I think everyone's waiting
for that special person
that we're all anticipating

For someone to hold our hand
to be our shelter
to brush off the dust and sand

For someone to open our eyes
to kiss our lips
and never says goodbyes

For someone gentle and sweet
who loves us for who we are
someone we wouldn't regret to meet

For someone like a close friend
who will laugh with us
and our pains try to mend

For someone who's willing to stay
who wants us
rather then going away

For someone to come along
make our living worth it
make us feel like we belong

For someone to make us whole
to make us smile
our other half of our soul

Som

thank you

It was so dark
there was no light
but you were there
so everything was alright

I thought i was alone
I thought no one cared
Just me and my bone
Until you appeared

I never realized it
i should've from the start
i didn't want to commit
that you were already in my heart

I should've held your hand
and smiled for just you
i meant to take you to my neverland
i meant to be honest and true

But somehow i got lost
i was confused and forgot who i was
and our paths no longer crossed
but you never let go, no matter the cost

You were so strong
and i so weak
how we used to get along
now is so humble and meek

I hope you forgive me

Slumdog

I don't know when
I don't know how
It just happened
. . . somehow

I thought I was alright
I thought I was ok
Thought I could last
One more day

I didn't mean to cry
I didn't mean to break
There is only so much
I can take

I'm sorry I am
Such a failure to you
I try so hard
To be perfect like you

I don't get good grades
I struggle and I burn
There is more to life
Then school to learn

I'm a mistake, a disappointment
I have 'my head in the fog'
Sometimes you just can't expect much
From a slumdog

Just ListenWhen I talk to you
Don't talk back
Please don't give me advice
Don't tell me I'm on the right track

When I talk to you
I want you to hold me tight
Let me know you're there
And that everything's alright

When I talk to you
I want to look you in the eye
Let me know that you understand
Tell me that it's ok to cry

Just listen to me
Don't say a word
Show me you're there
I need to be heard

Liars

You say your trying;
But the thought has never even crossed your mind, has it?
You say your getting better;
As you take another dose,
You say you've been sober;
But the empty bottles are in your bag,
You say your family has healed;
As you wrap your arms with tape,
You say you've been doing well;
But you've never been this thin,
You say your going to make it to college;
As your report card comes in red,
You say the addiction is gone;
But the joint butts still plague the school grounds,
You say your finally happy;
As you swig 5 more pills,
You say you don't care;
But we hear you crying whenever your alone,
You say your fine;

My Last Day

I should've woken up earlier
I should've aced that pop quiz
I should've been more careful
Not to get hit by that guy
And not have my bangs burned
I should've fixed my bike sooner
If only I knew this would happen
Today.....
Today was supposed to be a good day.

I didn't realize I guess.
The brakes on my bike were broken
And the train couldn't stop
The hill after school street was just a little
Too steep
For me.
Today....
Today was supposed to be a good day.

I should've lived while living was still
An option
I should've loved while love was still
Existent
I should've thanked and apologized while it still
Mattered and was ap

Falling

My lungs feel heavy
there is a cold empty hole
where my heart should be
an aching loneliness in my soul

My lips are dry
all those words escape me
enough to barely get by
but no one will ever see

The breeze catches my hair
frozen hands hold me erect
my thoughts inside begin to tear
I’m vulnerable; nothing worth to protect

I feel the edge with my feet
so far down down down
dotted figures in a snowy sheet
listen to them live without a sound

My eyes are glassy and cold
shedding frozen tears
toward the chaotic busy road
one by one; all of my fears

My shoulders begin to shake
but not from the cold
I’m scared I won’t be abl

Smile

Smile ,

because you deserve to .

because no one can take that from you .

because no darkness can touch you when your eyes sparkle like that .

Smile ,

because you want to .

because that's when you look prettiest .

because that's when we all see 'you' for the first time .

Smile ,

because you help make the world a happier place when you do .

because that's when I fall more in love with you ...

but most because ,

your worth it .

One Day

One day ...
We'll find ourselves .
We'll smile , and mean it .
We'll throw away all those issues .
We'll finally 'fit' .

One day ...
We'll be happy .
We'll forget our pain .
We'll find we really do have worth .
We'll find our place .

One day ...
We'll find our strength .
We'll be whole again .
We'll finally find our place .
We'll finally laugh again .

One day ...
We'll see our hearts have healed .
We'll find joy there .
We'll have started over .
We'll finally ....be

... One day .

Mirror

A mirror hangs on my wall,
Everyday wishing it was never there at all,
Who is in that reflection, looking at me?
Why is it not myself, that I see?

Covering my eyes, I begin to hate that face,
Wanting nothing more but to leave this place,
Why do I lash out in such aggression?
Why does something always steal my attention?

My eyes are dull; they are no longer bright,
My face is gray; no longer smooth and light,
This wretched mirror that hangs on my wall,
Everyday wishing it was never there at all,

I can't seem to stop it; though I have never tried,
As I roll further down, this deceiving ride,
I wish I could stop, this great a

If Only

Hold my hand and don't let go
Silently move back my hair
So I can feel the warmth your eyes show

Embrace me with love I've never felt
Kiss my forehead, cheeks, and nose
Touch my heart and make it melt

Stand by me loyally at day
Hold me close at night
"I'm here" I want to hear you say

Fight off all of my worst fears
Help me when I need it
Brush off all of my constant tears

Listen to me without saying a word
Show me compassion I never knew
Make me feel understood and heard

If you do these few things for me
Even if it's just once...
For the rest of my life I'll be happy

For never in my life have I met someone like you
And neve

Understand me.

i heard your words
i heard your cries
i understood
i knew what pain you felt
i felt your tears
i heard your screams
i see you crumbling
before my eyes
i see it all
i know it all
i understand it all
but i am hopeless...
i rush to hold you
but there is a glass wall
i yell your name
but you don’t hear me
i try to write words...
but they mean nothing
i am so sorry...
i want to hold you
to dry your tears
to be your home
but you see....
i can’t touch you
i can’t talk to you
i can’t see your face
with my two eyes
the only thing i have
that little string which holds me to you
is these...
these...
little words
and i know...

My Dream

_{I have a dream;
Today, I am giving it to you.
I have an embrace;
Only for you.
I have a passion;
Today, I am giving it to you.
I have a place in my eyes;
Only for you.
I have a heart;
Today, I am giving it to you.
I give you my all;
Today onward, I'll never leave you.}

_{i wrote this......a looooooooooong time ago. i cleaned my desk.

.....

i'll let that sink in a minute. im not psychotic or losing my mind...my umma asked me to clean my room and i discovered some never-before-by-man stuff so i decided to do my desk to.

i was quite the poetic 9 year old wasn't i? LOL~ i forgot who i wrote this for too. *shrug* someone special to me apparently...but there was no date, i only signed my name at the bottom and it was stashed under a bunch of old paintings. i found a TON of art holy crap~ and i found all those mangas i had started!! with YOU GUYS too...even some of those stories we wrote back and forth whoa~ that was SO LONG ago yet feels like yesterday for me XD

this reminds me of Pieces. and Pieces made me cry}
