Show your colors

And it's on tonight-
The pen's running out
It's time to turn the page
The light's dimming low
Your drinks' almost out
It's time to come out-
Stop your hiding now
Let the world know;
Just who you are
Don't be shy, just take my hand
We'll face this together
 Pick up the pieces,
Show them you can do this;
You're stronger than they are
All you have to do is breathe-
Don't let them see; all your fears
Wipe away your tears,
Put on your best dress, fake your biggest smile
You can do this
Don't let anybody tell you; who you are
Let them think what they want to think
Sing your song, the world will cry-
Cry your song tonight
Show them who you are-
You're the best person you'll ever be
Don't be afraid,
Just breathe and stand proud
Love who you are-
Because you are... simply amazing.

Best Friend

Take my hand and let's walk a mile,
Say the things that's been on your mind

Take your time; stay awhile,
Let go of all things that you've confined

Pandora's box,
Broken wide

Let loose all you've kept locked,
I'll always walk alongside

Put your trust inside me,
My friendship is the one you'll always bear

I'll hold the key,
Let yourself be completely bare

Start anew,
I'll help you rebuild your state of mind

You will always push through,
You'll finally become unconfined

I will hold you when you can't go on,
Wipe your tears as they begin to fall

As soon as your feelings have been drawn,
You'll be able to hold it above all

Always know, you're never alone,
I'll always help pick the pieces

You don't have to go through everything on your own,
 Eventually you'll be able to release

Until then, I'll always be by your side.

Now and then

Breathe-
            I am trapped

Release-
           I can't let go

Forgive-
           I don't know how

Believe-
           I've lost my faith

Trust-
          I have to start all over again

Light-
          I am filled with darkness

Emotions-
          I have locked them away

---------------------------------------------------

Locked-
          I have set them free

Darkness-
          I found my light

Distrust-
          I found her's

Faithless-
          I believe in her love

Unforgiving-
          I let go of my past

Trapped-
          I am freed

Breathless-
          She's my Sweetest Insanity.

Combusting

Intertwined:
         Two paths


Stasis:
          Unmoving


Black & white:
          No shades of grey


Endless:
          Decisions and unstability


Control:
          Out of my reach


Fear:
           Everything, anything


Losing:
           My way

                                I
                                  Am
                                       Divided

Unanswered

To take the path not yet taken,
Or the path that's been heavily trodden?

Crossroads and forks,
Which direction to choose?

Take the easy way out,
Or the hard way and find out?

Follow the script,
Or make it up along the way?

Fall into mainstream,
Or make yourself known?

Choose black and white,
Or color your life in rainbow?

Listen to your head,
Or follow your heart?

How do you ever choose?

Locked up Tight

Blindfolded-
Unable to speak; gagged
Obscured from sight,
Except I can see
My lips shiver from unspoken words-
Bound so tight,
I cannot breathe
Knots hold me down-
Unbreakable yet fragile
My story will go untold.
Tongue tied; trapped inside
There's no escape

Wanderer

Wide awake
Entrapped within thoughts
Weaving endless threads
Never coming together; always apart
Grasping at something, anything
Always falling, never steady
I cannot hold on- where's my strength?
Wait, go back
I can't...
I'm too far gone
Give me a hand, any hand-
ANYBODY?
Are you there- am I that alone?
Save me...
For I cannot save myself.
