Out of the Darkness

out of the darkness and into the light
i felt this distance both wrong and right
with hopes so high and feelings so low
nothing but lies could spill from your throat

jaded emotions and gestureless notions
give her back this heart unbroken
show them what would set her free
hide the colorless soul to be

crawling around on the speechless ground
save these smiles 'til the sun goes down
tension so think could be cut with a knife
out of the darkness and into the light

Never Gone

you've helped me through so much
and kept me standing strong
when a thousand times i swore to myself 
every inch of my pride was gone

we've seen a lot of light
and some darkness in the sky
but one thing always stood for sure
that you never left my side

i swear you've seen me cry
a thousand times before
but never did you let a single tear drop hit the floor

you never sent me walking blindly
or staggering into the dark
you made me hold my head up high
so i wouldn't miss a mark

I've held you in my arms
as tears poured down your face
and i swear i was so scared 
that this time you would break

but we've seen a lot of light
and some darkness in the sky
but one thing we both know for sure
is i love you more than life..

9/11

we miss you more and more
with every passing day
most cant even get through the phase 
of why you had to fade away

we watched you light up the world
with your smiles glowing bright
and now we have to live with hints of pain
and not seeing you every night

but most would trade a year 
every second of every day
just to hear your voice
angel whispers here to stay

now light up the corners of heaven
brighter than every star
as we remember the tragic day
we had to watch you fall..
	


	
	
	
       Dedicated to all those whos lives were lost in the tragic 9/11 bombing
and the families of those whos lives were ended when they were just beginning
