Updates: Media (lyrics) has a new layout. I could never figure out how to lay it out, but it's easier to navigate now. I'm still working on a better duplicate Mamblog mod. I'm trying to make submittions easier but the poetry form died for some reason. Quizzes are also on their way from the old site. Joomla content isn't very code friendly so I'm having to rewrite old code. You can still click on News > AH v21 > Screen if you wish to use the quizzes.
His hands on my body
In places they shouldn't be
Blue and black smears
To keep me from running free.
Tears falling in silent protest
My body shaking in fear
Why can't I just wake up?
The worst part's growing near.
He enters my body with anger
With anger I can't understand,
Time stalls and then stretches
Then I feel his gripping hands.
When they soften I know it's over
Without strength I fall to the ground
He laughs as he walks away
With this new strength that he's found.
Another walks up in a protest
There's dirt on this ground where I sit
She's heartless and always uncaring
I should stop crying and get over it.
I emerge from sleep full of hatred
For the truth that my nightmares hold,
For the secrets I keep inside me,
And for the lies I've been told.
I no longer close my eyes long enough
To get lost in peaceless slumber
I refuse to fall victim to
This spell that I've fallen under.
Sadness, I know it well
It haunts me day to day
And I have this sick'ning, daunting fear
It'll never go away.
It hangs over me like storm clouds,
And when it rains it pours.
I crack and break with every step
Like rotting wooden floors.
I sit and wait for this to leave,
I wait all day and night,
But weeks will pass before I learn
To stand up and take flight.
My mind will waste, my heart grow weak
My wings will lose their strength,
The time it takes to ease this pain
Will increase in length.
I'll lose the hope I had before
I sat around to wait,
Fear will turn to anger
And anger to hate.
And those who tried to help me
Will no longer wish me well,
I'll lock myself away for good
In a make-shift prison cell.
The sentence, emotional death,
I'll lose my freedom to take a breath.
I'll never see another day
All because I lost my way.
So if you're sad and losing hope
Remember this advice,
Stand up at once and take control
And don't ever think twice.
Fortunes told and stray hearts
Always trying to play a part
A cracking mold, a light shines through
A welcomed chance to start anew
Freeing thoughts once locked away
Alive to serve another day
Afraid to cry a single tear
Pulling no one safely near
Days emerge as weeks and months
Ways to ease the pain just once
Flying free as two white doves
Emerge from darkness high above
Seldom glance at what was mine
Buying endless slots of time
