The Puzzle

Rip, rip, rip
Tear, tear, tear
Slowly the tiny pieces fall to the ground
So small we don't even realise it's falling apart.
So small that even if we did know, we couldn't regather them.
The longer the pieces fall, the bigger they get
The more noticable they become.
Before we no it they become too large to pick up.
And the small pieces that used to hold them together,
Were gone long ago.
No matter how big a puzzle is, it's never complete without the
smallest piece.
Do you have all you pieces?

Fragile

Today is one of those days for me,
You know the ones I'm talking about,
The days you feel so weak, so helpless,
Where you just want to crawl back into bed in your fragile state of
mind.
Because you are afraid that people will break through the barrier today.
Afraid that maybe today just isn't your day.
We all have these days, when you feel like any conflict is going to
make you cry.
It's nobodys fault, and nothing has happened to make you feel this
way. It's just the way today is meant to be I guess.
We just have to step lightly, not say to much and just keep to
ourselves. If we stay out if the way of others then we should be fine,
we should make it through the next 24 hours.
Today isn't my day, maybe it isn't yours either.
But there will always be a tomorrow, we will live to fight another day.

Butterflies

As the tables turn and the melodies ring out; our hearts play and
dance and beat in time, floating free like butterflies lingering in
the summer's evening breeze. It's these care free moments that shape
our happiness and forge that smile upon our face, a smile so strong we
couldn't fake a frown if we wanted to. We wouldn't dare be different
from ourselves, absorbed into our own little world. Laughing at
laughter, smirking at smiles. Being silly, just because we can.
Perfectly harmless and happy... Uncomplicated... Simple, the way life
should be. Its these moments that will become our greatest memories.
No matter where life will take us, we will look back and smile. These
memories have shaped me. Let your heart and soul take you on a wayward
journey.... Take the path less travelled...be that someone
different... Be that butterfly in the breeze.

That's Okay

3 words, I “Something” You, it seems saying these three words is harder than finding that “something”. We all know what that “something” is…Love.
See, that wasn’t so difficult, was it?
I know you don’t love me, that’s okay,
I know you love him, and that’s okay too.
I’ll still chase you like a lovesick puppy.
We’ll have our fun, like we have been.

I love how we can be when we are with each other. And even though it may mean nothing to you, it means the world to me.
I love the way you look at me
I love the way you always smile
I love the way you wrap your arms around me
I love the way your hands find mine even in the dark
I love the way you kiss me, on my lips and on my neck
I love the few mornings I get to wake up beside you
I love the way you let me be myself when I’m with you
I love the way we can plan our fake wedding, covering every detail.
I love everything about you. I won’t lie; I want you to be mine.

It’s never going to happen, but that’s okay.
People think I’m stupid, they try warning me not to get to attached because it could end in heartbreak. That’s true, and probably right, but doesn’t everything end in heartbreak. At the moment I’m happy. Why ruin that?
Sure the day will come that you will move on, but that’s okay.
I think I’m prepared for that, doesn’t mean I’m giving up on you though.
Maybe one day it’ll happen, but if it doesn’t, that’s okay.
One day you might hear me say those 3 words, you might run, you might not and maybe you might just say them back; I don’t know, but that’s okay.
I’m happy now, thanks to you.
People don’t approve of us, but as long as I have you, I’ll be okay.

Run or Stay?

Half of me is saying run, the other half is saying stay. Run and
forget? Or stay and hurt? It shouldn't be a hard decision, but it is.
You've got my head in a spin girl. You know I want you, I know you
don't want me. Why is it a hard decision? How much punishment am I
going to put myself through before I learn? I would do anything and
everything, but still get nothing. The worst thing is knowing exactly
what the outcome will be. I'm in too deep to pull myself out. I'm only
opening myself up to get hurt again, shattered again. Question is...
how much can you take, before it breaks you..?

Help!

I'm afraid to live this life sober, without the alcoholic silhouette
the world would be much colder. I look through these jealous eyes, and
see a happier you without me by your side. Trying to paint a new
picture, that will only be tarred with the same brush like those who
have gone before. I can't stand the pain, but I can't be the real me
without it. I can't hide it! Screaming to fade away, into the shadows
where I'll never have to be seen. We were never warned, never helped,
just left to suffer, expected to learn from mistakes that we haven't
made yet. Told to keep holding on by people who have already let go.
When we finally figure out what not to do, it's too late. We have
already ran our course... Our fate of failure. We all want it, we all
need it, but we are all to afraid to ask for it... HELP!

Promises

I can't promise you the world,
I can't promise you I'll be rich,
I can't promise that I'll always say the right things,
I can't promise that I'll always get it right,
I can't promise you diamonds or gold,
I can't promise to take you nice places,
I can't promise I'll never hurt you,
I can't promise that I won't make you cry.

I promise that I will try,
I promise that I'll tell you that you're gorgeous everyday, because
you are everyday.
I promise to be by your side no matter what.
I promise I will do all in my power to see you smile everyday.
I promise to pick you up when you fall,
I promise that for as long as you're willing to have me, I want to be
yours.
This I promise...
