Time is mysteriously tricky.  The faster you want it to go, the slower it goes.  The slower you want it to go, the faster it goes.

I remember when we used to hold hands and run through the forest beyond your backyard.  When we played with you dolls in the dark with a flashlight.  I thought you'd never grow up.

But like I said, time was against us.  You grew up.  Barbies went in the trash, memories went into dust.  We never play anymore.  You completely ignored me.  It was like you were blind to me.  I had to hop around to avoid bumping into you.  But then I knew.

I will be forever young and you forever old.  Sometimes you don't realize it, but I'm still here.  

You walk to and from the metro everyday.  Yet you still don't see me standing here.  

I've watched you as you take the escalator down into the metro station.  As you insert board the metro.  Always staying at least 20 feet apart.  But you never cared to look who's behind you.

I've done this everyday for a years now.  2 times a day, 7 days a week.  Sometimes your eyes glance around, not even stopping a second at me.  I know it's hard to believe that I'm still alive, but I would've never believe that you gave up trying.

Just turn your head.  Notice the girl that's always following you.  The girl who has those familiar copper eyes, the eyes that you used to see every single night.  The girl that you spent a fortune trying to find.  The girl that you also gave up on a long time ago.

Every night I sleep under the stars, dreaming that you would finally realize that I'm was right here all along.  But dreams never last.  And in the morning the truth is always painful.  

Maybe I should give up too.  Move on.  Yet I just can't let go of you.  

When are you going to see me as I am.  I'm no stranger.  I was your best friend.  I was the one that you would tell all your secrets to.  I was the one that comforted you at night when tears were spilled.  I was the one that you would celebrate with when you got a promotion.

I was and will forever be your daughter.

Give the hitchhiker a ride

Was what he said

I obeyed

Because he was after all

My friend

Turn right here

Was what he said

I obeyed

Because he was after all 

My friend

I drove into a dark alley

I felt a gate close over my heart

Come over here

Was what he said

I obeyed

Why shouldn't I refuse a friend?

The pale moonlight reflected off 

A blade

As the hitchhiker pulled it out

And I wonder for the first time 

If he really was a friend

Its breath smells like moldy cheese

Its teeth looks like it too

It's no surprise why no one visits anymore

I don't know how many more of me it's planning to eat

Or how many it already did

Doesn't anyone know that it's cruel to eat a Christmas cookie?

Dear Santa I would want a kitten and a puppy and unlimited chocolate don't forget a vacation to Paris where I find my soulmate who spoils me while my new book sells a million copies but that's not all I also want a brand new Ferrari that comes with WiFi and a $500 gift card to spend at Barnes and Nobles please pardon my bad grammar and punctuation after all it's still counts as one sentence!

Rain

Tears gather together

To comfort each other

Wishing to wash the flaws of world away

Again and again

No matter how perfect her face is shaped

Or how much knowledge his brain contains

We are all broken inside

Pieces of us

Like delicate fragments of a glass vase

Glued together

We are all sane 

Yet balancing on the border

Whoever you are

Whatever you have

And wherever you come from

You're no different from me

Or from him or her

No matter who you are

We are all broken inside

War rages on

Love affair blooms

Choices must be made

Sides taken

Is the ending happily-after-all?

We haven't talked for a week.  One.  Whole.  Week.  Although we see each other every single day, we act as though we are strangers.  I try to be strong, not letting you see my pain, but it made it worse.  Seeing you talking with other girls, laughing about inside jokes, giving them the smile that once belonged to me.  And still belongs to me.  

I know I should have approached you sooner, forgiving you.  If was a small quarrel, a stupid one about cheating.  I knew that you were telling the truth when you said that the woman calling you was a colleague.  I shouldn't have had so many doubts.

And I forget all my qualms when I see a smile on your face... You are everything in my life, my soul, my heart.  Believe me when I say this, I have always belonged to you, and my heart will always be yours to shatter, then carefully mend together again.  I will love you until the sky falls down and the ground cracks open.

Forgive me for not forgiving you.
