Knowing

All my life I’ve known,
Known that I was worthless,
Known that life was meaningless,
Known that nobody cared.
I walked with my head down
Trying to hide the fear within,
And the pain written on my face.
I’m scarred deep in my soul
And some open wounds fester,
It’s ugly in the depths of my being,
A place not many have seen.
I didn’t know where to turn
I felt lost and all alone,
And then I saw the light.
I truly met the one
That can fix the hurt inside,
Now I walk with my head held high,
I know I’ve got a plan,
I know somebody loves me,
And I know that I have worth.

Beginning Anew

Walking through a crowd,
A crowd of new faces,
Some are quiet and some loud,
They’re all from different places

Smiles rain down as I pass them by
Wandering in a new direction
I look all around and sigh a big sigh
Because this happiness spreads like an infection

Here is where the past doesn’t matter
It is here I begin a new life
So I join in with all the laughter
Because I’ve forgotten about all the strife

So I lift my arms and dance
Because no one knows me
And they can see in a glance
That I’m all I can be.

Sky Dancing

I’m flying through the sky
At a 100 miles an hour
But I wish that I could fly
Under my own power

I wanna dance with a cloud
And the birds of the air
I wanna sing out loud
And let down my hair

You’ll be on the ground
While I’m dancing in the air
You’ll be safe and sound
When I’m flying up there

You’ll never feel any pain
But I’ll be truly living
Flying in the fast lane
While at home you’re sitting


Because I live every day
Like it was my last
So I laugh and I play
And I don’t regret the past

I don’t know how to fly
Under my own power
But I know I’m gonna try
And become a sky diver

What If...

Do you ever wonder "what if?"
What if we'd given that spark a chance?
What if we could have found romance?
But now all that's left is "what if?"

What if I'd tried harder?
Tried to get past the distance
Instead of putting up all that resistance?
But all I did was act the martyr.

What if you'd tried to hold on?
Fight for my deep affection,
But you ran in the other direction,
Til your heart was long gone.

What if we'd opened up again?
Laid bare out hearts once more?
Really looked deep into the core?
But... what if it was all in vain?

Betrayal

Betrayal leaves a bitter taste behind
And a hollow pit in your stomach,
My eyes are full of unshed tears,
And in my back there’s a knife.

Our friendship was on a firm foundation,
Our trust was a rope of steel,
But today that friendship crumbled,
And that rope was cut in twain.

So where do we go from here?
How long will this take to heal?
I feel our lives diverging
And your hand slipping slowly away.

To My Dearest Friend

I think that it's time to say goodbye,
Yes, you've been with me for years now
But I think that I need to be strong and let go,
Though it'll be hard-going without you.

You've always been there for me,
You caught my broken-hearted tears
And comforted me when I was down,
You never cared that I hugged you too tight.

Only you understand my fear of the night,
You've heard me whimper when I held you close,
Like a night guard you've protected me,
I fear no goblins or monsters when you're around.

But I'm getting older now,
I'm moving out into the great wide world,
I'll miss you more than I can say,
But I have to fight my own battles now.

Farewell, Teddy Bear.

Ode to my Air Conditioner

In tropical climates air conditioners are a must have :D

The sweat drips down my sad face,
The day is hot and sticky,
My feet drag at a slow pace,
I’m so tired and icky!

I stumble into my room,
Feeling like roasted mutton,
The heat is oppressive doom,
I press that magic button.

Oh, Air Con! I feel that breeze!
Your cool air lifts my spirit,
You put me at instant ease,
The heat, you do not fear it.

When humidity rises
And the sun scorches the ground,
Whatever the degree is
You will always be around.

Sometimes I doubt your power,
Sometimes coolness goes unfelt,
But faithful to the hour,
You will never let me melt!

Oh, Air Con! I need you please!
Your powers I’ll never doubt!
For it’s me the heat will seize
Unless you wrestle it out.

Oh, Air Con! You are supreme!
You’re much better than the fan,
To say “not” would be blaspheme!
You’re better than any man.
