Truly

They say love is blind
I find that's a lie
The truth is love
has very clear sight
Real love sees a heart
the way it truly is
The beauty of love is
love sees all, and forgives

Untitled

Laughter, life, love, and pain
Unexpected, a little strange
Song on her lips, dreams in her eyes
Also nightmares that make her cry
A little broken, not quite whole
But at heart a happy soul
A little shattered, but on the mend
Hard to love, but worth it in the end

Broken Toy

Sometimes I feel like a broken toy
Just scared of being thrown away
Wipe my tears, fix my makeup
Do my best to hide the pain
Don't ask for help, cover it up
I won't let anybody see
The way the things they say and do
Really mess with me
I can hear you, I can see you
Looking down on me, my friend
But you don't know how much it hurts
So you do it yet again
The nicks and cuts are adding up
And they're killing me
But I hold my head up, laugh and smile
And noone sees me bleed

Revolutionary


 

 

Revolutionary

 

A single voice

Speaking to the world

Comes from the lips

Of a young girl

She speaks the truth

Her heart and mind

A revolution

Starts tonight

Her voice rises

Above the crowd

It shakes the earth

Though it’s not loud

Refusal to

Accept the wrong

The time is ripe

It won’t be long

The world must change

That they all know

She’ll lead the way

And they’ll follow

Small but strong

Now the world will see

One young girl

Leads an army

Elements of Love


 

Elements of Love

 

Love is like water

It seeps through the cracks

Mightier than the ocean

You cannot keep it back

Love is unstoppable

Stronger than the tides
 
Love may bring you pain
 
But it also gives you life




 

Love is like fire

Consuming the soul

Turning your will to ashes

Stealing your control

Passion is frightening

Ecstasy and pain

Those love has touched

Are never the same

 

Love is like a hurricane

Tearing you apart

Scattering your thoughts

Capturing your heart

And when the air you breathe

Becomes the tears you cry

Remember who you are

Keep your heart alive

 

Love is like the earth

Holding you inside

Too late for you to think about

What is wrong or right

Dormant for a time

But it will never die

The reasons are secret

No one can know why

Life


Life sucks

But it’s all we have

And you can do better

Than not that bad

The world is crazy

But it’s where we live

You’ll be fine if you take

Less than you give

It takes all kinds

To make it go

You shouldn’t judge

Unless you know

You won’t

Always understand

Change what you must

Accept what you can’t

Society

The lonely get left alone
Because broken hearts are too hard to mend
The irony is they're the ones
Who are most in need of a friend
We say that life isn't fair
To excuse the fact that we're being cruel
We destroy wisdom and beauty
In an effort to impress self-important fools
We emulate those who take
We scorn those who give
In our fight for success
We forget how to live
We abandon love and laughter
We embrace anger, hate, and greed
We chase things that destroy us
And lose the things we truly need
