the power of a simple word

You.

Just one word that can mean so much.

But to me, you are a murderer.

You murdered my happiness, my dreams, and my heart.

Yet, it is a true miracle how I still live on.

The promise that someone sincerely meant,

The words that saved me from your vicious, cruel harmful act.

"You're strong, and here I am with my arms out wide to hold and protect you. To never shatter you, and to never let you forget how far you've come."

The funny thing is,

You're the one who is supposed to say that to me.

Not to ruin me.

Such a small word,

But you bring such meaning to it.

I hope you know that you have destroyed a vast part of my life,

I know that I will live on,

But still,

It hurts more than words can describe,

All thanks to,

You.

Reflections

Look in the mirror,

tell me what you see

Is it you or is it me?

Sometimes you try too hard,

To be someone else

You have to look inside yourself,

To find the real you.

You have to be true to yourself,

You cannot be masked

Because it shows through

No matter how much you try to hide,

The real you will forever be inside.

Where the Dreams Go

Where the dreams go,

I will never know

Up in the sky,

Or down far enough to say good-bye.

Maybe they sit in the dream catchers net,

Or maybe they sleep in the dark television set

They might frolic all day,

Like a child at play

But where the dreams go,

I shall never know

Hero

Have you ever missed someone that had to die?
And you just sit and wonder why?
He was so young, died at twenty-three,
So much more to life that he didn't even get to see
He will always be loved,
Knowing he is above
He will always be in my heart,
Even though we are far apart
He will always be my hero,
And all my tears will truly show

Life is a Mystery

Life is a mystery,

A half written note

A suspenseful end to a chapter,

Or who is going to croak

Life is a mystery,

Depends on what you do

Life is a mystery,

It is all up to you
