Holly Robbins

Dare to be different,
to stand out among a crowd.
Don't be afraid to let your voice be heard!
Scream it out loud!
...

Words can cheer you up
when you are down or cause you to stumble
and hit face first onto the ground.
Words can touch your heart
...

My life is a bad dream...
Sometimes it gets so hard I want to scream!
I'm in disguise, so no one will recognize what I really feel inside.
This pain is too much...
...

I want to live a life that is pleasing to God.
I want to take off this crazy facade.
I want to look past all the troubles I see and look onward towards eternity.
I want to live the life that was meant for me, rather than trying to be the best.
...

God takes all my broken pieces
and makes a work of art...
He puts me back together
when I fall apart...
...

Just one more huff...
Just one more pill...
and I promise I'll be still!
Just one more hit...
...

I need a sanctuary all my own...
a place where I can be alone...
alone with my thoughts...
alone with my dreams...
...

Do you ever feel like you just can't go on?
Do you ever feel like your soul has lost it's song?
Do you ever feel like everything you try to do right, comes out wrong?
...

Who am I to judge you?
Or the things you do?
Because if you think my life is perfect,
you haven't got a clue...
...

A cluttered life...
a cluttered past...
searching for something that will last...
trying to shed the dead skin that
...

Scars remain with pain inside
my heart holds hurt that I cannot hide
bruised and broken
torn and tattered
...

I thought I knew you...
I thought I had you figured out...
You seemed like the 'nice guy' every girl dreams about!
You took the time to be my friend,
...

Take a breath.
Step into the light...
and know that you're going to be alright!
Those tears will dry...
...

I try so hard to make you happy,
but nothing seems to work.
I do my best to find ways to love you,
but nothing seems to have worked.
...

I wish you could see yourself the way you really are.
I wish you could look beyond your scars.
I wish you could find the light at the end of the tunnel.
I wish you could feel the love that's all around you.
...

Wherever you are...
Don't stop!
Don't quit!
Or... you won't make it.
...

Yes, I am blessed!
But I must confess that I have lonliness...
Times when my sky is filled with gray
and the pain won't seem to go away...
...
