Crashed Love

Teardrops slipping, sliding, falling unceremoniously 
Bruised and battered, this broken hearted agony. 
Memories arise of the times gone before 
When being in love with you held promises of something more. 

Silently my world comes crashing again 
Leaving a twisting, turning, searing pain. 
Little did I imagine it would have turned out like this 
A sudden end to all our Dreams of bliss... 

Confused…. 

I don’t understand these words
That are said they pass through me  
Right through my head 

Sometimes I wish that it all would end 
Just get it over I would just go around that bend 

I’m not depressed 
I’m just ready to give up 
My life has been filled 
Just like my cup 

Oh well 
Life just keeps coming 
And people lying…

My Dad

It never quits
My dad's h i t s
I see myself in the mirror
And I am to become
But I just go numb
It hurts to see
What all he has done to me
It never fails
When he hears me wail
It never quits
My dad's h i t s

Used Up

This life that I lived
So far has been filled
With pain and hurt
I have been used
Like a torn up old 
T-Shirt....

Emotional

Why do you walk away?
I love the way we look into each others eyes and never look away.
Eyes like a silver moon that never leaves.
Secret Glances, Second Chances carry me.
Talking softly but never heard...
My dreams will never be the same...

Let's Get Lost

She was a 10 years old
When her life was sold
He hurt her in ways unimaginable
He may have not have been her father
But he was her brothers
He told the 10 year old to get in the bed
Or something would happen to her 1 month brother
The bed was cold
The springs were rusted
Her heart was always filled with love and care
But after that night
She wouldn't dare share
The 10 year old went to school the next day
Without anything to say
Her friends found out
And shunned her out
She told an      
The police were called
She was taken from her mother
Who at that time wouldn't believe her
She stayed at a family members house
A couple days went by
Then she was returned home
The bad guy was found
She still has nightmares to this day
And she has this to say:
"I'm sorry for doing what I knew was wrong
All I wanted was for my brother to be safe."


This is a true story, It's MY story. I hope that all you readers unerstand that I still blame 
myself for what happened that night. I DON'T want your sympathy, I just need friends who 
actually care. Thank You For Reading Let's Get Lost. . . . . .

Twilight (The Book)

Bella and Edward are quite different you see
For she is the human
And he is the vampire
Their relationship is difficult at some times
But they get through it together
Bella and Edward are our future
So deal with it!

Emo Style

You see me coming your way
But you do not want to be
Seen with me
I am a disgrace you say
But why you keep calling
Me back

I can't let this go on
I must put an end to it
You say you love me
So show me that love

You hve hurten me before
But this time will be
Different
Because I have no heart left
For you to break. . .

Just Let It Go. . .

Let go

I'll bring you closer

Right now

I'll hold on tightly

Let go

We're going no where

Somewhere

And aren't over

Harder times like these!

Growing up on the streets!

Harder times like these!

I'll put you back on your feet!

And I fall to the ground with my teardrops

And I get lost everytime my heart stops

This love this      is burning me away

Lost All Hope and Love

I have lost all hope,
I have lost all love.
I shall never know what it feels like
To be with someone that knows how
To treat me.
All my hopes and dreams are a waste of time,
It's hard for me to try and rhyme.
I have no confidence,
I have no life,
I have no way to say, "wanna be friends?"
Cause in the end you'll see
That there's nothing left of me.
No one to love me or hold me close to their heart,
No one to keep me safe or tell me I'm beautiful and smart.
I have lost all hope,
I have lost all love,
There's no use in me saying this.
I'm finished,
I'm done.

Unfamilar Faces

I see these faces every where I turn
They tell me to do things
They say to cut, hurt and kill
So I cut and hurt only myself

I don't like these faces in my head
They like to laugh and haunt me at night
The visions to in to fright

Then my friend stops and says to me
"Alexz, They're not real. They don't have to control your life like this."
I stop and think
Yes it's true 
Then they're faces disappear
