Happy Valentine's DayJack POVMore Like This
It was dark out, being the early morning and the sun not yet rising. I floated in front of the bedroom window. Quietly, I unlocked and opened it, slipping inside and closing the window behind me.
Lydia’s room was quiet, and cased in shadows, dimly lit by a small, orange, star-shaped plug-in nightlight. I had noticed it a little over a month so it was pretty new to her room. I had figured she had gotten it due to the encounter with Pitch; she never said it, but I could tell she was afraid of the shadows more than she had been before meeting the nightmare king herself. I smiled a bit, remembering questioning her about it. Her response had been priceless. It was a few weeks ago when I brought it up in conversation.
-FLASHBACK-
She was sitting at her desk working on her homework. Who knew teachers gave so much classwork nowadays. She had her back facing me while I sat on her bed. I glanced over at the nightligh

Your SmileYou don't have to...More Like This
And I won't force you to..
But I just like it..
...when you smile
I won't demand you to...
I won't slap it on you...
But when you do...
...my life is more worth living...
I will help you...
Understand you...
And try to...
...make you smile
I don't want you to feel what I feel
I don't want you to be sad one bit
No one should suffer the pain I'm suffering
Not even for a little bit..
...all you gotta do is smile...

Billowing breezeShe flutters, towards a bud,More Like This
Her glorious black locks, sashay in the breeze
Color dusted butterflies, struggle to ensnare her beauty
Her emerald eyes, glossy and wild,
Mirrors the sacrilegious past, which burns upon her lips
As she sees Dawn's vivacious red rose fingers,
Fountains of frothing blood, flood her mind
The trembling of white jasmine petals
Remind her of the trembling of her own soul.
Alas, cold memories, the eye of the storm
Gripped her hardened, bleeding heart
Her thoughts, billows like lost balloons,
They flutter into the swirling midnight haze
But, Lo! The Wind embraces her in his ethereal wings,
Shaking, stirring

Learning To Love AgainHe whispers to me.More Like This
Leave me alone...
He runs his hands through my hair as he stares into my eyes.
Stop touching me. Stop looking at me that way.
I feel his lips upon mine and my eyes flutter shut.
Stop toying with me. We both know you don't mean it.
His body pressed unnaturally close to me and I feel the heat.
A still broken heart trying to fly...trying to fight.
I feel his hand brushing away tears of the past.
No. Don't do this to me. Don't make me believe...
"Please, darling, don't make me pay for their mistakes."
Just stop. Don't say the right thing at the right time.
He tells me he doesn't care how long he has to wait for me.

Healed By Your LoveBroken, my heart lied in shambles.More Like This
The pain I felt was too great to bear.
I turned to drugs to heal me,
But things don't work that way.
I started seeking to love another,
But it never really worked.
The love I found was cheap and fake.
It was never true at heart.
Then I gave it up to God,
And he tried me one last time.
I guess I must've passed his test,
'Cause then he brought you into my life.
You quickly healed my heart of pain.
I could lay the drugs aside.
Then I found I could love again,
Though this time isn't the same.
This time the love is stronger;
It is purer, and it is true.
The love I feel is better,
and I feel thi

My Broken Heart Will HealMore Like This
Its all over though I don\'t want it to be
It hurts so much but I must remain strong
Though I\'m completely crushed I must move on
And my broken heart will heal before long
I hear that one can learn to love again
I hear there are other \"fish in the sea\"
If you see me some day with someone else
Just know a part of you is still with me

A Poem For Those BrokenA Poem For Those BrokenMore Like This
Words that cut and kill a spirit
Words that hold and heal a shattered soul
Hands that beat, break skin, and murder identity
Hands that seal the wounds with love
A touch that erases the hurt of past shed blood
A bottle that consumes and drowns a life
A cup that brings forth life
A love given to you that cannot be broken
Nor taken from you
For those broken by separate spirits, wounded by the words, flesh broken by flesh .
For those broken down
Be built up
May The Spirit care for yours
May His voice bring forth peace .
May His hand heal the wounds

The Changes of a Heart...Life change people change,More Like This
Two hearts beat like one,
No pain is left behind but a smile on your face,
The future is what I think right now but the past is my life now,
I dont want death but life,
I learn time can heal a broken heart and that love can eased pain,
But no broken heart is healing without the pieces of another when that happens love comes to life.
