Anger.

Ahh, Anger rises up yet again.
Boiling, heating, rushing through your blood.
You bring a new deffintion to hot blooded.
It rises to your hand, you last out
Blood on the floor
your wife sits there crying
Her cheeck drips blood slowly.
The hatred just radiates from her eyes now
She can't leave
you wont let her
She tried and you almost killed her.
-Michelle Dawn

Strongest

I see her standing there
standing so strong,
looking without a care.
You'd never guess
what she keeps inside.
All the hate and pain.
She locks it all up,
So who has the key?
You'd never guess, but I do.
I opened her up, and the things youd see
would make you hate.
Would make you see why shes so strong.
Why you're so wrong.
She's the strongest girl
The strongest I've ever seen.
She's been through so much,
but still so adoring in each and every way.
-Michelle Dawn

Home

I hate this place

full of sorrow and tears

I've never done 

a thing right here

In this place 

where friends turn

you lose those your closest to.

They leave without a second glance

yeah, that's what we call friends.

Sometimes I think about home. 

I loved it there,

yet then I was so innocent. 

Were things as I thought? 

Or is it just time playing on memories? 

If I could go back, 

to the place I call home, 

would I stay?

Or would I go?

But most of all, would you care? 

Not Enough

I give up on everything.

Don’t care about a thing.

Acting like I’m okay.

So tired of smiling the pain away.

Not sure I can take it.

Not even for a little bit.

Stabbed in the back.

What is it that I lack?

Feeling pretty low.

Where’d the love go?

I’ll say that I’m fine,

Living so divine.

Just another cover.

Only so you won’t hover.

No more acting strong.

Not when everythings all wrong.

I know it’ll be alright.

Just maybe not tonight.

I need a little time,

And something to call mine.

Give me a moment to heal.

It seems all too surreal.

One Breath

If I had one last breath left.
What would I say?
Something sweet, oh so sweet.
something for you.
To you I'd say,
You make the sun shine,
when it rains.
You make me smile,
when I'm crying.
You're the calm,
In the middle of the storm.
You're logic,
when I'm crazy.
The air I need,
when I suffocate.
Listening when I rant.
I'd say to you,
that I love you with all my heart.
I promise we'll make it through,
Nothing can stop us now.
I'll give you my heart, my soul, and my body
Forever.

Three Part Harmony

The walls are the only ones to hear my tears,
no one see's this fake smile
thats been holding on for all these miles
I feel like I'm losing you
and I don't know what to do

I feel all these temptations
They're creeping up on me
I can already feel the sensation
Razor blades do for me

I'm starting to realize
All of this was nothing real
You told me nothing but lies
I'm moving on
To someone so much better
-Michelle Dawn

The Silence

Silent tears fill the night
Only the walls can see
The hurt and pain that’s inside
No one can see her heart break
For all the tears she sheds
Another pill she will take
Silent tears fill the night
Only the music isn’t keeping her alive
No point in living
If no one cares
It’s not like she matters
The face he doesn’t love her
Is just unbearable
Silent tears fill the night
As she holds the razor to her skin
She thinks maybe he’d notice
She sliced and the crimson poured
How her life could have been
 But no one will know,
She thought he would care
If he knew she cried
For him in the night
Would it matter?
That she died for him?
-Michelle Dawn

Shadows Play Life

Isn't someone missing?
Doesn't any one notice?
I've been gone for so long.
In my place, this loving shadow.
So fake it looks real.
I've been so alone,
I'm here without you.
But it was what you wanted,
When your words cut me to peices.
These wounds you've made,
They just wont heal.
I try to say you're gone,
but my heart wont believe it.
So I'm stuck here waiting,
While my shadow plays life for me.
-Michelle Dawn

Logan Barrow

Heart starts to flutter.
Head starts to spin.
Knees begin to shake.

When I'm with you,
it's all I can do to think.
All sanity leaves my mind.
pure, white hot passion.
Love straight from the heart.
Not based on logic.

I've always wanted,
but never found.
Now I understand.
It was never a soul mate.
Never my other half.

Never let you go,
my perfect other half.
Adorable, perfectly imperfect,
ginger.
Never meet another.
We've bonded so well.
No one understood me.
Until you.
I love you.

You and Only You

Heart skips a beat
Cheeks burning red
Butterfly's racing
Toes curling
Eyes Sparkling bright.

These are the things you do to me.
Haven't felt like this,
In so long now.
No need to move too fast.
There can always be a future.

Getting to know each other,
is the best part.
The flirting and the giggling
The seriousness and playfulness
all the stuff we have in common

It all makes for a great relationship
We'll someday have (hopefully)
Don't want to rush into it
Don't want to force a thing
Though, nothing so far has been forced

For once I'm not pushing it
I'm letting it come and
I actually like you a lot
You're a fantastic guy and
I'm lucky you like me
--Michelle Milligan

Consumption

Can you feel it?
The anger building up inside.
Filling you up, eat at you.
Consuming what is left for fuel,
To a fire that can't be put out.

Anger so strong.
Radiating around you.
Your permantent aura.
I can see it bubbling on you.
I can feel it like cold hatred.

You're so obviously lost.
Let the tears wash away
All the worries of today.

The stormy weather
Reflects what is really within.

Not a thing can be done.
You can't lose control.
You're loosing yourself.
Whats left is only pain.

What Have We Done?

I wonder if they see,
Everything that's in front of me.
The pain people hide inside.
Children all alone.
Emanciated, rumbling tummies.
Hot tears rolling down sunken cheeks.
The world falling apart.
To late to do a thing.
You see what we've wrought,
On a world that was so innocent?
-Michelle Milligan

Perfect World

No more worries.
No more cares.
Wouldn't it be perfect??
Living in a world so fare?

Pain could be a thing of the past.
Everyones happiness can last.
People can be accepted,
with no more hatred.

What a shame,
You think we're
all the same.
--Michelle Milligan

Miles and Miles Apart

I still remember it, oh so well.
Every part carved in a memory.
Legs pressing, skin to skin.
Heart thumping, cheeks burning.
Oh, I remember it all.
Ha, not sex.
But the sudden burst of courage
He took to grab me in his arms.

I thought he was perfect.
Not a thing could go wrong.
The sweetest thing to ever lay eyes on.
Most perfect liar ever known.
Miles and miles apart...
Never good enough.

How could I have known,
What he would do?
Somestimes I still wonder
how he could have thrown it all away.
It's just another memory.
Oh well, theres someone better waiting for me<3
-Michelle Milligan

Holding On

Why do you hold on?
Do you love to be in pain?
Do love to hate?
If you don't quit...
This will end in tragedy.
If you don't realize,
Hes not "it",
He won't choose you,
That he's already moved on,
You'll end up a mess.
A worthless
Hopeless
Mess.
-Michelle Milligan

Come And Gone

Last Chances,
They come and go.
his came,
And now it's gone.
You said you loved him.
He said it back.
You made a mistake.
He doesn't believe you,
When you say it wont,
Ever happen again.
I promise you,
That he'll never believe.
I know that too well.
Why are you wasting your breath?
Why do insist on loving him so?
Your heart breaks,
With everyword.
Every cold moment.
With every hot one.
He can't decide,
But neither can you.
-Michelle Millgan

Forbidden

We were caught up in each other.
So aware of one another.
Our worthless one night stand,
Spent in the sand.

Love growing stronger,
We're growing together.
Oh, how wrong it was,
But only because

There was someone at home
Waiting by the phone.
I was nothing.
She was everything.

I don't care
It was only fare.
I didn't know,
I'd have to let you go.

So tell me now...
How do I
Finally
say goodbye?
-Michelle Milligan

Secrets I'll Never Tell

All these secrets and lies eat me up inside.
All i want to do
is tell the damn truth.
But how do I break the cycle
when it's all I've ever known

I'm not even sure
I know how to say
whats really there.

You believe you know
everything from the inside out
But the truth is
you only know the safe.

I keep whats left bottled up.
So much that
I'm scared to let anyone in.
My sign of weakness.
Someone knowing everything.

One dark secret?
Try several.
Everything is half truths.
I'm fine, nothings wrong.

Truth is,
most the time I am.
I am totally fine.
But theres still that part
holding back all the secrets.

I'll never let you know.
What goes on deep inside.
I'm scared you'll leave me too.
Or hurt me like the others.
--Michelle Milligan
