Verse 1:
If only your heart can see me,
Words have become meaningless.
My spirit is drying up.
Will you be there
Even if I lose myself?
Chorus:
Scars were left on that day.
Cold and indifferent words
Made me realize that I'm still a fool
For believing in you.
I depended on you
While you had someone else in mind.
Verse 2:
Even if everything between us changes,
My love for you remains.
Because I'm a person
With whom, love is everything,
Now, throw it away.
Now, I shall say goodbye to us.
Goodbye to our memories.
For, everything was a lie.
Lies everyone believed.
Bridge:
All those lies
You told me
Made me fall for you.
Why am I a fool for love?
Take it all away.
I shall let you go now
Because reality finally set in.
Halloween is for
The ones deceiving
Birthdays come
From us conceiving
Christmas leads
To us receiving
Easter is
For us believing
Wakes are for
The ones we’re grieving
And Funerals are for
The ones, us leaving
BOEMS by JA 89
It is, in the heart
That truth resides
Where caring lives
And sorrow hides
Where love embraces
One and all
And desires breed
Their beckon call
It is, in the heart
You questions pose
Where meaning thrives
And passion grows
Where devotion means
You never lose
Forever with
The one you choose
BOEMS by JA 700
Verse 1:
Etearnally, I'm your's to keep.
Just say we're together, babe.
If I knew you were mine to keep,
I wouldn't have wasted time.
Chorus:
Take a chance on me.
Take a chance on us
What have we got to lose?
You're mine to keep.
Verse 2:
Don't be afraid of this love.
You don't have to fear this love.
Where there is love, there is peace.
I'm your's to keep.
Bridge:
Days go by.
I thought I heard you call out my name.
But, it was in vain.
How I long to hear you say the words: "I Love You."
Last-Chorus:
Are you afraid to love someone?
Do you have wounds and scars in your heart?
'Cause you've been hurt before,
I promise I won't hurt you.
For, I'm your's to keep.
Hammering hard against the glistening tin
Rain, crystalline rain, midnight rain
Swirling and mixing and mingling the canvas paint
The earth finally drinks, but then woefully drowns;
A deluge once again
“Go ahead, smile at the chaos”
Me, solitary me, midnight me
Mind wide open but mouth firmly shut
Split into hims and her and its and thems
Characters mirroring the earth; swirling, mixing, mingling
Trudging up and scudding down the dim, narrow passage
While still smiling and basking in the chaos
Hammering hard against my glistening tin
“Why does he drink, when the drink isn’t healing?”
Behind vertical panels she watches in a pool of ivory,
still,
thunder strikes.
He runs a thousand miles lying down,
clutching his drowning empathy and speaking in tongues.
Age takes a toll but time remains fixed.
She tries to trace a pattern, but
the lines never double up.
Waking then aching. Raging then aging.
The blurred screams of blue and red.
She constantly tries to run with him, yet
as her twinkling presence is in his hands, the courage liquefies
He drinks it up. He drinks it all up
And she curls up in the glass prison once again.
Why do I feel alone when I shouldn't be?
I know things that very few people understand.
I have discovered qualities about myself that I felt ashamed of.
I have lost my faith, but I'm too scared to let others know.
I know many people, but can I call them my friends
When they use my flaws as weapons?
Trust is hard to gain and is easily destroyed.
So why socialize?
People around me are destitute to be in relationships
To blanket their fear, only for them to be gone.
I want a relationship that can last a lifetime
A relationship that lasts for as long as my parents have been together.
I know how to love, but it gets me hurt too easily.
Do I want a relationship or should I stay single for the rest of my life?
Life is like a fork in the road.
Once you choose the path you want to pursue, there is no going back.
I chose my destiny, but along the way, my heart has been scarred.
So much that my timidity is the most prominent of my personality.
Never would I be angry, this emotion solves nothing.
All I can do is hope this anger goes away and be alone in the dark.
I can go on for hours talking about what this world turned into.
Should I do it? What's the point? No one will listen.
Even if they did, their opinions will leave the wound in my heart vulnerable.
I stay alone and lost so I can be safe from mental harm.
