  • To Be Honest

    Without warning, I went black

    That lasted over a week

    Not a word of condemnation when I came back

    I wonder if you know what that means

    When I do that, it’s never planned

    Life gets overwhelming, enough so that it’s hard to withstand

     

    To be honest, I don’t know how long it’s been

    We started talking through that dumb secret app

    Texting consistently, you’re actually my best friend

    Mostly sending tiktoks or pictures of my cat

    It’s not always super deep

    But it’s everything I need

     

    Your daughter is amazing

    I know you know that

    She’s going to follow her dreams

    It’s from you that she learned that

    It’s a second-hand love I have for her

    But it’s real, of that I’m sure

     

    Never doubt I love you dearly

    Even when I go dark

    I know you’re always going to hear me

    From the beginning, we had a spark

    Friendship may be all it is right now

    But to be honest, friendship is all I really know about

     

    Thank you for being who you are

    Always there even from afar

    It’s taken way too long for me to do this

    I’ve written many different ideas that were barely about you

    So finally, I found words that actually fit

    Doing this is a personal thing, but I still share with you

  • Love Clown

    You were like a drug

    No one knew about us

    I fancied myself in love

    Never let myself see it wasn’t enough 

    I forgot about you

    Even though back then 

    I thought I was in love with you

    Your name is in my everyday

    But when I hear it

    I don’t see your face 

    I wonder if you remember me

    I’m sure you thought I was easy 

    Nothing about what we did was good

    I think I did it because I could

    All it was was hook ups

    Across the street

    In your truck

    I’m sure you were using me

    As I was an emotional wreck 

    And you just up and left each time

    Years later I tried to keep in touch

    You gave excuses, never replied

    I was hopeful, probably too much

    I let you let me down

    I thought the past could return

    I’ve always been a love clown

    I’m now forgetting the things

    That drew me to you

    I really had gone a little mad

    Wanting what the rest of the world had

    Single and older, I’m writing this

    Ignorance is really bliss

    I can see manipulation easier now

    I wonder why I remember you somehow

  • Home (Your Arms)

    I wish you’d see that

    I’d do anything

    To make you smile now

    To be in your arms again

    It’s not easy

    Not being with you

    I’ve loved you so many years now

    You caught me when I fell down

    I’m showing off 

    To all of the world

    That I am your girl

    At home in your arms 

    You want me to know that

    You really love me, yeah

    I, oh, I 

    I really need you home, you see

    It’s not easy

    Not being with you

    I’ve loved you so many years now

    You caught me when I fell down

    I’m showing off 

    To all of the world

    That I am your girl

    At home in your arms 

    You walk into the room

    And my eyes lock on you

    Everyone else is suddenly gone

    You pull me into your arms 

    And I know

    I’m finally home

    I’ve loved you so many years now

    You caught me when I fell down

    I’m showing off 

    To all of the world

    That I am your girl

    At home in your arms

    This is a song I’ve written. There is music to this, but I’m not sure I’m brave enough to share the video I’ve posted (unlisted) on YouTube. Let me know if you’d like me too? (Keep in mind, it was recorded over ten years ago.)

  • Confidence

    I’m not a size zero

    I can’t throw it back

    I’m definitely not a hero

    And I’m okay with that

    For the first time I didn’t do my face

    Held up my phone

    My smile in place

    As the flash glowed 

    I had never felt so naked

    Laid everything out bare

    I was only without makeup

    But I used to wear it everywhere 

    There’s a freedom to this 

    Not being worried about my skin

    My body’s not perfect

    But I’m building confidence

    Things don’t fall into black and white 

    There are a million shades of grey

    So what seems to you as the only right

    Can be seen by someone else a different way

    I’m learning my limits

    I’m not letting you be the one to push them

    If you say something about me

    I’m ignoring you

    I’m learning to be happy

    You should be too
