My Heart In Words

My Heart In Words

"God Bless The Child"

Calm the voices inside my head,

His soul empty, his heart is dead.

Robbed of his innocence and his pride,

Just a memory of a child who died inside.

God bless the child who died alone,

A helpless child of seven years old.

His flesh and blood grew to be someone else,

Leaving behind all the pain he felt.

On the outside he still looked the same,

But all that survived was a memory of the pain.

God bless the child who drowned in his tears,

an innocent child of just seven years.

You can still see his tears just look in his eyes,

You can hear the crying of a child inside.

He had to sacrifice his heart and soul,

Everything a child could own at seven years old.

God bless the child who died years ago,

God bless the child we will never know.

"Scars Of The Heart"

All doors are locked, all windows are barred;

By my loved ones my heart has been scarred.

Trapped in my life and too blind to see,

When the pain will ever end for me.

Who should I trust?

Where should I turn?

Someone to love me is for what I yearn.

Blinded by the pain and deaf from the voices

Always telling me what to do and giving me unfair choices.

If this is love I don't what to know hate.

I hope my heart of scars has a greater fate.

The ones who love me hurt me the most.

The scars of my heart I continue to tote.

" What Does Tomorrow Hold?"

We cry inside like small children, while we laugh in spite of our fears.

We are lonely and hurt inside, but we hold back our tears.

We scare easily, but we fight our way through.

What does tomorrow hold for us, without someone like you.

If all of our days are empty, and bittersweet cold,

Why do we stay here? What does tomorrow hold?

We worry about our problems, and cry in silence at night,

While on the outside we go on, we must always fight.

God please help us, shelter us from the storm.

Protect us, keep us safe, and keep us warm.

We try to do things right, we really do,

But it's hard down here on earth without someone like you.

If you hear my prayers tonight, please give me a sign of comfort to let me know you are there.

Please don't give up on me lord. Let me know that you still care.

I close my prayer tonight with one small favor to ask.

Help me get through this life, help me with every task.

And if you can give me one thing in life that I need,

Give me your love and comfort. This is my only plea.

But wait.

Before you leave me there's one more thing I need to say.

I will always love you forever, in every way.

Amen

"Love Lingers On"

Tonight is tonight. Tomorrow is tomorrow.

Yesterday is gone, but not my sorrow.

You left me cold and dropped me flat.

Now I’m not sure where my heart is at

The day is over and now I face the night.

I can’t handle the loneliness without you in my sight.

My love is lost but my feelings linger on.

Maybe the hurt will fade when the night turns to dawn.

Age 13

"I'll Get Over You"

I still think of you everyday,

In each and every way.

The rays of the sun are my arms around you.

The sky reminds me of your eyes of blue.

The moon guides my heart- it shines so bright.

And if you could count the stars you would know how many times I thought of you tonight.

The raindrops are like the tears I cried-

The clouds brought the storm that came when you left my side.

The arch of the rainbow reminds me of your smile,

And the wind embracing me reminds me of those special moments… for awhile.

Leaves on the trees blow like your hair in the wind. Barely with my feet on the ground I stand alone again. Each grain of sand symbolizes my every thought of you.

Now that you're gone it's hard to start anew.

Even though I find it hard to do,

I know one day I'll get over you.

"The Cold Wind Blew"

Stood alone against the night,

frozen from the cold.

Cried lonely tears in fright,

I'd have no one to hold.

Embraced the wind as it blew.

Was this all I had?

The cold was all I knew.

But warmth I needed so bad!

Frightened by every rising sun,

another day alone,

Could never find that special someone,

a heart to call my own.

Saw a vision yesterday,

of a love I once knew,

but my vision faded away…

And again the cold wind blew.

"Tomorrows"

Tomorrow is another day, and the sun will rise again.

If there’s one thing I can count on, it’s my family and my friends.

With a smile on my face and my head held high,

I think I can make it through anything under the sky.

Even if the days grow dark with a little speck of cold,

I can laugh it off and think about what tomorrow holds.

With people around me who care and who are always by my side,

I can face the troubled waters and whatever is in it's tide.

Whatever happens I know that I can handle it with strength,

With the love I found within myself, I can make it at any length.

All of my tomorrows will be filled with love, and gracefully bright,

I need not worry about any problems within my sight.

With a song in my heart I can face whatever is near,

I cannot worry about my past and fill my life with fear.

After today I will not shed another tear of sorrow,

Look at what I have to look forward to…

I have my tomorrows.

"Betrayed"

You betrayed me with your friendship, you betrayed me with your lies.

You betrayed me with another friend, right in front of my eyes.

You took a special part of me, something almost mine,

You didn’t think of my feelings, or even give me time.

To get over the love I felt inside so strong,

It’s hard to think of a friend as a friend after doing something so wrong.

How can I forgive you, or even overlook the fact,

I guess your respect for me is what our friendship lacked.
