Fear kisses my lips

While death stands still

Love begins to slip

As darkness begins to spill

Tomorrow I will not forget you

The sun will set with ease

The light will swallow up that darkness

The morning will make light freeze--

That light

Oh that beautiful light

The one that sparkles in your eyes

Forever I shall capture that light

And never return it to the skies

Secret Diary

My mind is my own secret diary.

Locked and kept away from most.

To some, who are chosen the spare key, get to see things.

But my deepest thoughts, my deepest secrets, lie in my heart where no one can find them.

Don't try to go looking.

You will get lost in it.

As easily as I get lost in your beautiful eyes.

To me, every day you look amazing.

You seem to just have a natural talent of looking handsome.

What lies behind your lock?

I am curious to see what your book may say.

Curious to see what you say about me.

If you say anything that is.

The day will come when I fianlly take that jump into love.

Love can be as close as a cloud, or as far a star.

Either way you can see them.

Sometimes we just have to wait a little longer for the beauty to come alive.

I

I believe in love at first sight.
I believe that people can change.
I believe that you are beautiful.
I believe laughter is the best medicine.
I believe dreams can become realities.
I believe you can fall in love more than once.
I believe we can all relate to someone.
I believe what does not kill us makes us stronger.
I believe we will all find happiness when it is our time.
I believe in fighting for justice.
I believe in gay marriage.
I believe we can be ourselves in any situation.
I believe there is hope in our hardest times.

I want you to smile.
I want you to laugh.
I want peace.
I want people to stop teasing others.
I want true happiness forever.
I want true love.
I want everyone to feel safe.
I want music all around me.
I want you to find yourself

I hope you find true love.
I hope we find ourselves in life.
I hope we will find a cure for cancer.
I hope one day no child will go hungry.
I hope people will adopt homeless children.
I hope we can see the good in everyone.
I hope you will understand what I am saying.

Why the ocean is salty

I salt the ocean with my tears

I am living life

With dreams and fears

Walking the sandy beach-

Thinking of life and love

Some things are so far from reach

The ocean below-

The sky above-

I cannot rush love though

Like the wave rushes in

It is not a loss

It is not a win

Where do I go from here?

We come across tough times as teenagers. We are too young to make such big decisions yet we are too old to have our parents make those decisions for us. So what are we to do? I usually never have any idea what I will say next or what I am about to do. I live in fear of saying or doing the wrong thing in someone elses eyes. I am scared to death to make a mistake in a relationship or in life. Yes, may be I am crazy. I do not know where to go from here though. I am only 17. I want to be older but I still want to be young. My mind is racing with concern and confusement. I don't know how to feel anymore. Being scared makes my heart race, and my stomach sick. Where do I go from here?
