Never Would Have Thought

When I first met you I never would have thought,
That we would end up together,
I never would have thought,
That I would be sitting here wrapped in your arms,
I never would have thought,
That I would fall in love with you.

I Know It Was Not a Dream

I know of magic unicorns and fire breathing dragons,
They all live in a magical place that only I can see,
I enter the land and climb onto a unicorn the color of gold,
The unicorn gallops as I hold on tight to its long and flowing mane,
It stops right by a sparkling pond and slowly takes a drink,
I slowly get down off its back and pet its silky head,
A fairy appears by my ear and softly whispers a poem,
I smile softly as I listen to her sweet little voice,
The fairy then quickly disappears without saying her goodbyes,
I go back to the unicorn with a twinkle in my eye,
The moon glows bright as I get back on and we ride into the night,
Twinkling stars fill the sky and the dragons soar around,
The golden unicorn bows so that I may now get off,
As my feet touch the ground I stare into the night sky,
I turn to the unicorn and say goodbye for now I must go back,
Sounds of dragons singing come from everyway,
It seems there singing just for me and no one else can hear,
I smile up into the sky and wish that I could stay,
But alas I must go home and see my family,
I will come back another day so please do not dispair,
As I exit the land a bright light appears and I clinch my eyes,
When I finally open my eyes it seems I am in my bed,
Could it be that it was all a dream?,
I think to myself and silently hope that it was not a dream,
I look outside and there I find a bright sparkle in our tree,
I put on clothes and go outside to see what the thing is,
I climb the tree and look around for the sparkle that I had seen,
When I finally find the sparkle there I take it in my hands,
'Tis part of a unicorns golden mane and it is shining in the sun,
I now know that it was not just a pleasent a dream,
I climb back down and go back into the house,
I go into my room and shut the door for this is a secret,
I put the golden mane into a box and put it on my desk,
I sit back down on my bed and look around my room,
I'll be happy from now on for I know it was not a dream.

Lonesome

Longing for someone to hold me
Only needing warmth
Never being loved
Everyday is a nightmare
Sometimes I wish I were dead
Obviously no one will ever love me
Maybe I should just run away
Each day passes and I am always alone

Alone Again

Alone Again 

I sit in this empty room, 
The dark shadows dance around me, 
This room is filled with saddness and gloom, 
The wind outside blows through the tree, 
Its seems that I'm alone again 

The rain starts to pour down, 
I walk outside into the street, 
I look up at the sky and wish to drown, 
The water rushes over my feet, 
I know that I'm alone again 

Tears fill my eyes as I look at the night sky,
I start to wish that someone would end my pain,
I stand in the rain and I let out a sigh,
I fall to the ground as I call myself insane,
Why must I be alone again?

Headlights appear before me, 
My body tightens as I feel the pain, 
It seems that someone has answered my plea, 
I feel like a dog finally off its chain, 
Now I'll never be alone again.

Fluttering

Everytime I hear your soft voice,
It's like hundreds of moths are fluttering around inside of me,
I have felt this so many times before,
And each time I lost a piece of my heart,
Yet I still love the tingling feeling deep inside

Love & Death

I finally began to trust again so I gave my heart away,
How was I to know that it would get torn apart again,
Love betrayed me once again and cast me to the shadows,
It seems love has skipped right over me like I am not even there,
I feel like i'm stuck within a nightmare and there is no escape,
I wish someone would wake me from my ever lasting slumber,
If I am asleep then why do I still feel pain, 
Maybe this is just my life and I am just unseen,
I feel so cold and so lonely and now i know what I must do,
If life will not accept me then I shall turn to death,
Maybe there I will be seen and will no longer be alone,
I pick up the shimmering blade and hold it in my hand,
Tears still stream right down my face and land upon the floor,
I bring the blade up to my chest and close my eyes tight,
I thrust the blade into my heart and the tears all go away,
Crimson blood pours out upon the floor as I lay awaiting death,
Finally death comes for me and everything turns black,
I am not afraid or scared at all for now I'm not alone,
I will never return to earth for this is my new home.

Hatred of Myself

I sit in my dark attic room on the dusty floor,
I take a knife in my hand and go across my arm,
Sounds come from the stairway as I watch the blood fall,
I quickly try to hide the knife and get up on my bed,
My mother walks in and she hands me a book and then she leaves the room,
I wipe off my arm and look at the book to see what is says,
It is a book about depression and how to cope,
I throw the book and hit the wall with my fist,
How did she find out and why does she care about what I do,
I get out the knife and I start to cry for now it is the end,
I take the knife and thrust into my chest,
Crimson regret flows onto the floor as I think about my past,
Betrayal and hatred is my past and my future holds the same,
My eyes close and I take my last breath as I leave this world for good,
Hatred of myself still lives though I have passed away.
