A cool atumn breeze
like the kiss of the night
how I wish you were here
to hold me tonight
You're arms around me
ever so tight
I can promise you,
everything would be *alright

you ask me why I left
as if I had abandon you
when the truth is
you had abandon me

day in and day out
I was there,
for each and everyone of you
and I can't say I regret it

But with all the drama
silently brewing strong
I slowly got cut out
of what I thought was part of my life

I just couldn't bear it anymore
remember, this is poetry, nothing more
but when it all comes down too it
I never abandon you
I just got strong

I can't look out for everyone anymore
I'm not the person you need
you've grown up, maybe grown apart

Turns out I grew up too,
I needed a place to spread my wings
a fresh start
some new faces
somewhere where I can speak.

read it carefully,
don't hate.

paint a picture of your perfect self
put it high upon the pedestal
that's who you are
that's who you want to be
but this is the person
I never see.
the person you see in the mirror
is not the one that stands infront of me
the person in the mirror is kind, sincere,
the person I see cries a river from a word
the person in the mirror,
and the one standing here
should have a chat,
meet in the middle
cause i'm tired of coming out black and blue
over a simple word

miles are between us

but I feel so close to you
almost like you're here
holding me close
letting me know just how close you really are

your smile is infectious
it makes me feel warm from my head to my toes
even on the coldest nights
where I can't even feel my toes

your eyes are deep
they make me feel like a single moment
could last forever
just like I dream it could

but we're miles apart
you're not here
I can't see your smile,
feel your touch
or stare into your eyes

I wish you were a liquid
I could extract you from my veins
and never have to see
your pretty face again

or if you were a song
stuck so deeply in my head
I would just have to play
a different song instead

maybe a scent
stuck deep within my nose
I'd could just go outside
and smell a garden rose

even a dream
had deep within the night
I would just wake myself up
out of sheer fright

but sadly you're a scar
cast deep upon my heart
growing deeper
as we stay apart

sometimes we don't agree
but you know you're forever stuck with me

we'll sit in our carboard boxes
race around the block
pretend we're super heros
forever on the clock

All of a sudden we've grown up
getting our nails done downtown
the best days of our lives,
silently flying by

we've laughed through the best times
and we survived the worst
from late nights to early mornings
from carboard boxes to pedicures

sometimes we don't agree
but you know you're forever stuck with me
this is dedicated to my best friend, Shanna Howse
who I love and missed dearly (:

who are you?
that's one question I can't seem to answer,
I know who you were
my best friend
you cared
you weren't so ignorant
not so sarcastic
someone I could talk to
someone I cared about
now it's different
I don't know you like I used to
and by the way you're acting
you obviously forget who I am,
but one day
that will be okay
because i'm slowly forgetting who you were
and I have no intention of finding out
who you are now
goodbye
good luck.
