For my other half.

Dedicated to Lisa aka Umm Aha, my bestest friend. Love you man.

 

 

When I lost faith
You believed in me
When I stumbled
You were right there
For every act of love you’ve done
I owe you one

 

There were hard times
I know I survived
Just because you stayed by my side
With all I have, with all I am
I promise you all my life

 

Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever the journey may lead to
I will be there for you
I will be there for you

 

Through sorrow
Or the darkest night
When there’s heartache
Deep down inside
Just like a prayer, you will be there
And I promise you all my life

 

Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever the journey may lead to
I will be there for you
I will be there for you

 

Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever the journey may lead to
I will be there for you
I will be there for you

 

I’ll always be there

 What do you do when you feel so low, you wish you could disappear?

Reflection

Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you’ll never know me
Every day, is as if I play apart
Now I see
If I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I can not fool
My heart
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
I am now
In a world where I have to
Hide my heart
And what I believe in
But somehow
I will show the world
What’s inside my heart
And be loved for who I am
Who is that girl I see
Staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection
Someone I don’t know?
Must I pretend that i’m
Someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show
Who I am inside?
There’s a heart that must
Be free to fly
That burns with a need
To know the reason why
Why must we all conceal
What we think
How we feel
Must there be a secret me
I’m forced to hide?
I won’t pretend that i’m
Someone else
For all time
When will my reflections show
Who I am inside?

-C.A.

“If I can stop one heart from breaking.”

IF I can stop one heart from breaking,
I shall not live in vain;
If I can ease one life the aching,
Or cool one pain,
Or help one fainting robin
Unto his nest again,
I shall not live in vain.

– ED.

Hope

A silent hope, rising deep within

Alone with a world,

where birds dont sing

no sun gives rays

of a bright new beginning

Where you can see

the shadows of darkness

like lashes inflicting pain

These solitary moments

sprinkled with sadness

the diss-integrated-compliments

words so bitter, yet seemingly so sweet

Memories of those days

a respite, in this withering, bleary life

The droplet now absorbed with a thousand more

dissolving a fragile hope, silenced forever.
