Raven Haired Girl

Submitted by Schila on May 12, 2008 - 20:29.

Chorus:
The Raven haired girl
who lives down the street.
Don't know where she's goin'
Or who she'll meet.

But the raven haired girl,
with the stars in her eyes...
(any sugestions for the rest of the stanza?
I don't know what to put.)

Verse 1
(still creating :)

Bridge
She sees all
In the corner of her eyes,
The thriving of a nation,
or someone's quick demise.
So don't second guess her.
cause the whole
truth lies,
in her eyes.

Feelings

What are our feelings for, if not to hinder us, and to yet, make us contemplate the complexity of our minds.

We feel, and yet we don't feel, because we have to know, and have to decide what to feel.

without feeling, without hope, life is yet meaningless,

while with feeling, life has a purpose

Take in all emotions,

and live

Tell Me What it Means

Submitted by cheinz27 on January 24, 2008 - 22:20.

Tell me what it means
to fall in love
because I don't know.
Tell me why to love
and who to love
and how to love.
It's nothing I've never felt.
I watch them all.
The people who know these answers
and I always wonder:
How were they so lucky to find it?

They don't know me at all

I smile as I walk down the hall
everyone thinks I'm so happy, no worries
but they don't know me at all

In side I'm screaming, fighting demons
like I'm wearing a mask
Everyone thinks I'm always am happy,
but I never truly am, and when I am it doesn't last

When I don't smile people notice
they ask me "What's wrong?"
But I can't tell them "I haven't been happy all along"
