Scenes

You see the smile on my face And not behind the scenes The turmoil deep inside Appearance not what it seems The memories that once filled with joy Now fill with something else Torn and broken, these poisonous things Are now what I’ve been dealt Every day it seems worse Whatever mended ripped apart There’s no denying who caused this […]

Untitled

What goes on behind closed doors And just cause you don’t see Doesn’t mean that I’m not hurt I’m crying constantly I’m only acting strong because I must Or else I would break down I have to put on this brave front Otherwise I would drown Don’t pretend you understand You’ve no idea what I’m going through It wasn’t just […]

Mask

Smiling is just a façade You don’t know what it’s like in my mind You see what I want you to believe And not the pain inside  It wasn’t something that came easily A better answer I searched for weeks But I couldn’t change how I felt Making everyone happy was out of reach You may not think I’m suffering […]

Heroes

Everyday heroes They fight for what we stand Protect our freedom valiantly Bravery at hand No one knows what they go through The things that they endure Only those by their side Will know for sure They volunteer for our country Not knowing what they’ll do To face such harsh reality And hopefully live through All will try for victory […]

Path

 I’ve struggled all my life with one thing or another never knew what to do but always wished that I was stronger I’ve been from place to place in search of something missing tried to fill the void with different things but was always left with wishing You knocked and knocked repeatedly You tried to get my attention but I […]

Wither

I wish these things that I feel would simply go away that I could control from within to purge the ones that stay Thoughts of dreams that I once had that brought me so much joy now turn black – are withering the dreams nearly destroyed Yet shake these feelings I cannot they’re constantly reminding me that all I had […]

Ash

Heart on fire set ablaze nothing but ash and forever changed Now hardened my heart destroyed nothing but anger and an endless void Soul is dying life moved on the girl you knew forever gone The heart you loved set ablaze all but ash and forever changed

Control

Boiling inside me This anger too much to take My grip slowly slipping Soon it will escape If you are around me Do not make a stance For once I lose hold You won’t stand a chance Veins inside me molten Lava from me will flood Soon I will erupt And be soaking in your blood You criticize, degrade me […]

Blackened Heart

Beware my blackened heart refrain to intertwine for once you succumb to it you’ll be forever mine Beware my blackened heart unless pain is what you seek for you’ll be wrapped in tragedy faced with eternal grief Beware my blackened heart you should know it’s for the best but if you choose this rotten thing it’ll be your last request […]

Home

I dream a dream it’s sweetest A place with light and love Where sky’s shimmer crystal blue Guarding from above This place I wish to go to Serene with golden streets For once I enter I’ll forever stay In His arms me he’ll always keep Greeted with open arms People I thought were gone But they were only waiting here […]
