Doors

There are doors in life that should never be opened
and doors that you wish you had
there are doors that take you to the wrong places
and doors that only make you sad
There are doors in life that are unanswered questions
never having been explored
and doors that let you learn and grow
and those that leave you bored
There are doors in life you’re too scared to open
for fear that you will fail to walk through
and those that steal away pieces of your soul
in ways you never knew
There are doors that lead to both good and bad
and those that lead to nowhere at all
doors that change your life and those that make you pay
and then some are just a bathroom stall
Lost

All the things you lost because of what you’ve done
all you could have had and now you’re left with none
time and time again offered everything you dreamed
only to find that you were nothing that you seemed
Could have had it all but lost everything with your lies
cannot get it back no matter how many tries
forever lost all that you worked for so long
now you’re at the bottom where you truly belong
All of it could have been yours if only you were true
success unlike anything you knew
just waiting there for you to take
and all that you have lost with just the one mistake
Now you are so much less than you could have been
and nothing that you wanted will ever come again
lost it all no one’s fault but your own it’s true
no one else to blame for there is only you
Rushing

All the while I thought I had put it all away
the memories of what was left as they lay
with just one look there they came rushing back again
taking my heart back to remember when
So hard I’ve tried to push away at the edges of my soul
slowly piecing back together the parts to make a whole
and rushing back now overwhelmed unable to make them stop
like raindrops of memory drop by drop by drop
Like a river it overtakes me and I can no longer breathe it seems
invading every thought awake even into my dreams
things I thought were long since gone are back just as real
if I could only find a way to no longer feel
Rushing waters of memory wash over my soul as waves upon the sand
battering on every emotion so hard now just to stand
slowly I push back until the water I no longer feel
left once again to wonder what was and wasn’t real
Center

Here at the center of my world was where you once did reside
in my heart and soul the place you did abide
there was only you no one else the center of my space
now there’s just an empty whole that once was your place
Once the center of my everything I needed nothing more
where no one else had dared to tread before
let you in until there was nothing left of me
but you were only using and I was too blind to see
The very center of me and all that I held dear
my only thought was how to always keep you near
but you were only lying with every breath I took
with every word, every motion, every single look
Now that center left laid waste is filled with someone new
someone who truly loves me not a pretender like you
they give me everything you never did with love and all that’s real
and now at my center once again I truly feel
Everything

So many people want so many things they look right past what’s already there
things that they want too much and never get bypassing everything in front of them
pushing and pushing for things that will never be a reality in their lives
while letting the things they already have slip through their fingers
It’s always the grass is greener or if I only had this or that life would be perfect
but they fail to realize their life is already the best it can be
they walk right past the people who love them most
and try to find someone better someone they want more
They run right by all the things staring them in the face trying to find that elusive something else
and they inevitably end up without the things they thought they wanted and losing all that they had
you can only bypass the ones who care for you most for so long before they let go
and in the end it is you who is less by wanting something you had all along
