Changes

the tears fall, but i'm not crying...

manage to put a smile on my face, but i'm not happy...

i look in your eyes and tell the truth...

i look deeper into my own heart and find the lies...

the truth unfolds like our favorite stories end...

mix the truth and the lies; that's where the beginning ends...

we all love to hear the story...

  but at what cost?...

still crying over being happy...

smiling when we are sad...

when is it going to change?...

when is it going to end?...

why am "i" so hard to find?...

how can my emotions be so hard to locate?...

tears still fall over joy...

pain still causes me to smile...

what is this life for?...

what are you waiting for?...

do i need to spell out my personalities?...

  and yes i did say "ties"...

if you have not finished my story and fit the pieces together...

let me spell it out for you...

READY?!!!...

C.O.M.P.L.I.C.A.T.E.D

we all love love...

but yet we all hate...

we seem to run after what we love to hate...

cherished dreams boil down to hateful anxiety...

when is it going to change?...

when is it going to end?...

when does complicated narrow down to complex?...

is it so hard to comprehend?...

i still love love...

i still hate hate...

when is it going to end?...

when is it going to change?...
