Hopelessly In Love

I can hear it in her voice
I can see it in that look
She doesn't understand it yet
She might not figure it out
Until its too late
The way she smiles
When your around
How happy she becomes
The way she almost glows
She fallen hopelessly in love
And you can't see it either
Everyone else can
Why are you so blind?

Smiling Facade

Even though it hurts
Even though I don't want to

I will try to be nice

It only for someone I love
Only because he's dear to me

I will try to ignore
I will try to subdue

My anger

I have not forgiven you
I honestly don't know if I ever will

But I will be happy
Because he needs happiness

I will wear a smile

Twilight Fireflies

Fireflies
Little tiny fires in the sky
Spin and twirl
In the silvery light of the moon

Little travelers
Carrying their lights
Through out the dark
Of the night

Little lighters
Dance with wings
Floating on
The cool night air

Ever so slowly
My little lights of fire
Go back home
Only to come out at

Broken Wings

Broken wings
Broken wings
Twirls in ballroom gowns
Echos of glory
And reminders of things lost

Broken wings
Broken wings
Only feet to help carry on now
A thousand voices
Singing the same song

Broken wings
Broken wings
Feathers litter the ground
Where the proud used to stand
Where only broken wings remain

Slowly Gone

The rose
Slowly droops

It's petals
Falling to the ground

Slowly turning black
Slowly dying

Every moment
The rose was alive

Fades into
Nothingness

Everything it
Was

Gone

A Storm Is Gathering

The calm before the break
A building electricity in the air

The howling wind is restless
Like a predator pacing a cage

Barely contained
It waits

Biding its time before
It finally strikes

The clouds are
Gathering 'round

Encircling with
An iron grip

The smell of rain
Permeates everything

A Shooting Star

A shooting star
Makes it's way across the sky
A traveler in the placid night

Upon that star
Lay a million wishes
Waiting to become true

We hope
It will grant our wish
Like a genie in a bottle

We wish
And wish upon that
Incandescent ball of glowing dreams

All though
It's futile we still
Wish and hope and dream

She's Breakable

She's breakable
She's fragile
Will you catch her if she falls?
Better watch what you say
She takes things the hard way
She's breakable
She's fragile
Will you keep her all togeather?
The wind will blow her away
If she thinks doesn't you want her to stay
She's breakable
She's fragile
Will you keep her heart from pain?

Writer's Block

Uninspired
Lacking feeling
Devoid of emotion
Writer's Block
Nothing sparking desire
Nothing interesting
I need something new
Tired of words about love
Tired of words about life
Reaching for something
That always escapes my grasp
I need something to make me happy
To destroy my Writer's Block
For now I remain uninspired

Hanging Over The Cradle

Hanging over the cradle
Are three little stars
One for night
One for day
And one for twilight

Simple little lullabies
Play on as they move
Round and round in a circle
The tiny stars
Dance and spin

Slowly melodies play
Like a child's jewelry box
Filled with glittery trinkets
Like beautiful stars
Out in the night sky
