"FB"

What an addiction you have created
You must be so proud
Millions and millions of people
In this social crowd..
You never stopped to think
What each of us might feel
another changed relationship status
Before we’ve had time to heal
Oh good! he’s flirting for all the world to see
My heart is breaking with pain
How can this be?
And yet another flirt comes through the feed
And still no one stops to think
Blinded by the greed
And one girl is visibly attacking another
Who backs away with fright
Yet she just keeps picking
This same scary fight
She’s scared to go to school
Afraid to go to work
That’s the effect of the online words
Of such a hateful jerk
Let’s not forget the pictures
Of those that share their lives
Pictures of married husbands
Cheating on their wives
And did you know that Suzie was pregnant?
Well I’m sure you do now
It’s become an open discussion
That, for him, she dropped trow
I’m sure she’s not proud
And I’ll bet she knows this too
That she’s entered a life of pain
So who the HELL are you?
I fail to see the good
That comes from all the pain
So, other than your Money
Mr. Zuckerberg
What the hell’s the gain?

Ugh!


I don’t stare at the phone anymore
Hoping you might call
I don’t hear your footsteps
Walking down my hall

I can’t feel you breath
I can’t really remember your touch
But this I DO still remember
That I loved you SO much

I don’t listen for the cars outside
And think you came to visit
I don’t have the HOPE to think it’s real
Because it just isn’t, is it?

I don’t look at this screen
And wait for an e-mail with your name
It hasn’t happen so for
So I assume today will be the same

I guess this is life now
Without you in my heart
I guess this is me trying
To have MY brand new start

One thing I know for sure
And I’ll die with this being true
I won’t cry or beg anymore
Because I don’t have you

Sure I go through times
And phases where I think
I should TRY once more
To fix this broken link

But ANY relationship takes two
I can’t do all the work
So if you EVER meant ANY of it
Stop being such a jerk

Make a call please
Or send me a simple text
I promise that you won’t regret
What would happen next.

"Little Eyes"

The mirror is just your reflection
While I see inside you
You see what’s on the surface
But why, oh why, can’t you look deeper inside yourself?

Stands before me, a man, mysterious and quiet
Gorgeous, and tall
So serene, and calm
The world doesn’t shake your stance
Standing there, still, and strong through it all

You’ve weathered so much in this world so cruel and cold
You’ve weathered it alone…
Weren’t you scared?
Were you afraid or nervous?

Acceptance is what it seems your in search of,
You are wondering where you fit
Well maybe, just maybe
Right here, with me, is it.

I see your gorgeous, but, oh so little eyes
They speak volumes to me
And I’m constantly in search of ALL
There is to you.

You sing of the hurts and trials
That have come to pass in your life
But you still feel as though NO ONE
Gets it, or understands your strife.

I’m not telling you that I can always understand
Or that I’ll always feel the same, my love,
But I AM telling you, with certainty,
That you will NEVER be alone again.

NEVER is a strong word
And one that I mean with all my soul
Just try me, babe, and you’ll see
I’ll love you, and make you whole

Oh little eyes, that see only so much
Why don’t you look a little deeper
My gorgeous man, just please..
Look a little deeper..  

I see you, my love
I really, deeply see who you are
And I’m in awe
At your strength, my shining star

Take a step back and see what I see
My gorgeous man,
See what I see
And you’ll be in love with you

Does what’s looking back from your mirror
Seem a bit more pleasing?
It should, baby boy,
Because I’m not just appeasing

Your gorgeous outside and in
You are MY man
And I’m so lucky, and thankful
My gorgeous, little eyes, who see only so much…

Open them brighter and see a little more
There’s so much more to you
Than you let yourself believe..

Let me see.
Let yourself see
Let everyone see….

"Father Eve"

So here I am, fighting back tears because of the flame that I could always see with you
Even through glassy teared eyes I could see it flickering.
I never let go of the flame that I saw within you
I always knew that there was more…

It’s different now though, the flame doesn’t burn anymore
Last night, stomped that flame to the ground
The ashes are barely visible,
And I just cling to what’s closest for embrace

Is there anyway to spark that flame again?
I don’t think so
Is there anyway to watch it burn?
I’ve given up

I should call you Eve, as you drank the forbidden Drink
What would be your eternal price?
Because to me, dear old friend
It seems that I get to pay the price for your mistakes

It’s different now though, I will pick myself up
Tough love like you’ve never seen or known before
I’ll make a life all my own
Because it’s too late for us

Is there any way to spark that flame again?
I don’t think so.
Is there any way to watch it burn?
I’ve given up.

You see me through the distance
And you KNOW I will succeed
You’ll hear about me from time to time
And you’ll KNOW that I succeeded
I don’t need you anymore, and I don’t have to hold on
Strap yourself in and watch the show
Because THIS GIRL WILL SUCCEED
Without you…. I must go on…

Is there any way to spark that flame again?
Only you can know
Is there any way to watch it burn?
That flame is the flame of hope..
AND-I can smell only the smoke…

"us"

I’m shaking
My heart is thumping hard, and loud
I can’t think clearly
I’m losing control
I’m light headed, and my vision is blurry
I’m tired but yet can’t sleep
Restlessness in full force
Hunger, yet, nausea too
I can think of only one cure
And that is you..
So I cry out to you and beg you to care
But instead you left me all alone there
No Knife could cut so deep
As you leaving me there to weep
So I pick myself up and learn to be strong
I don’t know what or how
To carry on
In friends I find comfort. Power, and strength
But you find judgment in the company I keep
So what am I to do?
Because in your eyes I always fail
You made all these choices
Yet, somehow, you prevail
The battle of spirits at war once again
I should have known
That yours would win.
