Secrets

A hidden past
A locked up dream
A frightened little girl
A shrieking scream

A memory never remembered
An awful night
A poor little girl
A flashback with eyes closed tight
    -August 3,1997


Holding You

Watching you from a distance
Wanting to be near
Holding you close in my heart
Holding you close and dear

I'll always remember the way you kissed me
And the way you held me tight
Wishing you could remember too
Because it always felt so right

Looking into your light blue eyes
I always knew it was true
It will always be true for me
I wish you could feel it too
    -November 1996


Damn You

Damn you 
You let me hold you too tight
Damn you 
You let me give up without a fight

Go to hell
for so soon replacing me
Go to hell
that's where I want you to be

Kiss my ass
because I loved you for all you were
Kiss my ass
because instead of me you picked her

You're an asshole
for ruining the trust I once had
You're an asshole
because I still love you and that makes me mad!

F*R*I*E*N*D*S

You've always been there
to care about me
You're a good friend
how all best friends should be

You'd hug me if I needed it
because you always care
If I made a silly mistake,
you would still be there

If I have a broken heart,
I can always count on you
If I get my feelings hurt,
you always know what to do

You always listen 
to what I have to say
This is me thanking you 
in my own special way

Showing Love

Some people show love with a carve in a tree
Some people show love by bending on a knee
Some people show love with arrows and hearts
But even some people show love without knowing their parts

I would like to show love but don't know how
I would like to give you my single vow
I would like to show love with a sweet little kiss
But I'm afraid the arrow I shoot to your heart will miss

You

I love you with all of myself
Although, I've never met you
I've given my heart to you
Yet, I've never touched you
You are so beautiful to me
Though, I've never seen you
I tell you all of my secrets
Still, I've never heard your voice
You are my best friend
But, I don't know you
I dream about you at night
Although, I still can't see you

My Best Friend

Today I found my best friend
Yet she's always been there for me
I didn't know she cared
She's how all friends should be

She never interrupts me
She doesn't mind my bad hair day
She isn't judgemental of me
And she's always willing to stay

She understands all of my problems
And she cries when I cry
She's the only person I can really trust
To me, she cannot lie

I looked in the mirror
And I saw she looked like me
My best friend is myself
But how can this be?   --Aug. 13, 1997



I don't know how to feel
I don't know what to do
Did you tell me to blink now?
Am I supposed to breathe too?   --Aug. 3, 1997
