Living Through Lyrics - 7/29/09

The power is yours
The song is your own
To open the doors
To bring light to unknown

The music so intense
The speakers might bleed
The sounds jump the fence
Ride away on the steed

The lyrics are your life
If you let them be
They can take away the strife
Of the rest, of you and me

You can live through the lyrics
Live on forever
Just let one person hear it
And you’ve opened the endeavor

I feel it necessary to make an 'about' section for this one.
Was working on a lesson of language arts, and wound up with this. Don't really care for it, at all, but I figured I'd post it anyway.

Admiration and Appreciation - 7/22/09

Not expecting admiration
Or aspiring for a crown
Not looking for appreciation
Just waiting for a letdown

Waiting for a call
Waiting for someone
Nothing left but to fall
And we’re expecting no one

A strange, numb feeling
In a broken home
There is no time for healing
We still feel alone

Soon it will be lost
The expectations hover
It comes at a cost
Just until it’s over
