I miss you so much
The smell of your hair
The feel of you arms
And every time I think of you
My heart breaks in two
And Then I'll remember
My last time with you
There's nothing I could do
I couldn't save you
You lie under the waves now
And here I am,
Paying for trying to save you.
~Maggie Lee
....I don't like this one...
Good bye Soda
Good bye Monster
Good bye poison in my veins
Good bye toxic sugar
And all those other things
No more will I kill myself
Slowly
Each and every day
But instead I bid good bye
To Death
That's waiting by my side
~ Maggie Lee
Soda and Monster are terrible for you. Which is why, as of right now, this very instant, I am giving them up. I don't like asking Death to take my life, when there's so much to live for.
They came with hammers
And paint
With black
And with red
To build a scene
That fills the night
With dread
The time just before dark
When no song comes
From the lark
When the robin is silent
While the cougar it rest
And no harm is meant
They paint the sky
Dark
Their hammers are tapping
The scene they are building
Come
Sprinkle sparks through
The skies
Come watch
The Dusk Builders
Paint in the skies
~ Maggie Lee
I DIDN'T WRITE THIS AND DON'T OWN ANY PART OF THIS SONG.
I Love You This Much
He can't remember
The times that he thought
Does my daddy love me?
Probably not
That didn't stop him
From wishing that he did
Didn't keep him from wanting
Or worshipping him
He guesses he saw him
About once a year
He could still feel the way he felt
Standing in tears
Stretching his arms out
As far as they'd go
Whispering daddy
I want you to know
[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
He grew to hate him for what he had done
'cause what kind of father
Could do that to his son?
He said 'damn you daddy'
The day that he died
The man didn't blink
But the little boy cried
[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
Half way through the service
While the choir sang a hymn
He looked up above the preacher
And he sat and stared at him
He said
'forgive me father'
When he realized
That he hadn't been unloved
Or alone all his life
His arms were stretched out
As far as they'd go
Nailed to the cross
For the whole world to know
[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
As I look up
Things swirl around
Shades of blue
Come from
Roads of brown
Roads of brown
Fade to fields of green
Is this real,
Or just a dream?
Do you care,
Or are you mocking?
How do you control
My heart?
Its stopping?
How do you hold
My life
In your gaze?
How do I escape
From this haze?
Why can I fly
When I look to your eyes?
Why do I sigh
When time won't pass by?
Do you cause this?
Or is it me?
Is this my capture?
Or am I free?
~ Maggie Lee
Come with me
I'll be your everything
There's nothing I can't do
For you now
So come with me
Your everything
Out of the light
Join me in the dark
Tonight
Screaming my pain
For the world to hear
I'm slammed into the wall
Of loneliness
By your evil words
Words that burn my soul
You plunge you sword
Through my heart
But you can't stop its beating
Because it never did start
So leave me now
Get out of my sight
I don't want you here
By my side
At least not tonight
Not when you're killing me
Inside
So leave my sight
Or choose to die tonight
So here I am
Laying in a pool
Of my own blood
Cause by your sword
And your hate filled words
Just leave me here
Dieing will
Save my life
For the first time
But my heart doesn't beat anyways
So swear to me
I'm still your everything
And things will turn out all right
That this fight will end
Tonight
In the dark
Where danger lurks
Where everything does
Or doesn't work
~ Maggie Lee
the ashes of what used to be emotion
fade to shattered molecules of numbness
Why did I say that?
Am I so far gone
That I don't know it's wrong?
Do I care
That I'm leaving?
Everyday it seems
Is filled with the leaves,
Falling from the branches,
Or fluttering on the breeze.
If only I were
One of those.
To dip and twirl,
To spin and plunge.
To float down the stream,
Till the wind is gone.
Then I'd return to my life,
Just in time for more pain.
Waiting and praying
For the wind to come back
And cause me more freedom
Than ever I'd asked.
~ Maggie Lee
I can't begin
To comprehend
Why I am yelling
From within
This hole is being dug
Ever deeper
Why don't you just lay me in the casket
And seal it shut
I bid the dark
Come in
Will you be
My only friend
Can you take away my pain
Can you save my life again
I just want to go home
And escape from within
~ Maggie Lee
Sunrise, sunset.
Look down, not up.
Always with fear, from
Violence found here.
Every word we speak or breath we take,
Returns the pain. We aren't the same.
But what if you were the slave,
And I was the master?
Then who'd bear the whip?
And who would scream faster?
~ Maggie Lee
You took it all and threw it down
Into the abyss
And watched it drown
Sinking
Ever deeper
Falling
Ever steeper
What once was there
Is shattered
Gone
And so fades
The unsung song
~ Maggie Lee
You tell me
To listen
Then yell
When I do
I don't know
What to say
I'm so
Through
With you
You scratch
And you tear
So violent
I'm scared
You batter
And bruise
Blood streaks
My hair
Sobbing
While running
Trapped
In this life
Broken
Unspoken
Just hand me
The knife
I'd use it
On you
But
I still care
Even if
You don't too
~ Maggie Lee
Alone
In silence
Alone
In pain
Alone
By myself
Just
Alone
Again
I don't want to stay
With you
Alone
You've scarred me
Marred me
Killed my soul
I used to be
Gold
But then the
Sun
Rose
You used to be
Free
But now
You're like
Me
~ Maggie Lee
Where did it come from?
This continuous
Darkness.
I'm drowning in tears,
Cowering in fear.
Failed to do what I should,
Defeated by
The greater good.
End the pain,
Now.
Just shout,
Shout,
Let it all out.
Sinking further
Into the dark.
Leaving my breath
Behind.
Going out
Of this wasted mind.
You wanted the truth,
Well here it is:
I'd leave you
ALL,
To go back to them.
~ Maggie Lee
How can they
Understand how I feel
It's different
But at least this is real
They'll never get it
Why I am this way
But a real friend
Won't care if I'm...
Whatever
Forget it
They don't care anyways
And if they're like me
They'll never betray
This gaping hole
That's ripping wider as we speak
Why do they all glare at me
I've done nothing wrong
Is it because of who I am
Or what I've become
~ Maggie Lee
I don't understand
Why they can't get
What I'm trying to say
Will light the long, winding way
That will give them the life
The encouragement and strife
It'll guide them
All the way through
Don't be afraid
And though I can't stay
To explain to the day
By the end of your time
You'll lead them through
The entire way
~ Maggie Lee
It slowly consumes you
Dragging you down
Through the air
Beneath the ground
Escape is impossible
It grips you with claws
Has fangs which it bears
You try to resist
But it's been to long
Struggling, fighting
Overwhelmed with despair
Slowly the will to fight
Evaporates to the air
Fall into it's clutches
It's release is so sweet
So this is what
Is known as
Sleep
~ Maggie Lee
It's so loud,
But I can only survive
With silence,
Crystal, pure and perfect.
Shrouded in darkness,
And clad in decay.
Why am I so happy
Living in this gruesome way?
It's disturbing and thrilling.
What else to say?
Besides the fact that I think
It's perfect in every way.
What am I saying?
This sounds so insane.
Then again,
This is coming from
Someone that doesn't even know
Their own name.
~ Maggie Lee
In an anarchy
Unable to comprehend
The calamity unfolding before them
Dissension fills the streets
People conspire to take back what is rightfully theirs
But this image is simply assimilated
Along with all things Bizarre
Imminent and meticulous
Shackled and arraigned
Interrogation makes you lionized
If only for one short night
Weeks and months elapse
Bitter cold and sweltering heat
Are joined in harmony
All things impossible
Are happening
Time has no meaning
In this place where
We are all the same
~ Maggie Lee
Why did you leave me
Here all alone?
My tears had been shed,
And your doubts had been shown,
But that was no reason
To leave me alone.
You swore and you screamed,
And didn't once stop to think,
What would happen to me.
The lights are turned out,
And the flames they are black.
But still I beg
For you to come back.
You know I'm afraid.
But inside I know,
Even if paid,
You wouldn't come back.
So I'll sit here alone,
And you'll never know,
If I stayed here and mourned,
Or left and went home.
~ Maggie Lee
Open your wrists,
I'll let you bleed on me.
This was over from the start.
You've seen my life,
It's filled with misery.
Why are you killing me?
I used to love you,
But that phase has passed.
Don't make me start again.
You took my soul,
And I don't want it back.
It's filthy anyways.
Must you insist
On always beating me?
I can't take it anymore.
I can't take it anymore.
So why don't you leave this place,
And let me live for once?
I can't take it anymore.
I won't take it anymore.
~ Maggie Lee
I look, full of longing
At the surface
Grey and cruel
Full of horror
But not without grace
Glare at it
Kick it away
Come home from school
Pick it up
Why?
Slowly I realize
Slowly I cry
I run from it
But it's still trapped inside
No way to run
I don't even try
~ Maggie Lee
It builds
And it builds
Every night
Until there's only one way to stop
Glance across
No, it's not right
But I'm drawn to it
Hold it longingly
Stroke its side
Waiting, waiting to die
I keep saying no
But I can't help myself
I want to be dead
Forget all the consequences
Just cock it, pull it
Goodbye
~ Maggie Lee
Audaciously waiting
For someone to come
Confiscate the wind from the Earth
And from the sky, the Sun
Conscientious movements
Then from behind comes a whisper
"But wait" It says
"Don't turn around"
So with no inkling of what's going on
And serene even though the mutiny's far from gone
Unable to depict for the stars up above
You embark on your journey
But soon turn around
Lackadaisical hope
Torn from the ground
Pilfer it again and yet still
There's still a profusion
Of men at the wheel
Slovenly organized
And rankled at fear
For, at last,
It is here
~ Maggie Lee
What they offer
I know I can't take
But I long for it
The second I wake
They won't take me in
No matter what I do
So I've lost who I am
And blamed it on you
What I did,
It was wrong
Now I now that it's true
The first time and last
They say that the past
Is over with
Done
Yet it still Kills us each day
Then takes us away
So I guess what I'm trying to say
Is I'm sorry
It's true
I hate what I've done
Not to me but to you
So please forgive me
For ruining you
~ Maggie Lee
Thinking of what
Will never be mine
I remember her laugh
Remember her shine
I looked away
And when I looked back
She was gone
So that's what I am
A lost little swan
Sitting surrounded by leaves
That fall day by day
Until that last ones fall
And I go away
Then there they are
Searching for me
The pull away the leaves one by one
But when they finally are done
All they find is a hole
And there's nothing there
~ Maggie Lee
Here on this bench
The center of all
I scan the Earth
Although I'm so small
I can make all the difference
So if I sit and do nothing
The great Earth will fall
But only if
I do nothing at all
So I stand and I walk
Then I spring through the leaves
I laugh and do back flips
On branches
Of trees
Then take wing and fly
Through the crystal clear sky
I dip and twirl
Ride the wind
A life line
This life is a mural
And to think of it gone...
I can't bear the thought
So instead watch the swans
~ Maggie Lee
In a room filled with people
But I'm all alone
With no one to guide me
Or to share how I feel
The spiraling darkness
One great abyss
Spiraling downwards
Towards nothing
But this
A small spark of light floods the floor
Then the abyss is back
And it's dark once more
~ Maggie Lee
What have you done
With your life?
Where have you gone,
Where did you hide?
Why did you run?
You didn't even try
To find what was
Right before your very eyes.
Or maybe
You just weren't ready
To let go of it all.
The big,
And the small.
So you could be free
To do as you wish,
Even if it's not right.
But then,
At least,
There might be
A fight.
~ Maggie Lee
The glint of sunshine
Off raindrops
Off dew
The giggling laughter
Of shadows
Of you
Care free and happy
Yet tethered in place
The beat of a heart
That won't again race
They reach out from beyond
To say they're okay
But we don't hear
The words they say
We sit there and morn
But that's not what they want
They miss the joy in our hearts
And the smiles we've worn
The dimness of days
The tears bar the way
All leading back
To that one dreadful day
No escape from the past
No way to see what's ahead
But that's alright
It's okay
Only one thing to say
Open the gates
And seize the day
~ Maggie Lee
You think things change
Just because I saw
The awful things she does
But they don't
So stop your begs
Your whining
Your pleas
The don't matter at all
You don't matter to me
The lies the won't leave
They've become the shadows
Of the leaves
Swirling on the wind
Shredding in the eaves
Whispering their fears
Trying to contain
All the betrayal
The hatred
The pain
The game of destruction
That is what you became
A white ray of burning emotion
In the space between insane and insecure
Where nothing feels good
And everything hurts
Nothing feels this kind of way
Life turns to dust on the wind
Then that's it
It's over
The one chance
That will
Never
Come again
~ Maggie Lee
In the dark
And the cold
Above the Earth
In solitude
Forming slowly
Not yet complete
A gallant beauty
Of which no words can emulate
Magic in motion
A breathless scene
The world pauses
With avid attention
As with the sun it meets
But the cause of the spark
The conciseness of its glory
Is also its reason of succumbing
The abrasion is slow
And a clad in sadness
The chance to endeavor
Is derived
It's gone
Anonymous to the excruciating recurrence
A spontaneous extrication
Imperative to the tears
It would have become
But evoking the strength to carry on
Out of the sun
And into the clouds
This time it's forming
But not all alone
Now it's done
It's ready, complete
It falls from the sky
And I watch as it snows
~Maggie Lee
Fathomless beauty
And grace unending
What's normal for them
Is amazing for us
Delicate footsteps
In the sand of the stage
Silent Applause
For a performance well made
The performer just stands there
And then bolts away
Reclaiming the stage
That very same day
They wait for the signal
Then pave the way
Fly through the air
Again and once more
Reaching the end
The lights flicker out
One by one
Until the show is done
And the performer gone
~ Maggie Lee
pain flaming up
writhing inside
try to escape
but my arms they are tied
try to cry out
but i have been gagged
spidery fingers
disappear to a bag
blood
hot
stinging
non-existent
call
to the edge
one step is all
it would take
and oh how
easily
we all
break
~ Maggie Lee
If you don't look
You will see
Every bad memory
Surrounding me
A billowing cloak
Of satin
Or woven of
The finest silk
To dismember the images
And create the illusion
Of dazzling beauty
But it's really soaked in treachery
And dripping with
The silent screams
The begging
And pleas
The wanting
And needing
Waiting patiently
For it to leave
~ Maggie Lee
Just when it starts to come back it’s destroyed and
You just get so mad
That your vision tints red
And all you can do is scream
Your pain to the heavens
That watch and mock
Your sorrow and
Make it rain on your perfect day
The creators of all
And the saviors of men
Will start to laugh
And might not stop again
They scream with their laughter
You scream with your pain
There’s no one to
Save you
From what is already done
There’s no way to land
On top of the sun
Your protectors
The angels
That will never exist
Just mock and laugh
And say
Look at this
It’s a sad little human
That’s feeling their pain
Isn’t it fun
To watch them die
In the rain?
So lets come tomorrow
And the day after that
We can laugh loud
Through the skies
It rings loud and pure
As we follow our rule
Of live and let kill
So as they laugh
And throw jokes
As you wither away
Just remember the feeling
For when they feel pain
Then they will scream
As you laugh with joy
As they break down
And perish
As you play with your toy
Remember this lesson
For in time you will hear
The laughter is building
To more than can bear
~ Maggie Lee
This spiraling abyss
It's black as night
But still I wish
To end my life
To slash my wrists
And watch the blood pour
Pooling in my hands
Before splattering the floor
Blood does drip
From my wrists
On to my face
So now I realize
That my life is such a waste
And that is why
It ends tonight
There's only one thing on my mind
That could end my pain tonight
I think only of it now
Suicide
I don't care if it hurts you
You've hurt me even more
When I'm gone
I now you'll cry
But there's only one
I wish I didn't have to hurt tonight
This time
When I say goodbye
It will be the last time
That's the last thing I'll do
Is say goodbye
To you
Then I'll leave this place
Finally free
Looking up at you
I don't know what to do
Struggling not to cry
I quickly say goodbye
Running blindly
Tears spilling from my eyes
I hope to hear you call me back
To have you drag me from the shadows
And bring me back to light
My life has ended
My breath is gone
Your soul is empty
Because of me
And what I've done
~ Maggie Lee
Pain
Sorrow
These are the things I feel
Tears
Unstopping
Tears of pain
Tears of fear
Tears that come from my heart
And pour from my soul
They'll never stop
But this I know
I hate it here
Why can't you see?
I want my friends back
I want them back Please!
Though I won't admit for them to hear
I hate them all
And don't like it here
Don't make me stay where I am unwanted
By them and by me
Inside and out
I cry tears each day
Tears of sorrow
Tears of pain
Barbed wire kisses
Ripping apart our love
Screams of hatred
Filling the air above
The shattered, non repairable things
Why are there so many things
We didn't say?
Walk along this empty path
Stop by your front door
You live alone
No need to be afraid
Ring the bell
There's no one there
Try the door
Open it and just stare
The floor is covered with your life
It's dripping through the air
Can't stifle the cry
Wrists turned to ribbons
Now there's no point
Left for living
Find the knife
The one that's sharpest and no longer shines
The one that took you life
And therefore mine.
~ Maggie Lee
I miss the way you'd make me smile.
When you were there I was happy,
Even if just for a little while.
I could come to you
With tears flowing freely
Or wrists stained red with blood,
And you would just hold me tight
You'd make everything all right.
And when I'd say "I want to die"
You would just look at me.
Sometimes you would cry.
But, when it was the last time came,
You said "Don't do that, If you do,
It will rip open every scar
From every vein.
We won't survive like this.
Never leave this world for me.
Just always remember,
I am only a memory."
And then you disappeared
In to the night.
And left me alone.
Which is how I'll stay...
Until after I am even just dirt and bone.
