Resentment


Am I that selfish 
Or I am I just jealous
Of your ability
To make it all about you
Even when it's about me
And I find it frustrating 
When the original point gets misconstrued 
Then the guilt seeps in
For the anger I point at you.

The Girl Is Gone


When I'm staring at the mirror
Unconnected from reflections of a 
Person I used to love
Now I barely recognize the girl.
Things that I fear numb the best of
The vibrancy I should see in the world.
Where did she go,
When did she become so cold

Where did she go?
The girl I once knew
Who had such brave confidence
Who's limitations were few
Somewhere Far in between
here and everything
With emotions misconstrued
Wishing just to fit the mold
Seeking relevance,
Where did the girl go?

Invisible


Can you see me?
This invisibility has me feeling stranded

When The Walls Come Down


Mind set on seeing everything 
I can't reign you in
When you're looking for what else is out there
Everywhere's somewhere to begin.

You can search the whole world over
And do most everything
When you come back to find me
Don't expect me to be waiting. 

When the walls come down
And you're sifting through your past
Go back to the place in your mind
Where you saw me last. 
Chasin your own shadow 
Flickered glimpses you can't grasp 
A pretty dream diminished in the darkness absence cast.

If You think it's easy for me
You're far from the mark
I trusted you entirely,
And you trampled on my heart
All I ask is that you recognized
What you've done to me
And I'm glad I've seen with my own eyes
The monster you can be

You have to live with what your chosen
Unfortunately so do I 
I hope the pain will weaken
As more time passes by
Why did you have to be so deceiving
You totally had me believing.   

But When the walls come down
And you're sifting through your past
Go back to the place in your mind
Where you saw me last. 
Chasin your own shadow 
Flickered glimpses you can't grasp 
A pretty dream diminished in the darkness absence cast.

Damn the Unexpected


Damn the unexpected
In this life I've been subjected
To too Many things
I just wanted everything
On track and do much more 
They say when God closes a door
He open a window

Can't give you everything
Like I promised the world would be yours
Now here I'm standing
Unable to provide for my two little girls 
And the reality is that I'm trying my best 
But the failure's so real it keeps pains in my chest
So tired of struggling
I know there's somebody listening 

Insecurities overrunning me
Running circles in this life I lead
Crazy head won't let me be 
It's a reach finding sanity
But I won’t let them down...
Right now failure is the only sound
I hear dissapointment loud and clear
But I’ll run the other way
They deserve it and I’ll pay
any price it might take.
Two little hearts I’ll never break.

Save My Pain


Save my pain for a rainy day
So much it might break me
Like the rain it won't go away. 
Need somewhere peaceful to be. 
Sing three little birds 
Think of happy times behind me.
What has become of my dreams
Of a happy ending?
