Split Your Heart, Not Your Tongue

I was waiting for something But it never came I'm not sure what But it all feels the same There's this feeling I was supposed to get At least that's what they all say But I'm not sure what Because it all feels the same way I thought I had it for a minute But it was a false alarm One second, it was gone The feeling was disarmed I'm still waiting for something As it all turns out But in reality, I did this to myself'... From the upcoming poetry book/journal by S. Elle Cameron: This Really Happened

Life is a journey Take it one day at a time I hate cliches  But I guess it's true We can't control everything And the things we can We have to learn to let go sometime Most of life is luck Very little is hard work Being at the right place at the right time Making the right decision Even though you had no idea it was the "right" one We punish for things we didn't cause And celebrate things we don't deserve But that's life And it's all we have Until we're done here Life is a journey Enjoy it Live it Take it Cry it Love it

I can still feel you near But I can't touch you What such despair! I can't see you anymore And the tears blur my vision Can't figure out what all this is for I remember your smell But now your scent is gone And there's nothing left to tell I can still hear your voice It's in my head all the time But I'm forced to do without it, I don't have a choice I have the bitter taste of regret Just sitting there on my tongue But there's no going back, time is already set...

Nothing's the same And I always fear change When I'm not sure if it's for the better I like routine And you don't get what that means So, I'm not sure it's for the better Some things you want to end While others you want to mend God, I hope it's for the better Maybe I'll like it Or accept what I get We'll see if it's for the better

I was addicted to sadness It was my favorite mistake I embraced my inner madness And it opened the gates Locking myself alone Was my favorite childhood pastime Practicing a bitter tone Developing anger I could call mine And I may have been 5 years old But I knew what I was doing Sadness was the only thing I could hold Something new inside was brewing But it made me who I am So, what are you going to do? It opened up a flooded dam My favorite mistake was missing you  

I'll find the best corner at the party and live it up Blue lights blinking on and off I'll sit until you notice me Won't leave until you notice me... I'll look on and wish that I could be so free I watch you laugh But you don't notice me Won't leave until you notice me I'll talk to you and share some jokes While the loud music plays You finally noticed me Won't leave until you notice me  I'll make my way out the door Simply because I know Even though we spoke, you didn't notice me You'll never notice me... 

Everything great starts with a fall Just like everything big starts with something small We're all just pieces of atoms Stardust combined And out comes this person, destined for something big It's inside of us all, we just have to dig We're all alive because of a cell We all have futures no one can tell Something hidden on the inside Unfathomable things We're nothing but gathered elements Struggling to make the best of our presence

I'm a rebel at heart I'm a timid soul I love a good crowd I love to be alone Two lies and a truth More like 3 truths and a lie Which one is it? Go ahead, take your time.

Over or under There's no in between I'm overwhelmed  With my passions and dreams My mind won't stop racing The time moves too fast My body won't stop pacing How long will it last? I'm underwhelmed by life There's not much to it It bores me by the night So I just think and sit Of new ways to make it happen Don't know where I'm going I can hear my brain laughing Not sure what I'm sowing

You may be older and don't run around like you used to But I still love you to the moon and back You may be bad and tear up things that's new But I love you to the moon and back And nothing will ever change that You may not be feeling well these days And we're not sure what exactly is wrong But I'm sure you'll be okay Because you've always been strong I'll love you to the moon and back You may only be 13 pounds but you're so much bigger to me I'll love you to the moon and back I promise I won't ever leave Even when your time is limited, that day will come But none of that will change a thing Because the moon isn't far enough Neither is the sun So I'm rooting for you my Poodle Love I mean it, you're the best dog in the world Because no one comes close Not a boy or any girl You're the only one who can make my heart skip a beat And I'm trying to keep this poem short, nice and...

Dear old friends, you sort of took who I was Sigh... Dear the ones who had so much to say, my confidence shattered Thanks Dear anyone who would listen, I'm slowly getting it back Watch Dear the ones who helped, it's all appreciated Truth Dear who I am, it's all up to you Go
