She who speaks

She who plays football
Who would jump to the chance
To play soccer in the rain
She runs to clear her mind

She who loves a challenge
Never gives up
She loves her friends
And isn’t afraid of obstacle’s that appear

She knows she is strong
And loves to show it through her passion for sports
She plays for the adrenalin rush that fills her body
Her heart is not whole without sports

She loves to smile and laugh
Loves to help and be the giver of advice
She is a lover of music and movies
She is a lover of books

Instead of going to the mall
You will see her at a football game
Or challenging the guys to a match off
She loves the look on the guy’s faces when she shows them that she is just as good as them

She fears her week side
For all she knows is her strong and determined side
She fear’s that one-day people won’t care about her
Because she is the one who became week or useless

She is the strange one for loving the pain and the bruises
The pain that shoots through her knees does not stop her
For she pushes through the pain
For she knows there is something amazing waiting for her at the finish line

The Simple Words That Describe So Much More

Who’s the girl across the way?
Who can be sure, who can say?
I know her though and proud of it too.
So quiet and listen to what I’ll tell you.
As you can see she's pretty and young.
You’d faint if you'd heard the songs she’s sung.
A beautiful poet and an awesome writer.
Timid at first, but one heck of a fighter.
She’ll run and she'll play. The rough and tumble way.
She’s smart and sometimes silly.
But get to know her cause she's my Lily!!

Never Ending Movement

Fast passed
Never ending movement
Always running
Sometimes even spiriting
Jagged marks on the concrete sidewalk
Running is in my blood
But you have a way of slowing me down
You show me the beauty that exists in the world
The elegance in your walk
Shows me I can still be beautiful
With slow strides
You make my heart race
You have a way of assuring me
That things are still sane
You take my hand
Your presence is calm
Your voice is strong but controlled
Your smile makes me dizzy

When you speak my mind goes blank
Your eyes are brighter than the sun
It blinds my thoughts
I love you
With every mussel in my body
You drive me crazy in such a good way
It feels as if
Only our hearts are
In sync

The Young & Lonely Girl

Listening to music
Sitting by the window, waiting
For your arrival
But you do not appear
Nights go by
With three person meals
Time goes by
Sitting by the window
Turns into pacing
Then tears soon spill
Filling the small tunnels
In the soft carpet below
The trees turn red and fall lifelessly
To the untouched ground
Where you used to walk
I find myself humming the song
You used to sing to me to bed
Before you left for a long vacation
You told me when I was young
I asked you if I could go
But you said no you would be back soon
So I waited
Hoping you wouldn’t forget about me
I waited way to long

The old clock downstairs chimes 2
Then 3 then 4
My eyelids are too heavy to notice
It chimes 5
I begged you to stay
But you told me you had to
So I let you go
Knowing I would see you some day
Now I’m older
And nothing has changed
Which is ok, I’ve learned to live without
You
Broken mirrors and soggy carpets
Can be fixed
But my heart can never be restored

Small Package

Green and yellow lights
Shimmering diamonds shatter to the ground
Now I have lost the beat of my heart
Vinegar and wine
It stings
Champagne glasses
Hug the glass counter
Empty beer bottles
Crash to the floor
The door is open
So I walk through
To a new world
Where there is so much more to life
Than heart breaks and mistakes

I saw You Today

You are different these days
I miss the way you laughed at my jokes
The way you looked at me when you listened to my words
Your voice makes me week in the knees
Your eyes make my heart skip a beat
I miss you and me
The way we used to be
Late night swims
Laughing without a care
You were my first love
And I find myself loving you more each day I don't see you
I haven’t seen you since that day
You vanished from my life
Today I saw you
Your beautiful structure
Your walk
Your face
My body aches
Wanting to cry out
Wanting to hold you
For you to be mine once again
I lost you once
I want to fight
So not to loose you twice
I saw you today
And couldn’t help but miss you and me
I wish I could go back
To those days
Where only you and me mattered
And you believed in me and the love I had for you

To The One I Once Loved

I love how you smile when you see me
The way your eyes light up when you
Are passionate about something you love
It shows your heart is strong
You make me feel important
Like I have a place in this world
Each night I gaze at the stars and think of you
I know you are here to stay, which comforts my fragile heart
I love you for who you are
I want everything to work out for you
for your dreams and hopes to come true
You have so much passion for life
I want so much for you
For I love it when you’re happy and hopeful
For it makes me happy
I will always care about you
I promise I will never hurt you nor let you down
I will hold your heart close to mine with care
For you mean more than the world to me


I would never cry in front of you
For that is a sign of weakness
I know you are the one
But I see in your eyes that this feeling I am feeling
does not mean much to you, you just don’t feel the same way
I would rather have you as a best friend than not have you in my life at all
So I am letting you go and this feeling
For if I ever hurt you
I would never be able to forgive myself
For you mean everything to me
I promise you I will always be there for you
No matter what
Nothing will ever come in between you and me or our friendship
No one
Nothing
I promise I will never hurt you nor let you down
I will hold your heart close to mine with care
For you mean more than the world to me


I hope you know I never intended to upset you by feeling this way
You warned me and I didn’t listen and I’m sorry
Truly sorry form the bottom of my heart
I know with love comes heartache but I still pushed my way through
You said I didn’t hurt you
But I am scared you have thought twice by now
This is the new me, a better friend by day and a stronger dreamer by night
I love the way you say my name
But I am letting you go
For I care to much for you
It seems like I say that a lot but it’s the truth
I only write the truth
I am so sorry I put you through this and put in this uncomfortable position
I am starting a new slate
I am going to be a better person because of you
You seem to always bring the best out of me each day
I promise you I will not love you no more
For that is what you want
And I want you to be happy
And for you to have whatever it is you want
I promise I will never hurt you nor let you down
I will hold your heart close to mine with care
For you mean more than the world to me
