If Not Now...
Tomorrow I'll be good enough. Today I'm not quite there. Tonight I'll find some brand new words To send the sky the same old prayer.

I'll Be In The Corner
The corner. That’s where I’ll be. Other people might be dancing and laughing, but that’s not what I’ll be doing; I’ll be in the corner, by myself. I don’t need other people to have a good time. I just need a corner and myself because I know that I won’t be me if I go out there. I’ll be a light covered by a shadow. Alone. If I’m alone, then I won’t be judged. I won’t have to force a smile or laugh because no one will be watching. No eyes on me in my corner. No one will try to critique me and make me feel like I should be someone else. They smother the light like a lid over a candle. Slowly smothering what’s there, until nothing is left.

The bright side
So how do I resurrect, From such a vapid state, Am I a magician? Invincible to fate? Hell no! I'm nothing, Just a speck of dust! In comparison to the strong ones, Who were put to the toughest tests!

The bright side
There are certain times, When I get a feeling, To break open the chains, And set myself free! I’m being compressed, By the jamming walls, Wanna dive into a well, Running infinitely long! Thoughts flashed by, To forget everything and flee! Revive from this grief, And squeal with glee!

Last Breath
And when the time comes, when you take your last breath are you going to be proud of the person you have become? Or did you allow your pain and your fear control you?

Detachment
Detachment is hard to master, I detach but find it hard, I need to learn to do it with love, And not being on my guard, Learning to surrender is hard,

Her voice
She dreams of greatness and life. Out of fantasy, her thoughts arise. There's fire in her eyes and rage in her veins, Doubts, "Will I make it till the sunrise?"

Work of Art
We are all a work in progress, You could say - we are art, We start anew and develop, Our skills from our heart. In this life we change,

A city
Stepping off the train, as you take in the smell of the city; You feel the same comfort as when returning to the arms of a lover.
