No One Knows

i try so hard to be happy
just to smile with pride
but something inside me keeps holding me down
i fight and fight everyday, kicking and screaming, stressing myself out
but who KNOWS, who cares, NO ONE sees the pain i go thru, NO ONE
it's become a habit just to be mad all the time
i can't smile, my heart is in pain
bleeding the blood of murder
disasters all around me but NO ONE to hold and protect me
the devil attacks me from every side each and everyday
it hurts so bad, and it's killin me inside
but NO ONE KNOWS, NO ONE understands

Earth

The earth is changing
Life begins and then it ends
And begins again

Never stops to think
About what is going on
It doesn't waste time

Moving like a train
To fast to grasp and hold on
Catch it if you can

My Favorite Thing

Writing is my favorite thing
It is powerful, expressive, and calming
It's like a nice summer breeze, that blows through my hair
Writing is a talented technique to tell one's feelings
It has a sweet smell of mint chocolate candy that melts in your mouth
It feels like love from all of your family and friends
It looks like a beautiful rainbow after a rainy day
It sounds like a mockingbird singing so peacefully in the trees
Writing tells a story, cries with you, and holds you in the night
Writing is the key to expression
I'm thankful for writing because I can put the pencil to the paper and let my 
thoughts carry me away.

Untitled

Look into my eyes and tell me what do you see
Do you see the beauty within, the beauty of you and me
Tell me can you see my spirit flying throughout your life
Maybe see me walking down the aisle, eventually to become your wife
Tell me what you want from me, what you want me to be
Anything you may need from me I can always guarantee

In Loving Memory of Taleah

It’s hard to believe that you’re actually gone
Seems just a while ago we all went out to eat
We all had fun and were surrounded by family
Everyone smiling and laughing and enjoying life
But who knew that a while later you would be gone
No one really expected this or knew when you would depart from this life
We all should be rejoicing instead of mourning knowing that Taleah is at ease
The bible says “I am not alone, because the Father is with me”.
So we all can rest assure that she is doing a whole lot better
While Taleah was here on earth her spirit seemed so high
She didn’t complain, at least I didn’t see it
And she maintained her faith although things were being thrown at her from left 
and right
Even when in pain she fought it out like a child of God
Never letting the Devil wear her down
All he wanted to do was stress her out and make her feel worse
But we can all laugh in his face because we know that he lost the battle and God 
won
She leaves behind two beautiful daughters, but they are in good hands
God will continue to watch over them every night just as he did before
We miss her and love her very much
And believe that God has so much in store for her
REST IN PEACE TALEAH AUSTIN!!!

To Love

to love is so hard to do especially when the one i love is you
i try so hard to maintain the faith
but everytime i open up my heart gets broken
to love is the best thing to do especially when the one i love is you
i tell myself all the time
that forever and always you'll be mine
but i can't stand the fact that you love someone else
i tell you she's not the one, i tell you i'm the one
not once, but twice do you ignore my feelings
brush them away to never be felt again
you dont seem to care that i love you so
nor do you take the time to examine my heart, my soul, the feelings i have
give me a chance to prove myself to you, give me a chance to show you that i 
love you really i do
from the soul of my heart i declare this to you
that who i am is not complete unless, in my life you are

My Love

my love for you exceeds life's limits
reaching higher than the clouds, embracing the heavens
soaring with beautiful wings of elegance and grace
extending with the sun rays of the sun and smiling so brightly upon the world
my love for you joins the angels in the heavens and sing a wonderful song
spreading entirely over the earth endulging others in its glory
my love for you so boldy goes into the deepest darkess realms of the sea
illuminating every dark corner and bringing out all of the true beauty within
my love for you hurts so bad, yet it feels so good
it never dies and never does it get exhausted
it's always quenched by your love for me
