Lack of love
Hurts my heart
Why can’t people
Ever be smart
Can’t they see
What they’re missing
Love is more
Than just kissing
With genuine love
Souls connect
Hearts entwine
There’s no neglect
Is it so hard
To love this way
This is all
I have left to say

When I think about my life
And don’t focus on mankind
I feel such a positive feeling
As I leave the world behind
And I think about the beauty
The things that God has made
And when I give my worries to him
I’m left feeling unafraid
I wish my mind would dwell more
In the places where he resides
For I know I feel most comforted
When he’s standing by my side
But I get lost to a world
Full of rejection and despair
And so I try to fit in
Which doesn’t get me anywhere
But today is a new day
A chance to try again
And maybe this time
I’ll just give everything to him

Life
A complicated mess
Bathed in lies
And so much death
Always consuming
Presuming
Presuming
Then it’s gone

She was so very far
From where she wanted to be
If only her mind
Could’ve set her free
But her heart withheld
Even the slightest of chance
And so she was beholden
To her circumstance

Sometimes I question
All the things
I lend my heart to
Sometimes I doubt
The sincerity
of my friends
Sometimes I wonder
Why I make
Such illogical choices
Sometimes I wish
I were less foolish
Than I am
