Silence

Silence has a sound,
but I don't hear it until I hit the ground.

The sound of your voice not saying what it should,
the look of your empty hands,
not doing what they could.

You shake your head at my inablilty to carry the burden,
you will leave me here,
I am certain.

It's not somewhere I haven't been before, but without you to save me,
I cannot be sure..

Can I stand and walk away from this
or am I sentenced to a silence that
I didn't miss?

Look at me with disdain,
shake your head at my pain.

I'm too far gone to save,
so leave me here in this cave.

Don't frown at me like that,
it was too much,
and I couldn't help but crack.

REBELS!

Here we are,
the mighty S.F.R!
We're here to show the spirit of us all;
With grit and strength,
just watch us and you'll see,
we're true rebels,
we fight for victory!

Knowing Me

You know if I'm happy,
or if I'm pretending to be.
You know all this with a single glance,
you know me.

I can't say it's a strength,
more of a downfall.
You may notice things you wish hadn't,
after climbing over that wall.

I'm sorry in advance
for the acting ability I don't possess,
and that I wish I could be better,
this I confess.

Better;
I wish I could be;
But now your greatest weakness
is knowing me.

Dreams

Sing me a lullaby,
right here
tonight.

Something sweet
and terrible.
But beautiful,
and daring.

About the girl
who gets up after being knocked down
time and time again.

About the boy who endures all
accepts nothing,
and won't ever fall.

The child who grows up too fast,
the one who will never come in last.

Of running and never looking back,
not missing what we had.

Of being heard,
and being loud,
being happy
and being proud.

Of catching stars,
and leading nations.
Of ending wars
and much elation.

Sing me something
to make my dreams happy.
Maybe
one day they'll be
reality.

You

Hold me in Your hands,
lift me up with You.

Hide me here,
and keep me safe
in all that I do.

I tend to fall alot,
so I am quite happy
you're the one
my misfortune caught.

Remind me you're here
with a word or two in my heart.

I'll thank you at the end of the day
and every start.

Blessings are many with me,
I just forget to count.
Now I see,
with crystal clarity.

I'm here because of You,
for You,
with You.

And always
I thank You.

Canada

I hear Canada is still nice,
and the mounties don't know anything.
I'm all out of advice,
and I think the country would be pretty, come spring.

20 Years From Now

20 years from now,
where we will be?
Come back to this place,
and then you'll see.

Will we be crazy?
Will be gone?
Will we be together?
Or alone?

Will we have accomplished what we wanted to?
Will I be able to recognize you?

We'll reminisce on how great we were,
Laughter for sure.

If asked in 20 years,
what do you want,
see,
wish,
or who will you be?

People will list
all the things they want to do,

but

20 years from now,
all I want
is to still know you.
