I Can Be Stronger

I can hear them
I can see them
I can feel them
I can understand them
One day they will hear me
Maybe they wont hear me 
Maybe they wont understand me
Maybe they wont feel the pain they put me through
But i will be free
One day i will be free
Until then
I can stand tall
I can resist the pain
I can  walk away
I can cover my ears
Until then
I can be alone

Give Me Life

i am not like him
i am not like her
i am not like you
i am different 
i want a life
a life unlike anything you ever had
a free life
an independent life
a life without solitude
a life with little pain
but not no pain at all
we need pain we need heartache
i need you
but you can't need me
if you let go we can live
let me live
let me be me
let me be different
let me share success
or maybe you need time
i can give you time
i will give you time
but i cant give you forever
i am not like him
i am not like her
i am not like you
don't charactorize me like any of them
don't charactorize me like you
i don't hate you
i don't hate any of you
but i'm scared
a fear you can never understand
but i can get through it
i can get through anything
but i need your help
just don't yell
don't compare me to anybody
understand me or ask
don't make me feel stupid
tell me im smart but give me advise
don't tell me i'm wrong all the time
tell me what i can do better
just help me 
tell me i can do anything 
let me be me

I Saw It All

i was there,
i saw it all,
i saw my dog,
and i saw the knife.
i saw the man
and i saw his smirk.
then i saw the boiling water,
and i saw the the crowd.
i heard the yelp. 
i heard the cry.
i heard the man's laughter,
and i heard a sigh.
i saw the knife digging in.
and i heard the dog plead again.
that is my dog that is laying their,
and its still alive,
but his fur is over there.
its alive! Its still alive!
its' ears are gone,
and so is its' tail.
why?! How?! can a man be so cruel.
i saw its' face,
i saw its' eyes,
i saw its' body, 
and i heard its' cries.
its' eyes are blinking!
Its' feet are moving! 
its' still alive! 
that's my dog! 
that's my dog!
Its a block of meat no fur is left,
but its still alive.
i saw the man lift it up.
i saw the tears rolling down my dogs face.
i saw its body splash in the boiling pot.
then i heard the last yelp.
how could anybody be so cruel.
that was my dog.
it had feelings too.

We All Live For a Little While

Tomorrow morning I will get up and get dressed.
 I will eat breakfast then my mother will take me and my brother to school.
 I will arrive at school,
 and take part in my classes. 
I will talk to teachers, 
i will talk to people,
i will smile and laugh,
i will cry and yell,
i will make jokes and i will watch them react. 
I will go home after school. 
I will tell my mother the day went well and i will tell my brothers hello. 
I will walk to my bedroom and place my things down. 
I will clean the kitchen then clean my room.
 I will do laundry and ask my mom what else she would like me to do.
 At night i will go to bed and roll over and close my eyes.
 I will close my eyes and think about the world and breathe.
 I will fall asleep.
 I will fall soundly asleep, and i will never wake up.
 I have never woke up.

I Hurt

i hurt
i hurt really bad
but everybody hurts
but not everybody can understand that
i didn't 
but im glad i do now
it means im not alone
nobody is ever alone
you are not alone
pain is everywhere
but so is love
love is just a pure thing
a thing that takes time 
a thing that takes patience
a thing that is invisable to the eye
a thing unlike pain
but like pain
pain is visible
i can see it everywhere but i didn't
pain is in my heart
pain is in love
im glad im not alone
you should be glad too
but i am alone in silence
im sure there are many alone
but your not
im not
you can't be
nobody can ever be alone

You

you lied to me
you told me you wouldn't leave.
i was trapped in an ally
and you left me to grieve,
you left me!
i had nobody else.
you were the only one i had.
and you left me.

Stop

I wish the world would stop
stop spinning, let us all take a break,
but the world can never stop, only change.
i wish you would stop
stop hurting, stop yelling, stop lying
hurting people doesn't make you better,
yelling will only make people deaf,
and a lie will always come out eventually.
i tried to stop,
stop laughing it off, stop crying, stop living,
but stop isn't what i really wanted.
i wanted change,
but people can't change, 
only the world
people just stop,
they stop for a little while,
then continue,
then stop forever,
and only forever when you die.
