Blind Crush

Don't talk to strangers says my 
mother
If I listened we would of never 
met each other
Company was all I was looking 
for
I never intended to want 
nothing more
Your letters always made me 
smile
So I thought I'd write you for 
awhile
I started to get attached a bit
Then somewhere along the way 
a spark lit
It wasn't suppose to be this way
I never wanted to feel this way
But now its too late
It juss maybe fate
I don't know what I did to 
deserve you
But I'm glad I got to know you
You just came into my world
Your presence has made it twirl
You've brought a side of me 
that was hiding
Thought of you have got me 
writing
The feelings that were 
untouched for years
All the lonely nights with my 
tears
You've sparked with your 
soothing words
Now my life is surrounded by 
your words
I find myself smiling throughout 
the day
When people stare I don't know 
what to say
I wait for the day I get to see 
you
How much longer I wish I knew
The amount of time you've 
known someone doesn't matter 
to fall for someone
I don't care how you look or 
what you do
I just hope one day you'll be my 
boo

You Create a World All Alone

So many days have gone by 
I wish I had wings to fly
I would of never done wrong
If I knew I would be here for so long
My life is within these four walls
Oh how my life has taken such a fall
It still shocks me to think I'm still here
I still have to wipe away my tears
One by one I count the long days
Higher it gets the days I've been away
I never seem to know
The day I will get to go
So I created a world of my own
With so many people I've never known
So many come and go
Its sad to see them go
Some say they'll keep in touch
But it doesn't mean that much
Cause many who leave this place
Run far from here like its a race
When they're finally out they start to forget
The ones in green so many of them they met
No matter how many friends in here you make
Whether they are true to you or fake
Always keep in mind
This one little line
You come alone 
You leave alone

In This Battle To Find a True Man

You said you'd always be there
And never let my heart tear
My past made me think the 
worst
It was hard to trust you at first
I kept barriers with the way I 
felt
But your words made me melt
You proved you'd never make 
me cry
So I thought I'd give you a try
Your presence brought me joy
You made me believe I was no 
toy
Things started to go well
You were the one I could tell
Just as I started giving you my 
heart
Things began to fall apart
All the promises made you 
started to break
I finally knew you were so fake
You mesmerized me with your 
charm
And acted like you were no 
harm
But all you ever wanted was a 
pass time
You treated me cheaper than a 
dime
It was a joke to you all along
You didn't care how much you 
did wrong
Now I'm left to think how blind I 
became
I was so stupid to fall for your 
game
You must be so proud to be you 
I bet I'm just one of the few
Your game will make you go 
mad
When karma gets you so bad
Yours actions have made me 
stronger
Now I'm ready to fight harder
I won't be a fool no more
Its like being in a war
In this battle to find a true man

Her Past Formed Her Life

As a girl she always wanted to be loved
But no one ever showed her what it meant to be loved
She tried to be joyful and make others happy
But nothing ever changed her life was still crappy
One day she met someone that started admiring her
He started to show what love meant to her 
It was pleasant at first fun and gifts
Then something happened she felt like jumping off a cliff
He started doing things that didn't seem right
Every time she tried to stop she lost the fight
She thought she caused it she really didn't know
She didn't get why this man would act so low
She felt very guilty hid it in her heart deep
She forgot how to sleep all she did was weep
As her sadness grew the man finally started to see
He decided to leave and she was finally free
She started living her way started to forget the pain
But as she moved forward it was in her heart as stain
While she grew older she started going the wrong ways
Men did whatever in bed while she just lays
They came and went but never wanted her as a wife
Drugs boos and men became the definition of her life
Depressed she knew her life was going down the drain
Behind the doors she cried hard like rain
She envied the happy girls never would she have that luck
This was her life always she would be stuck
Her life turned upside down things started to go well
She met her first love she was finally out of hell
He was there all along she just didn't know
He finally revealed himself when he started to glow
I think you may know him
But may not have seen him
His name is.... God
