After the War

Rubble everywhere.
The brutal past cannot compare.
Our new beginning arrived
I cant believe that I survived.

We all made it alive
Will our newest hope thrive?
The war is over
It's time to start all over again.

Tonight I will rebuild my home
At least I know I'm still not alone
We all woke up from this nightmare
And now we ask ourselves if life will be fair?

We all made it alive
Will our newest hope thrive?
The war is over
It's time to start all over again.

During The War

The day we've been waiting for has finally come!
Our work against oppression will now be done!
We've been preparing for months, the stage has been set.
Now it's time to act on our freedom we will get.

Our many years of pain are now over (many years of pain)
The world will soon wake up and be sober

We no longer stand alone,
We can now take care of our own
and eachother one step at a time
We'll sing our songs in perfect rhyme

Our many years of pain are now over (many years of pain)
The world will soon wake up and be sober 

Before The War

I stood still taking beatings from my past
With my mouth shut.
These nightmares amassed
mark my soul right before it's cut.

I cant take it anymore!
What is this oppression for?
And if I stay
I cant run away.
I hid my feelings for many years
I wont let our woes fall on deaf ears.
A war is coming...

The blood of innocents stains your hands.
Many obeyed your insensitive commands,
everyone paid the price
of what your actions did entice.

I cant take it anymore!
What is this oppression for?
And if I stay
I cant run away.
I hid my feelings for many years
I wont let our woes fall on deaf ears.
A war is coming...

Daughter of Disgrace (Birthday Poem)

Unwanted
She was brought into this world.
On this very day,
the day her procreators never wanted to come.
The day their terrible secret would be out.
The day that would bring shame to their name.
And the shame lives on 23 years later.
The shame and disgrace that tarnished their names.
And not only their names...
Their families' names too.
If they would've had a boy,
maybe the problem would've been overlooked.
But no,
they had a premature,
weak,
frail,
unfit and undesirable
daughter.
A daughter whose life would bring
a never ending stream of shame.
Shame, embarrasment, woes and disgrace.
She was never pretty,
never popular,
never dressed "right"
never followed the beliefs her parents
tried to drill into her head,
loves men and women,
and the poor soul never wanted to change!
She was never what her family wanted her
to be.
Not even close.
The story repeated itself many years later.
But the disgraced daughter
saw things differently.
With an open heart,
and a smile on her face,
She welcomed her daughter into the world,
and she was not disgraced.

I am the disgraced daughter.
Though my family is ashamed of me,
I'm proud of the woman
that I have become.

Untitled 2

Im a nerd
and a goth.
I'm the girl
the world ignores.
Nobody knows my name
but I don't play that game.
I sit in the back of the class.
It's popularity I lack,
but I dont care.
And there you are...
Constantly surrounded by girls
with pretty eyes
and pretty hair.
You're very popular.
Everyone knows you...
So do I
Of course, it seems that
Im invisible to you,
but that is not always the case.
Unlike all the popular guys,
You're kind.
You're not a jerk,
You smile at everyone.
You want to be everyone's friend,
even mine.
But I also want to be more than your friend...
Im in love with you.
But, because you're constantly surrounded by pretty girls,
I dont have a chance.
I wish I could tell you,
but I'm afraid.
Im afraid of scaring you away
and losing your friendship.
Besides,
It would suck to be picked on for being with me, right?
Imagine...
A handsome popular guy
with a nerdy goth?
I wish for a chance to be with you
but it seems rather impossible.
We don't have much in common.
You go out and I stay in.
You play sports and I write poems.
You seem confident and Im too shy.
Everyone knows you and I'm invisible.
Girls chase you and guys don't remember that I exist.
Sometimes you forget it too,
but I dont blame you.
I dont exist. Period.
I dont care if I exist to anyone else,
As long as I exist to you,
That's all that matters.

I Miss You So Much

I miss you so much
Day by day
Night by night
Whenever I miss you,
it feels like a spring
with no flowers blooming,
and not a single blade
of grass growing.
A night sky with no stars
shining brightly.
A forest with no trees,
a branch with no leaves.
A river with no water flowing.
A book with no story.
A canvas with no brushstrokes.
A musical staff without a single note.
It's hard to put it into words,
but maybe you'd get an idea if you saw
the tears running down my face
every night I go to sleep.
Or is it still not enough?
This brain of mine never stops thinking of you.
This beating heart of mine longs for you.
My wandering soul keeps searching for you.
My empty arms need something to hold,
but you're not here.
Oh! How long will this torture last?
I miss you so much

Thank You For Being Who You Are

You are so beautiful
inside and out
You have a big heart
so kind and pure
You only want to bring
good things to this world
Your actions can change it
You help bring smiles
to everyone's faces
You make people happy
when they are sad
You inspire others
to believe in the impossible
You bring out the best
in everyone around you
You bring the meaning
of the words "love," "courage,"
and "friendship" to life
I know that one day
you're going to change the world
and make it a better place
You taught me that anything is possible
even when others say
that I can't do anything
I know why you do this
It's what you want
You can't help it
Life will reward you
many, many times
Thank you for being who you are
