I’m not strong enough to stand
I’m not even strong enough to pray
So Holy Spirit I beg of you
Please find my words today

Be the healer of my soul
The physician of my heart
I’m not very self aware
I don’t even know where to start

I only know something is wrong
My spirit is bogged down
Please come carry me home
In you the lost can be found

I’m not strong enough to stand
I’m not even strong enough to pray
So Holy Spirit I beg of you
Please find my words today

Long periods pass

Letters get lost in transit

We grew up

And apart

And so very twisted

My heart was yours

You mailed it back

Damaged

With a card

And some tape with which to fix it

“I love you” took a new meaning
Under a tree with falling leaves
They were wrapped in an embrace
Anticipating separation
In hopes of a achieving oneness
Someday

When you stumble as you walk

Just keep moving

The momentum will carry you forward

Born of mischief and of charm

I seek the unsuspecting

Fluttering around his head

He isn’t aware of what’s to come

Gently whispering in his ear

He becomes addicted to

The sweetness of my words

My voice is inescapable

Turning his head and tugging heartstrings

I have power now

Control he’s unaware of

And doesn’t want to resist

Magic is the final step

Kissing his lips seals his fate

The spell is complete

And I have what’s mine

Wonderful stranger, what are you doing here?
You’re running through my head again.
Are you sleeping, or up thinking?
Do you even remember who I am?

We’ve spoken previously, but never for long.
I can’t shake the impression you’ve left on me
A few words and some posts online
I don’t know why you’re so interesting

My stranger, please come speak to me
I’m always here, at your beckon call
I’ll pretend we were old friends
All you have to do is say hello

Notes in a shoe box

Are my proof

We were something once

My mind is off in space

In this stupor, I’m trapped

The outside world I can’t face

Maybe I’ve finally snapped

This place was my castle

Now it’s more of a prison cell

Sanity was such a  hassle

Into hysteria I fell

Maybe this is how I should be

Is this my natural state?

There is no one I want to see

My heart is too full of hate

But as the hate retreats

From the love I receive

My heart feels complete

And I’m no longer deceived

I would make my home in your arms

Find my pleasure from your lips

See my beauty through your eyes

And take comfort in your words

I would love you if you let me

Maybe it’s too late

Maybe I already do

One of the tallest boys
That I ever have seen
Broke down and confessed
That he truly loves me

And while the weight of the world
Still takes it’s toll
I’m worried that without this boy
I won’t be completely whole

He’s stuck between two girls
Though I think he’s already made his choice
I wasn’t the girl he picked
But for his happiness, I must rejoice

Because that’s what best friends are for
Supporting one another
I’ll take care of him in the background
And treat him like a brother

I’ll tell myself I’m lucky
Just to have ever met him
And although that’s very true
Still I know, something will be missing

I hope the closeness never fades
And our friendship remains pure
Because I won’t abandon the hope
That we could be so much more
