Kristin Leflore

missing you bring's tear's to my soul, I'm just afraid you'll never know,
the thoughest thing to do was letting you go, it hasnt sunk in, Im just waiting
untile the day I see you again, just don't forget the date, and stand in heaven with 
god at the gate,  I want both of you to walk beside me, I pray for you all the time,
everyday and night, in a place that's dark your my light, wasnt it the other day we
were talking at the table,  now your gone and thing's arent the same, I probably 
shouldn't but it's tydale I blame,  I wish you could come back, I turned around and 
you were gone just like that, now it's like the entire world's flat, it seem's like 
yesterday we were eating indian taco's me you and my dad, talking about this 
makes me sad, and wasnt we just outside smoking?, laughing and jokeing, and 
where did time go to, it isn't with me, but maybe with you what happened you 
were always their to talk with, i just want you to know your presence was a gift, 
well I miss you deeply, love always me keri.

Daddy's Girl

I may not have a perfect world
but I got my daddy, and I'm a 
daddy's girl, I may not wear
a big diamond or a big pearl, 
but I got my daddy and I'm a
daddy's girl, and the time's
my hair just won't curl, my 
daddy like's it, and I got my
daddy and I'm a daddys girl
I may not dance or twirl, but
I got my daddy and I'm a 
daddy's girl.

The Person

this goes to the person who made my day's brighter growing up as a child,
who made everything just right and not to mild, the person I looked up to, who 
made me smile the times I was blue, this is to the person who could move 
mountain's, and the person who was their when he was, and gave me love just 
because, this is to the person who is a super hero in my eye's, and made every 
day a new surprise, who never settled for less, who gave it his all and done his 
best,  the man who made my world a happier place, and gave my life love and 
grace, the one person I'd never replace, the person who could look at thing's in a 
different way and have just the right thing to say, this goes to the person who 
always done what he could who made life great and everyday just as good, my 
brother jimmie.

The Way

It's like when I talk to you and you'r not there,
the way I wonder if you care, the way you make 
me feel, the dream's I have thats so unreal, the 
way you put fire in my eye's, it make's me want
to kill, when you not their I wonder if you love me
still, I mean it I don't know the deal, I'm scared,
I'll admit it, so much more came with it

I Never Knew

I never knew a week would be so long, and I never thought that 
you'd be gone, I never knew missing you would be so hard or
painful, and I never knew the words I called you would make me 
feel so shameful, I never knew how much I loved the laugh's we 
shared, and I never knew how much I cared, please be their, I miss
your voice, and if you don't want to see me that's your choice, I just never
knew how much you meant to me, and still do, give me a chance, its not my
fault I never knew.

I Fell For It

I fell for it silly me, I thought you'd care
I thought you'd be their, silly me I fell for it,
you lied, I fell for it, and I couldn't tell you 
how many time's I cried, it would break 
my heart to talk about what you put me 
through, haha I fell for it, and now I don't 
even know what to do, silly me I fell for it 
again, why didn't I stay out, when you welcomed
me in, and the funny thing is you walked away
with a grin, silly me I fell in love with you, silly me
I enjoyed the pain you put me through.

You Know

365 day's a year, in my mind I watch you disapear, so tell me what do you see 
when you look in the mirror, I think I can make you see thing's clearer, will you 
give me just one more chance, you can see my pain, just give me a glance, you 
want to know how it feel's, it's hard to explain, the hurt, the tear's, and the pain, 
did you know I love you, you might know, I'm upset, you might know I'm crazy 
about you, you might even know my favorite color is pink, do I cross your mind, if 
not you might need to stop and think, go ahead and kill me again, it dont matter 
anyway, the hurt will never end, I'm still hopeing you'll come and take me away, 
you know how I feel there's not much more I can say, you walked out of my life so 
could you walk back in, just one more time make me happy again.


                                                                                            dedicated to ryan collins

Ryan Goodbye

I always tried to keep dreaming, that one day I'd be with you,
and you'd want to be with me to, I couldnt count how many
tear's I shed, I held on to the memorie of laying with you in
bed, now I'm watching my smile turn around completly, I 
know I felt for you, and thats why the pain hurt so deeply 
you really knocked me off my feet, with every word and every
smile, that was sweet, but the hurting feeling is so hard to keep, 
but don't worry I'll remember what we shared, and I'll keep 
telling myself you really cared, and when I let you go this time 
it'll be worse when I sie, because this time I'm really saying 
ryan goodbye, I wont try to fool you, I'm really letting go this time 
I swear it's not a lie, so ryan goodbye,  I'm not going to beg you
to be with me, bacause I can see it's not what you want to do,
and I'm not going to try to convience you, it's not something I
should have to ask you to do, and tonight when I lay down to sleep, 
the hurt will run deep, and I'll probably cry, because it's gonna hurt saying 
ryan goodbye.

Beautiful Pain

you can say you dont care, but I know you do,
it's because I mean something, I have to, stop
playing around, before I get weak and fall down,
it's you turn to let me know how you feel, I already
let you know the deal, stop keeping it a mystery, will
you just open your eye's and see what it is your doing
to me, your makeing my smile sore, it hurt worse when 
it was my heart you tore,dont hurt me again, let me enjoy
these memorie's I'm livin in,  could you hold me one more
time,  to see the sweet tear's I  cried, your not easy to forget,
I've tried,I liked all the thing's you told me,even though you lied,
& can you tell me what we shared wasnt real, let me touch your
heart without any word's you can feel what I feel.

Could It Be

could it be any worse, knowing I loved you first
could it be any worse, is this love or a curse, so tell 
me could it be any worse, Im getting use to the pain
even though it hurts, could it be anymore insain, to really 
enjoy this pain, and sit their and watch my emotions drain, I
think of you when I see the rain, could it be anymore insain, to
look at you and thinik, what ashame, I guess Im to wild to tame,
its not my fault, your the one to blame, could it be any sadder, if you saw             
me crying would you ask, whats the matter, and could it be any better, I was 
hopeing you'd be my shelter,when you were with your ex, did you think of me 
when you felt her.
