I tried to live this life...
But I feel so empty…
The silence is beating me down...
As low as the bed of the sea…
---
I can’t sear and seal...
The bad memories I left behind...
I tried to ignore, breathe with it...
But it keeps on drowning me...
---
If I could only turn back the time...
I would go sooner than my innocence...
I’ll fix the scattered pieces of my being...
And find someone to be with as I live..
---
Someone who will love and hold me...
Comfort me when I’m down...
Who will be my guiding light...
On my boring time…
---
Because every time I’m alone...
I feel the unfilled part of my life...
And I feel like I’m dying...
Dying a million times and more…
If I told you a million times how much I love you,
it would not be enough so I must tell you again,
I love you baby.
You were brought into my life for a reason.
I thank God everyday for you
I've met you a million an two times
Yet, today it's like I've never met you.
People with such bright memories fade into dark strangers.
You turned your back, closed the door
Never looking back again.
You gave up
But did you loose all hope?
Did I?
Doesn't matter much anymore
We are just a thing of the sweet past
We were once mended by the tangles of teenage love.
All your promises turned to disappointed tears on my cheeks.
You turned me into nothing in moments.
Let us dribble down the crack into the black space of nothing.
If you see him walking
Dont tell him I said hello
I will only break his heart
Again and again
Perhaps it is karma
That puts it this way
We love each other
But we are never meant to be
He broke my heart a million times
He stole my trust with a million lies
Still when I think of him I want to cry
Cling him to my chest
Feel the warmth of his lips press
Remember our teenage kiss
We are no longer children
But our eyes still light with stars
Our touch fills us with energy of light years
But if you see him walking
Dont tell him I said hello
Its unfair to to break his heart
Like he broke mine a million times
Though my heart whispers his name
I've heard it a million times. “You can do better. You deserve so much more.” In reality, you're right. But sometimes when you love, you love the person for who they are despite of what they've done wrong to you. That's what love does to you. It's not about who you deserve; it's about who you want, who you need, and who you love
I'll write your name with rose petals
And lie them on the bed
Put lilacs on your pillow case
Where you lay your lovely head
Your beauty renders me speechless
My words have runaway
You steal my breath, with just one glance
I don't know what to say
Your smile can blind the morning sun
As you cause the flowers to faint
You could make da Vinci more famous
But you're much too perfect to paint
The poets of old lay down their quills
For all of their muses stare
For none can find the words to write
Of a vision, they find so fair
Even the diamond as it touches your skin
Shed tears in utter disgrace
For no one can see its perfect shine
Compared to your beautiful face
Even the words that I've written here
Are scared of making mistakes
For they've asked me to read it a million times
Or ever how many it takes
The bells have chimed a million times
and Auld Lang Syne's been sung.
Happy New Year's been shouted out
all around the world.
Let us trust this year brings peace
to places torn apart:
where wars have raged for many years!
Can they know hope at last?
It's great to have a special day,
to put the past behind;
But most of all to one and all,
Remember to be kind:
For kindness is a candle
that flickers everywhere;
It reaches to dark corners
to those in deep despair.
new beginnings
are far to difficult
when the
past endings
have only ended to you
[and not the rest of the world]
i believe in THIS
you show me your life
but i ask
what is THIS
you truly love me
to avoid the world
but when you love me
THIS is causing the world to avoid you...
begone
fortold lies are prophecies to the men who give their children up to poison themselves
with their lusts
fornication...
your mind has become
question THIS
who ever gave you the right to live?
mock me
so i can see what i look like when i face you in those halls
the ones full of memories
i want to see the pain in your eyes [that pain that is your beauty]
yes... i believe that i give up in believin
THIS IS IT!
Said it a million times
Is it sinking in your mind?
Open your ears to these words
Is it too much for you
To hear what is really true?
These are your lies resurfacing
I didn’t know that when the world ends
We will be the only two left
I’d like to leave you with the trees
And the grass and the sky
Because I would rather die
Then be with you for all time
