Hope

Let it go

There comes a time when you must admit defeat,

When there's nothing left, and you must take a seat.

Think over the events that lead you here,

and face what it is you truly fear.

You've given it your all, put up a good fight.

Followed every order with all your might.

To please that someone you've wronged before.

To make up for the pain that still remains for sure.

They held your heart in their hands, knowing they had the power.

To get back at you for making them hurt, for being a coward.

We make mistakes, this much is true.

But we both played our parts, so what do we do?

I wasn't ready for you then, you're not ready for me now.

You still hold the scars of your past, hung heavy like a cowl.

How can you live if you won't get over your past?

How do you expect a great show while keeping the same cast?

I'll always be here

You’re worried I’d forget my past.

The lights will blind me and leave you last.

You think I’ll become egotistical,

Never again try to be civil

You think I’m going to leave you behind.

My attention will be taken, I won’t have time.

You’re sure I’ll find another.

Let go of the promise of us forever.

You’re scared I’m going too fast.

My shadow is all that you catch.

You can lay your worries to rest,

No need to fear.

For there’s one thing I will always promise,

It’s that I’ll always be here.

Even when you see my name on the boulevard,

Driving around town in the fancy cars.

You’ll always be my star and my sun.

No one will ever compare to my number one.

I may not always be around, but remember this my dear,

If there’...

Am I wrong?

Am I wrong to think we could have been something real?

The best we ever had, happiness always part of the deal.

You brightened my world. Showed me a love once lost.

To be without it is a curse, I’d fight for it at any cost.

Am I wrong to think of a future for us two?

We just met, and already I’m seeing many things for us to do.

Vacations with just us two and long nights we’re alone.

I want to be around you always, I want our love known.

Am I wrong to dream of a world where I see only you?

Nobody else matters, you make my skies crystal blue.

You’re beautiful in your own right, a priceless pearl.

I’d move heaven and earth for you, my one special girl.

Am I wrong to not follow the social rules and listen to my heart?

You’re my love at first sight; I k...

Lost Love

 Lost love.

If you love them, then let them go.
Hide your heart, never let the pain show.

They hurt you, don't give them the victory.
Stand tall amongst adversity and live life only for thee.

Emotions are you're enemy, your heart will betray you.
Kindness is a luxury that can't be let through.

For with time, all wounds will be healed.
The bleeding will stop and the scratches will be sealed.

Be strong in your time of sorrow, grieve only within.
Have a smile on the outside, let no one come in.

For your heart is a wasteland now, lifeless and lost.
Maybe love can grow once again, but it'll come at a cost.

Play the cards you were dealt, never show your hand.
Walk the lone man's path, pay close attention to the land.

It is here where life may start a new, and love can heal and grow.
Left alone to forget, to erase the events from the previous show.

If you ...
