So I like to write songs/poems whenever I get inspiration, or when something happens in my life. Most of these have something to do with me. So yeah 
Songs:
Poems
Songs:
- Truth You look at my face
And ask if everything’s okay?
Even though it’s not
I smile and nod anyway.
We’ve been growing far apart
Yet you someone hold a piece of my heart
And I can’t let go
Of what you hold.
You don’t know the real me anymore.
You forgot how to love me.
And I sit here in an empty house every night.
You think I buy your lies.
You think I don’t know the truth.
Is she good to you?
Does she make your dreams come true?
Is she all you ever wanted?
Or just something you needed?
I don’t have the strength and the heart
To tell you all these things.
I still pray one day
You’ll come running home to me.
You don’t know the real me anymore.
You forgot how to love me.
And I sit here in an empty house every night.
You think I buy your lies.
You think I don’t know the truth.
One day, your not gonna see my face anymore
One day I’m gonna walk through the door.
One day, I’m gonna get up and fly.
I’m sick of it this time.
I’m sick of your lies.
You don’t know the real me anymore.
You forgot how to love me.
And I sit here in an empty house every night.
You think I buy your lies.
You think I don’t know the truth. - GoodbyeIf I could go back in time and make things right I would.
If I could go back in time and change your mind I would.
I’m sorry for all the wrong I did, for all the things I shouldn’t have said.
But why did you have to leave me?
It’s like you held a gun right up to my heart
And with one shot you tore me apart.
And now I’m forced to start all over again.
Cause one minute you’re here and the next you’re gone
It’s like roller coaster that I’m living on.
I never thought I’d lose you. I never thought I would.
And life’s getting by like the end of time.
Because in the end I thought you’d be mine.
And the one thing I never got to say was goodbye.
The worst part is all my regrets
Of knowing what we could’ve had, what I could’ve said.
And the pain is only getting stronger
While my cuts are getting deeper.
How much longer til it just stops?
It’s like you held a gun right up to my heart
And with one shot you tore me apart
And now I’m forced to start all over again.
Cause one minute you’re here and the next you’re gone.
It’s like a roller coaster that I’m living on.
I never though I’d lose you. I never thought I would.
And life’s getting by like the end of time.
Because in the end, I thought you’d be mine.
And the one thing I never got to say was goodbye.
It hurts to know you’re gone
That you left without a trace
And I’m standing her alone
With just the memory of your face
If I had another chance
I would try to make you see
All the wrong I did to you, but all the good you did to me..
Cause one minute you’re here and the next you’re gone
It’s like roller coaster that I’m living on.
I never thought I’d lose you. I never thought I would.
And life’s getting by like the end of time.
Because in the end I thought you’d be mine.
And the one thing I never got to say, the one thing I never got to say, oh if I could have it any other way we’d never say… goodbye.
Poems
- Innocence
Life goes by too fast.
You get stuck in the past.
There’s a man in the picture, and the girl you once knew
Is a lady.
Yet, you are still alone.
She’s flown off to a new nest, taking risks.
And you, you have stayed where it’s safe.
Now you sit here in an empty room
Staring at pictures on the wall.
Life didn’t turn out the way you thought at all
You remember the times where things were colorful
Filled with joy and laughter.
Now they are black and white
Nothing but scattered petals, lost in the wind.
Just memories. - Soldier's Prayer
A clash in the air
A soldier falling to the ground
You never realize life
Until you're going down
With the last of his breath
He turned to me
He told me these words
That I would never forget
He said "Go back home.
Go back to the place where I'm known.
Tell my family it's alright.
That I was born to fight.
Let them know I'm always with them
Let them know I'm always there
If they ever need me
Just say a little prayer.
I never wanted this
But it was a risk I was willing to take
And if you asked me to redo it
I wouldn't have taken back that mistake.
Tell them I love them.
Tell them to never forget.
Tell them to not feel guilty
And go through life without regrets."
With those final words he closed his eyes.
He took one last gasp for air.
I thought I heard him calling to God
There is nothing more powerful than a soldier's prayer.
It's my favourite.
