Fly Away

I close my eyes,

And rock to sleep,

Trying to ignore,

My feelings so deep,

Trying to leave them,

Far, far away,

Trying to forget,

And to go far astray,

Move away from my worries,

Move away my cares,

Leave this world,

And move on to the air,

To forget all my worries,

To forget all my fears,

Into my mind,

A life without tears,

Sometimes I wish,

With the stress,

With the problems,

With the simple facts of life,

I could leave,

I could go,

And I could fly,

Fly away.

Looking

Looking for the key,
To a door that can't be found,
Searching for a door,
To which there is no room,

Swimming through the ocean,
Trying to find a desert,
Walking through the city,
Trying to find the farm,

Living my life,
Just trying to find the meaning,
Going through the days,
Just trying to see what's happening,

I'm looking for the question,
That I know has no answer,
I'm looking for the answer,
To a question never asked,

My life is one big question,
But I can't find the answer,
It may be around the corner,
Or merely down the street,

It could be someone's love,
Or a caring touch,
It could be one moment,
In a coffee shop,

But when I find that key,
I know I'll see the door,
And when I find that door,
I know it'll have a room,

And when I find that desert,
I'll know exactly why it's there,
And when I find that farm,
I'll know exactly where the cows are,

One day I'll find my meaning,
And what is happening,
But until that very day,
Where ever it may be,

I only know,
What I know,
And until then,
I'm just looking.

Just Another Day

Remember the pull of my heart,

As it stretched out to meet you,

Surrounding you with all I could give,

The love that I felt,

No greater could be found,

If you had searched the entire world,

But love can twist and turn,

Can change in a wink,

Can expand or shrink,

Without a moment's notice,

It can be gone,

I don't want to lose it,

To lose what we have,

I don't want to change,

What I waited for,

I don't want to wish,

I had done something else,

I don't want to hope,

It will turn for the better,

I just want to help,

To patch up this break,

I just want to save our love,

For just another day.

Flying

I wait and wait,
to hear from you,
I feel like such bait,
to what you can do.

But, hearing from you,
makes everything better,
After what I've been through,
you're love's like a sweater.

It makes me feel warm,
and it makes me feel pretty,
I'm safe from the storm,
and I'm out of the pity.

I'm happy with you,
and I'm not longer crying,
I'm into the blue,
and believe it, I'm flying.

Deserve

Live for the wants,

forget other's needs,

Desire for flaunts,

while only you succeed,

Live for today,

don't consider tomorrow,

Others lives a shade of gray,

while you won't let anyone borrow,

Enough of your precious earnings,

to buy a mere meal,

Only consider your yearnings,

can you even feel?

You want so much,

yet give so little,

Just one soft touch,

to those you belittle,

Always get, 

never give,

You'll always regret,

not letting other people live,

So sit and observe,

those you do care,

Maybe you don't deserve,

All that money and flair,

I like to think,

about what I should get,

But they never quite link,

with my gaining debt,

I know there's so many things,

that I could do,

But with nature's springs,

they just never come true,

I laugh, 

and I cry,

Though on my behalf,

I don't deserve the reply,

That karma gives to me,

whenever it comes my way,

It listens to my plea,

and most always makes my day,

Its given me love,

and my true art,

I have plenty to brag of,

yet on my part,

I don't think its me,

who earns all these pleasures,

Yet I'm filled with glee,

I'm given all these treasures,

I like to think,

being humble's enough,

Though it's pushing the brink,

when I've got all this stuff,

I like to think those who are concerned,

yet never do swerve,

Get what they earned,

That they get what they deserve. 

Sitting in the Silence

You look at me,

I look at you,

There's nothing either one of us can do.

We wait and wait,

for something better,

neither one of us wants to be the trend setter.

No one wants,

to speak up,

but if they took a close-up.

They would find,

we want to fix,

what our little lives depict.

Miserable and shamed,

to boot,

we wish we knew another route.

Some people say,

they're just like us,

but do they fight, and cry, and cuss?

About where their going,

how they'll survive,

without their life going on a tumultuous dive.

The next time,

I hear one of them,

going on and on about how their life's so condemned.

I know exactly,

what I'll ask, 

to see if their feelings I can unmask.

Do you ever find yourself out in crowds,

feeling as if you're the only one there?

Do you ever find yourself alone with your music,

because you think no one cares?

Do you ever find yourself ignoring the world,

because you think that they're ignoring you?

Do you ever find yourself on the computer,

even though there's no one to talk to?

And do you ever find yourself amidst the noise,

yet sitting in the silence?

Never Forget

We once were those girls,

who never broke apart,

Wearing long fake pearls,

and breaking little boys hearts,

We laughed and we cried,

but always together,

We'd be friends till we died,

from now till forever,

But friendships can fade,

and new ones can bloom,

The more friends we made,

the closer we came to doom,

Farther apart we grew, 

it ended way too fast,

Away we flew,

nothing ever seems to last,

Beyond these adolescent years,

of drama and stress beyond,

Beyond these middle school tears,

if only I could wave a wand,

To bring us back to those old times,

Of dress-up and make believe,

I only hope that as time climbs,

you'll never forget me.
