I Know Nothing At All

Let the rain fall
Let the winds blow
I know nothing at all
Where life goes, I don't know
So let the leaves drop
Let it snow, let it snow

Joy is temporary
When I close my eyes
I don't feel low and weary
When I let go, and let faith guide

I've got a happy soul
That's a part of my being
I'm not in control
Of what I'm not seeing

Let the rain fall
Let the winds blow
I know nothing at all
Where life goes, I don't know
So let the leaves drop
Let it snow, let it snow

Life brings gifts
In their truest form
Some might not fit
But everlasting things are usually found out of the norm

Let it fall
Let it rise
Let it call, it will call
Call me on the other side

Let the rain fall
Let the winds blow
I know nothing at all
Where life goes, I don't know
So let the leaves drop
Let it snow, let it snow

Truth Wrapped Tight

I found it, though it did take a while
I found where the purity comes from a genuine smile
All that is hidden in the Truth wrapped tight
Exposed the light, and fell in love with life

It’s the feeling you get from giving a hand
The satisfaction from offering an ear
The selfless act of helping someone to stand
Sacrificing yourself with intensions sincere

I try to live my life with a goal but in-between
I strive for the truth of all things
I want to live and be in the side that is green
Living here helps me see more of what life brings

I found it, though it did take a while
I found where the purity comes from a genuine smile
All that is hidden in the Truth wrapped tight
Exposed the light, and fell in love with life

I’ve fallen in love
And I’m falling more every night
I’ve fallen in love
In love with everything beautiful in my life

Find it, though it might take a while
Find it in the purity that comes from a genuine smile
All that is hidden in the Truth wrapped tight
Expose the light, and you will find your love for life

The light is in family and friends
It is contained in the hand that you lend
It is in a heart that gives
In a heart that forgives

It is in everyone that appreciates everyday lived

The Motion of Life Layers

We go through heart aches
Smiling through prayers
Love and heart breaks
The motion of life layers

We will have dents and creases
All a part of the enfolding
Layer over layer increases
On top of a shape constantly molding

We go through heart aches
Smiling through prayers
Love and heart breaks
The motion of life layers

Constantly changing lights
That change the hue
Layers appear over night
That give us a sense of new

We go through heart aches
Smiling through prayers
Love and heart breaks
The motion of life layers

Some with holes
Some not complete
All we have to know
Is they're there for us to see

We go through heart aches
Smiling through prayers
Love and heart breaks
The motion of life layers

I'll Be Just Fine

Guess it's really going on
Missing two years in time
As long as you're gone
I'll be fine

A joke is all it seemed
That we wouldn't make it this far
But now on friday the thirteen
What was us, will be the lonely dimming stars

That's it, that's all it will be
The past, a lesson, a blessing
No kisses, no roses, no sentimentality
Just a memory of loving

So I guess it's really going on
Missing two years in time
As long as you're gone
I'll be fine

On that day, I'll lay down
And look at the night sky
One last time I'll pretend
I'll pretend to see it through your eyes

Beauty is worth one last glance
It's worth one last cry
Let's go for one last dance
With the stars before goodbyes

It's really going on
Missing two years in time
As long as you're gone
I'll be fine

I'll be fine
As long as you're gone
I'll be fine

I'll be just fine...

Beautiful Insides

I was young, so was my heart
Before, it was never more than a body part
A vital organ that kept me going
Made sure I always kept it from showing

Held in my feelings, I kept my composure
Avoided being vulnerable
Then came her, my heart's exposure
Released when it became unbearable

Love bloomed
It zoomed
I was all alone in my room
Til' I cleaned the debris with a broom

In the depths of hearts exists absolute beauty
To find it, you must make it your duty
When broken your chance increases
So look for the diamond in between the pieces

It raises you higher than high
Then drops you through goodbyes
Get up or give up? It's all up to you
Suffer, or find the things that will get you through

My old heart broke so I could find how to make it anew

Just Let Go

Was hanging on a wire
Now I've let go
Thought there'd be fire
I just didn't know

Fell for a while with nothing to grab
Except for shadows and air
Along the way, I got stabbed
By eyes with a piercing stare

Just...

Kept falling, and falling
Deeper and deeper
Heart kept calling and calling
Louder and louder

Terrified to a point of cowardice
I was powerless
Until God gave me the courage to rise
And opened my eyes

Everything is now clearly in sight
No more gray, just black and white
Oh, and orange, green and blue
Heck even some yellow too

If you're always focusing on two
You'll see just one
Thinking it's all we need when it's new
But what happens when it's done?

I fell into a hole
Thinking it was endless
Became numb in my soul
Hopelessly senseless

Just...

No one deserves to feel this way
To feel doomed when they pray
Constantly against a rope
Everyone deserves a little hope

Be true to yourself
Be true to others
Being true to oneself
Makes a good sister/brother

Just see
Just move
Just be
Just groove

Don't shove
Just give
Just love
Just live

When there's nothing left to say
Pray...

The war inside will cease
You'll repair piece by piece
Pray with all of your heart
And you will find peace

Colours

Feels great, but sometimes shines too bright
Dominantly overtakes everything else in sight
Left with just one colour, beautiful for sure
But was it worth all my effort to focus on just her?

The leftovers moved to my blind spot
I didn't even ask myself why
Or if it was on purpose, was it not?
Guess I decided to use just one dye

Unfortunately it ran out
I squeezed everything I could
To the ends I fought in a bout
To discard it, I knew I should

Looked around for a while with the lights off
In a room I didn't recognize as home
I opened the exit door and stepped outside
And saw a green field with a rainbow

The beautiful colours overwhelm my senses
So vivid, I now have a spectrum before me
I'm so glad I've learned through many lessons
How mixed reds, yellows, and blues shine equally

Inner Demons

Inner demons tamper with trust
Self-control, self-combusts
Words said with an unclean soul
Heart becomes black as coal

They instigate out of the blue
And there's absolutely nothing you can do
They tear you up deep down inside
Causes dynamic emotions to collide

Exhaust the mind to a point of distress
Makes it impossible for one to confess
Everything that's been bottled for a while
They hide the reasons for you to truly smile

They develop through a course of time
From the depths they lurk, their mission to climb
To the top where the whole world can see
Just how horrible, and deceiving one can be

These inner demons must be kept constrained
If not, one's life will slowly be drained
If so, one's life will be changed

...for the better.
