Violet Creek

Family is supposed to have your back,
Family is supposed to know you,
There are supposed to be no secrets with family,
There are supposed to be no lies with family,
...

I lie,
so you don't know.
I lie,
so you won't get hurt.
...

My friends say I'm pretty.
I don't.
People say I'm good looking.
I don't.
...

I dream,
of a you and me.
I dream,
...

Hold me,
when I cry.
Hold me,
when I yell.
...

I don't deserve, a guy like you.
I don't deserve, the patience you give me.
I don't deserve, the kindness you share with me.
I don't deserve, the time you spend with me.
...

Do you ever feel,
so alone?
That if you disappear,
no one would notice.
...

I collect oddities,
little things with no purpose.
I collect ans collect,
but never seem to have eough,
...

Is there something wrong with me?
That would make you want to hurt me.
That would make you want to ignore me.
What did I do that was so wrong?
...

I just want someone to hear,
what I have to say,
what is on my mind.
I just want someone to ask,
...

I cry almost everyday,
I cry when you don't look,
I cry myself to sleep,
I cry in the shower,
...

Why aren't you here with us?
Why are we always second the second choice?
Why is it when the army calls,
your there.
...

The rain,
hides the tears,
streaming down my face.
...

It tears at my heart,
It gnaws at my soul,
Its a knife to the gut,
It rules my life,
...

No one hears,
when I scream,
when I yell,
for help.
...

Trees breathe life,
into the world.
...

I observe,
life around me.
I observe,
love and hate,
...

When you go away,
you're gone.

When you come back,
...

I keep people distant,
from afar I look whole,
happy.
But if they get too close,
...

I am the air,
that you breathe.
The air,
that you walk through.
...
