Lizzie O'Neill

The shimmer of the silk,
The clicking of the heels,
The hair curled,
The make-up pristine,
...

So many times we see
The fake eyelashes,
Fake tan,
Fake chest,
...

Walking through the park,
So dull and grey,
No one notices anyone's there,
Always in a rush,
...

The long walk,
The cold wait,
People commuting,
Two guys going to Uni,
...

The sleepless nights,
The constant fights,
Sleep eludes me,
But people don't see,
...

A million stars in the night sky,
Thousands of eyes looking down from so high,
I look up and what do I see?
All those eyes looking back at me,
...

I look up at the sky each night,
And see the stars shining bright,
I get this feeling deep inside,
That tells me not to hide,
...

The thoughts,
The memories,
Keep passing through my head,
I lie in the dark,
...

I lie in bed,
Fantasy's running through my head,
I see you and me,
One big happy family,
...

You look at me,
I'm happy,
Bubbly,
Not a care in the world.
...

Always there,
Listening,
Thinking,
Never judging.
...

Its hard to lose someone you love,
Hard having to say goodbye,
No matter how hard your trying to be strong,
The pain keeps holding on,
...

Life's all good,
You're on high,
Then a missile comes,
And takes you out the sky.
...

There's something about you that I just don't see,
But it's making this feeling build inside of me,
When I'm with you the worlds a much brighter place,
Especially when I see that smile on your face,
...
