Your pink dampened pillow
Only sponges the hurt
For when you can't take anymore
You say life could be better
Well, map out your scars
Your path has been worse
Yet you've endured
Don't forget what you told me
How our inspirations
They stem from our dreams
Oh, the joy they could bring
And please keep believing
In all that you're worth
And one day you'll get
All you deserve
I know you will go so far
And be treated like the beauty you are
To live a life free of worries and fears
And be one with all that you hold dear

Our Last Goodbye

There's nothing more I need than to see you when I wake
To open the blinds and watch the sun rise upon your face
All day I despise the air that flows within you while you breathe
Your clothing, your hair, whatever's close to you when I can't be
Oh, sweet child of April showers
The undying flowers that you bring
They light my way through darkest hours
You carry me with angels wings
You lift the weight that helps all to grow that lies beneath
And I'll realize all I'll miss
Before you've even gone away
Cause I know this is true
The strength and hope I feel with you
And I know you feel it too
All my questions have been answered
Within the kindness of your eyes
That's why I treat every parting
Like it's our last goodbye

The fear is not so haunting
An unraveling spin into nothing
A pile of linen on the floor
Still I know just what you're thinking
"How can I fail if I don't exist?
How many things would still be perfect?"
Sometimes it is not easy
To lift yourself up to your knees
The bath tile welcomes your embrace
The cold sweat on your head
I understand that there are days
Where it's a feat just to awaken
And with such a long road ahead
I pray one day things will be perfect for you

I'm not what you want
But I could be all you need
But I am not pristine
Or as beautiful as he
I hope one day you'll see me
For who I am
That I will wait for you
Till the stars I've wished upon
They begin to decay and fade away
I just want to say
That your voice ignites my being
But I'm scared to exist
In a world where you'd shun me
So I'll just hang my head
As my agony fades to anger
I will wait for you till the stars I've wished upon, they decay
I will wait for you till the stars I've wished upon, they fade away
I will wait for you till the final petal falls

Drown

Bone dry, a drought within
My savior on a shelf; ashen
And I can't decide when the time is right to try
But you said that it's okay to let go
"And how?" asked I
"Just seep into my ground.
It will make sense in time."
Now two become one
I submit to these binds
You've drowned yourself
As will I
Into your ground

Grace

I have sailed against the tide
Hoping to find your face
I have walked a thousand miles
Only to find no trace
Beneath these cerulean skies
Can I claim what's mine and embrace?
Can I grasp what's left behind
A touch divine, your grace
My only hope is to be seen
Through eyes just like the way yours have viewed me
Viewed me

"You do so much for me."
"It's alright. There's a place for you that's light, and warm, and safe.
And when you're ready, you'll go there.
You brought love and joy to so many people.
All of us...all of us here tonight have grown to love you.
I did. You can carry that love with you wherever you go.
Embrace every minute of life while we have it.
When you're ready, you can let go. It's alright.
You can walk into the light."
