Final Words to an Old Shadow

And when you sit there exhausted
and everything they have said is spinning around your head
and you are feeling dizzy with it all and wish the ground would swallow you up
stand up
be tall

the words they spit are just insecurities of their own
and they wish to drone them on to you
they mask all that they are and hide behind this wall of fear
they wish to impose fear onto you to deter it from themselves
they are nothing more than words and words that they know hurt
stand up
be tall

create strength in the weaknesses
find a reason to carry on standing tall
don't let yourself fall
this is the time of your life
push all the negativity away
it was never meant to be here


believe me
there is always a reason to stay
stick it out, prove em wrong
prove me right
stand up
be tall

Valentines Moment

& if the world is ignorant
& if the pain is strong
& if you can't fight it any more
& if your friends are wrong
& if the sky is always black
& if it always rains
keep holding on so tightly
& I'll save you once again

& if the days just pass you by
& if nothing can ever change
& if you can't hold your head up high
remember I always came

I will be there everyday
I will be your smile
I will be your saviour, in the broken world
I will carry you if you fall
I will stop the tears
I will understand every thought
I will know it all

In your life
In my life
In our life
forever more

I will never leave you
you will be my one
you will be my reason
you will be my world
you are and have and will always be
my heart and more

Family

Lay the foundation
Tell me all of your wisdom
Save some until I am older
Put on my coat and warn me of the cold
Help me with my laces
Wrap me up in your love
Show me to the door
Make sure I open it
Make sure I walk through it
Don't do it for me
Teach me, don't lead me
Show me, don't tell me
Let all of my life be my own
Wrapped up in your manual of life
I will struggle, I will plead for help
Don't be tough but teach me strength
Watch me dust myself off
Watch me make my self
Be proud when I succeed
As You know I will
For you are my foundation
You made the base and I created the pattern
Each day I mold my life into my own shapes
I let people in and push people out and it is all my own doing
My life is my way
My decisions come from my heart
No one can ever tell me
For to try will push me and to push me is to lose me
Respect is higher than any comparable height
The love continues to grow
You are my everything
And I wrote this out to just let you know

Should you ask

Catch me as I fall
See me struggle and help me
Tell me you love me and need me
Stop my tears

Catch me as I stumble
Protect me at night
Hold me tight and never punish me
Don't hate me

When I feel weaker, stand me up
Say you will stick with me
Understand me and love me
Never let me down

If you don't fit, don't try
For we shouldn't have to change
For we are all ourselves
And proud we should be
I will never change nor will I adjust
I will be me for that is all I want to be

Look at all the beauty

Rushed feet pass strangers
Lives so busy
No one even looks at eachother anymore
Traffic jam highways
Queues miles long
No one takes a moment anymore
They all just rush
Push into people
Shrug passed people
Not a word
Just irritated noises
Pissed off undertones
All gotta be somewhere yesterday
Never enough hours in the day
Always somewhere else in our heads
Always tapping words on a screen
Always half listening
Always half remembering
Counting down our days
Wishing away our weeks
Wishing away our lives
Gone too soon
Buried in the earth
Weeds and rain
No one around
Just the sound of traffic screeching past
Someone else is lost
Another life gone
On to the next one
One by one
Life by life
Day by day
...... i dare you to come to a halt
Pull over, stop running
Look around you
Look at all the beauty

Final Moments

Collect your things
Search through the pile on my floor and find whats important
For we aren't anymore
When you leave this time, close the door tight. I don't want you coming back this time
As i open every window and the goose pimples appear on my arms, i let you and your smells float out into the night.

I don't want your apologies as we have heard those all too often and i don't want your tears
I want you to walk head held high like you said you would
See your words were harsh and to forgive i will not
This has become something evil and needs to be cut off
Don't call me over and over and stop with the texts, this is done

So find all your things pick them up quick and walk out that door, shut with a click
Into the night into your life
I am fine
And at least now i know better
