How Could I?

How could i have done what i have to you?
how could i have hurt you the way i did?
how dare i make you go through my pain too,
how dare i run and went and hid,
i cant take it anymore, i dont want you feeling my pain,
its mine and mine to take, dont tell me what you told me again,
im sick of being a bitch and hurting you,
im sick of making you worry and stay up too,
I dont want you have to deal with me anymore,
forget me, leave me, i implore,
do as i say and dont think of me,
cause... im telling you now, we just cant be,
i dont understand you sometimes, but thats okay,
i cant always have it my way,
This is my final goodbye,
but ill always love you, i cant lie.

She

she stares out her window, eyes swollen with pain,
she looks outside to see only pouring rain,
how can she lie? this reflects how she feels,
how can she lie, after this, she wont ever heal,
seeing birds gliding free from care,
how she wished she was anywhere but right there,
alone in her room, half way across the world,
sits a small insignificant little girl.

Sorry

today was the first time i cried, for a long time,
i felt my fears flow once again,
i felt all that had once ruptured my heart had come back to haunt me,
i saw the memories that i had locked away,
and i faced my fears,
alone,
once again.

i was crying and couldnt stop,
oh how i wish i didnt,
but i found myself, bowing to my weakness once again,
im afraid
now,
terrified,
i want to take back the wrong that i had done,
but i cannot turn back time,
i always seem to be ruining things,
i just wish i knew what to do...

now... im here, unable to face you with apologies,
unable to say anything,
but wishing,
hoping,
that maybe,
tomorrow will be okay...
*crying my heart out*
i couldnt tell you.
im to afrid, so here it is.
i lay myself out to u,
at my weakest.

Uncertainty

whats done is done and whats said is said,
but your words continue to spin in my head,
the promises you made to me,
the image you said we'd be
but we're not there, we're in ths place of uncertainty,
this place, im unsure if it's still you and me...
this darkness that lies within my heart,
the darkness that feill sme part to part,
it envelops my very soul,
the one thing i thought would remain whole,
i dont regret meeting you,
but i wish there was something that i could do,
these broken tears concieved by my greatest fears,
the loss of the one thing i found to be true,
that one thing i lost... it was you...

Goodbye

frail and afraid to be forgotten, i feel old and worn,
too many times, iv had my mere being torn,
forgive me if i will not reason,
it feels as if everything is treason,
i have lived a life of betrayal and mistrust,
but trust is you, in us, i must,
i am trying to fight my fears,
lonely now, i free my tears,
flowing strongly like never before,
oh this pain, i cant bare much more
not seeing you here,
not feeling you near,
reality has hit me like a train on the run,
its like the weight of the world is on me, it weights a tonne,
i want to be free of the constraints that hold me,
but i am terrified, what if this couldnt be,
wat if i cant relive myself of this ongoing pain?
what if i have to go through it all over again?

give me a hand to hold,
show me how to be bold,
when i felt the end was near,
you tod me you were right here,
i was so close i could taste freedom,
i didnt know who i was or whre i was from,
i just wanted it to end then and there,
but you should me a way that i could bare,
I was so close, i could hear peace calling me,
it was there where i should be,
but i turned away 
and said goodbye death, today is not my day.

Lover's Race

As the thousand before me have said
Why oh why these tears have I shed?
These feelings have been questioned over and over again,
We keep losing our heart to these boys (not even men)

the heartless the broken, 
those who cannot rise from the fallen,
I speak on behalf of thee,
these feelings aren’t only felt by me;

The hatred, the love, the lies,
The painful memory of goodbye,

The belief, the faith, the fight,
The promise that things would be alright,

The promise, your word of forever,
Those words “girl, ill hurt you, never”

That first moment, that first kiss,
That very first feeling of bliss,
I ask do you remember any of this?

Then The silent goodbye of the sullen tears 
Instead of a fairytale, youve brought on my greatest fears
Those times I tried to help you out,
When I tried to understand you and what this was all about,
I asked you and In hope I’d see what you felt I looked into your eyes,
Frightened, I saw only loneliness and darkness that you tried to disguise,
“Oh God” I remembered thinking, “If only I could take all your pain away”
Even though now, you’ve broken me, I still do feel strongly this way...

Destiny

When you walked into my life, I was astounded I couldn't get over you,
But the moment you walked out, I shrugged it off,
You walked back into my life when I thought I'd never see you again and I was delighted ^^
You walked out and I got over it,
Now that you've walked back into my life once again, 
I've fallen for you,
But this time, 
I've changed,
I'm older and I understand my feelings now,
I look at you and I see the same, yet so much more than I had ever seen before,
Now that you've walked into my life,
I can't let you walk out again without letting you know...
I know it's been a few years and I was always too shy to show it,
But,
(insert name) *Im not telling you guys who it is * ^^
I don't wanna let you walk out of my life again,
I don't want to let you walk away without...
without...
knowing...
understanding....
That...Ever...Since...That...Very.First. 
Moment...
I've...
Loved 
You.
And 
I... 
Never...
Got...
Over...
You.
Even. 
Though. 
I....
Shrugged it off....
And... Mayb, just mayb, do you think this... 
This is DESTINY ?
Calling for YOU ?
Calling for ME ?
For US ?

I've always loved you... I just didn't know that I'd always been missing you. That empty
space... It was for you to fill...

Different Eyes

All that I had is gone, and all of my efforts a waste,
When I look around me, there is no more of a familiar place,
without the ringing music of your voice,
I'm so scared, but I don't know if I have a choice,
I just ask for you to turn around and look at me,
and tell me now, what do you see?

I don't want to stop you from living your life,
I don't want you to know, you've cut me like a knife,
But really now, all that I want you to do,
Is just tell me, what do I mean to you?

Don't play games, don't lie,
I know that was a painful goodbye,
But, I still see a gloomy familiar look in your eyes,
I know you may not know it now, but you'll soon realise,
I don't know what it is, I dont think even know,
But whatever it is, talk to me, let it show,

I wont judge you any less,
All i want is for you to do your best,
There is nothing wrong with a guy having a heart,
I know its like the macho thing to not fall apart,
But still I say, to ignore that you do feel,
Doesn't make it any less real,
So please try to understand what I'm trying to say,
Don't bottle up all that you feel, let it convey,
All I'm saying is that if there's no-one you can talk to,
Well, theres always me, I'll always be there for you,
I wont think any worse, in fact I'd think more,
I know its not easy when it's yourself that your at war,
Its like a thing you dont do, 
To show everyone the "real you"
But dont you realise,
Everybody will love the guy you disguise...

If they leave you, then they're not real friends,
No matter, I'll stand by you till the end,
I'll care and I''l love you undyingly,
and I'll express my feelings undeniably,
Even if you think this is experience is new,
I'll be there to guide you right through =]

So look at you now, I know you're not content with who you are,
But theres still time and you can go far,
If this is who you can be, then why not try?
Please don't give up now, don't say goodbye...

I care about you and love you in every way,
Even if you change, I'll still love you everyday,
Just let me in, and I know I'll never leave your side,
I'll hold your hand, so you'll never have to hide,
If it makes you feel better, I'll be there to hold you near,
If ever you are in doubt or ever in fear,
But if ever you were afraid, 
I'd be there to give you courage to be brave =]

These are just a few of the things I'd do,
Simply because I'm in love with you!

Never Meant To.

You were never meant to see me through the shadows,
you were never meant to see my internal battles,
you were never meant to feel my pain,
i was never meant to put you through hell all over again,
you were never meant to see me cry,
you were never meant to ask me why,
you were never meant to be there,
you were never meant to care,
you were never meant to meet me,
you were never meant to see,
you were never meant to love me,
you were never meant to know we could be...

Just a Child

Her eyes turned grey,
what had she done that day?
the clouds they hovered above her head,
following her where ever she had lead,
the skies, they began to cry,
in sync with her own tears, she couldnt lie,
she fell to her knees, from the pain within,
she couldnt do it anymore, this fight she couldnt win,
these spherical drops all falling around,
finally she understood and continued sobbing without a sound,
all her hurt, all the things she could no longer bare,
she felt that the heavens were in pain, so they could share,
they understood each other, understood the pain,
and so together, they contributed to the rain.

As minutes turned to hours, she felt herself being carried away,
but she wanted this too, so nothing did she say,
she watched as people passed her by,
no one even forcing her to lie,
she was a shadow in this world,
nothing more but a small insignificant girl,
they couldnt care anymore, she was too much trouble,
so she retreated into her little bubble,
where the world fell away,
and she could have her say,
where no one would hurt, there was no pain,
then it hit her, a sudden rush of tormentation, all over again,
and no one her her screams her pleads of it to stop,
she was always ignored, even that cop,
when she asked him to help, he brushed her off for being a child,
even when she called for help, 000 she dialed,
still they resided to believe her claim,
all the things that troubles her mind, she is shamed,

but still she fights to see this light of hope that might not even exist,
but she doesnt think she deserves what she already has, all of this...
