Music

You speak to me, in ways I never knew  It's amazing how you see right through  You're like a warm embrace on a cold night And you make every situation feel so right   You speak to my heart, so true and pure Pain is a disease and you are a cure You're able to define the emotions we feel You’re the only thing that's pure and real   Even without a voice, you speak a million words You bring people together from all over the world The power you hold is second to none And you're our friend when we have no one   You are heard everywhere and loved by all You've held my hand and caught me as I fall Whether I'm happy or sad, you'll always be there You don't even know me, but I know you care   Crossing cultural, racial, and ethnic divides You yourself are a language that provides No matter the message, everyone listens You speak to through every note written   You understand without so much as a question You truly are the world's greatest invention Without ...

Ghost

There you are, a distant memory  A ghost that continues to haunt me Just a reminder of the love I feel Another chapter in a story surreal I've trusted my heart, I have no regrets And You were as real as real could get All I wanted was to love you and be true  Because I always saw the real you  I saw the pain and the darkness within And the shadows you've tried to hide them in  I've seen the truth, I've seen your heart And I've known you right from the start  I understand why I wasn't right  And I know why you weren't willing to fight The fault is mine, and mine alone And that's why I, am still on my own I guess there just wasn't meant to be A future for the likes of you and me Not romantically, but maybe as friends  And yet if you need me, I'll be there till the end  Will I hold it against you? no I won't  Do I regret anything? No I don't  The heart wants what the heart wants  And it's my heart that you will always haunt  In th...

Cursed Hearts

Those with golden hearts Are cursed from the start  They feel more than others  And as such, they suffer  They love unconditionally  And make decisions irrationally  They cling to glimmers of hope  Cos it's the only way they cope  But they're often put to the test And they hurt more than the rest Cos they are driven by empathy  And are clouded by sympathy  Easily open and freely used  And quite often they are abused   Hearts that thrive on loyalty Honesty, love, and integrity They give too much too soon And they never end up immune To pain, to suffering, and grief It always seems like there's no relief No matter how good the intentions They don't even get an honorable mention It's almost a law that is unspoken That hearts of gold always end up broken

Toxicity

Who is good for us and who isn't? Who improves us and who doesn't? It's up to us to choose, though it is tough  Who we want by our sides, when life gets rough  Friendships are a dime a dozen, that's a fact  And everyone claims that they have your back As we get older, everything changes  Even best friends, can end up strangers  But it's up to us, it's our call to make Even if the decision is or ends up a mistake  And though looking out for ourselves is a must It is important to know who we can trust  Because we all fester about who will be there, And sometimes we're blind to people who really care  Communication is another essential  Because a lack of it, can be a defining differential  We can a do lot by just reaching out to each other  And resolve any issues we have with one another  If we accept our faults, we can progress more  As human beings we have to, in order to grow  It’s easy to blame others for our shortco...

Emotions

We’re all driven by our emotions By how we feel, in any situation We're built for both joy and pain Even if it drives us all insane It's the way of the world we live in Even if sometimes it feels like a prison That's human nature, how it's meant to be We feel everything we touch, hear and see Love, happiness, pain, and sadness Stress, frustration, anger, and madness Our emotions can break us or keep us intact Because they always determine how we react Our reactions are based on what we feel And sometimes it clouds fake from real Emotions also define how we see others And sometimes dictates how we treat one another They can unite and separate people And give us strength or make us feeble We're born with free will to make our own choices And we have a right to use our own voices But our voices aren't always strong Because sometimes they can steer us wrong So think about the feelings, each and every day Because in reality, our emotions can lead us astray

Who said?

Everyone has something to say About the things, we do every day Everyone’s entitled to use their voice Whether we listen or not, is our choice People always try to cut us down But it’s up to us to swim or drown Like actions, even words can hurt Where it comes from, defines its worth Sometimes unexpected stones are cast And it’s clear some things aren’t meant to last But how important are the voices we hear? How much does it hurt when the truth is clear? Don't listen to irrational and idle chatter Think about whose opinion really matters If it questions the foundations of loyalty and trust Then weighing the pros and cons is a must So before all of it gets in your head Just ask yourself, who said?

Loyalty

Sometimes we never know What's real and what's a show We take People at face value Without knowing what's true We trust without blinking And love without thinking We confess and we confide Thinking nothing can divide But sometimes we get hurt The ones we trust, slinging dirt And then their truth is revealed Their agenda's no longer concealed And the pain is almost numbing Because we never saw it coming And the ones we feel will never break Cause the most painful heartache But that's just how life works out Not all friendships go all out That may be a hard pill to swallow Betrayal can make anyone feel hollow Friendship is more than time spent It's not transactional, there's no rent It's more than drinks and companionship And it's more than just a relationship It's support through good and bad It's a hug when you're happy or sad It's unconditional love and respect Without ever knowing what to expect Above all...
