All I wanted

All I ever wanted was to be with you To be your first good morning And your last good night To be the one who was always there At your side through thick and thin To be a shoulder you can lean on And to make you laugh and smile I wanted to feel your hand in mine As we walked beneath moonlit skies I wanted to sit with you in the sand And watch the sunset into the sea I wanted to hold you in my arms And run my fingers through your hair I wanted to feel your warm embrace And hug as you fall asleep on my chest I wanted to listen to all your stories And hear all about your day I wanted to take away all your fears And be your knight in shining armour I wanted to be your best friend And to love you unconditionally I wanted us to be together forever To live our lives side by side And be partners in everything we do But this was not to be, And I had to face the truth My love for you was wasted, Because you didn't feel the same I still want...

Unspoken

There's so much that goes unsaid so much unresolved and not put to bed and when we finally say it, it's too late the universe has already decided our fate If only we could all be so bold and say those things that go untold express the feelings hidden deep within and maybe we'll see something new begin We don't realise how much we suppress or the power of the words we don't express words like 'I'm sorry' and 'I'm miss you' get lost and we don't know what hiding them actually costs It's too late when we actually find out, we curse and moan that we didn't shout don't let anyone perceive you as weak just because you were afraid and didn't speak Be it joy, frustration, love or even anger use words wisely or you'll end up a stranger it's human nature that we don't want to get hurt but there's always a risk of ending up in the dirt Most times our actions speak louder than words we believ...

Perception

Wow, I can’t believe I've been so blind as to why this world has become so unkind I almost ashamed that it took this long for me to understand that I was oh so wrong I've only blamed myself for all my scars never thinking once that I strayed so far my dependency on friends was a big mistake cos I couldn’t distinguish between real from fake I didn't care at all about how the world saw me cos ultimately, what you get is what you see now I understand why people just walk away guess people just got sick of seeing me this way true, we should never judge a book by its cover especially when someone’s life has turned sour but if they open up, regardless of a platform? do we walk away or help them weather the storm? most times we assume that they’re crying wolf even though we never really have any proof that people who cry out are nothing but faking imagine the toll that walking away is taking that's how unkind the world is and now I kno...

Inside Voice

It's almost an art form, bottling it all up Not saying a word and letting your blood boil Showing a smile to the world, staying strong Yet crying and letting go behind closed doors, Though it doesn't really work for everyone, Cos some hearts can only take so much Until they boil over and the rage kicks in And you lose control of your emotions Sometimes losing control is perceived as weak It ostracizes people and overshadows everything Any and all good deeds go down the drain pipe And you're left to tangle with your troubles alone But is it really weak to accept your pain? And want company during hard times? Is it really fair to ostracize the already lonely? When all they ever wanted was a friend? You feel your nightmares become real All your dreams dissappear before you And your past will haunt you everyday No choice, you just have to live through it Your heart, beating broken beats and so hollow That empty, lonely feeling of remorse inside The d...
