HOME

I remember that corner
its where I first laughed.
I don't remember when or why
but I remember going back to it
whenever I was sad.

This room is where I thought I knew love,
a stupid crush of an age gone by.
Making small hearts and writing stupid poetry
keeping things hidden because
it was that way.

I love this bed, it kept me safe
from ghosts and nightmares.
I sought its comfort in times of distress.
Its seen better years but its still cozy.
It welcomes me though I've outgrown it.

Its a vague memory but its here,
running to this corner and crying
till my eyes were red.
never thinking I'll be happy again
and here I am happier than ever.

Its time to move away now,
don't know when I'll be back again.
Its farther away than ever before,
can't promise how long it'll be.
But as long as I am able
I'll find my way back to you.

HOPE

FINDING SOLACE IN THE DEPTHS OF MY HEART
HOPING FOR PEACE AND STRENGTH FOR A NEW START.

IT HURTS YOU KNOW THE CONSTANT FIGHTS,
CAN'T OVERLOOK SO MANY WRONGS FOR ONE RIGHT.

LIKE DAGGERS WE PIERCE EACH OTHER
NOTHINGS LEFT BUT HURT AND BOTHER.

RUNNING BLOOD MIX WITH THE TEARS
BUT STAYING APART IS OUR BIGGEST FEAR.
HOW DO WE TURN AROUND FROM HERE?

DOES THE NEXT JUNCTION LEAD TO SOMEPLACE NEW?
THE TIME IS PASSING AND THE CHANCES LEFT ARE FEW.

THE DARKNESS OVERBEARS BUT I STILL HOPE
STAY WITH ME, LET ME HELP YOU COPE.

THEIR IS LIGHT AT THE END OF THIS TUNNEL
I WANT A FUTURE AND I HAVE NOT GIVEN UP,
PROVE ME RIGHT DARLING, HOLD MY HAND
EMBRACE ME WITH YOUR WARMTH AND 
KEEP WHAT WE HAVE ALIVE.
