Silently Wishing
Tears are streaming,
falling down her face,
her mouth opens
but no sound comes out,
She silently wishes
for you to listen
for you to understand
that she meant no harm,
But the damage is done
No turning back
no undoing those words
that were said,
She wants you to know
that she is sorry,
but she just can’t say it
for the fear of your reaction,
But she wishes
you’d listen
to those silent words
those words that will never be said,
But she wishes you might see
she really cares,
that she’d never leave you
or how much she loves you,
But from her view
she sees that you are hurting
and you only seemed to be wanting a new life,
so she reaches for your arms for one last time,
but they are not there when she reaches for them,
tears are streaming
falling down her face,
she wishes for you to listen,
for you to understand
but now she knows that you won’t
so she says goodbye
then slowly walks into the lurking darkness
where she’ll wait
for the day when you’ll take notice
of the tears and words that are never said.

I’m Being Forgotten
Alone, sad, gloomy
Once loved but not anymore
Seen but not heard
Heard but not seen
I'm being Forgotten,
*
Withholding, left out, cast aside
Once mighty and strong
Cursed and swore
Sought revenge
I'm being Forgotten,
*
Me, myself, and I
All once loved
We cried night and day
But no one cared
I'm being Forgotten,
*
You, yourself
Could hardly imagine
The turmoil within
This dying soul
I'm being Forgotten,
*
I'm left here
I've been forgotten
In this isolated place
In the depth of my mind
I'm being Forgotten,
*
My Savior, my God
Can you hear my cries?
You're so out of reach
I've slipped out of your hand,
I'm being Forgotten,
*
Where were you?
When I fell into darkness
You have drifted away
From my sight, now I'm crying
Because I'm being Forgotten.
I Am The One
I am the one who's in control of my life
Some may say that my past is what defines me
But it doesn't, it's what happens here in the present
That defines me as a person.
But I am the one who's in control of my life,
No one can control it for me,
I am not just a label that others put onto me
But I am my own person,
But I am the one who's in control of my life
Yeah, I have had made stupid mistakes
But I am not going to be held back from those failures
I am learning from my mistakes and I'm striving to be a better
But I am the one who's in control of my life
I love to enjoy life as it is right now
And I will no longer dwell on the past
I will start looking forward towards a better tomorrow
But I am the one who's in control of my life
And nobody else can make me do something I don't want to
Because I have my own free will
And I have the right to speak my mind and thoughts.
