Hope

It gets worse before it gets better
having hopeful days while living through teary nights
it gets colder before it gets warmer
the golden heart keeps shattering
the little sharp pieces piercing through the soul
it gets harder before it gets easier
the little heart aches and the unwanted heartbreaks
but we keep waiting for better days
I keep hoping you find reasons to live
I keep hoping you find more reasons to smile
dark or dull, I keep hoping you find what you are looking for
I keep hoping the sun shines on your favorite side
because it should get better,
it should be better for you

Tales of the Other Girl

I told tales of her; the girl who changed everything

I talked about her, wrote about her

I dazzled the world with artistic paintings of her

She was the ultimate gem

She was a rare perfection in a black and white world

I whispered to the gods; and she peeked

I could have sworn I saw the world sigh when she walked

She was uniquely built, with such divine outlay

She held such ingenuity the world adored the ubuquity

and when the rain stopped pouring

I chose the other girl

When the tales spread far and wide

I chose the other girl

When the gods leaned over and awaited

I chose the other girl

and the world paused

the rain stopped

the angels watched

and i rooted for the other girl
