I'm afraid to cry I'm afraid to be heard To be asked what's wrong. The pressure builds up I'm ready to explode I must hold it in Alone in my room I collapse on the bed, Tears stinging my eyes All pain I've endured, All the loss I've sustained, The anger inside. Stop me from crying Breathe relief right through me Heal my puncture wounds It hurts me to cry Stop the tears from flowing Take the pain away No one can help me Because no one can know I'm tearing apart. No one must realize A tough girl so broken Is just what I am, But the evidence On my tear-stained pillow Shows I can't go on

Raspberry rain and cantaloupe clouds Loom furrowing overhead Strawberry strides and lemon leaps Take people to escape the future Papaya pleas and watermelon wishes Go unheard in the downpour Tangerine torrents and gooseberry gusts Force the trees to bow at their mercy Banana bands and mango marchers Ward off the growing storm Hogplum hugs and kiwi fruit kisses Spread around like wildfires Elderberry enigmas and nectarine nights Hide the fury of all nature Apple aptitudes and ita palm intuitions Rule the minds of the world Date decisions and jackfruit justice Turn the world back to order Ugli fruit understanding and velvet

As the new flakes fall before me, now huge in size, As the grass fades faster with every second, snow dancing around, As the distance falls into a far-off dream,   I press my face against the frosted window bay. Before my fingers wiggle, warm in wool, mud-browned,   Before my hat rests snug upon my head (the color of cream), Before my toes sink into my boots, silver as the skies, I have to ask my mother if I may. While that perfect snowball shatters apart with a scream, While the sled skids across a patch where weeds arise,   While white angels appear, scattered imprints on the ground, My nose runs down to my bluing lips, and

As the meadow grass graces my fingertips, As feathery clouds float high in the air, As the daisy chain adorns my crown, I dream of freedom. While the silver raindrops plummet to the ground, While lightning illuminates the heavens, While the wind bellows through the branches, I dream of power. Before the waves break upon the sandy shore, Before the gentle breeze teases my hair, Before the little forest brook rolls, I dream of peace. After the chords complement the melody, After every candle blazes as one, After the nations dance together, I dream of harmony. Until a bond unbroken becomes certain, Until your secret whispers rea

I am the angel on her shoulder I am the sparkle in her eye I am the arms that hold her I am the tear upon her skin I am the quiver on her lip I am the fire within I am the sunshine on her hair I am the earth beneath her feet I am the warm country air I am a whisper in the night I am the stars up in the sky I am a small bird in flight I am the child with the rose I am that kitten's playful nip I am the mother who knows I am the first strawberry, so red I am the wind in fields of wheat I am the pillow for your head I am Angelspirit

Hope is but a sliver of light A fading silhouette against the crimson moon Consumed by a fiery celestial element Diminishing slowly and surely into oblivion The stars appear around the fading light One by one, they peek out from the darkness Hoping to exist merely long enough to be noticed They glimmer in the ebony nothingness Frivolously whispering sweet nothings to the air Twinkling eyes of love, these stars are Chanting rhymes and reasons to beings on earth Beckoning souls together without a thought Who can trust the stars? When the light grows again, they cry. Anxiety grows with each moment of its reconciliation Apprehensiv

Captain Abee stood upon the bow of his ship, overlooking the sea.  The salty sea air threatened to toss his captains hat, adorned with a perfect white exclamation point on the front, into the blue waters of the piers below.  In his hand, he held a treasure map leading to the fabled Ellamenoh Pea. "Captain!" called First Mate Jay Kaye, "Is our course planned?" Captain Abee walked slowly over to his First Mate.  Clunk, clop, clunk, clop, clunk, clop.  He stared at him for a moment before replying, "No," and continuing on to his cabin.  Clunk, clop, clunk, clop, clunk, clop. In his cabin, Captain Abee very carefully plotted the course they wi

The sky had been bluer than the bluest of sapphires that fateful day.  The great sun beamed down upon little Caedyn as she played just outside the village of Elryia.  The child veered too near the Lyra cliffs, and tumbled to her death. Caedyn's spirit did not ascend to the heavens, as most would have done.  No, instead, it stood alone by the child's lifeless body.   Now Caedyn's spirit was very sad and alone.  It began to wander the fields in search of another spirit who may be her friend. After a fruitless search of the vast fields in the realm of Elryia, the spirit headed off towards the Talatian woods.  It wandered the path, then stray
