Here I must stay

Here, here they have taken me.

Walking on the street,
Taking in the sights, the smells.
The world closed in, trapped in their small boxes which they call homes.

The car, speeding towards me,
Asking me questions, taking me in.
It recons I am not sane, I know this not to be true.

Here, here they have taken me.

I know not where I am,
I know not if there are others here.
I am trapped in this room, like all those in the outside world,
Trapped in their boxes.

Here, here they have taken me,
And here I must stay

Rose Red


"Rose, rose, rose red
How long 'till I see thee wed"

Echos in my head.

Sittting, withered rose in hand.
Damp, with a single tear.

My hand feels light,
As though it's not completly there.
No more weighed down,
No more ring to wear.

I know, then I know,
He will never come back.

Marked in Red

A white sheet.

In the corner,
Marked in red.

F

World spinning,
Closing in.

F

There,
Marked in red.

Flying

Now,
I fly.
When will I stop?

These circles,
This
NEVER
ENDING
path,
through the darkness

This is not my home,
This is not where I was meant to be going

Words echo in my head
Tearing at the last shards of peace

I know it's almost over,
It will all come to an end soon.

I circle
I try to escape
I can't,
I never will.

And so
I fly.

Forever

When you meet him,
Your heart stops.
When you open your heart,
Forever seems so close.

But forever is a broken promise,
One no one ever keeps.

When he first kisses you,
Your world turns upside down.
When you feel his fingers locked in yours,
Forever seems so close.

But forever is a broken promise,
One no one ever keeps.

When he looks in your eyes,
You know that something's wrong.
When you hear his words,
Forever is gone.

Forever is a broken promise,
One he wasn't able to keep.

Sister

She stands there,
I know she is there.
I can see her.
But is she really?

How can I know that she is there?
Nobody has ever stayed.
Nobody has been there for me when I needed them most.

She's just one girl,
Standing alone.
What can she do?

But she's my sister.
She loves me.
I know she does.

She's there for me,
And I'm there for her.
I love her.

This is my Life

This is my life, my world.
Looking out over the water, I see my past,
And I see my future.
This is it, this is who I am;
Like it or not, I'm not changing.
I will learn to love life,
I will learn to care,
I will learn to reach for the stars,
And I will learn that they can be reached.
I am who I am,
And nobody and nothing can change that.
My friends are my life,
And I love my life,
And everyone in it.
