Happy, and joyful kids.
Making great memories.
Days become darker
Oldest kid takes care of younger siblings
Mother comes home late every night with a new man
Noone to call Dad. Or Mom...
It was about this time of year
Our hearts crossed paths
They danced to a beautiful tune
Love at first sight we'd say
As both our hearts grew closer
They became intwined as one
From the outside looking in, everything was alright
Mommy was happy, Daddy held her tight
Everyone worked hard, everyone did smile,
We were all happy, at least for this little while.
Close your eyes,
Close your eyes and breathe.
This can’t be me,
This isn’t happening to me.
But it is.
And you can’t help it,
But what did you do?
Why you?
The weight is over bearing,
At some point in your life you think, who am I? Why am I here? Who have I become?
You start to realize how miserable you are.
You start to feel alone and empty inside.
Will it get better?
You think.
And in the end that was all she could hear;The sound of his breathing as he made his assault.She screamed, but it was if no one was near.How could this have been her own fault?
Outside
It seems as if she’s fine
Beautifully beautiful in every way shape and form
Her smile lights up the world as if god turned on the heavens
Well at least when she shows it
Reality isnt real to everyone.
Debt, depression, destruction, death.
This is reality.
Hunger, pain, suffering, lose.
Reality is hard to swallow.
Not enough money.
Not enough love.
He doesn't have too many friends
Then again, it's a small school
None of us have too many friends
But he doesn't have too many friends
And he's walking down the hall
And someone yells out
"Hey! Look!
As I grew up I never had anyone to turn to.
Sure I had friends,
But they didn’t understand.
The anger.
The pain.
The feeling of being so unwanted.
I knew people loved me.
I knew people cared.
Another day, once again
I have lost another man
Someone I thought was oh so true
Found out he had another love or two
How dare him!? How could he waste our years?
You saw me lying on the floor,
Desperate to fix my broken heart.
I was the un-fixable case, the tragic downfall.
But you didn't see me as broken, you saw me as beautiful.
"Look at the obvious, only feel for the "natural", God told me.
"Don't smell the pink flowers, only the blue", the media said.
"Pull yourself to the inside and push from the out", school taught me.
Life is too short,
grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.
Life is too short,
laugh when you can, it's a bonus.
Life is too short,
apologize, enhance, while you still have the chance.
Life is too short,
I am that boy who is kind, sweet, silly and all
I always carried a smile that stretches my lips about a mile
walking near my folks
telling jokes
tall in height
always a delight seeing me on the spotlight
Every day we are awakened by the alarming clock.
Every moment should be great.
Don't misuse love, because others don't get the love.
Caring about yourself is hard to do.
Especially if you're used to caring for someone else too.
There's going to come a time when you just need to worry about yourself.
Even if other people cry for help.
I am tired
Of lies.
Tired
Of my disguise.
I’m tired.
I want to be free again;
Free from the heart.
I want to be me again;
Free from insanity of humanity.
I just want to be free.
Angry tears
Arched across my zygoma
Flowing with rage...It’s colorful
I can't think... my mind eclipse by sublte animosity
Through holes I've imprinted with malice
Lack of beauty, abundance of lust,
risky relationships she cannot trust.
Runs from herself to hide from her spouse,
looks mighty in theory, in reality mouse.
Attempts to be home when in her own house,
L-O-V-E
Is a four letter word
love shouldn't be taken for granted
But mean so much to someone that means so much to you
Don't let love slip away
Hold it forever in your heart
Cherish each day
