If I had a dime

If I had a dime 
I'd pay for the time that I had lost long ago
but I only have a penny and a head
filled with many memories of summer spent with you

Now it's winter, and I still think
of the summer nights 
although we had our fair share of fights 
nothing compares to those 90 days 
of having you by my side 

Understand me when I say 
of course, I miss your presence or the way you laugh 

But if I had a dime 
I wouldn't ask you to be mine this valentine 

Hearing your name, I can't help but smile 
mainly at the remembrance of those childish days 
but not as the person you are now
though you have fooled me once 
I shouldn't let you fool me twice 

So, if I had a dime I wouldn't let you waste my time, but i'd keep 
the summer nights when you were sincere 
and I was merely naive 
for following my dreams.

Mirror Mirror

I wish to be a bird 
to see the world
to represent peace and freedom
Instead, I am confined 
in a glass cage
that shatters to the touch

In this world 
I am a lion
stuck in a fake reality
beautiful to look at
confined by my own reflection
always to be on display 
but never to be seen
to represent beauty and anger
painted to be a villain 
forever stuck

Come on

He walks with me 
His stance strongly weak
Come on he yells 
He reaches out to me 
Today I hate him 

He looks at me 
A look so sweet it's bitter 
Come on he says 
His smile seems so familiar 
Today I am lost 

He laughs 
His eyes so alluringly green
Come on he whispers 
His head nods to go
Today I fell in love

New Year, Same Me

No matter what I do
I am the same
I am the same little girl 
all those years ago

No matter what I do
the world is still as grey 
as all those years ago 

New year, new me
the same insecure teenager
crying over her stale hair

Resolutions becoming unkept promises
school feeling like a second home 
gone before dawn back after dusk

And tears that shed on my childhood bed 
felt like it was nearly the end.

I am

I am like a dog
my love being eternal 
waiting and waiting...

Bad at love

Repeating old mistakes
Falling harder each and every time

Love is a poison
And I intend 
To drink this remedy 
Everyday 
Waiting for my
destiny

Love shall find even the undeserving
Yet the deserving only find love at the end
People who don’t look 
Find gold 
People searching for ages 
Find fools gold

So if love is poison
Let it drown me 
And then I may find gold
