Unmasked How beautiful it is to stay silent While they expect you to be enraged', Why, tis but playing them At their own petty game, My dear, watch over his scornful gaze And teeth curl in his silent rage, As your flawless smile and dismissive air Plunge him into envy of a character so fair, Then step back and see, and revel in the feeling Of his childish spite, now degraded of meaning, Oh what a day- to finally stand tall And not be knocked down, by the voice sniggering 'fall'.

Outspoken Words are just words They're ours to keep Or give to others who make our hearts leap Words are just words In whatever form To make us be brave and stand out from the norm Words are just words That you'll never forget Those things I said that I will always regret Words are just words On paper or by mouth Harmful blades that turned our relationship south Words are just words That can never be tamed To speak of hatred or he that shall not be named Words are just words That we will forever love and hate But your time is coming And as for words; it will simply be too late.

Mirrored Walls We can escape This, here, all we have Only held up with tape You knew it wouldn't last forever I never asked why, but You forced us together Now the ghosts in this house Don't lie With the minds you raped It's all broken And we could have escaped

Déjà vu And here we are again. This place is familiar And yet I still hope This time will be different. You come back to me As easily as you left And prey on my stupidity. Because it will always be you That makes me forget the past And love you all over again. But I can't keep coming back here You took me for granted And I won't forgive you now Because I just can't be here again.

Love is When you come to realise that they're on your mind, always. When you get into bed and your last thought before sleep is them. When you find yourself smiling when they walk through the door. When the fear of losing them to someone else consumes you. When you come to realise, you think more about them than you do yourself.
