DREAMS SHATTERED
Hurting souls are aching
all into the night,
something that is special
just doesn't seem quite right.
Why is this so affecting
that hurting tears can't hide,
that pounding in your chest
that is killing you inside.
You care so much and wish
that it could be so different,
instead your life is turning
into an everlasting torment.
While he sleeps so soundly
you are only in lost into your dreams,
you know nothing anymore
and nothing is how it seems.
You can actually feel your heart
breaking and tearing you up inside,
Your outer shell is collapsing
while your innerside collides.
Your life is no longer worth it
he is all you'll ever need,
you want to take his hand
and follow where he may lead.
You want him everyday
because you thought he loved you too,
you try so hard to forget
but can't help crave his arms around you.
But for now the wishing grows
and the emptiness moves in,
your imagination is all a dream
but you know that you must win!
When you stop hurting is
the day that you will feel,
that one day you will find
a love that is real.
Until then you must suffer
and remember those cutting words,
that in a second made you realize
that your dreams are suddenly shattered.

A WORD OF WARNING
Don't ever fall in love, my friend
You'll find it doesn't pay
Although it causes broken hearts
It happens everyday.
You'll wonder where he is at night
And wonder if he's true
One moment you'll be happy
The next you'll be blue.
Each time you chance to meet him
Your heart begins to dance
Your world revolves around him
There's nothing like romance.
Then it happens, and you don't know why
You worry every night
Yes, my friend, you're losing him
Love never turns out right.
Love is fine, but hurts too much
The price you pay is high
If you could choose love or death
I think I'd rather die.
For when I say don't fall in love
You'll be hurt before it's through
You see my friend, I ought to know
I fell in love with you.

People's greatest need in life is to feel loved
Their vulnerbility weakens,
And a shadow of deceit is awaiting
To make its move - that's when it happens.
The fantasy takes over the mind
Nothing is real anymore,
We are forced fiercely into a closet
And we can't even hear the shut of the door.
We don't see it happening
We are so naive,
But, we don't even see it
Until our greatest fantasy leaves.
A broken heart is left
And who is to blame?
We are- it is our fault
We couldn't see through a game.
A knock on the door
Someone to take their place,
So, we jump right in forgetting
The hurt, the game, the chase.

CLASS RING
Close by the door
he paused to stand,
as he took his class ring
off of her hand.
All who were watching
did not dare speak
as a silent tear
ran down his cheek.
All through his mind
the memories ran,
of the moments they laughed
and played in the sand.
But now her eyes look
so terribly cold,
he will never have her
again to hold.
They watchen in silence
as he bent down near,
to whisper "I Love You"
softly in her ear.
Touching her face
he started to cry,
he put on his ring
and wanted to die.
And just as the wind
started to blow,
they lowered her casket
deep in the snow.

THE SUBCONSCIOUS STATE OF MIND
I have fallen to the greatest depth of despair.
It just started with one tiny step.
A consequential step that lead to an even more elaborate one.
The bigger the steps got, the blurrier my rationalization became.
I have become closer and closer to living in a world of imagination.
All of my painful problems are suddenly washed away.
Right along with the real world I once lived in.
I am falling completely out of control into a state of insanity.
As I fall, it gets much darker and steeper.
My past is no longer remembered and the present is only an image.
Before I land, I shed a heartache tear of relief.
I have made my destination.
I have made it to the bottom.
My nightmare is almost over.
My endless mystery will remain endless.
No one will find me.

LOVE
To love is the greatest gift
To look into another's eyes and see them shine inside
To tell them I love you
To even lose your life for that certain someone
How great that love
But to be loved
How sweet the feeling
But how bitter the hate
As you grow together or sometimes apart
To share a lifetime, or to spend a second
As long as I can see you, that's all I ask
I love your smile,a nd that cute little laugh
Your my best friend, my only love
As we walk hand in hand
Down the road of life
I look into your eyes, and I see myself,
And as struggles come along
And we face them together
I promise that we will last forever.
Your hand I will never let loose,
Your love forever in my heart.
And when you trun to me at night,
Then the words that come out so sweet " I love you."
Then I know in my heart tha tyou love me back.
The joy I can't forget.
My life is now complete.
So why are you leaving me now?
A hole so deep in depth;
My heart a million tiny pieces,
Yet your love seems so close.
I see you each day, yet it's not the same;
I cherish each moment
Because the end comes so fast.
A blink of my eye and your gone forever.
My love forever loss.
Those times I'll never forget.
The love and the lost
Each day comes and each day goes
I see you happy,
And I wonder why?
Cause inside I'm slowly dying,
Come back to me, my only love.
Fulfill my life, and make me whole
I hope the best
And remember this
Wherever you go, and whatever you do
I will always love you
Forever and ever
Time cannot stop how I feel
Nor keep my heart from belonging to you
And death itself cannot stop me from loving you
What we had was worth a million
I love you forever, and ever and ever.
