she whispers into the night
on her lips a soft kiss
a dream already dreamt
a pain already felt
the words on her lips
are i'll find you in this bliss
one day we are together
but soon it will be all of this
her heart lets out a single throb
and then she ends this miss
a dream so broken yet
but one day she tells herself
just one day more

he is blue like a summer sky
soft warm happy
im red like the blood of an animal
broken cold damaged
but together we are purple like lavender petals
light cool loving

my head gets lost sometimes
inside of itself
the colors mesh together
the voices blur
andi look at my life
from the passenger seat

have you ever met someone
who at first glance
your not attracted to
but when you talk
and with every word
every smile
every laugh
they become more beautiful
until you can't believe
there was a moment
they didn't think they were

i sit in a room
with a parent i barely know
addicted to the pills
scent of cigarette
you promise you will come
but then a minute before
you have some crazy excuse
they say the high is fun
im not laugh am i
but you didn't care
you were to busy
popping your pills
but you left us behind  
those pills got you
didn't they
cause you cant stop
popping your pills

some people say
that im like a
R I V E R
they say like a river
im always
R U N N I N G
whether it be from my problems
or simply to get
A W A Y
but i think that maybe
i can stay with you
F O R E V E R

Do not get overwhelmed
If you get overwhelmed you cry
2.dont cry infront of them
They will think your weak
3. Learn to fake smile
They don't care about your real emotions
4. Don't vent to anyone
Our family is perfect
5. Never allow someone to think less
Defend us at all costs except our name
6. If u lie don't get caught
We all have to at some point be smart
7. Never answer questions straight forward
We aren't to be open books
8. Children are seen
But never heard
9. If you brake any rules
You are no longer family we are exclusive

faster and faster
don't trip up
don't slow down
don't slip up

roots pop up
and weave through
dont catch your foot
or you will fall too

dont look back
it will only slow you down
dont give up
though your heart pounds hard

it is sad
that some people
aren't waiting for
there happy
ending anymore
there just waiting
for the end

save yourself from
the pain i caused
save yourself from
the broken pieces
save yourself from
the mess i create
save yourself from
the things i have done
save yourself from
the person i have become
save yourself from
the walls i build to high

here i sit
at a table of wood
listening to you
your lectures long
and i don't learn
my eyes move around the room
trying to make out
the reason i need to know
things like
writing essays about short stories
how to use a 3D printer
and algebra
yet you cant teach
taxes
money saving
and how to live in our world
these are skills i found i need
but you cant prepare us

sit quietly
put your hand down
no question is dumb
except that one
don't look at that
focus on me
your opinion is wrong
who told you that
you were aloud to
have an
dont talk back to me
if you defend yourself
you will be suspended
don't answer when i ask questions
keep your thoughts to yourself
you know nothing
this is my subject to teach
don't act like you know the answers
it doesn't matter if
you already know this
don't work ahead
