Elevator
I can't change the past for no one has found the rewind button yet.
I can't take back my pain or catch myself from falling again.
For the net to catch myself before isn't there,
But I can change what I fall into and what button I press.
For the press of one button can change everything.
So lets see what the up button will do.
I may get stuck for a while or fall to the floor due to a sudden stop,
But this time the button is up and I will be falling into a net of hope.

Wash
Sand slowly sinks between your toes as you walk down to the water.
You hear the sound of the waves moving back and forth as you get closer.
You feel the water hitting your feet as the tide goes up and down.
The water feels refreshing like you are being washed away of your past and pain.
Each day we are given a new day as we wake up.
So each day refresh yourself and wash away your yesterday.
By saying today is a new day and good things will happen to knock my bad away.

Leaves
Leaves fall down on the ground.
Yellow.
Green.
Brown .
Which ones are the better leaves?
All of them are equal for they are all leaves.
Each leave may have a different shape and color but still not better than the other.
For humans are similar to leaves we may all have different shapes, sizes, and talents.

Battle
It is time to fight.
For the battle has go on too long.
Don't worry I am ready.
For I will have my weapons with me.
No, not a gun or a bow and arrow to kill my enemy,
But with my heart and will to get better.
For I know this battle won't be an easy victory because
The journey to get to this point has been a hard one.

Hidden Beauty
Unveil the curtain that hides your inner self.
Let the world see the beauty within you.
For true beauty is hidden in each and everyone of us.
It is like a gift on Christmas day.
We don't know what we will get until we open it up.
Open your gift and let your beauty be shown.
For somethings can be bad in life but have a beautiful covering.
So unveil the curtain now and let us see your true beauty.
For a light will then shine brightly from your heart announcing a great arrival.

Lucky Charm
You look for the shooting star going across the sky.
You look for that pot of gold maybe at the end of a rainbow.
You haven't found it yet so you give up hope.
Then out of no where a star comes out of nowhere.
It isn't like most stars because it is filled with so many things.
So you create a circle for the star to let out its awesomeness.
Each day your days get better as the star shows off its charms

Charge
So I am going to hop on my own train and get it moving.
For at the end of the day I am the judge of my own life.
Whether to sentence myself to a night of negativity or let go of the chains and be free.
For this decision haunts my mind every night but tonight I will pound the gavel down for I have made a descision.
Tonight I am going to take off the chains.
For I have put myself through enough.
Time to take charge and knock this negativity down.
Time to start being happy and take charge of my own life.

Surprise
It may seem dark now but you are in for a surprise.
Soon it will be light again to push all the darkness away.
So stay put and you will get through it.
For things will get better.
For when the moon leaves the sun will come creating light.
So smile for your light will rise soon.
The pain and heartache is over and now the goodness will come.

Special
Talk.
For the world wants to hear you.
Open your eyes.
For the world wants to see you.
Now take off that extra layer and show me your true colors.
For I have been waiting to see your true self ever since you came into my presence.
For you are special no matter what people say or what you think.

Nervous
You wait and wait like a kid waiting to open a present.
Your stomach fills with butterflies waiting to flutter.
When will it happen?
For you are getting nervous and tired of the fluttering.
The fluttering seems to get louder and you start getting out of control.
Then all of a sudden the fluttering stops then starts again.
You realize you can't control it like you can't control the sun rising and going down each day.
So instead relax and go with the flow.
