[b]What is Love[/b]
[spoiler]Is it the journey to discover bliss
With someone who takes the time
To walk slow and cherish every kiss
Is it this struggle called life
And knowing they are by your side
Holding your hand through all the strife
Is it healing the broken
A melding of heart and of soul
Present even when left unspoken
Or is it just an endless pursuit
Searching for someone, for something
Yet knowing deep down, you'll never taste the fruit[/spoiler]

[b]Lost[/b]
[spoiler]I'm walking around an empty shell
Of the person I was before
You gave me back what I once had
But I'm not that person anymore
Every song that comes on the radio
Tells the story of you and me
What we had, what could have been
And what now will never be
The bond we had was deep
But the hurt is just too strong
I want so bad to fix it all
And get back where we belong
Losing you means I've lost everything
My hope left with my best friend
There's no fire left in my soul
I just want this emptiness to end[/spoiler]
[b]Looking Back[/b]
[spoiler]Looking back I see a girl
Full of life and innocence
A tiny being in a limitless world
Filled with such a pure essence
Looking back I see a shadow
The memories are distorted
But in my dreams it's crystal clear
Those crimes stay unreported
Looking back I see a girl
Trying to move passed the past
Growing, changing, ever healing
Ignoring the questions left unasked
Looking back I see a shadow
Alone, abandoned and betrayed
Lost in a world she wasn't expecting
Surrounded by pain she cannot evade
Looking back I see a girl
Chasing a glimmer of hope
Finally finding herself deep inside
And finally able to cope
Looking back I see a shadow
Fragments of what used to be
Was that the final chance she'd get?
She'll have to wait to see

Meh. I prefer short stories from Shakespeare or Edgar Allen Poe
