The Butterfly Effect

I'm sitting here staring at a white wall, i can still see my baby's face,
kissing me and saying i love you mom, and out of his mouth comes........
 
a swarm of butterflies and he fades away, they are black and orange with huge eyes on the wings, in these eyes i see a sillohette  of a little girl , sitting on the steps,
praying that dad doesn't get upset, having might have to face the consequence.

Behind her sets a house of pain, all the anger has ignited a raging flame, as the house burns there she still sits, counting the ashes that fall as all the wishes missed, as the fire crackles, she can still hear every word,as the heat gets stronger it just feels like another hit occurred. 

In her hand she has a stick, she draws a butterfly,she closes her eyes and boards it.
She flies away leaving her family behind, she has no pain as she hears her mom's cries,it's only fair to feel that way, after all if her mom loved her she wouldn't have stayed.

Dark Minded

My mind is filled with dark things, 
I see things that should never be seen.


Faces that follow me, every time i close or open 
my eyes they are staring back at me.

Places  that you only hear about in the darkest passages,
places that should be left untold or not talked about.

I think i hear voices talking to me, they tell me to do things that 
i don't want to do, they say a lot of mean stuff to obscene and 
horribly unjust. 

My mind tells me that someone or somethings always there, watching over my shoulder with a cold stare.

I have these fears about everything, anything you can think about my mind has seen.

Why do i keep having these awful thoughts,maybe it's one of my past lives 
that i lost.

Timothy

When i look at you, i see beautiful.
 
Each day with you is like the morning dew, the drop that sets glistening on
the leaf, refreshing and brand new.

Your voice is like a symphony, playing hypnotizing notes and i'm lost in the 
sound, enclosed.
  
Your smile is as bright as the sun, rising over the mountain top
and shining into my valley, awaking all that is young.

Eyes that have seen many things, the portal to your soul, i see in them.

A heart that pumps love through your body, i hear it beat when i breath,
as our hearts are one.

Hands that are as smooth as the waves that carry me out to sea, 
lost in your embrace, i'll always be.

I love you more than i could ever explain, and the best thing ever 
is i know you feel the same.

Shhh,

Why must we have a debate, a spat over 
something irate.

Feeling of aggression taking over me, feeling like
i'm swimming in a sea of evil amenities. 

Why can't i be the bigger person and walk away, before 
either one of us doesn't return another day.

Now i'm alone with no one to exchange words with, should have 
kept my mouth shut and learned to love more.

Her, Past

I'm not her and i never will be, two different lives have been lived, two different
people you see.

Stop trying to live your life with her through me, i make decisions for me 
personally.

The past is the past and it's the past for a reason you see, if it was meant to be there would have been no interruptions in you destiny.

I am me and that's how it supposed to be, strong, beautiful and achieving my goals
even if you decide to leave.

Your decisions are yours and they are yours to keep, don't blame me for an indescretion in the past memories.

Are you here with me, is it me that you picture when you picturing your future degrees, or could it be that i'm living in a fantasy land and this is all a dream.

Woman

We shine bright like the sun that breaks the horizon each morning,
our hearts beat as one with the vibrational energy of the earth, our voice 
sympothises with every hurt. 
 
Through every trial hold our heads up, each day we strive for the better, all
our lif e we emphasise, we change cause we realize that day to day nothing stays the same.

Tears of joy, tears of pain fall from our face, emotionally out of place. The love from our hearts deeply hydrate a dry soul, our touches never feel the same, each one has 
it's own replenishings.

Do things we said we'd never do, sacrafice our life just to please you. Each passing day 
is a new awakening, the joy's of life, we'll soon find, our hearts may bend but never break, stand up straight, wipe the tears from your face, you are beautiful, trust and believe and you'll make it through.

Childish Fear

Darkness is my fear,
my mind plays tricks on me.

Is that something in the corner looking 
at me.

Up under the covers, i cower in fear,feels like somethings
watching me, nearer and nearer.

Maybe under my bed so i don't drag my feet.

Did i hear something, what was that, somethings in my closet ready to attack.

Something is going to get me so i scream, jump off my bed to the light switch 
in one leap,turn on the lights, but to my surprise, nothings there
but me scared of me.

The Sound of Me,

I go to the window and hear the pouring sound,
                                   but there is no rain around, 
                            So i go to the sink because i still hear a drip drop,
                                   but water  it's not.
                            I go to the bathroom to see if there is a leak, but to my
                                   dismay nothing in sight.
                            Something in the mirror suddenly catches my eye,
                                   a reflection of me and tears
                                    that i did not want to see.

My Wish

My wish is to one day feel as much love as i have pain.

As many tears fall from hurt, may tears fall for love the same.
 
For all the bad memories, love will take over my thoughts
and they will no longer exist.

Every doubt iv'e addressed be erased with loves humbleness.
  
Negativity will be gone, for if i have love then nothing is wrong.

My frowns will be turned upside down, if only,if only i had love around.

People won't remember the bad i did but remember me for the love i give.

I want to know what love really is, so next time i say I LOVE YOU, i will mean it.
