Awake

Awaken by a terrible dream
With a sign of struggle between you and me
As though it may seem
The dream becomes vivid and clear
Only for a second because your voice is near
I begin to hesitate as you kiss my face
Cause their is someone that has taken your place
All that time you were gone I felt lonely and unsafe
It wasn't a choice it just happened by mistake
I guess it was meant to be or it was fate.

I couldn't figure out the empty pieces of my dream
I never thought this decision would lower your self-esteem
Cause all I can remember is you being hurt and crying
But when I saw your reaction I felt like dying
Never knew that you would have came back for me
Cause this dream only reflects my reality
 
In this dream towards the end everything becomes clear
I figured out the reason why you left me dear
Cause even though someone has took your place
You couldn't let me go but you had to
So we said our good-byes and you kissed my face
I hugged you which seemed like forever
Your soft lips I remember everyday
But letting you go was my biggest mistake
Because I woke up crying and you weren't there
Only to realize that this was no dream
That I was facing reality the whole time.

Missing You

Missing you is no longer easy to me
Everyday goes by without you here
I've become breathless and I can't speak
At night I dream of holding you near
But just the thought of it brings tears.
 
Missing you is no longer easy to me
Without you by my side I am weak
You kept me strong and pure
How will I ever survive without you
I'm not even sure.
 
Missing you is no longer easy to me
The love we shared can never be broken
Our hearts has become one
And picking up the pieces is hard to do
But is life worth it without me and you
Nothing is left here but old memories
So it's time to move on without you
But our hearts are still connected as one.

Taken For Granted

My soul wonders the earth lonely,
Only to be found by that special someone,
Cause my heart is taken hostage already,
And sometimes I wonder If I'm ever ready for this place we call our world,
Only to hear that kids are starving everyday
But yet we take things for granted because we want things to go our way,
We should be lucky because we get three meals a day,
But what about the unlucky ones that have nothing or little to eat at all,
They don't worry about their appearance or image,
But you tell us that and we're ready to go shopping and hit up the mall,
Doesn't that make us a little selfish above it all,
It's clear you see we have so much freedom than others,
But we abuse and misused our education,
Because nobody wants to learn and the ones that do always get interrupted,
Yet we could have the smartest people in the world,
So people become stupid and all we hear about is crime and kids being abducted,
But yet everyone wants to live in this great nation,
I dont see why they choose to live the way we live,
Cause just listening to this everyday seems like another radio station,
But after awhile the same stories get boring and old
And all the missing person's case crimes become cold
