| The Words Left Unspoken by Brittani King Sometimes I wake up so afraid Scared that my memories will fade Of maybe that I did it wrong Now it feels you've been gone too long Sometimes I wonder if u knew So much I should have said to you So many laughs, so many tears So many smiles, so many fears Now each day I miss you so But the time had come; you had to go Your battle ended on that day Now your soul's in Heaven, with God, to stay Angels were waiting when you got there And the beauty you saw was beyond compare You could run and jump and laugh and play I wish I could've see you on that day I never got to tell you goodbye And now I think I understand why For each day you're watching me here below And someday once again, we'll say hello. Arrival by Adam Kipp My eyes squeezed shut I won't let go. My sheltered life is all I've known, I can't be thrown into this world I have no clue of where I'll go or what to do The faces here will be so new. I'm scared to see what dangers may await. The uncertainty is drawing near, Why do I feel this dread, this fear? I want to stay I will not go You cannot force me from my home. Errie silence my heart grows still. Suddenly I feel a different thought give way A mix of curiosity and wonder, makes me feel like this won't be so bad. New challenges to overcome, And new things for my eyes to discover. Without hesitation I feel the rush, and I know my time has come. To look my fear into the eye, and plunge into my newfound life. The bright light beams down on me And reflets off my teary eyes, But a loving touch drowns out my cries. Well now time has come and gone, and I have surely seen The beauty that awaits me here Will be my choice indeed. |
| Not Known by Brice Barnett "A 'friend' I am to most, Or a 'brother' but nothing more. No one understands why, 'Just give it time.' they say. But they know not the reason I seek companionship. I am content with myself, Yet more I need to grow. It seems the love I have to give, No one will ever know." Is It True? by Luke Lucas After all this time, All the fun we had, With all of the good times and the bad. Are you about to say, What I think you're about to say? I think to myself, Maybe it's all my fault.But then I think of the beautiful past back when We were the "happy couple". Taking walks at night with The radiant celestial body of nocturnal beauty hanging so quietly in the infinite vasteness of empty space. But this cause is not of me, It must be something else that I possibly might've forget, But I guess that doesn't matter anymore because you, For us it wasn't true |
