I didn't shed tears
Haunted by these worries, counting every scar and ache
It seemed every moment I could feel my heart break
My love, you are my world;
You fill me with imagination, inspiration, new creations;
You open my eyes to see what can be.
You are my life;
My heart beats for you, I breathe for you;
You are my heart;
Pressed with 1000s of thoughts
Thought tilting me down
What about tomorrow
Those voices kept singing
The present alarming the future
The colourful butterfly kept fly
When would I grab one?
It is my safe haven.
The place in which my soul retreats
To relax
To recharge
To think.
It allows me to ponder
And wonder
It starts with a single one
but then comes the tornado.
And before I know it,
I'm suffocated by my thoughts.
There are snowballs in my head
that grow bigger every second
and trample me
there are snowballs in my head.
I’m having trouble handing you my heart
It’s not your fault
They say, “Dive in, vulnerability is beautiful”
But it’s not worth the sobbing and seemingly endless aching
Little Worries
“Do what’s right and never lie.” I say
“Why, when he’s big and mean?” She ask.
“Little voices can do big things.” I say
“Little voices get hurt too,” she says.
I was walking
My feet nearly floated with each step
The sun cloaked my body in sunlight like linen
Yet I was worried
My anxiety gripped me like a chokehold
Changes are going on
And it is a little hard to deal
When things aren't what they were.
You don't know how to feel.
College is right around the corner
And you're the first one to attend
You are not the kind of girl who goes out to parties so late at night, sure tonight was a different night and you wanted to live a little bit, but you are not this girl and you know it.
Let me grip tightly to this life in this moment
With everything standing still while time is stolen
Friends and I moving on.Two are going into the militaryOne isn't good with structure.One structures everything.
Uncertainty that runs through our blood.
Future out of our mortal hands.
How shall my life go?
Thoughts swallow me whole
All alone no words to share with others who care
I can not escape the pounding from within
Questions scream for answers that never come
She stands there quietly
Trying to fight down the fear
She’s next in line, next to audition
Hoping she makes it to the end
She’s biting her lip, worried she’ll forget
A single word or a whole line
Tick, tick tockthe bell rings, startling meStep, step, tapmy shoes moving swiftly through the hallwaysNotebooks, pencils, paperOn every students desk
There can not be a life better than ours.
full off happiness and joy. This life that we live without the worries
that most kids outside the world we know live.
Worries, fears, and doubts consume
Hovering and sinking in
My breath is short
The hurt is long
Do I bury the beasts?
Or keep on running away?
After the winds have settled
amidst the stress and tension,
there you find your true peace.
The storm will pound down, pulling at all you have.
But, through the sheets of rain
Coming to an end
No drama to be found
Solely disappointment
What could be and what was
Nothing but a large fuzz
A cloud, a wall, a veil
Sad, but true
Not one thing to misconstrue
The sky is clear, but in this cage it is hard to notice. This cage that constricts me from seeing beyond the bars is unbearable, and I am unable to set myself free.
Behind this smile lies something underneath, that the naked eye cannot see.
I'm filled with insecurities and worries.
But in time I'll overcome them, just like the protagonist in one of those made up stories.
