Dark Mirror

What do I really see that I hate
Is it something that makes me so intimidated
Is it that I always wake up feeling dead inside
Is it that I shatter into pieces without any worries

Being around is like dying hundreds of times
The memories that fade inside of me....
go away like gunshots blasting one by one in my soul
When I think of the future...hatred goes by so fast

As if it shows faith coming from the past
What can be interpreted to visualize real pictures
What can I really see?
Is there evil that can't come out?

Or is there just...hate, racism, jealously, pain, pressure, worries, mistakes, death or 
even doubt
But what can be in this mirror?
Is it death or just dark?

Turning a New Leaf

My heart aches day and night...24/7
I can't sleep at night and how can I
I can't live my life and as each day passes I get weaker and weaker
You've been gone for a year and it still hurts

I just imagine what you're doing right now without me
You've probably forgotten about me by now
Still till this day I have no idea why you left me
You never spoke to me, you just shut me out completely

At that moment I was confused and at the same time I despised you for it
You weren't the same man that I fell in love with a year ago
What happened to you? Us?
Please explain to me what made you push me away

I became depressed, lost, weak and unloved
What you did to me made me not want to trust any other man ever
Whatever you are doing now, I hope that you're happy...
If so...you ruined another's life

I can still feel your warm hands sliding against mine
Your smile that can make a room glow without a doubt
Your voice that sounds so trusting and safe to speak to
I loved that about you

Sometimes...actually all the time I'd cry because of what you did to me
My own friends and family hated you, but who wouldn't
Time has passed and I've forgiven you for what you've done
I turned the other cheek and I'm feeling unstoppable

My phrase, "No one will put me down ever again." - not even you
I'm living my life solo and I'm making a name for myself
People cry every day after being let down in a relationship 
I know for a fact that I'll never be crying again for a man because I'm strong

I'm invincible and I can handle the world on my own
With faith and prayer, you can go a long way and God will have someone in store 
for you
That man that I once cried for is history and will stay that way
My new man with soon come and will keep me at ease

Strength...
Trust...
Honesty...
That's all a woman needs to keep her warm at night with a man

Mona Lisa

It's now dark
The curtains are closed
The audience has gone wild
The actress has taken her final bow

All she hears is applauds, but no one realizes what has actually been done
Tonight is her final act
Roses are thrown on stage while her mascara runs down her cold cheek
Now she only sees a crowd, but mute in her eyes

Standing there in pain, a light hits her
She is in the spot light of reality
Begging for a sign, any kind of sign to come 
Unable to function while dreaming of her past

He comes to mind
Tell her that it'll be alright and no one will hurt her
Lies...Lies...and that is all that she'll ever hear
He says words that are sweet and kind, but means them with every girl he meets

The actress has nothing to live for
Her life has gone into shambles and can't be repaired
He took her feeling of living another day on this Earth
He left her all alone in the dark without notice

She wants to believe that it was for the best
But she can't seem to figure out why it had to be her at this moment
She loved him...he loved her, that's what she thought
Life was incredible as though it was a fairy tale

The spot light leaves her and its dark again
Everyone is gone, vanished- just her
Helpless and nothing left to go on with
Give her a sign, any kind of sign

Mona...
Mona Lisa was her name
She never let anyone not even a man shut her down, until him
He slid right past her radar and ruined her little by little

Give her a sign, any kind of sign
Let her see that there is more to live for than being heartbroken
Give her the spot light again to strive for her fulfilled destiny
Open up the curtain and give her a round of applause to moving on with her life

Fernando

Fernando is like no other
Eager to get inside of one’s mind
Ready to settle down 
Nuts for a small town girl 
Adores her so much that he wants 
to marry her
Needs to hear those words in 
return, “I”…
Do love you
Only to know that life has 
something to live for

Dark Clouds

She hides in a dark fog
Crying out her broken love for him
For the man who never sees her in the dark
She's quiet, mellow and doesn't allow others to come across her path

It is only her in this world
A world that is dangerous and very evil
Whenever someone comes around her, she brings her power against them
When someone wants to give her a kiss, she spreads poison all through their lips

She destroys them like bugs
She wants to rule the world and belong to her
People call her "death trap"
-Death of Romance

Trap of taking their soul
She doesn't understand the meaning of love
To her, love means killing one another and taking over
She lives in a shadow all alone

All alone in a fog
Coldness all over her body
No one is around only her
Love is the only way out of this treacherous curse

Untitled

I stand here alone 
Waiting for you to come to me
I try to go on like I never knew you
My world can’t go on without you

I pray for you to come back
My heart is shattered because of you
I’m worthless if you aren’t in my life
That’s what I’ve always said to myself

Its only lies to make me cope with losing you
I try to move on, but you’re stuck in my heart
It must be a sign of some sort, but who knows
I know  that we made I big mistake

It is so hard to be apart from you
I need to see you
Hear you
Touch you

Is it just a dream or lust?
It feels so real, but at the same time I do wonder about my feelings
Can you hear me?
Speak to me and make it become real

Where am I going with this?
I’m asleep and can’t wake up from this dream
Voices tell me that I don’t need you
I disagree with them because they can’t feel what I feel

Love
True love for an individual that’s away from me
I can’t face life without you
I want to find you, but I’m too afraid to take that chance

Would you do the same for me?

Runaway

Silence in the mist of the night
Was there ever anything wrong with them?
Thinking every night while lying in bed with him
He seemed to ignore her lately

Did she ever do anything to hurt him?
He never spoke to her about their issues
She thought that they were just fine
One thought came to mind…

Runaway
And never look back 
Would he run after her?
Probably not…who would?

Being scared of losing him made her leave 
She wanted to stay, but something said run..
As far as she could 
Away from the likings of him

She loved him
More than she could ever love herself
He took her fulfillment of life away
Just runaway

Runaway from pain and sorrow
There is something much better waiting for you elsewhere
Look at yourself
She’s not the same woman that she used to be two years ago

Why let him do this to her?
She can’t even give a decent explanation
Runaway….never look back lost girl
Find yourself and don’t let anyone take that from you

The Guy

When you look down at the shear blue walls of the mint green interior
The full moon comes down with so much elegance
While you stand there and watch the stars change right in front of you
As he holds your soft hands, you start to shiver

As we wait for something exciting to come by
Trying to understand how I was chosen to be yours
Wanting to share more time with you
All I could remember was that we had to go our seperate ways

Still thinking about you when I write poems or even draw
This nature makes me feel alive
Not alive to stay and be with you
As I make my life a different one, you come to the door

To notice who it is, I turn and look while I blush back at you
You look and smile asking to come inside
I open the door and enjoy the moments that we've missed
Until our special moment was blown into pieces by reality

Without You

I can't breathe
I can't sleep
I can't think...
Without you

You were the one that I needed
You were the one that I loved
You were the one, you were the one...you were the one that I
How can I move on?

You took me away...took me away from it all
You cared for me so
More than anyone did before
How can I move on?

You brought me back to life
You grabbed my hand so I wouldn't drift away
I loved you so
How can I move on...from you?

I can't move
I can't eat
I can't live...
Without you right next to me

Come back to me my love
I'm here waiting for you
No matter how long it takes
I'll be here for you

Imagine

Try to imagine a different kind of world
A different kind of world that is not real
Imagine the both of us and in a world of our own
A world of our own that is incomplete
Can't you see that we can be a part of each other
What is so different that you can't see...in me

What is it?
Do I have a harsh life that you can't ever keep up
Can't you tell me what's the problem?
My world is full of make believe stories 
Always ending with the prince being with the princess
All you see is just past that

Is it me or you?
What do you have to say?
I can't deal with what mess you go through
That's why we can't go on any longer
This feels such like a game
I don't play any games

I'm not a puppet and you'll never be my puppet master
My world can only see that you're so much less for me
So I can only let you float into the clouds
Never to remember you as the man I loved
To have the time to enjoy
Make me feel so much happy and free

As we would walk along the clear blue sea shores
We'd pick up shells and look up at the stars at night
The stars were our favorite
Don't you remember when it was midnight...
We would cherish and make our world into a dream
By feeling the pain that we had with each other

The moon, the stars and the rain...
Were very compassionate and will always be desirable
Our life was made up of feelings and other things
While we smiled out at each other and made our love more equally pure
The destiny that could never be broken
The love that made me want to do anything in the world to protect you as mine

The moisten in our life was very vague
It made me feel alive 
But this is how we need to close our book of love
