Life is no charming fairytale
Even on easiest days
Most blessed person you know
Has demons to keep at bay
There's no such thing as perfect
Beauty eventually will all decay
The only hope we have is to hang on
Find happiness within the disarray
And there is no such thing as happily ever after
I see myself through silent eyes
As I use my pen to stifle tears
Forever smiling through the sorrow
My sadness worse than it appears
Pieces of me splintering slow
Dreams wilting like autumn leaves
Falling headfirst
Tumbling down
Unable to find a decent reprieve
Beneath the shadows cloaking my mind
Where words collide like crashing rain
Hope begins flowing like a small stream of water
And for a moment I think
"Someday I will conquer this pain"

ok okay
Sometimes I find it hard to speak
As if the words had left my mind
Lost in a gaze
While our eyes meet
All I want is to hold your hand
And kiss you on your cheek
Sometimes this world is cruel and mean
It makes it hard to dream
But when I see you from afar
I remember what life means
Look deep inside yourself
Look in your heart
See what is really there
Feel what is there

Trust yourself
Always
Follow your path
Spin up your dreams

Look deep inside yourself
For the answers
You are seeking
They are there

When in doubt
Trust yourself
Follow your destiny
Never doubt
Through it all
You will always persevere

When in doubt
Trust yourself
Follow your heart
Follow your dreams
Reach for the stars

I only write,
when
I am in love
or
Falling apart.

I am sure by now
Heaven finds my voice all too familiar
When you are sad
Get up and look at the sun
When you are crying
Get up and look at the stars
When you are hurting
Get up and look at mother nature
When you can't go on
Get up and remember those that went before you
When you want to give up
Get up
Remember you have your own destiny
You are not done

Believe

Desperate for attention
I fear to be alone.
Craving your affection.
I know it's dumb but I truly believe
Even after all this time I'm still still so naive
To think we were destined to be together
Yet hope lingers on the word "forever"
You see in my eyes you're always the one
Even after you informed me your attraction  was done
So you can tell me you no longer feel the same way
But the stubborn love in my heart is here to stay
I try to move on and find someone new
But for some reason can't get over you
I will never stop cherishing the memories shared
I lie to myself and pretend that you cared
I'm not sure what created the chasm between
I guess in reality you weren't as happy as you made it seem
I was deluded by fear and desperation
Blind to your dwindling captivation
Part of me wishes that you would miss us like me
Because deep down I know we were meant to be
