Under A Microscope

Is it me, or do we all become blind to the simpleness of life.
We try so hard to be someone we're not, to impress someone
who isn't the one at all.
We work carelessly to have the things that in the end will not last,
...

Allow me to apologize if I seem a bit anxious,
but I'm feeling as if I might not last another second
if my feelings are not made clear. I think of you as someone
wonderful and special. Someone i can talk to honestly and frank.
...

We don't fall in love,
we fall into the idea of it.
the idea that anything is possible,
the idea that we can need and be needed,
...

My night light shines so bright, so white,
like an angel through the sky light. My night light
never fades away but grows brighter, stronger
everyday.
...

Pride means nothing when the one you love is gone.
It's the bullet in the gun, when you pull the trigger and
it's done.
Pride is fake, intrusive and unreal, pulling us away
...

...

My air, my sadness, my laughter,
my content, my freedom, my passion,
my desire, my hope, my light, my pain,
my sorrow, my gift, my tears, my smile,
...

...

...

You promised to be faithful, you promised to be true.
You promised to be loyal and and hold me close to you.
You promised me your future and everything you are,
you promised me forever but forever is much too far.
...

I'm afraid to let you in,
I'm afraid to begin again,
to toss out the feelings and thoughts that i knew,
and open my heart to someone like you.
...

I've built my life and all you see,
to keep you close and safe to me.
I've fought so hard to earn your trust,
and pushed away all selfish lust.
...

I'm a hostage in my own home,
afraid that one look might send me too far.
Afraid that one stare might see through my soul and
to be judged, oh to be judged is worse than death to me,
...

Who am I that you should hate me so? ?
What have I done that has offended you?
Am I too happy with the one I love while you are not?
Does my pride in who I am scare you?
...

You lied and you used and abused my trust,
though if it were anyone else I wouldn't have minded as much.
but the thought that you could betray me the way that you did,
makes me sick and disgusted even though I love you so.
...

Faith is it something we must feel or just believe?
Are we born with it, this idea of knowing and trusting
in something we cannot see or has yet to happen?
My faith is strong today but who's to say about tomorrow.
...

I hate you! I hate you more! I'm sick of this life,
I'm sick of you!
And I'm tired I'm so tired of trying to prove to you
that I'm worth it, that we're worth it.
...

They looked at her/him and shouted you're pathetic do yourself a
favor and end it already.
She/He looked at them with pain, with hurt, with a stare that cried for help
but no words came out.
...

Hey you!
you with the perfect smile,
you with those ocean eyes that see through me as if i was
nothing at all.
...

Resentment is all you have won from me.
Gained it from all you have done or have lacked doing
to deserve any respect from me at all.
You are like a shadow I cannot run from,
...
