  "This Is The Last Poem I'm Wasting On You"

  Slit my throat, it's all the same

  It's all part of your twisted game

  You cut me, you hit me, you beat me down

  Within your senseless hatred I did drown

  I tried so hard for you

  But in the end, I knew

  I didn't deserve the pain you gave

  I don't now how I was such a naive

  You held me down, and screamed for me to die

  I looked into your clear blue eyes, and still saw the sky

  A sky that threatened the storm to come

  A storm that would rage, and your hatred you would be free from

  My life you tried to end,

  Yet in the end your will did bend

  You let me go, and turned away

  From my life you did stray

  You left without a word

  Yet still your voice I heard

  Every time I started to trust

  The fragile wall inside me would bust

  All my dreams falling shattered to the ground

  How does no one hear the sound?

  I walk each day, dripping blood down on me

  I can't look to you to set me free

  I'll find my own way

  Don't bother with me, just stay away

  "Long Lost Friend"

  The earth still turns,

  The sun still burns,

  How could it all go on without you?

  How can each day still bring something new?

  You'll never be forgotten, friend

  Your soul will live on without end

  Each new trial, each new task

  I'll face them all, I won't wear the mask

  The mask I want, to hide behind so well

  Because this earth has become a living hell

  I know someday I'll see you still

  And I must wait until

  That day I will see you once again

  And I will greet you as my long lost friend

  "Searching"

  Sunlight dancing against the frozen snow

  Beauty that cannot compare

  This beauty that she holds

  Cannot be found anywhere

  Dive down into the cold

  That water that so icy and void

  I don't know what could be there

  Just beneath the surface, she may love me too

  Break through it and I will learn

  Shatter the barrier

  That fear that keeps me bound

  Break the chain and let it go

  Dive down... shattering glass

  Emerging safe on the other side

  No cuts or scars to show

  Peace at last

  She loves me too

  I've finally found what I've been searching for
