"I WISH"

-
I wish it were all a dream,
My feelings for you a fantasy.
I wish I'd never felt this way,
For it seems you don't feel the same.

I wish we could be on the same side,
When it comes to our feelings, our hearts beating as one.
But you see me only as a friend,
Leaving me to conceal my true emotions, my love unspoken.

Your presence paralyzes me; I'm frozen, unable to move or breathe.
Even walking becomes a challenge.
My heart skips a beat, my soul stirred by your gaze.

But it's just a wish, a dream of bliss I had hoped was real.
After all we've been through, I told you I loved you,
Yet you threw it all in the trash for a guy in a flashy car.

Stranded, I wonder: How did I miss the signs?
How did I not see the light?
How did I lose sight of the darkness lurking in the dark?

I wish I could go back.
I wish this was all a dream.

"JEWELS"

-
Shining and glamorous,  But none compare's, To the smile on your face,  I wonder why you're not famous. But I'm glad I have you all to myself,  My one, my only, The jewels of the world I have none, By your expressions, priceless. I cannot live without, My dreams, My desires, Revolve around you,  But you do not look too pleased, A sense of uncertainty I see, I can't talk about my feelings, But I try to express them in my actions  My heart, You hold the keys, And I don't know where it lies, So in your hands, I lay my head. Till you find the keys, I'm yours,  Always and forever.

"CONFIDENCE"

-
The evidence of my confidence Lies in my innocence. My area of residence, I give precedences And show acceptance To those with diligence. Have no room for negligence, Show indifference to my opposition. Don't give a damn About the condition. Close my eyes, show no conviction. Walk with confidence In this world, my residence. With an empowered mindset And a silent presence, I stand and watch Those cower in fear. I am reminded Of my past self, Broken and driven By fear. But out of the shadows, A new presence resides. I wasn't born with it, It was something I had to learn, Something I now teach. Though hidden, My confident stride Can never be taken.

"UNSPOKEN"

-
Don't ask a question unless you want a confession. I'm tired of all this aggression. Don't you know my reputation? Look at me, I'm not at my prime, Just trying to pass time. So I write a couple lines, and they say that's a crime. They say I'm wrong, that I should stop singing my song. Don't they know my words are tender? Ain't playing games, ain't a sender. I profess my love and confess my sins. Yet am drowning in my own skin, Trying so hard to be free, Trying so hard to be me, After years of going unseen. Here I stand speaking my truth, Telling my tale, To those in the shadows, Those unknown. Cause I have outgrown, The stage they reside, The pain, Unspoken.
