Emily Vallee

Twists and turns, ups and downs
Different choices, paths to pick
Over hills and down flat land, rocks and tar
I chose mine, now you choose yours.
...

When you cry you make me fall from your eyes,
While I fall from your eyes I think of you.
From all of the pain and all of the lies,
You wish you could go back to being two.
...

I'm a little Boston Terrier dog,
You don't understand what you do to me
I often get lost in the bloody fog
Can't you let me be who I want to be?
...

Today I picked a penny up off of the ground
I just had to turn right around
I went through the woods
And went as fast as I could
...

My heart beats strong,
But never strong enough
To get through all this pain.
I need help
...

Being in this cage makes me feel alone,
My brother and my sisters don't like me
So now I am left here all on my own.
How come you people can't just leave me be?
...

I had a task,
To fight a beast.
Right in the middle
Of a forest.
...

Put that knife down
It does you no good.
Causes you more pain,
Causes you to lose your mind.
...

Little drops falling from the sky
Never want to harm a fly.
They fall on me, they fall on you
They even fall on things that go moo.
...

I pray, pray to God.
Pray for things to turn right.
I feel ashamed,
But know I know,
...

Why I feel alone,
In this hell of a world,
I don't know.
I have my friends,
...

Emptiness inside,
Emptiness all around.
Friends try to fill it,
But they never can.
...

Tears,
They stain my cheeks.
Tears,
They bring out my sorrow.
...

I miss you
Oh so very much!
I was only two
When you left.
...
