Tribute

Tribute
If I blink, I'd miss it
Six people reaching out in agony
Six people furiously slamming into the ground in spite and confusion
"There was smoke everywhere and people were jumping out!"
Five people plummetting to the ground...
One girl spinning, throwing herself to the floor
"And now for a moment of silence...Thank you."

Chapstick

Chapstick
Lip's Savior
Temporary relief from lip's agony
Cautious, staying away from warm places,
Worried of providing for no more pretty faces
Hiding in the pockets of those who use it
Blowing raspberries at it's only enemy:
Flavored Lip Gloss.
Chapstick, Lip's Best Friend
If used as directed...

Speak

Speak
The words that escape me
The ones that I'll never be able to say
They're locked inside without a key
With hope, the door might swing open someday

The ones I'll never be able to say
Forming on my lips oh so slowly
With hope, the door might swing open someday
I think that day is getting closer with anxiety

Forming on my lips oh so slowly
Those words are a whisper of what I really want to say
I think that day is getting closer with anxiety
These words, resting in my heart, will never go away

Those words are a whisper of what I really want to say
I open my mouth but nothing comes out, caught in a nightmare scream
These words, resting in my heart, will never go away
I'm screaming, I'm shouting, but no one hears the invisible me

I open my mouth, but nothing comes out, caught in a nightmare scream
They're locked inside without a key
I'm screaming, I'm shouting but no one hears the invisible me
The words that escape me
