Shades Yellow My Stars For You How Many Times? The New Me Immobile 1 AM Dizzy Shades
We sit behind these shades hide behind closed doors listening to what's on the other side but never bothering to break free We are birds in cages we are horses in pens why don't we break free? Are we afraid of what's on the other side? Are we afraid of making too much noise when we break the lock? Maybe we just like the protection of our cage. maybe it's comforting to stand behind that locked door and cry send our tears down the dark wood of captivity lean against the coolness of the steel walls and feel metal safety waiting for some creator to feed us and blanket us in our reality.Yellow
You came floating like a feather from the sky flooding my window with sweet words and soft touches. You lay cold and waiting for a drop of rain to set you free of the fire you'd wanted so badly to burn. You whispered sweet kisses to my lips and dropped them from a Godless sky. You fell out of my window a rock a stone crashing to the ground in a silent explosion of all the pain I set aside for you to come into my heart and untangle some of the love that I had balled up somewhere that I couldn't find.My Stars
My stars are shining brightly and I am happy now I guess that I got through it though I don't remember how When I didn't know what to do my stars were always there correcting me when I was wrong they always showed they cared They helped me through my weaknesses they loved me for my strengths and no matter what wrong I did with me they'd always stay Sometimes in my journey the faintest stars they meant the most though sometimes they went unseen almost like a ghost. When I couldn't stand My stars would help me up When I thought there was no more My stars would show me love Though there were always few my stars are mostly gone to help another where they can to be another's pawn They loved me for a while at least they really pulled me through and even though they've left me now to them I'll always be trueFor You
You were ready Trying hard enough just to keep my life steady yell at my ear tell me all the things that I fear see through my eyes I thought you could see right through my disguise quickly run away you know in your heart you'll never stay I can't see I can't quite read your mystery look in my heart search until you find your new start undertows below just let your life drift by slow valor gets you so far then you're down to your last star then when you don't know what to do I will always be with you.How Many Times
How many times can you shoot me down before I stop rising from the dead? How many times can you tell me lies before I lose trust in all man-kind? What did you expect from me- everything? Well, you can't have it.The New Me
It's the new me the powerful me the almighty. The joyous me with perfect words The outgoing the listening one Always the caring one You told me to change does this outfit look better? Does this set of pearls suit me better than the string of rocks that I like to wear? But soon, won't the pearls be old and cracked? Won't you then want me to wear a string of rubies and gold? When will you be happy? When will you let me be? You just want to bury everything I have Everything I've worked for And start me all over. Make my collection your collection. No more rock collections for me Only jewels Only the finest stones No more dirty pebbles Just perfection.Immobile
Sing to the stars tell them of your wishes tell them of your desires and curse them for your sins. Nail your feet to the ground Nail your wings to your flesh Nail your arms to your sides and don't dare to make a move. Where are you going? Where do you run? Where do you hide from yourself? I know you can't see me your eyes are gouged. I know you can't hear me your ears are stuffed. But speak, just try. Tell me your thoughts as you stand there locked inside.1 AM
So strong this is Uncharted territory to this naive soul What was once so beautiful in my eyes is now only sticks and mud What was once so putrid is now my soul's desire. I cannot remember anything of my life before All is lost Nothing can I recollect but how happy I must've been to be so unknowing so innocent ond girlish But now all I can think is sadness An emotion, as I've found, one can grow quite fond of.Dizzy
Dizzy heads spinning from dizzy minds The pinwheels of society revolving in the summer's gentle breeze A long book with no words and a song with no music Comprehension is the horizon seeking but not finding Will we ever reach the truth? What of those who care not to ponder? Oh I envy those full on their knowledge But I want the three course meal.Fall
Whispers float on the wind, promises are clouds drifting away
in the winter's harsh blows of biting air. Death has come now
to this beautiful place that never known the grim reaper.
Skeletons sway and windows close. My mind knows not what to
do. Love is lost. Life is lost. Everything in me is dead,
wanting, waiting to be reborn, to be give new life. My soul aches
with the bitter cold of this place and I want to go home where it
is warm. But try as I might, home is nowhere to be found and I
am left here to linger on Jack Frost's nose and wait for the warmth
