She hangs onto tomorrow with the promises of today She has planned out forever and built the house of her dreams in her head. White picket fences and pretty trees out front. The large bay window to show off her Christmas tree later this year. But these promises are like all the other ones before. Broken. Bruised. Uncertain. As her tears fall and she is drowned in the sorrows of today She realizes that broken is all she will ever be Bruised is something that happens all too easily And nothing in this life will ever be certain But the promises.... they keep her hanging onto Broken. Bruised. Uncertain. One day.... she'll get it r

When sleep seems inevitable And the world finally begins to fade away The boogeyman is coming And fears begin to take over Will you succumb to his power And let him ruin your world? Or will you pull the covers over your head And allow the dreams to take flight? When everything is going your way And the sun shines bright on a cloudy day Will the rainstorms of life Flood your dreams And drown you in sorrows? Or will you hold on for the downpour to stop And look for the rainbow in the distance? There has to be hurdles In the race of time For us to fully be grateful For the battles we win. We must work even harder For the thi

My life used to be open Then I entered into this tunnel Cold Dark And alone It is a long tunnel I can see the end But it is so far away And the light is very dim There is something happening That I can't quite explain Like a torrential downpour In the middle of summer It happens all of a sudden With no explanation But leaves you Drenched And clueless Nothing in life seems to make sense Yet everything is happening for a reason I wish I could understand The extent of the lesson Without having to go through the pain Everything around me changes Everyday I open my eyes to a new world That I have to get used to all over

The feelings we run from Are things that have hurt us In the past Fear Loathing Hate Disgust But never did I think it would be Love How do you love someone So much that you run? How do you look into Someone's soul And see something wonderful And walk away? I could have loved you I could have cherished you For the rest of my life I would never have hurt you And you still ran Because you were afraid Not of me But of your own feelings You knew you could love me too

A strange peace washes over me Like an unexpected rain All of a sudden I'm alright Nothing can touch me again I can feel again Love Pain Fear Happiness I was once surrounded by Pure darkness Intermittent only with small candle lights Only to burn out and Leave me alone again Now I am washed in so much light I need sunglasses at night Darkness no longer exists I am making it through I have not crumbled Nor will I let anyone bring me To my knees again A new strength A glorious light A new me … A me that was always there But I am no longer hiding

As I sit and ponder My life over the last months I realize a lot has changed I've lost people I've loved Loved people I never thought I would And made friendships even stronger I've made a lot of mistakes I'm working on making things better And I can see the light at the end of the tunnel It's still far away But I know it's there And when it comes right down to it All that matters is I will wake up tomorrow Like I always do And face another day Of heartache Of laughter And of tears And each day makes me stronger For myself And those that will be in my future In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life

Choices to be made Paths to be taken Heartbreak will ensue Failure is inevitable But light will manifest As the sun rises On a new day Tomorrow is another chance Don't dwell on yesterday As it can't be changed Don't plan out tomorrow As you don't know what it holds Live in today Be present in this moment Make the most of what you have For nothing matters but right now

As the full moon rises in the night sky My heart aches to feel you Although I know somewhere in time You are with me You feel so far away And I am alone Just one breath of you To fulfill me until morning comes To send me into dreamland Where you and I are one Just one kiss to make me safe A lingering glance to know I'm home But I am alone This is my path, my course I know that one day I will find you And the sun will never set on our love Until then I know you're out there Somewhere waiting for me too I know I'll love you I know you're there But in this moment, I am alone

I have the kind of love That little girl's dream of A love so tender and pure That it engulfs me in happiness Until I surrender to the safety of her arms And the world dissipates around us And we are lost in each others eyes I have something That movies are made of Sparks flying Intense passion and longing Honesty of words and touch Sincerity of heart Truth in a glance Peace in a heartbeat This kind of love Isn't found everyday Not in books or movies But in souls that connect On such an honest level I can not imagine life without her I never want to let her go Every time she walks into a room My heart flutters Every t

Walk away I am strong I can do this without you I don't need you Not that vulnerable I refuse to believe I've let you in that close Walk away I am independent You were merely a bonus I can breathe without you I can live on my own You were just an addition Not completion Walk away The world will continue to turn Life will go on as expected My smile will still shine As I slowly die inside
