The Broken Girl

What's a broken girl to do?
Losing her only hope,
To what's better than her.

Promises and swears,
Only to keep her to you.
She's broken but she stays.

Piece by piece,
She's breaking away.
Knowing the better is still near.

But it just took that moment,
A second of betrayal.
To completely break the broken girl.

Wonder

Never knowing what's up your sleeve.
Blushing red roses you plucked for me.
Spoken to land moths in our stomachs.
Forgot our love not.

Melodies sung in your room.
Flip the page to sugar sweetness.
Ghosts from your past appearing.
Thrown away the key to our moon.

Full of face up pennies and horse shoes.
Pockets full of posies added to the shine.
Tossed pebbles wove it into my heart.
All time wonder of the world.

You, Me, Us.

Been this way with so many before.
Yet this seems like the first time.
No need to worry what's on my mind.
It's you, just you, only you.

For once I do believe, in everything.
All words are out and said.
What is coming is better than before.
So you better come to me, just me, only me.

All I know is where I want to go.
We are still together, just taken apart.
No one is going to love you more than I do.
Nothing can stop us, just us, only us.

Child Dreamer

I've been thinking my life away.
What a waste of time.
Trying to show no fear.
Why oh why would I live this way?

Now just look at me.
Dancing in circles,
As if this was a new beginning.
A child dreamer once again.

You took me back to those days.
Where I hated to go to sleep.
Looks didn't make the world go round.
And I always loved myself.

The broken heart was left behind.
Another smile drops.
Eyes closed, wishes made.
Where I am is where I plan to stay.

Zero

It's taken all of my time,
To finally leave him behind.
Now I'm starting at zero.
Time has gone different ways.

The song of yesterday,
No longer the same.
This heart isn't singing.
Just moved on to dreaming.

Cried there for hours,
For you're gone away.
Knowing you'll regret this,
Because our lust was so dear.

Just seeing your face,
Left me not okay.
Only wasting away,
With tears of pain.

So I'm starting at zero,
Since we've both changed.
But now it's a matter of fact.
I'm better than all of that.

Harmony

Well baby, I wrote you this poem.
Hoping to show you how far I've come.
I can eat. I can sleep. I can do anything.
As long as I do it for you.

Well hunny, I wrote you this poem.
Because maybe you're also in love.
Something finally feels right.
And you are the one at fault.

Well dear, I wrote you this poem.
It's time things weren't wrong.
I and you are certainly living in harmony.
This world is more than what it seems.

The World

Through the depths of the sea.
And the heights of the mountains.
I'd fight through it all,
Just to be with you.

Searching through this empty world.
Only to find a pallid place.
But hope dies last.
Someday you will set me free.

I fight through the mountains and the sea.
But nothing will keep me from you.
Because this is not my world.
You are.

Alone

People hurt.
People cry.
People kill.
People die.

But when it's me,
It hurts a ton.
But when it's her,
It seems like none.

People keep moving.
People get along.
People fight back.
People are strong.

But when I love,
It goes to waste.
But when I lose trust,
It's never replaced.

You, her, him, people.
They are all their own.
Yet I'm a person too.
Just one who is alone.

My Cries

No way in telling where I'm going.
Just have to get out of here.
This life I'm serving is only hurting.
The hardest part is just simply breathing.

I wish you heard my cries,
While I fill my mind with lies.
Telling myself you really care.
But then again you aren't here.

You could have saved my life.
If you heard those cries,
And still be by my side.
But instead I have to die.

If I must go then can I leave happy?
Let me waste away in your arms.
Your chance to say "goodbye",
And finally hear my cry while I die.

Our Song

We take a little walk,
Down good old memory lane.
While holding hands,
And feeling no pain.

So good it feels back home.
Living the life we used to know.
Sometimes we wish it was this good,
But life is never how it seems.

So we take a step back,
And we sing our song once again.
La la la la la la.
La la la la la la.

The same old song we would sing,
Brings back years of memories.
To this day we continue to sing,
To take us back to who we used to be.

So take my hand like before,
And we'll sing our song once more.
La la la la la la.
La la la la la la.

Love of My Life

Some things you say change my life.
Those simple words make me fly.
All I need is an "I love you",
To assure you are my man.

So think of me tonight,
When we can't sleep.
Too many thoughts on our minds.
Is this who I might actually love?

Sudden risks I want to take.
Just to know your name.
If only you knew,
You are the love of my life.

Time to Leave

When you try so hard just to shine.
When you waste it all to get in the light.
When you lose it only for him to see,
Just how he's killing your inner being.
That's when it's time to leave.

Sometimes you need to give up.
Sometimes you need to never love.
Sometimes he needs to understand,
Just how much you care for him.
That's when it's time to leave.

Looking for that star you wished upon.
Looking for hope to keep moving on.
Looking for that love we both knew.
Just that one love that seemed true.
Now it's time to leave.

Nothing Left

These tears don't even know,
Why they keep falling.
It's all become a blur,
Of the past, present, and future.

Everyone knows.
You're the only one for me.
I can't make it alone.
Don't leave me tonight.

I sit here alone waiting,
Hoping to forget my loneliness.
My heart is torn from you.
There's nothing left to do.
