Breaking trust, breaking dream
Breaking trust, breaking dreams,
Nothing's ever like it seems:
Stories spoken, truth untold;
Dreams of having you to hold.
Fairytales are not real life,
Life if often filled with strife.
You were not quite straight with me,
Seems like love's not meant to be.
Tears are falling, salty rain:
Like I'm trying to drown the pain.
Nothing's ever like it seems;
Breaking trust is breaking dreams.
What's wrong with me?
Do I offend with who I choose to be?
What's wrong with me?
Do people dislike what they see?
What did I do?
All I thought was I loved you.
What did I do?
Why couldn't you love me too?
Where did I go wrong?
Building myself up took so long.
Where did I go wrong?
I've become so weak when I thought myself so strong.
What's wrong with me?

Can you hear me?
a voice calls
Can you hear me?
a voice falls
a plea in the distance
echoing, gone
Can you hear me?
a voice all alone

Can you hear me?
a nation cries
Can you hear me?
a nation dies
children alone
families gone
Can you hear me?
the cry goes on
Sitting down to count the tears
of a world of laughter
and the dance of years
So now I lay me down to sleep
And I pray the Lord will keep
A heart of dreams
A world too true
A life of things I did not do
Reaching out to stop the years
Hoping it won't stop the tears
Tears of hate, of joy, of dreams
And things that were not what they seemed
A year now gone
A trial passed
A life not going quite as asked
Yet full of laughter, song and dance
Filled with triumph and romance
So keep me safe throughout the night
But when I wake with morning's light
Take not away the dance of years
nor replace my joys or tears
For life, it gives an

Wind Beneath Your Wings
I'll catch you when you're falling,
I'll wipe away your tears.
I hear you when you're calling,
I'll relieve all of your fears.
I'm your shelter in the storm,
I am the music while you sing.
I will keep you safe and warm,
I am the wind beneath your wings.
I'm always where you need me,
Although you may not know,
I hear your every plea,
To your side I'll always go.
I'm the sparkle in your eyes,
I'm your help for everything.
I'm the sunlight in your sky,
I am the wind beneath your wings.
You wait for me to meet your eye
I turn and look away
I can't stand to see the pain
So I'll wait for another day
The despair that shows
I cannot bear
I glance away
Outside I stare
I feel your gaze upon my face
Why can't I just turn and look?
I know you know as well as I
You'll read my face like a book
Finding a dream
Not living a lie
Knowing things as they seem
Yet not wondering why
Awareness not open
Sorrows are gone
Not caring, just hopin'
A life full of song
A dream realized
A heart filled with joy
Hope and life that were prized
Are suddenly toys
Things to be played with
Easily bought
But that what was myth
Is not what was sought
A body lies broken
Eyes full of tears
The words that were spoken
Cannot ease the fears
One dreadful mistake
A heart turned to hate
Finding dreams that will break
With the hand that is fate
Is there any way I can help you struggle with these fears?
Is there a way I can help you learn to shed the tears?
Is it possible for me to help you fly,
To glide above the trees and watch the clouds roll by?
Will you let me help you to open your wings and soar?
Will you open up your walls and unlock every door?
Will this offer of help reach into your heart,
And throw your off your jesses so you can play your part?
Somewhere there is music
But I cannot hear the beat
Out there I know there's singing
But is the song for me?
I know the steps, I hear the tune
Yet wrong I seem to be
The dance goes on,
I step away
Once more, to cry in shame
"Turn not the lights away from me!"
an inner voice does cry,
"I know the steps, the tune, the beat,
All I have to do is try!"
But away they turn, no more to shine
My eyes look at the ground
I trudge away, bent down in pain
And weep for a time...
Of love
Watching for you at my window
Waiting for someone not there
Why doesn't anyone tell you
What happens in the pit of despair?
The sun is shining
The fans are waiting
For one who will not show
And one girl is sitting there on the bench
Stemming the tears that would flow
Why couldn't I help him?
The girl asks herself
Was there something that I should've said?
But no one can hear the tears of despair
When they're wept inside one girl's head
Watching for you at my window
Waiting for someone not there
Why doesn't anyone tell you
What happens in the pit of despair?
Watching the rain on the glass
mirror my tears.
Hoping there's a better tomorrow
knowing that hope has all gone.
Maybe next time will be better,
maybe I'll learn from mistakes.
Somehow it doesn't seem likely,
'cause I keep on repeating myself.
Hope has left me completely,
love is just a dream.
Nightmares are all that come easy,
watching my falling tears.
The rain in my heart is unceasing
The snow in my soul cannot melt
Why can't the sun come out?
Can someone save me from myself?
Watching the rain on the glass,
calmly breaking my world.
Hoping there's a better tomorrow,
finding pain withi
I just want to say I'm sorry
For all I've put you through
All the pain I've caused
And all the worry too
You were so strong for me
While I was oh so weak
You knew just what to say
When comfort I did seek
So I want to say I'm sorry
And thank you one more time
For the friendship you have shown me
That has no reason and no rhyme

Do I find my dreams or do my dreams find me?
I'd always assumed I dreamed my dreams
But what if my dreams dreamed me?
Dreaming with, not dreaming of
Stories in the night
Finding reality in the safeness of sleep
Dreaming the dreams that would be
Deep in the rest of the soul
I find my dreams and they find me
Looking deep within to see what waits
Somewhere there is music
But I cannot hear the beat
Out there I know there's singing

Welcoming Death, Complicated
Live old, but die young.
This is my dream.
Whether I'm a stone,
enduring wind, worn over broken years.
Broken to sand--
Or a bowl,
clay removed from kiln, it crumbles, burned.
Broken to dust--
But stone is still stone,
regardless of size.
Old stones are but young sand.
Life becomes motile, and things become seen,
to which is denied the ill-traveled rock.
My hopes are of glorious white sand.
Is not dust,
but a formless clay bowl?
Dust is completely-used clay, liberated.
Life becomes free, of worry, of restriction.
Soiled fingers can no longer control you.
My hopes are of calm floating dust.
My dream is sand,
and my dreams,
Current Residence: college... Favourite genre of music: soundtracks and instrumental Personal Quote: I have not lost my mind - it's backed up on disk somewhere.
So here I am in college right before my first semester of finals. It's been a tough semester emotionally, academically, and well... not so much physically. Psychologically? Maybe...
Anyways, I have a couple new things, some are just scraps, but take a look. Feedback is good sometimes. Hope you all have a great Christmas!
Hello~
So much for trying to write. I am going to be writing more in the near future though. As a stress reliever. I've been kind of stressed recently so it'll be good for me since being stressed makes me physically sick. That's pretty much it though....
So long...
Hey anyone who's reading this...
So I just went back and revisited some of my poems and such, and holy cow, how did I write those?! All the stuff I've tried to write lately is crap. Not even worth looking at, or even writing down. I envy one of my friends who has like, over 800 poems and they're all pretty good. But I guess we're not all that talented. *sigh*
I think I'm going to try to write tonight...
well jones, i did draw something, but i don't know if i'm brave enough to put it up on da... i'm still having hoolsema scan it for me though (don't have a working scanner at my house) and maybe it'll go up...

Oh, yah, and I take back the welcome. You are waaaay too welcomed, Kaylinda. < -- that is supposed to be a winking smiley face, but I always thought it was a pirate...
Pffffff, is it you, Kay-linda? Don't be so surprised that I had no clue, it's so strange to actually know people on this site. Even the word "bonkers" didn't tip me off...
