Tashina Webb Poem
How am I supposed to breathe, when the air is thickest here?
At this place where the truth comes out
I need to decide on my own who I am, without the help of the sun
I have to face the things that I keep hidden before I can ever face hope and love
Two things I don’t believe in anymore
This world is obsessed with the short term pleasures that once over leave you more empty
than before
So we all move faster in this attempt to outrun it
Not knowing it always live in us...it’s a loosing fight
And the truth is hiding in our hearts, eating at our souls, screaming to be acknowledged
This place we're at will only leave us craving for more and leave us unsatisfied
To open up is to die, but to hold back is hallow
We're al left on the floor needing a hero
Not realizing that person is in all of us...
So stop fleeing to the light, turn and face the dark
Fight the past you've kept hidden, learn and move
It's the only way to truly feel the sun

Tashina Webb Poem
So come in the dead of the night, when the light from the sky fades to gray
and your old embrace changes
come when the scent from last night has been washed away
and runs into mine, then melts away with time
Come and tell me its Okay, that you will love me anyway
Even if the stars cease to shine and the light fades from my eyes
Tell me you'll love me if I always stay the same
and become stuck in a rut
Would you love me through the rain?
Come and tell me its okay, that you'll stay,,,anyway
Cause I need you more than anything else
like the flower needs the sun.

Tashina Webb Poem
I should have caught myself before I ran away
Letting you guide my actions with your love and lust
...allowing myself to be dragged down to you
You played your games, spun your lies, left your mark
And those scars will eventually heal BUT serve as reminders
that lies are pretty till caught
I should have stopped myself the first time our eyes met
and I put up my walls
I should have screamed and stayed focused
instead of letting that need consume me
I knew you weren't what I wanted
but I felt wanted in your arms
Though I knew in my heart it wasn't you...
I craved love
I should have caught myself spinning my own set of
self-indulgent lies
They didn't hurt you but they killed my hope
Next time I will catch my heart from leading
me into these games
And realize that being alone in the light
Is much better than bedding with lies at night
