Monday starts the week
Wake up early, barely sleep
Class after class drags on
Then at last you go home
What awaits you tomorrow is a mystery
Today is tomorrow's history
If today was hell let's make tomorrow better
Smile and write yourself a letter
Remember to laugh
And not dwell in the past
Because only you can make this Monday better than the last.

I fell in love with you today
I barely even know your name
They say never to fall in love with a poet,
But I'm in love and I know it
Your words immediately capture my soul
For I know your heart is gold
They say actions speak louder than words
But I say that's for the birds.

(Do you) know what you mean to me
I don't know how to explain it, you just make me (feel) happy
Things aren't (the same) as they used to be
(I) don't know what to do
So I'll just sit here and (hope)
I'll wait  for you to make the first move (so) I don't have to
(but) you won't do it
(if) I had the courage
(not) like a mouse
(that's) so weak
I would have told you
but I don't and that's (okay) ,okay?

it’s not that you give me butterflies
cause that’s just not quite it
i don’t believe in butterflies anymore
they pass away too fast
don’t have a word
trying to explain
searching my brain
i’m drawing a blank
it’s not like we talk “Cute” to each other
that’s just not quite it
it’s like we’re best friends
talking till the day ends
it’s weird how suddenly
you became important to me
you went from “not-excactly-nothing”
to “someone-who-means-something”
this isn’t really cheesy
which may not be as pleasing
but it’s just how i’m feeling
i don’t know what that means in all honesty
i don’t know what you think of me
i don’t know if i mean anything
i don’t know who i am to you
why does any of that matter?
i guess I just like you
whatever that means
and if you don’t like me back
it’s still cool beans
i just really enjoy knowing you
and this is my way of showing you
talking to you brightens my day
you bring a smile to my face
i hope that somehow
i make your days better
that i somehow help your endeavor
i don’t want to say you’re different
don’t want to jinx myself
but somehow i feel different
it’s really bizarre
i don’t even know what i mean
i can only hope that you do
its not giddy infatuation
i just really like you

I just really want to know
Do you think of me at all?
Because I dream about you all the time
You're always lingering in my mind

I actually really miss you
though I wouldn't dare to say
I just really wish I knew
If you felt the same way

I ramble on about this
but i haven't yet told you a thing
holding you tight would be like bliss
but to the unknown I cling

You don't know how badly
I want to spill my guts
I would tell you gladly
but I stumble over words like a klutz.

In the cargo its cramped and small
People range from short to tall
the smell of death evades the air
Nazis loading people with seeming-less care

Separation,Deprivation
Wheels turning, stomachs churning
the taste of fear,sweat and tears
What I have lived for through countless time.

Mortifying sights to see
family memories
ringing in my bleeding ears
Triggering my deepest fears

Sun rays shining through barbed wires
too much time spent in death cars
when will i escape this hell
captivating feelings held

Trapped and caged like a jailbird
Loaded and treated worse than a cattle heard
intense heat keeps us beat
disease and death among me creeps

Bodies close
too close for comfort
but that is least of my worries

Where is this place they are taking me
will I survive or will they break me
emaciated,hunger kills
I'm still alive 'cause my strong will

Sweat dripping down my cheek
the thirst and hunger turn me weak
dust and dirt caked upon us all
the horrendous taste of death still  crawls.
