Could You See this Moment?

Could you see this moment?
When you left us for good?

Could you tell the pain of those
You left behind?

You must have had your reasons
What they were we'll never know

You are gone
But your past remains

When you pulled the trigger
Or overdosed on those drugs

Could you see
Could you know?

The pain and greving
You would leave behind?

I hope you're in a better place
Where nothing can hurt you

Just know that
You are missed
Hidden Places

There is a place
In my mind

I can see it
No one else can

The green cool grass
On my feet

The warm sun
In a sapphire sky
Warms my skin

The ocean waves
Hit the cliff walls

The breeze rustles the leaves
And carry the mist of the sea

All one can hear
Is the waves and wind

Once in awhile you can hear
The faint sound of bagpipes
In the distance

There's a tree
With a swing

This is my Paradise
A Scottish Paradise
Tired

Physically I'm tired
Mentally I'm tired
Emotionally I'm drained

I'm tired of being angry
I'm tired of being scared

I'm tired of feeling like
Our relationship
Is being controled by out parents

I'm tired of little siblings
I just don't think that this is going to work

I fell like our relationship
Has run it's course

I don'tk now why
But I do

I feel like maybe
For now we should go
Our seperate ways

I know it hurts
I feel it too

Yet I know
That if we are ment to be
WE'll get back together

I'm sorry abou this
I don't mean to hurt you
But that is how I feel

I'm really truly sory dear
But I must go

I'm tired of good-byes
Never knowing when I'll see or talk to you again

Now that I look back to when
All this started

I can't really tell
If you were pressured
Into going out with me

I just always felt
Like we've been pressured
I just need to get out for now

I don't know if I'll ever know
I'll give you some time alone now

I'll miss you
Yet I think that this is best

Good-bye for now
My dear friend
Perplexed

Maybe my gut instinks
Were right
Things are tearing us apart

Communication was bad
To begin with

Now it's gotten
Worse

I hate feeling like no matter what we do
Or were we go
Ware are always being watched

Your dad controls out communication
Yet even when we talk while
At your mom's you're always side tracted

You never have time for us
You never plan ahead!

I don't know anymore
Unless things change drastically over the holidays
I think we are done.
Remember

Why can't I remember
One happy memory?
My thoughts seem to have disappeared

What happened to the child
Who walked on the sands?
The sands of time and peace

She's all grown up
She no longer plays
weighed down by the burdens of life

She watches her friends get hurt
Knowing there is nothing she can do

She watches the ones she loves
Mother, Father, Sister, Brother
All fade away.

She watches hopelessly
As her grandmothers die

Nothing left to do now
But cry

What happened to the child
Who played in the sands?
Who's memories were happy and glad?

She's all grown up
Those memories have faded
In their place is pain

Knowing that the memories of the past
Are gone
And knowing that the tomorrow's
Will test her strength

She cries sighlently
Her knees at her chest
She cries in agony and defeat

All that she once held dear has vanished
Fallen into darkness never to return
