Journal

Tattered confidante
                        Safely hidden thoughts and words
                        My notebook of dreams

Discipline

Mind body and soul
                        bow to the hand and the foot
                        Balance is complete

Damaged

Damage now undone
Heart still aches and cries alone
Broken forever

Raging Waters

You were not there
                        holding my hand
                        When the world stopped for me
                        you did not understand
                        My eyes saw you
                        My heart said goodbye
                        I thought of the promise
                        that became nothing but a lie

                        CHORUS
                        Standing on the edge again
                        It hurts to remember
                        My dreams must have been empty from the start
                        You know what I am thinking
                        but will not calm my fears
                        So buried in confusion I leave my heart

                        I didn't let it go
                        you didn't want me to stay
                        I embraced the raging waters
                        that are still churning today
                        Nothing will wash away my pain
                        It does not disappear
                        You made a decision
                        to make me cry each tear

                        CHORUS repeat

                        BRIDGE
                        I remember a time
                        with trust and truth
                        I remember a world
                        with only me and you
                        I remember your goodbye
                        and there's nothing I can do...

                        to stop the raging waters

                        You were not there
                        and will never understand
                        When the world stopped for me
                        you did not hold my hand
                        My eyes are still bleeding
                        My heart remains numb
                        My thoughts are shattered to pieces
                        from a dream come undone

                        Keep imagining the moment
                        of your final decision
                        when the world stopped
                        Indescribeable pain
                        My eyes saw you
                        My heart said why
                        I thought of your love...
                        that became our goodbye
