be who i am

Posted on by under Girls, Sad, Struggles


i think of you when i’m lonely
when i have a story to tell
i could always get a laugh from you
like water from a well

wrap my words around you
like a blanket keep you warm
hold my love over your head
like shelter from the storm

but i need you…to hold my hand
and say it’s ok…if i don’t understand
i need you to whisper “i love you”
i need you be….who i’ve been for you

the lover and the loser
both can be a fool
with a shiny prize
we overlook the rules

i never thought it was game
until you did not want to play
i never knew till know
i can’t get back what i gave away

All Over Me

Posted on by under Getting Over It, Sad

she doesn’t think about me anymore
there ain’t gonna be a phonecall
no letter to see what i’m up to today
no postcard she bought at the mall

i like to think it’s still an issue
that she wants to go back again
but it’s only a dream that we could be
anything, even just friends

she’s all over me
i can’t get her out of my mind
she’s all over me
i’ve been left behind
she’s all over me
she’s over me

she’s a rainy day hobby i try to fix
and work it out 1000 different ways
i am so close to find out
what i could have done to make her stay

everything holds her reflection
i just want to be left alone
but i gave my heart to her
so i guess i can’t hold my own

guess i’ll let you go

i’m keeping a straight face
i’m playing it cool
but you turn my strength
into the hope of a fool

how could you call me
with nothing to say
but i’m not admitting
you made my day

how are ya doing?
we can’t talk long
i’m glad you called
no, nothing wrong
i can’t let you know….
so i guess i’ll let you go

risk means reward, right?
when why do i lose?
i don’t sit on the shelf
waiting for you to choose

if i show you my heart
you’ll leave me alone
so i’m keeping these secrets
on my telephone

calling to hear your voice

Posted on by under friends, Girls, Sad


i want to cry on your shoulder
and tell you about my day
i want you to hold me
and say “everything’s ok!”

but i can’t do that anymore
in 5 minutes over phonelines
these days i only get
time enough to say goodbye

and i don’t have anything new for you
i’m just calling to hear your voice
you’re sunshine to these shadows
and i have no choice but to miss you

the days grow shorter, the skies grow grey
the sun never seemed to so far away
and i heard rumors that you were crying
but if i asked, you wouldn’t say

i’d love for you to bring me down
and tell me why you cry
let me try to change your mind
i want to dry your eyes

how hard

Posted on by under Girls, Sad


the leaves are losing color
soon they’ll cover lawns
but without you, it feels like
more than a season is gone

you write me letters
to keep me closer than a memory
i keep them in a notebook
labeled “Ancient History”

i guess i’ve kept my secret
i hope i will forget
i hope you never know
how hard it is to let you go

the sky was clear this morning
no clouds were bringing rain
but everything must change
now i hear the roar of planes

and i’d fly out to see you
if i had anything to say
but i ….i can wait
until your wedding day

bumblebee

i will not call you anymore (because it’s dangerous)
i will not climb a mountain just to try to fly
i promise i won’t look for you to love me
and i will not hate to hear goodbye

if you need me i am here for you (as always)
but if you need well then things are not the same
if you call me, i know the reason is selfish
if you play, i lose the game

we have been the best of friends and enemies
we have been angry and content
we have been nothing but a fantasy
we’ve been words that were never meant

you can go on living like a bumblebee
you can float from flower to flower and sting me
you can test the choices and find me true
you can write off my advice as jealousy

i’m weak to your memory (i can’t hide from it)
i’m hopeless when i try to be just friends
i’m hanging by a thread, share your life with me
i’m not willing to go through this again
i’m not willing to go through this again
i’m not willing to go through this….

goodnight, christy

Posted on by under Girls, Love


goodnight christy
wherever you are
out chasing falling stars

may God keep you
safe from harm
all wrapped up in His arms

goodnight, goodnight

blue eyes
blond hair
and your skin so fair

beautiful
on your own
but you are not alone

writhing

Posted on by under Getting Over It, Girls

find my hope weak and writhing
begging for a drink
wounded in the battle
‘tween what i feel and what i think
break it, kill it, leave it for dead
it’s too far gone to fantasy
i wish for against reality
i hope for what will never be
i’ve tried to heal and save it
but the wounds have passed straight through
i’m defenseless to the memory
of loving you

thousand times

Posted on by under Getting Over It, Girls

whispers of reminders
must convince me that you’re gone
you’re there when i sleep
but escape before the dawn

i cling to the dreams
as they are quick to fade
your memories are shadows
as i step out of the shade

how much time will it take to heal
and fix this way i’m forced to feel
i feel you near, but you’ve gone away
a thousand times a day

i pray for distraction
but refuse to forget
i’m anchored by my hope
i’m not ready yet

to see the truth i hide from
surrender to what i’ve denied
there must be a reason for
all the tears i’ve cried

missed in me

Posted on by under Girls, Sad


if i could look into your eyes
maybe it would all be clear
but if i saw through your disguise
you still wouldn’t stay here

you have to leave to chase your dreams
i have to stay and watch mine go
you can’t afford to give me hope
i can’t let you know…

i always hoped you cared for me
but i loved how you were so carefree
i’m hopelessly hopeful that someday you’ll see
everything you missed in me

what thought can i scribble down
to send you in this postcard
a picture of what you left behind
and me pretending life isn’t hard

i guess i’m no good at secrets
still don’t know what to say
i think of you, i pray for you
i hope you are ok
