I’m staying awake
Trying to fix my mistakes
Yet you’ve been the blame,
The day you came
It’s a story I’ve told before
Just another memory
Because you’re always in my thoughts
But you’re not here
Yea you’re never here with me
So won’t you try, try to stay?
Chorus:
I’m not sure what to think
Cause every time I blink
You’re always in my mind
And when I open my eyes
You’ve gone, gone again
The games you play they never end
So can someone please tell me,
How you always seem to disappear?
And why you’re never here
Why you’re never here at all
Verse 2:
I’m block
Verse 1:
With so much sorrow
Words so deep that came
So slow and shy,
“You’ll find someone so will I”
The truth brings tears to my eyes
Because I’m lying all the time
Like when I said I’ve moved on
And how I’m obviously not gone
Yet you take what you hear
As I think about what you said
You thought you were alone
But I’ve been there before
Healing myself, thinking twice and,
Collecting my tears in a jar;
So won’t you come wipe them away?
Like I know you will
Stay still,
Stay here with me
Chorus:
Hey
I’ve tried to forget
But you’re not letting go
This girl she’s left a scar

The One with the Black Nails
"Find a way."
The words spun around in my head; flashing like a neon sign, minute by minute.
The words that were destined to help me,
But haunted me instead.
Looking beyond,
I wish I could understand
Glance into a distraction
Forget in the blinding sun...
My days have left me lost
Making me question the world,
Life around me is so face-paced
People carry on with the slightest expression.
City lights are strung above me
So tired of dangling
And here the only thing that lingers,
Is the smell of cheap perfume.
Everything remains the same
People falling for labels;
New styles, new trends
Looking like everyone else.
Yet my confusion still has
What Your Mirror Fails to Reflect by XxBaileyRxX, literature
Literature
What Your Mirror Fails to Reflect
I can feel passion beneath your skin
I can feel your essence and its potential
Yet I can feel rage building up in your fists…
In the mirror all that’s shown is your unconvinced image
When all that’s seen is beauty, truthfully
But you won’t believe and testify
Seeing no more than mere reflection,
You’ve stumbled upon so many troubles
Tearing yourself apart for unknown reasons
Times that can’t be replaced but only remembered
Haunt you in uncontrollable thoughts,
Leaving you afraid and without words…
Locked in a shallow state of mind
All that’s been told has turned into a blur,
Leav
It’s a classic tale of love
Falling deep into your eyes
Belonging in your heart
As you belong in mine…
Now I’m never going back
To when dark was my only friend
The time when I fell and could not see
So slow,
Into an endless pit of lonely…
Now I’ve returned to my feet
No longer crawling on my knees
And I’m drowning over you
As your love surrounds me…
Intertwined in deep emotion
You’ve set me free
Letting me return to light,
As I’m welcomed in your eyes
Verse 1:
These are the days
That always seem to fade so fast
And I remember the time
The day it came to me so suddenly,
What if these days
Leave me soon
And though they all seem the same
What if life is more than a game?
What if it’s not too late to change?
As if beginnings can be made,
As if the end is just a stage…
Chorus:
Well each day is a new day
And as they fade new scars are made
These memories and broken dreams
Can be so difficult to see
So come and be free
Because each day is a new opportunity
And I’m not afraid to begin
Because who knows when these days will end…

It’s getting pretty late

When Nothing Feels Real
Verse 1:
I need a different path
The one I’m on is slowly drifting away,
Leading me to a different place
Far from home and in the dark
My hands are cold, I’m broken inside…
Echoes whisper in my ear
Tell me to stay, tell me to leave
I don’t know what to do or say, so will you hear me as I scream?
Chorus:
How do I see when there is no light!
Looking away I feel as though I’m losing
Well my grip is weary I’m losing my place
Something inside has left and been replaced
Tell me what I should feel
Because lately nothing feels real…
Verse 2:
I’m sitting alone staring at the stars
There probabl
Verse 1: Looking back I feel so vulnerable…
Like broken glass shattered on the floor
As the sunlight collects my broken tears
I wish that I could turn back and walk away…
Now nothing feels right at all
But I’m sick of always falling
Because you said you’d always be there
But then you walked out the door!
Chorus: Well hey I hope that you got what you wanted
And I bet that you’re regretting what you said
So before you fail to say you’re sorry
Just remember what I did
How I said I’d be there before
But watch me
As I walk out the door…
Verse 2: I can see you now, feeling guilt sink in
As though
Black ink crashes down
Stumbling across once white paper
As passion pours out
Each word’s beyond description…
Buried deep down inside
Becoming overwhelmed with pride
Everyone has their precious secrets
Things they try to hide…
Their opinions
Their perspectives
Their clever little lies…
But nonetheless,
Everyone has their truths
Certainties they hold so dear
Things they honor
Believe in,
They can keep until the end…
With truths so pure
For some it might be hard to see
The distance between other’s deceptions
And reality…
So before your lies are spoken
Fall so gently into truth
Though it might

The Life of a Snowflake
Falling slowly to the ground
Not having a certain path
Living without caution
Living without vigilance…
Seeing the ground from afar
Must be fear to no extent
Knowing your fate is soon to come
In any way, at any moment…
Like a wave hitting rough rocks
Or a field flooded in feathers
Slowly coming to an end
But not knowing when…
Well don’t look down now
Now it will soon begin
As you start to touch the ground,
That’s when you start to shake,
Drowning deep inside the soil
Melting away and slow to speak
Buried beneath…
But soon to see,
There is another residing your death
Tasting what you had to bear&helli

When Words Can't Describe
You never really know how much you miss something
Until it’s truly gone
And I feel like it’s gone for real this time
Though I plead for it to come…
My questions have no answers and when I wish there is no point
And I hope that all these thoughts will go away…
But I’m here again and no one ever knows
Waiting in the blackest night as I fail to be content
Looking out my window as the dark captures my eyes,
And here it comes
That memory comes on again
That reminiscence of you
And when I used to think it would never end…
Well here I am
Listening to my memories
I look away for just a moment
See all of what
Ten years from now, it will be called That Night
The day I fessed up
The day I came over to you and
Confessed
Admitted my crush
Asked you to love me
Wanted you to be my girlfriend
Ten years from now, it will be told about you
How you were shocked
How surprised you were
Confused
Astonished
Almost off-put
But also slightly interested
Ten years from now, it will be told about That Night
Despite your inclinations
Despite any insecurities you
Accepted
Agreed
Let me be your boyfriend
And tried this experience
Ten years from now, it will be because of That Night
That you fell in love
That you had a blast
Dating
Going out
Ha
Take notes my friend, and do as you please,
for butterflies can be killed with the quickest of ease,
This may sound stupid, it might sound absurd,
but let me paint a picture using nothing but words.
Butterflies are fragile, simple and small,
but with only one wing they are able to fall,
They don't come in one, they come in all colours,
but just seeing one of them doesn't make it summer.
We catch them by chance, hold them in our hands,
and let go when we want them to find new land.
We admire their routine in the sun-shining day,
and feel nothing but sadness when they fly away.
Now back to business, what I said at the start,
compare the butt
you've stopped waking up
from those dreams so dark
I'm all cut open
I'm all cut up
as the bridges burn between us
I say the usual things that I would
that I'm going home
if only I could
without you
there's no place to go back to
after all
I'm still listening closely
for the breath you take
and honestly still I never forgave you
I hate the time it takes
is this how the rest is going to be?
blind spots the only things that I can see?
come back to me
and let's not do anything

Maybe One Day, My Needs Will be of Meet.
You are so unaware
That what my fingers are typing
Is all about you
Sometimes,
Just sometimes,
I hate you with a passion
But then I fall for your everlasting kindness,
Once again
It is so hard to sustain an even balance
Of sanity
Your obliviousness hurts me beyond your knowledge
Your compulsiveness alone,
Brings me to my knees in painful anguish
I should wish for you
Not to ignore me when I need you most
When you do,
It creeps through every particle in my body,
And leaves another irremovable scar
An irreplaceable scar
You initiate a hurt like none I have known before
I thought I could trust you?
My tears drop silently,
To the cold cement
