Mirroring the shades of me
I look into the mirror and
Seeing not only a reflection of myself,
This world or the world daring me to enter
But the person I use to be
The one I'm afraid to be again
The person who would tear your heart apart
And not care
The person that didn't take her education seriously
The type of person that wanted to do
What she wanted to do
I see the person I am
Someone who helps you
No matter what
Even if I'm the one getting kicked
The senior in high school getting ready for graduation
Hovering over the next level of my life
But trying to find a way up out of the middle of the ocean
Everyone calls life in an education box
This is where I will discover

Never Thought It Could Be Like This
Never thought it could be like this
this churning in my stomach
the beating of a thousand bird wings
in my heart
I never thought it could be quite like this
softly playing my part
like it was a work of art
but really not knowing what to do
with this glorious gift of mine
you
a first kiss
like stars and rain dropping from the sky
you never said you were going to be there
to hold me as I cried
presents
presents from you is what I need
not showing me how to be
not treating me like a child
just treating me as me

Who is She?
Who is this girl?
Behind the mirror looking back at me.
Do I know, could I get to know,
Do I want to know her?
She looks like me.
My eyes, nose, ears, mouth,
But she doesn’t smile and,
My smile spreads for miles.
I know exactly what I want.
She could never know.
I am outgoing and hardly shy.
She wishes she could be like that but,
Is afraid to step out of her comfort zone,
Thinking someone will laugh.
I don’t care what others say.

Troy
I’ve been counting down the days to
see the shoeing of my beautiful horse
bandit
he has bad feet because
he was run hard in barrel racing
and put away wet
by the people who owned him before I did
I was taking my last ride on him
for the week
or that’s what I thought
at 3pm troy drove up
I told him all the angles he needed to shoe
my baby
I let him be and do his thing
I came back a hour latter see how he was doing
and to offer some water
cause of
the kind hearted person I am
he said I may have to stay off bandit for a while
I didn’t think that meant

Days Without You
Waking up with tears in my eyes
Knowing I may never see you again
Is like someone is stabbing me in my heart
And twisting the knife until it comes out
I know you don’t think of me
Cause you are not like that
Your too matcher for that
But I can’t to get you off my mind
It’s not fair that you can do it and
Then act like nothing happened at all
I feel like I'm being pulled apart
And you’re just fine
Or do you think of me no
No that’s what I want
And it's my entire fault
That I can’t stop thinking about you
I'm just a tramp
That can’t pass up an opportunity to get some

Their Innocents
shay is so beautiful
shay is so awesome
shay is so funny
shay is this shay is that
that is how him going on and on bout her starts
all I do is sit back smile and know
as his eyes float into the starry sky
his mind is wondering forty miles away
where her pretty head lays down to rest
wishing she was with him
only if he knew she was wishing he was with her
she wonders if he knows he is the only thing she thinks about
when she lays her head down to only dream of him
he lays and wonders if she knows
she is the only thing he thinks about
as he lays his head down
only to end up dreaming of her once again
only if they both knew that the desire
to be with each other

You Come In
running and running
going through life at full speed
can be hard at times sometimes
I want someone to take the wheel away from me
take my keys away from me
drive for me for a while
or help me drive
some times I want to give up
sometimes I want to quit
sometimes I want to end it all with one slit with the wrist
I need someone to take the blade out of my head
and replace it with roses
sometimes I feel like my sickness wont go away
I need someone to take care of me
I need someone to put up with my shit
I need someone who will go out of there way to make me smile
I need someone to give me the energy to carry on
when I think all hope is lost

I Found In Him
I should be calling you back
Going to your house
Stopping you
Tears should be rolling down my face
I don’t know why
I'm not falling apart
From the thought of losing you
But thinking about not being with you
Is not killing me
I feel bad
That I don’t feel bad
The only thing I feel bad for is you cause
You’ll never be anything with out me
Maybe it's just because I've cried one two many tears
I'm tired of pretending that my heart is breaking
I could let my self be angry over wasted time
I could be sad about just throwing love away
Or I almost wish that my heart was breaking
But I can’t lie

Another Number
I don’t wanna be another number!
Some disabled teen,
Who made the choice trying in school,
Just wasn’t her thing.
Because she couldn’t do it,
The world is just too mean.
When she realizes that reality has fallen short,
And so have many of her hopes and dreams,
Its too late she’s already messed it up for herself.
I don’t wanna be another number!
Some pregnant girl who meets this great guy,
Then gave sex a little try,
She was only 16 but it felt so right,
She thought they’d be together,
For more then just one week.
I don’t wanna be another number!
Some kid hooked on meth,

My Three Wishes
I wish I wish I wish
we wish on our birth day
we wish when we brake the wish bone on thanksgiving day
we wish when we see a shooting star
that's when I feel like I can talk to you
when I'm under a blanket of stars shining so brightly along with the moon
that has your face lightly sketched on the side facing me
it's almost as if your watching over me
I wish I wish I wish
all my wishes would have to do with the need to hear your voice
saying I love you Becky-Becky Ann
and I love you Ethan boy
the need to see your face
smiling sweetly and comforting me to a deeper level
that takes all the stress
and all my worries away and locks them away
for that moment in time they all explode from my body
to feel the last minute hugs and kisses
