If I had a flower
For every tear I cried,
Then I could fill every field
And every countryside.
If I could have a raindrop
Each time I couldn't sleep,
Then I could fill every lake
Every river, and every sea.
And if every time I felt alone
A bird learned how to fly,
Then they would come from all around
And fill every inch of sky.
But if I lit a candle,
Each time I thought of you,
The world would be forever bright,
And I would never be blue.
Sitting in your pink palace,
Everything is great,
You're toying with the mind,
Of a young girl of eight.
Seeing you she wants to be,
Just like you someday,
With perfect skin, and painted lips,
Never a hair astray.
A little girl can only see,
This image of perfection,
But if you ask me my opinion,
I say its lip-o-suction.
Perfect girl, Perfect life,
Right down to the mansions and trucks,
Once again, my opinion here,
Is that BARBIE SUCKS!
Today's the day my life will change,
I say, Bring it on!
I'll change my ways, I swear today,
If it takes me til the dawn.
Today will be great, happy and sweet,
With many surprises to come,
Chasing out the darkness,
Bringing in the sun.
I've had enough of being sad,
Of being such a dweeb,
Enough of this, its time to change,
To let my spirit be freed.
Bring it on, I can take it,
You'll never see me fall,
Hit me with your hardest shot,
'Cause I can take it all.
I wish I could write a poem
About love and passion
Or heartbreak and fears
But I've never
Really loved a someone
Or cried any tears
I've picked a red rose before
For myself
And danced to a slow song
With a teddy bear
I've kissed a mirror
And hugged a pillow
I used to think
That none of those could count
But then I realized
You don't need to be in love
To smell a rose
Or hear the rain
Or even dance to a song
You just need to love yourself
And you won't need a person
To call your everything

It may not last forever,
Maybe not long at all,
But its been wonderful so far,
And its lasted through the Fall.
You make me feel so special,
When no one else can,
And when you are with me,
I think I'm worth a damn.
Lets just stay like this for now,
Just let me feel your heat,
I desperatly want to be close to you,
Right down to our feet.
So lets not say forever,
How about here and now,
I will show my love to you,
Simply tell me how.
If I had built, one more wall,
The way I knew I should,
I wouldn't be here wishing,
But then again, maybe I would.
For all the others,
There wasn't any question,
Those walls were put up,
By my heart's suggestion.
Even for you, I tried,
To keep you away,
For you were the one,
I wanted that way.
But somehow you broke through,
The walls around my heart,
Now the pain I feel inside,
Is ripping me apart.
I was afraid,
That you'd break my heart,
And now that you have,
We're right back at start.
If I had built one more wall,
Then you wouldn't have gotten in,
And close to my heart,
That you've broken again.
A heart is not a playing thing,
A heart is not a toy,
but if you want it broken,
Just give it to a boy.
Boys, they like to play with things
To see what makes them run,
But when it comes to kissing,
They do it just for fun.
Boys never give their hearts away
They play us girls for fools,
They wait until we give our hearts
And then they play it cool.
You will wonder where he is at night,
You will wonder if he is true,
One moment you will be happy,
One moment you will be blue.
If you get the chance to see him
Your heart begins to dance,
Your life revolves around him,
There's nothing like romance.
And then it starts to happen,
You worry day and night,
You see my friend, you're losing him
It never turns out right.
Boys are great though immature,
The price you pay is high,
He may seem sweet and gorgeous,
But remember he is a guy.
Don't fall in love with just a boy
That's takes a lot of nerve.
You see my friend, you need a man
To get what you deserve.
So when you think that you're in love,
Be careful if you can
Before you give your heart away
Make sure that he's a man.
*Thats from some e-mail I got, I didn't
write it. But its AWESOME*
If only you could see,
What you do to me,
If you only knew,
The pain you put me through.
But thats too hard,
For you to comprehend,
So through this heartfelt poem,
My thoughts I truly send.
If only you could feel,
What I feel inside,
Than you too,
Would want to run and hide.
This pain it keeps me in the dark,
The truth I have to hide.
If you only knew,
The hurt I feel inside.
The word I hate the most of all,
That tears me up inside,
Is forever, oh forever,
And the love I try to hide.
You said you'd love me,
Forever is what you said,
But here I am w/ out you,
Feeling like part of me is dead.
I know I shouldn't feel this way,
For it was you who lied to me,
But I couldn't see through your lies,
Forever is all I could see.
So now, I've found somebody,
Somebody exciting and new,
My only hope is that he will not,
Say forever too.
If life is so amazing,
If it is so grand,
Then why are you not w/ me,
Why aren't you holding
my hand?
Although I love my life,
For its the greatest gift
of all,
Why won't you pick up
that phone,
And make that damn
call?
So life is great,
Or so the ppl say,
But it would be even
better,
If I had it my way.
