Two Worlds

Two worlds at war.

One is screaming, one is silent.
One is fighting, while the other is giving up.
One hates, one is losing faith.
One needs peace, the other just needs love.
Two worlds at war.
Both are searching.
Both are hurting.
Both are wanting.
Both feel trapped.
Two worlds at war.
Who will win the fight?

Along the Way

Somewhere along the way I let you in.

You explored parts of my soul like no one else.
I let you in and you stole my heart,
You took it and played with it like a child's toy.

Somewhere along the way you shattered my heart.
Here it lies in bits and pieces.
Still beating, but struggling to hang on.
The damage will forever show.

Somewhere along the way I decided I need you.
To you I gave my heart and soul.
I will never know why it wasn't enough,
But our memories I will cherish forever.

Somewhere along the way you decided to leave.
You left so suddenly, no warning, no goodbye.
Now I am left to mend my broken heart.

But...
Somewhere along the way I will be okay.
Somewhere along the way someone new will hold my heart.
Somewhere along the way love will come back to me.
Somewhere along the way I'll look back at you and smile.
Somewhere along the way I'll thank you.
And somewhere along the way I'll let you go.
Just not today.

You're Gone

Tonight you left me all alone.

I couldn't believe it, after all the feelings we've shown.
My heart just doesn't know what to say.
I'm not quite sure how to make it through the day.
My heart is all torn apart,
And desperately longing for a new start.
I don't understand how or why,
And all I can do now is breakdown and cry.
Forever, you hold a place in my heart.
A piece of my life, you will always play a part.
Thank you for bringing out my best.
It is clear that I loved you says the pain in my chest.

The Beginning

I tried it just once.

I didn't know my pain was this much.
I know that it was dumb,
But I wanted to feel better.
I don't know why I did it.
I just thought it would help.
To see my pores open up,
as the pain pours out.
Never did I want it to go this far.
What is wrong with me?
I wish someone was here to help.
I am so alone in the world.
Forever, I will bear these scars.
So deep inside, yet so shallow out.
Never again will I give in to pain.
I am strong and will overcome.

Giving Up

Somedays I feel like giving up,

My pain is an overflowing cup.
I've had enough,
I can't be tough.
Life is hard,
I was dealt a bad card.
It's just not fair
all this pain I bear.
Why me?
I can't see.
I tried,
I cried,
I bailed,
and I failed.
I'm done,
So you've won.
There's nothing more,
Of that I'm sure.

Wishing

There are so many things I want you to know,

But I'm way too scared to let my feelings show.
Feelings for you will forever be in my heart,
It's just something that I've felt from the start.
Sometimes I wish that you would love me too.
We could have a love so pure and so true.
But then I think of how much I could lose,
And a life without you is a road I fail to choose.
Though it kills me to see you with her,
Our friendship is more important, that I'm sure.
I know that soon we will go our separate ways,
And I will forever be missing those days.
Days when I could see your smiling face.
Days when I was up for the chase.
I feel that together we have come so far,
And every night I wish on the same old star,
That one day you will find that special someone.
The one who will make your whole world come undone.
It's the way you make me feel every night,
Nights when I wish with all my heart and might.

Hope

This one is for a struggling soul,

Whose life is in turmoil and out of control.
Your pain has built up to an unbearable height. 
This battle has claimed your spirit and might.
Your journey in life keeps throwing you curves.
You feel the inner turmoil as your body swerves.
Times are so hard, tears you may shed,
Longing for a place to rest your weary head.
You look at the world with tired eyes,
and plead for someone, anyone, to hear your cries.
6 billion people out there but nobody knows,
Your suffering inside because no pain shows.
Against yourself, you rage a war,
searching for the comfort of something more.
You are all alone, reinforcements you cannot call.
You are ready to give up and take the fall.
There is no other option, no sense of hope.
There is no way out, no way to cope.
You don't understand why this is you,
And sometimes you just wish that somebody knew.
Why does life have to be so hard?
Why did it deal you such a terrible card?
The answers to these we may never know,
But I'm begging you to let your feelings show.
If someone can help, please don't wait.
Don't stop to think, don't hesitate.
Someone is there for you always, I know.
I've been there myself, alone you cannot go.
There is always somebody, a willing friend.
So reach for their hand, they'll be with you until the end.
Go out and accomplish your dreams,
Though at times it may be impossible it seems.
There are so many things you still need to do.
The hope is alive, and found in you.

Unrequited Love

Hiding deep within the heart,

So many things we don't understand.
Two certain lives cannot be apart,
Without pain, longing for the touch of a hand.

How I wish to be that one,
The one that makes you complete.
Just your smile makes me come undone,
but in each attempt to speak, words take fleet.

I love you and I need you,
In so many ways, you complete me.
How can there be a one-sided love so true?
Love so unfair, only I can see.
