Broken Smiles Shattered HeartsWords can hurt and actions sting
Thoughts shatter your world in two
I'll grab some tape, glue, and string
Let's see what we can do

Let's paste a smile on your face
Let's mend that shattered heart
Hold it all together with a bit of string
Now it shouldn't fall apart

Let's put some faith into your soul
Let's ease that troubled mind
Tomorrow will be a better day
Than the one you'll leave behind

And if your smile begins to fade
Or your heart it begins to unmend
I'll always be here to catch the pieces
I'll be here, for you, my friend
Another Night of ScreamsSlam, smash, broken glass
Another night of screams
Here's another round of hurt
Tonight there'll be no dreams

So now love, close your eyes
So now honey, block your ears
Keep strong now, neutral look
Keep on hiding all your fears

Slam, smash, broken glass
Another night of screams
Here's another round of hurt
Tonight there'll be no dreams

Careful now hun, don't you cry
Keep holding back your tears
Block out all the memories
They were just nightmares

Slam, smash, broken glass
Another night of screams
Here's another round of hurt
Tonight there'll be no dreams

Just ignore the hurtful words
Ignore when shadow nears
You can do
A Whisper On The WindI am the one who listens am a whisper on the wind
I wonder why the willows will forever weep
I hear the echo of tomorrow and the days that follow
I see the place where the shadows dwell
I want to be found, I dare you to search for me
I am the one who listens am a whisper on the wind

I pretend to be everywhere and nowhere all at once
I feel older than my age yet still a frightened child
I touch the light hidden beneath the darkness
I worry that I'll never mean anything, that I will fade
I cry in the night when there is no one who will hear
I am the one who listens am a whisper on the wind

I understand how a word can shatter your ex
Just Another For The BrokenJust another sad and broken little girl
Alone and scared she hides from the world
Looking downward so you can't see her eyes
Never letting anyone see when she cries

Just another little girl scared and alone
From a shattered past and broken home
She's scarred and bruised but hides it well
They think her life's perfect, but really it's hell

Just another little girl dealing with her fear
Living with a secret she shouldn't have to bear.
She hates who she is, because of what he did
Can't look at herself, she's one messed up kid

Just another little girl with secrets to keep
Lies awake late at night, can no longer sleep
Terrified of th
IndefinableDo you know how much I love you?

Picture every beautiful sight in the world.
Every magical place.
Everything amazing about this planet.
Every image that leaves you breathless.
And then picture all of that as being nothing except an empty lot filled with rubbish.
Because it is all rubbish when compared to you.

You may ask how much you mean to me. How much I love you.
But it is impossible to describe in words. Impossible to define.
As impossible as trying to define you with words.
Because no words have yet been created to sum up who you are.
There aren't any words to describe your beauty. Only a million overused metaphors.
Aren't
Barefoot   Today I ran barefoot. It's the only way to run. You don't know freedom until you've run without shoes. Without soles weighing you down. Or laces tying you back. Run without inhibitions.

   Today I ran down hills and across busy streets. Feet pounding against hot asphalt. Running through cool, damp, grass. Balancing on curbs. And jogging along walls .

   Today I ran down crowded sidewalks, shoes in hand, not returning glances. Silent questions hang heavy in the air. They watch me as I make my way down the street. I zig-zag past trash bins and over recycle bins. The hurdles of city life.

 
Do You Know Why A Star Falls?Do you know why a star falls?
That is a star that has given up in defeat
A star that could not out sparkle your eyes
A star that knows greater beauty when it sees it

And the sun rises each morning
In a failed attempt to outshine your smile
Out glow the warmth of your generous heart
But rests each night for it's no match to your soul

And gravity is forever unhalting
Because the earth, like me, is selfish
So selfish as to be craving your presence
But earth, alone, never enough to keep you here

But do you know why it rains?
Each droplet is one wish I made for you
One drop for each ache of this longing heart
For every tear shed and
Come Run Away With MeAnd maybe now you're lost and scared
Afraid of life and what may be
Just take my hand love, hold on tight
Come run away with me

And maybe sorrow fills your eyes
Tears blur so you can't see
I am here just take my hand
Come run away with me

And maybe this world is cruel and cold
We'll be just fine, you wait and see
For you'll have me and I'll have you
Come run away with me

We have no clue where we will go
But together we will be
Eachother is all we'll ever need
Come run away with me
Something...Something you've needed to hear...

You are my light in the darkness.
The strength that keeps me from breaking.
The one to mend my battered and bruised self.
My reason to continue through the rough patches.
The greatest friend I've ever known.
You for some reason love this broken soul
when no one else has or tried.
You can see me for all that I am
even though I'm invisible to the rest of the world.
You keep my weak heart beating
even when it just wants to give in and shatter.
You've gathered all the broken pieces of who I am,
and placed them back in order,holding them in place.
And even my darkest days you make bright.
I am less
Cause and EffectCould it be true I've made you smile
You say it's true you're smiling
So hard to believe that I'm the reason
But you always say I am

Could it be true I've made you laugh
You say it's true you're laughing
So hard to believe that I'm the cause
But you always say I am

Could it be true I've made you love
You say it's true you love me
So hard to believe I could be loved
But you always say I am

Could it be true you've made me smile
And you make me laugh it's true
So hard to believe that I could love
But you know I do
The Dance Of The MothFew have ever witnessed the dancing of the moth
When he flits across the ceiling in the night
A most magical scene as he dances back and forth
And he's never lacking elegance in flight

As he swoops and twirls to a song all his own
A song, of which, us humans will never hear
And at first glance he appears to dance alone
A closer look reveals that something's there

Once he had a partner he loved with all his heart
And when she passed she left a piece behind
For their souls could not bear to ever have to part
So she left her shadow there for him to find

For this serenade's designed not for one but two
It's a tribute for the lovers o
Of Souls and MiraclesPeople see you but they haven't really seen
you yet... they look in your general direction but
don't really see you there. More of, they just catch
the shadow you leave behind. The echo of what is
there. Which is nothing more than a ripple on the
surface; never seeing the treasure that lies mere
inches beneath. Because they are unwilling to wait
they will never see the true miracle you are.

A great loss on their part.

For I have glimpsed your soul and it is beautiful.
Here Comes The StormWhy is it that it comes to this?
That I have to choose between?
That I will hurt someone I love?
It's because I don't deserve either
They deserve more than this world has to offer
More than this broken person can give
I will hurt, I will disappoint, I will let down
And what happens from here?
In the end will I lose one or both?
I am in turmoil with my heart and soul
I need both to live
Because what is life without one or the other?
It's not a life worth living
So where do I go from here?
Is it best to let my heart and soul free?
Free to move on to someone more deserving
Someone who will know how to show them only happiness
Wh
Perfection   I love it when you wake in the morning, sleepy-faced, eyes unadjusted. How not every hair is always in place. The way your eyes crinkle, opening wide and then squinting again, as you try to focus. How you still have this dreamy expression on if you're still tired. When you try hard not to yawn in front of me, and then when you do, you smile guiltily.

   I love spending the whole day with you. How your face becomes so animated in conversation. When you get excited over something your whole face lights up. How I can make you smile so much. Your lips seeming to curl up on their own. When I can say the corniest o
It's A Game, A Dance, A SongIt's a game really, with each of us playing our part
I'll hide, try and find me if you care
You ask the questions and I'll dodge around the answers
Cat and mouse, catch me if you can

It's a dance really, back and forth we will flit about
Never settling in one spot too long
We've danced this dance so many times, know every move
Each step is so carefully placed

It's a song you know, each of us a different note
Each just another chord on the guitar
It's when the notes come together that the magic happens
They're no longer a sound but music

Sometimes...Sometimes I ruin everything around me...
Sometimes I don't have all the answers...
Sometimes I can't hold everything together...
Sometimes I screw up...
Sometimes I fail...
Sometimes I'm not enough a reason...
Sometimes what I say doesn't matter...
Sometimes I don't matter...
Sometimes I don't do anything right...
Sometimes I say the wrong thing...
Sometimes it is all my fault...
Sometimes I just want to give up...

But I read your words and you make me
feel like the greatest person in the world...
Wise Old SageWise old sage how many years have you seen?
How many birds have come to rest in your branches?
How many a sunrise have you watched in your existance?
How many nights have you glimpsed a falling star?
How many scars give witness to lovers who have met here
Hoping to leave their mark upon the world?

Great old sage how many births have you stood here?
How many generations have lain in your towering shadow?
How many children have hidden amongst your plentiful leaves?
How many a swing has been hung upon your powerful limbs?
How many fragments of rope bear witness to the laughter
Of the youth that dare climb upon your bough?

Because too often we can feel lost
Shadows may come and cover you in darkness
But day will come bringing light and with it hope
For you will then see the path and the path will lead you
And if ever the path becomes unclear I will find you
So fear not being lost, for you will always be found
