She don't run from the sun no more
She boxed her shadow and she won
Said i can see you laugh
Through these bottle caps
And this wire around my neck aint 
There for fun

But someday we'll all be old
And i'll be so damn beautiful

Me while i hide my head
Here in this paper bag
Cause if i cant see you
Then you can't see me
And it'll be okay
Fly there will be a way
To where theres no more rain
And i can be me

Yeah they talk about her
She smiles like shes so tough
She says
"hey can you talk a little louder,
I don't think my heart is broken enough"

But someday we'll all be old
And i'll be so damn beautiful

Me while i hide my head 
Here in this paper bag
Cause if i can't see you 
Then you can't see me
And it'll be okay
Fly there will be a way 
To where theres no more rain
And i can be me

Some days i wait and the ?
Singing that song on the radio
I blame these people

What songs would you relate to this poem?

- - -

Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me;
The carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality.

We slowly drove, he knew no haste,
And I had put away
My labor, and my leisure too,
For his civility.

We passed the school where children played
At wrestling in a ring;
We passed the fields of gazing grain,
We passed the setting sun.

We paused before a house that seemed
A swelling of the ground;
The roof was scarcely visible,
The cornice but a mound.

Since then ’t is centuries; but each
Feels shorter than the day
I first surmised the horses’ heads
Were toward eternity

Hey everyone, I've written a few songs and I figure this is a good place to post them..I'll only do them one at a time..this is the first one I ever wrote..let me know what you think.

Its called Falling Inside.

Falling Inside:

You’re always trying to make me feel,
I don’t need to show you how I really am.
You say you wish I would just be real,
Keeping it all inside, pretending I don’t give a damn.

I’m falling fast,
I don’t; don’t want these feelings to last.
You ask me why I don’t care,
They’re tears of joy, I swear.

You say you feel nervous after every kiss,
I always have that effect on you.
The truth is I’m not even sure of this,
How can you be sure you feel the way you do?

I’m falling fast,
I don’t; don’t want these feelings to last.
You ask me if I care,
They’re tears of joy, I swear.



Alright thanks.

The whispers of the voices
can be found inside my head,
but when i try to look inside
i find that they are dead.
They tell me not to do those things,
but some say to carry on.
Relieve the stress,
relieve the pain...
hear the whispers of
the pouring rain.

like it?

In a world full of hate and lies, its better to tell at the first sign, to tell truth to friend and foe, and you wouldn't be in such a surreal show, and you can still be forgiven, talk to them, speak to them, let everything show, no more lies, no more tears, in this world of hate and anger. Z

Eyes are feeling heavy, but they never seem to close. The fan blades on the ceiling spin, but the air is never cold. Even though you're next to me, I still feel so alone. I just can't give you anything for you to call your own. And I can feel you breathing, and it's keeping me awake. can you feel it beating? My heart's sinking like a weight. Something I've be keeping locked away behind my lips, I can feel it breaking free with each and every kiss. I couldn't bear to hurt you, but it's all so different now. Things that I was of sure then have filled me up with doubt. How am I supposed to feel about the things I've done? I don't know if I should stay or turn around and run. I know that I hurt you; things will never be the same, the only love I ever knew, I threw it all away.

We are here
But you are distant
Your eyes are looking beyond me
And your thoughts are wandering
And we’re shrouded by a cloak of darkness
Shrouded by a cloak of darkness
But I can hear the patronization in your voice

Don’t roll your eyes at me
It’s dark but I can still see
I can still feel your piercing eyes burning a hole through me
Don’t roll your eyes at me
It’s dark but I can still see
I can still feel the irritation in your touch asking me to leave

You still talk
But I’m not listening
It’d be a lie to say that I still care
And that I enjoy having you here
And we’re shrouded by a cloak of darkness
Shrouded by a cloak of darkness
But can you hear the apathy in my voice?

Don’t roll your eyes at me
It’s dark but I can still see
I can still feel your piercing eyes burning a hole through me
Don’t roll your eyes at me
It’s dark but I can still see
I can still feel the irritation in your touch asking me to leave

We still argue
And we say things
That we’ll take back after awhile
Say we didn’t mean them, but we’re both just liars

I say it’s over
You say, “I’m not giving you up without a fight”
All we do is fight

I say it’s over
You say, “I’m not giving you up without a fight”
All we do is fight

All we do is fight

Don’t roll your eyes at me
It’s dark but I can still see
I can still feel your piercing eyes burning a hole through me
Don’t roll your eyes at me
It’s dark but I can still see
I can still feel the irritation in your touch asking me to leave

I’m not giving you up without a fight
All we do is fight
I’m not giving you up without a fight
All we do is fight
You say, “I still care”
I say, “You are lying”
All we do is fight

ALL WE DO IS FIGHT

I wrote this when I was San Diego sitting on the shoreline alone at night missing my boyfriend.

The waves are so powerful.
You feel like nothing as you walk onto the shoreline at night
Walking into a blanket of white among the midnight sky.
And it's amazing. Breathtaking.
I wish I could capture every moment and put them into pictures for you.
As a grin breaks free from my face, I smile and feel as if nothing can destroy this spirit.

In this moment I am free.
Troubles and worries fade into the crystal ocean.
I look to the sky and see your face among the constellations.
Giggles and laughter echo in the background.
I breathe. The crisp air creates goosebumps and I cuddle to the blanket and clutch unto this pen pouring my heart out.
<marquee>City lights paint a scene to make it complete.<marquee>

and this pic reminds me of that exact moment of how i was...

Hey everyone i just joined. I've come to the conclusion that i enjoy writing but i hate everything i write. So instead of showing my friends the things i write i thought i'd share with people who i will never have to face. So i'll start off with a song i wrote a few days ago. Comments are welcome good or bad. And btw my first line was inspired/stolen by someones lj icon cuz really that's what got me going on the rest of the song but the rest is mine i swear. doesn't have a title cuz i usually don't worry about that part.

my screams would make you cry
even when i try
my deep thoughts inside
make me wish i would die
facing turned backs
my knees buckle i crumble
can't stumble my strength is unable to
lift me up

i should stay down
let myself drown
hear my dying sound
i don't want to be found

i'm taking in all your pain
wonder if i am sane
everything's still the same
my body curls up in shame
crippled by damage
not living or breathing
decieveing the reaper
i'm no longer a sleeper

i should stay down (i'm running away)
let myself drown (no more need to stay)
hear my dying sound (not living each day)
i don't want to be found

I’m trying to find a way to say I don’t miss you

I can’t find the right way to say what I’m thinking about
All I ever do is tell it to you; I just let it out
I know that will never bring you home to me
So little strategy in honesty

I’m trying to find a way to say I don’t miss you
To lie and say I can live and I don’t need to kiss you
But I’m dying a little more every day
And I’m lying every time I say, I don’t miss you

I can’t change my attitude when I should be your fool
And I can’t keep from crying to you when I should be cool
I’m not there when you’re so lonely and
Even when I’m begging you won’t come to me

So if I say I don’t care, don’t believe me
It’s so hard to take it easy
It’s not bad, it’s okay
That’s just a stupid game I play

I’m trying to find a way to say I don’t miss you
To lie and say I can live and I don’t need to kiss you
But I’m dying a little more every day
And I’m lying every time I say I don’t miss you

I’m nothing like I used to be
And you’re everything but next to me

So if I say I don’t care, don’t believe me
It’s so hard to take it easy
It’s so bad, I can’t explain
What would make me say

I don’t miss you

don't fret precious i'm here, step away from the window
go back to sleep

lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come

counting bodies like sheep
to the rhythm of the war drums

pay no mind to the rabble
pay no mind to the rabble

head down, go to sleep
to the rhythm of the war drums

pay no mind what other voices say
they don't care about you, like I do, like I do
safe from pain and truth and choice and other poison devils,
see, they don't give a fuck about you, like i do.

just stay with me, safe and ignorant,
go back to sleep
go back to sleep

lay your head down child
I won't let the boogeyman come
count the bodies like sheep
to the rhythm of the war drums

pay no mind to the rabble
pay no mind to the rabble

head down, go to sleep to the rhythm of the war drums

I'll be the one to protect you from
your enemies and all your demons

I'll be the one to protect you from
a will to survive and a voice of reason

I'll be the one to protect you from
your enemies and your choices son
they're one in the same
I must isolate you
Isolate and save you from yourself

swayin to the rhythm of the new world order and
count the bodies like sheep to the rhythm of the war drum

the boogeymen are coming
the boogeymen are coming

keep your head down, go to sleep, to the rhythm of a war drum

stay with me
safe and ignorant
just stay with me
hold you and protect you from the other one
the evil ones
don't love you son,
go back to sleep
