I have nothing to fear of exposure
Never pretend to be what I am not
I laid my heart out at your feet
And your venom in return I got
If admitting I was hurt is drama
Then a drama queen I may so be
But at least I know with out doubt
My faith was misplaced with thee

~Tarnished Silver~
You once said that I was gold
Tarnished silver was my reply
But precious none the less
You once told me you believed in me
You made me believe in myself
Then something drastic changed
And I let myself get consumed
In an endless cavern of emotion
Where no light was within sight
And I stayed there far too long
Crying in despair in the darkness
So cold and alone in that place
Suddenly feeling less then precious
No longer believing in myself
No longer believing in your words
Then I remembered who I am
The wanderer, adventurer, warrior
This cavern was not my world
Just another place for me to explore
In my journey back to myself
And I walked out of the cave
And into the bright sunlight
I learned that no shadow can exist
Where there is not a source of light
I learned that my own shadows
Only exist because I am light
May not be gold but still precious
I am not broken, I am whole
I may have some tarnish but I shine

Such a cute little creature
It does not even bite
And if you try to catch it
It wont even try to fight
Stare at her bright color
Red is a pleasing sight
Little wings unknowing
That she should take flight
Crawling upon your hand
Trusting she is alright
Slowly closing your hand
Fun to crush her, right?

ok, so I must retreat
fine so be it
saved tonight
that wont always happen
must be better gaurded
never ever give anyone
too much power over me
never again!
taken back now
what is mine is mine
i walk alone as usual
made my peace
made my amends
