Dear Stranger,

I tried my best
To show you part of me.
The side of me
You've never seen.

I'm more than a daughter;
I'm an artist, a writer,
A sister, a friend
And now to you a stranger.

I have a question,
Have you ever realized
That I have my own voice
And I have my own life?

I'm not relinquishing my soul--
I won't sell it to anyone.
If I can't be myself
Then who will I become?

I have a mind of my own,
A heart and gifts.
I have a life of my own
And it's mine to live.

Yes, you gave me life,
But it's not yours to give.
You gave me this life
So I can learn to live.

Tell me, have we met?
Have you ever seen me?
Or did you just see my music,
My tee shirts and jeans?

It's not what I look like,
It's how I look at myself.
I'm embarrassed to show you it.
Only you and no one else.

Don't be disappointed,
Mad or upset.
Be happy I have morals,
A mind and self-respect.

I'm the person I want to be.
I stay true to myself,
Meaning I'm me.
I'm me for no one else.

I'm smart and independent
Because you made me this way.
I'm no longer fearful and afraid,
That's not how I wanted to stay.

Now do you know me?
Or should I continue?
I'm making you realize,
I'm not being rude.

So make your decision.
Please, I just want an answer.
Not to be disrespectful,
But are you my mom or my mother?

Choose Me Or Lose Me

Taking deep breaths,
here we are.
We're so close
But we're so far.

I'm not a second choice,
It's either you choose me
Or after she breaks your heart again
You forever lose me.

So speak now
Or forever hold your peace
Are you going to go back to her,
Or are you going to be with me?

Remember, you have one chance.
Maybe she'll sit and wait,
But I don't wear my heart on me sleeve,
You'll be too little too late.

When will you realize
I'm not a heartbreaker,
That I'm not a mistake,
I'm nothing like her.

Maybe one day you'll see
That time and time again
The more you go back to her
You'll be her backup boyfriend.

A Whole New World

Take me away,
Help me escape,
Show me the world,
Show me my fate.

Carry me out,
Show me the land,
Show me you're no boy,
Show me you're a man.

Bring me hope,
Release my fear,
Give me love,
Don't bring me tears.

Promise you love me,
Promise you care,
Promise me forever,
Show me it's there.

Bite your lip,
Open your eyes,
Show me your heart,
Show me no lies.

We're in a new world,
We have a new life,
Tell me we're perfect,
Show me we're right.

Kiss me in the stars,
Make me feel weak,
Keep me standing strong,
Knock me off my feet.

Baby, you're all I need.
You're all I can ask for,
All I can want,
All I can love and more.

Old Grandma November 26, 1935 To March 9, 2011

On this cold, weary day,
Where we gather in sorrow,
Wondering what's in store
For tomorrow's tomorrow.

A long life lived
To its fullest extent.
You are long loved forever,
And within your love we are content.

No longer will you suffer,
For we have heavy hearts
Drenched in tears and sorrow
As we watch for you under the stars.

We would give up all of the world
Just for us to see
That little piece of heaven
Looking back at thee.

Tonight as we sleep,
Tonight as we lay,
Tonight as we dream,
Tonight we will pray.

A beloved mother and grandmother,
A beloved great-grandmother of mine,
A beloved person to us all.
We have been but victims of a crime.

I'M Trying To Get Over You

There was always that promise,
But never that guarentee
That I was yours to hold
And you'd spend your life with me.

Something inside of me
Screamed to lay my trust on you,
I don't know what made me do that,
But love is what I learned to do.

My tears are rising to the surface
And billowing down my cheeks.
Did you really gaze into my eyes?
I never let the pain leak.

Fear was my shelter;
I hid under cover.
I never openned up that way,
You made me a lover.

If I didn't look into your eyes,
If I didn't touch your lips
I wouldn't know heartbreak,
I wouldn't feel tricked.

When I found myself in you,
That piece I didn't know I was missing,
I knew you were different.
Inside of you was something.

Maybe the way you caressed me in your arms,
The way you made me laugh,
The way it killed to say goodbye,
That it was me you looked at.

We'll never be the same,
Never again will I be with you.
I learned my lesson, but most importantly,
I learned how to say "I love you too."

Valentine

You took away my heart
When I had nothing from the start.

You took my breath away
Leaving me with nothing left to say.

I'm proud to say that you're mine,
But will you be my valentine?

Give Me a Sign

I can't feel you.
You aren't around me.
I'm falling through this
Atmosphere.

I'm holding onto
All I can see,
Begging please
Just to believe.

Looking up
To the sky,
Wondering
If I'm alive.

Burning my skin.
The fire is deep,
Deep underground.
I still don't believe.

Are you out there?
Can you hear me?
Give me a sign,
Make me believe.

I have no faith,
But I still want to believe.
Give me a sign,
Make me believe.

Kids are starving,
People are dying.
Give me a reason,
A reason to believe.

Cassie will come
And question my beliefs.
I'll give her an answer
And she'll spare me.

A Life Without You

I listen to angels tears,
They're pouring down my window pane.
They're tapping begging to come in,
But for some reason, I just refrain.

I haven't seen sunshine
Since the day you left me alone.
Stranded with no guidance,
But raised with instinct and self-control.

I wasn't dependent on you,
However, I needed your guidance.
For some reason you couldn't handle that,
Like raising me was your weakness.

At first it was painful,
I cried everyday,
But I'm learning to deal with it.
I'm going the right way.

I thought my strength was failing,
That I'd never smile again.
But I feel myself getting stronger.
On my own two feet I stand.

I can't say I won't need you,
your advice, guidance and reasons.
I can say I'll be fine without you,
your insults, fights and opinions.

I Dare You

You took me by the heart
When you pressed against my lips.
You said let's take it slow,
But now you've only quit.

I don't fall for just anyone,
Barely anyone at all.
Something about you though,
Something made me fall hard.

I can't pinpoint it,
Or describe what it is.
I'm trying to figure you out,
But I just can't find it.

You had me ball and chain,
Wrapped around your finger
With freedom to be who I please,
But I want to be your girl.

The girl you kiss hello,
The girl you don't say goodbye to first,
The girl you intertwine fingers with,
The girl you tell everyone "I'm hers."

Why won't you give me the chance
To prove I'm not a heartbreaker,
To prove I won't leave you,
To show you what I'm worth.

I thought we had something.
I could've sworn you felt it too.
But now I'm left here alone
With a broken heart for you.

One single chance.
One strike and I'm out.
Just let me prove to you
I'm not another doubt.

By the Way

I promised I'd always love you
And I always meant it.
I swore I'd never hurt you,
But I did and I regret it.

We both told our lies,
We both made mistakes,
We both fell in love
And that can't be replaced.

To you I was everything
And you were my destiny.
To you I was an angel
And you were made for me.

Time goes on
And I shed less tears,
But deep, deep down
I still have my fears.

I'm scared you'll forget me.
I'm scared you don't care.
I'm scared you'll regret us.
I'm just... scared.

You're still my sacrifice,
I'd still risk the world for you.
Because no one will ever love you
The way I still do.
