Undreamed Dreams

I'm waiting to be discovered
Lurking deep inside your mind
way back in your subconscious
though I'm not that hard to find

Your thoughts to one day find me
soon dispersed and faded away
To live a life of reality
living only to live another day

That's not what life had planned for me
but you gave up on a dream
you gave up on hope and a future
and settled for all that it seemed

Even though you never thought to search for me
You think of me every now and then
with heartache inside, confusion resides
As if dreaming was a sin

You look at yourself
You look at your life
And think of all it could be

It could be all you want
and so much more
If only you'd believe and visualize me

As long as you breathe,
it's never too late
so hold on to me
there's no time to waste

I'm real as the blood that runs through your veins
I'm as vital as the air you breathe
And it's only a matter of time
before i show myself
You just have to believe.....

And Dream.....

Broken

To give someone everything
only to find they gave you half
while your home broken and crying
they can still find joy to laugh
and you wonder what you did wrong
what did you say? what did you do?
and you cry until there are no more tears
and all that's left is you....
you call friends, you pray to God
try to keep busy
but none of it helps
overcome, overwhelmed by emotions
heart, no longer on your sleeve, now on the shelf
you never want to love again
you never want to feel
you never want to hear their name again, its all surreal

so now what do you do
when the one you love broke your heart
when your reduced to breaking down
and your world's torn apart
what do you say when there are no words to describe how you feel
and no one would understand
when you feel like your everything is missing
with your deepest thoughts buried in sand

after praying doesn't work and kind words from your friends
and positive thoughts don't ease the pain
and you re-live the past, the wrongs and the rights
over and over, again and again
With your head in your hands
armed wrapped around your shoulders
TELL ME!! WHAT DO YOU DO??
when you are so sure that, that person is the one
only to find they were never meant for you??...........

LOVE

Shouldn't it be more natural
Shouldn't it be easy
Shouldn't;t it be less painful
Isn't it supposed to free me
Shouldn't it make me smile
And fill a piece that was once empty
Shouldn't it make me cry
And mean everything to me
Why can't it just be beautiful
Shouldn't it just make me better
Why does it have to be so difficult
And not organized and together
Isn't it worth all the sacrifice,
All the change and the exposure
Isn't it worth all the happiness,
the connection and the closure

The cleansing of one another
Of the past, pain and the struggles
Shouldn't it be worth much more than
the hurt and all the trouble
I believe that it should be and it is
so naturally beautifully formed into shape
By the amount of heart, it's given
It can evolve into something great
It should be much more and it is so much more
Than a temporary escape
It's the beginning and the end, the creation
the hinge to everything and falls into place
Not taken from but added too
Fed, given life
Nourished and explored
And it shouldn't take a fight

No, it shouldn't take a fight
To fall in love
To join as one
With grace you should easily merge
Love is sweet and should be fun
When it is with the right one
No hurt and no confusion
It can actually be real without the fairy tales
and the illusions
But there are happily ever after's
Good before's and Beautiful after's
Actual people and not actors
Real life, no books, no chapters

Love is so pure, that's why everyone wants it
It's not a temporary escape
The beginning and the end
for real, not pretend
And it should fall right into place..

Roles Reversed

Isn't it so funny how the tables have turned
Now you know how I felt and oh how it burns
To wonder, to feel it
to know something's wrong
that inkling, that intuition that keeps growing strong
I used to stay up all night crying
wondering what's wrong with me
those sleepness nights, you ain't come home
knowing you were out with she
you'd deny it, swear up and down
that could never be
But I knew what I felt
I know what I see
Now numb to the madness
It's rare that I care
Cause you had it made up in your head
that I would always be here
I stopped asking, stopped crying
knowing I could do better
And not once did you realize
that you weren't so clever

So I come and go freely
and you want to know where I be
Constantly asking me who is
running after me

what's that and who's that
And who's calling your phone
What You doin? Where you going?
Are you sure you at home?

Why you so focused on me now
You were so into doin you
when I was worrying and heartbroken
you never came to my rescue
And now you expect me to pamper your insecurities
Stroke your ego
when you ain't did s#*t for me?!?!

................................Wellll

It's not gon happen
see Karma is a bitch
I sat and I waited and see
How the roles have switched
See how you up on me now
See how you sooo concerned
Well now you kow how I felt
And I hope that shit burns!!!

Thank You

Thank you for a love that I now understand
that doesn't come from a human
but deep down within
that adds to my fullness
and abundantly overflows
that out shines the sun
and in the darkness it glows
in the sunlight it grows
unconditionally and eternal
an elevation of emotions
genuine and internal
it's too strong to retain
uncontrollably bursting out
too show everyone that encounters it
what it's all about
unheard of, unsure of
but now understood
the greatness, the realness
indescribable, good
that's better than sweet
way more than imagined
always dreamed of
but not likely fathomed
I thank you for a love that I now understand
that's been patiently waiting
to be discovered......within!

DREAM!!

Don't be afraid to dream
Don't be afraid to try
Never be afraid to live your life
Don't be too afraid to fly

You get so many chances
Many moons and many suns
Plenty days and plenty seasons
But life, you only get one

Don't ever hold yourself back
Spread your wings and soar
Feel the wind blow through your hair
Do all you've never done before

You don't want to have regrets
You will only be mad at yourself
For passing up opportunities
And giving up on everything else

Keep your dreams and visions alive
Don't let them fade, don't let them die
Love and trust what you have inside
Believe....spread your wings and fly
