Angels
Found this song a few days ago and I really like the lyrics. They definitely say exactly what my heart has been screaming lately...

“Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-

"In the theatre we play. That's why we call them 'plays', right? We're playing together. That's a sweet and gentle way of saying it. Except it's very real. It's grown-up play. And that's how we stay in touch with the child within us." ~ Chita Rivera, excerpt from the book 'The Alchemy of Theatre'

People do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a wild thing, and you're terrified somebody's going to stick you in a cage. Well, baby, you're already in that cage, you built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land, it's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself." ~ Paul Varjak, "Breakfast At Tiffany's"

"She's delusional, sir." - Me, as Captain Solomina. (there's a funny story behind this quote LOL)

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak for me." ~ Pastor Martin Niemöller, a victim of the Nazi regime during Hitler's reign
As many men as there are in the world,

and can play the harp with his hands,
he has the gift of his music which God has given him. ~ Gnomic verse from the Exeter Book
“Well is it for him who seeks mercy, comfort from the Father in heaven, where for us all security stands.” ~ from "The Wanderer"
Flower in the crannied wall,

Little flower-- but IF I could understand
What you are, root and all, and all in all,
I should know what God and man is. ~ "Flower in the Crannied Wall" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson
The year's at the spring
And day's at the noon;

All's right with the world! ~ from "Pippa Passes" by Robert Browning

Confessions of a 'Wicked' Girl
Sometimes I wish I was a kid again... A scrapped knee is a lot easier to fix than a broken heart.
Life was easier when boys had cooties.
It's much easier to fake a smile than to explain what you really feel inside.
Sometimes music is all you need.
Music is the only thing that makes sense.
Don't fall in love. Fall off a bridge. It hurts less.
Music is my escape; from all the lies, all the drama, all the confusion, and all the hurt. Music is my escape from reality.
A real girl isn't perfect, and a perfect girl isn't real.
I never stop thinking about you.
I still can't shake that feeling of wanting nothing but you.
I'm wanted by many, taken by none, looking at some, but waiting for one.
I'm not afraid to love, I'm afraid of not being loved back.
I'm only me when I'm with you.
They say you don't know what you have until it's gone. Truth is, you knew what you had... you just didn't think you would ever lose it.
Tears are words too painful for a broken heart to speak.
I may not be perfect, but I'm always me.
I believe in using songs to say things.
I don't fall in love easily, but when I do, I fall hard and I fall fast. So if you're not planning on catching me, don't make me fall for you.
I'm a lover, not a fighter, but I will fight for who and what I love.
"I'm strong, but I break. I'm stubborn, and I make plenty of mistakes. Yeah I'm hard, and life with me is never easy to figure out, to love, I'm jaded but oh so lovely... I'm confusing as hell. I'm north and south. And I'll probably never have it all figured out... " (lyrics from "Maybe" by Kelly Clarkson)
I love the rain. It's calming, soothing and makes me feel very content and at peace.
I love the woods. It's where I go for peace and quiet, to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and to distract myself from the chaos and confusion of humanity.
I tend to get along better with animals than I do people. People are judgmental, and animals will love you unconditionally. People hurt you, but animals have no end to their love. If you're looking for true love, look in the eyes of a dog or cat.
I don't believe that "true love" exists anymore. "True love" is unconditional; no limits, no bounds, no restrictions. Humans are not capable of loving someone unconditionally. Everyone has limits on their love for others. The limits will vary from person to person, but there are still limits. It may take a lot to reach beyond the limits of someone's love, but the limits are still there, and once you cross those limits, that person will not be able to love you anymore. They cannot and they will not love you beyond their limitations. That is why I don't believe that "true love" exists.
I bottle up my emotions and problems. I don't open up verbally to a lot of people, which is why it's far easier for me to write about my problems and emotions than it is for me to verbally communicate them.
There are few people who I feel I can actually trust.
I still have trouble trying to be friends with my first ex, Mark. Travis, however, I have no problem being friends with. Mostly, I think it's because I was completely devastated when Mark broke up with me; he was my first boyfriend, my first love, my first kiss. He meant everything to me. When Travis and I broke up, I was hurt but I knew that I would have to be okay with him, because I would be seeing him five days week at school, so I knew that I would have to get over him. Mark was, and still is, a different story.
Truth is: you're the reason I don't believe in love anymore.
My biggest mistake wasn't falling for you. It was thinking you had fallen for me too.
In the end, it all comes down to the fact that I care too much, and you didn't care enough.
I am not a backup plan, and I definitely not a second choice.
Your worst battle is between what you know and how you feel.
"It seems every time I find a good man, he's got a good little wife! I'm not jealous, but I won't lie, I don't wanna hear about your wonderful life!" (lyrics from "How I Feel" by Kelly Clarkson)
Sometimes I really wish I was a kid again, back in the days when: boys had cooties, you got "drunk" off of Capri Sun and Kool-Aid, you didn't care about watching your figure, working out was playing outside in the backyard all day long, and the only drama you had to deal with was if someone stole your crayons. I miss being a kid.
They say that Disney World is the happiest place on earth. Obviously, they've never been in your arms.
Life was easier when boys had cooties.
It's much easier to fake a smile than to explain what you really feel inside.
Sometimes music is all you need.
Music is the only thing that makes sense.
Don't fall in love. Fall off a bridge. It hurts less.
Music is my escape; from all the lies, all the drama, all the confusion, and all the hurt. Music is my escape from reality.
A real girl isn't perfect, and a perfect girl isn't real.
I never stop thinking about you.
I still can't shake that feeling of wanting nothing but you.
I'm wanted by many, taken by none, looking at some, but waiting for one.
I'm not afraid to love, I'm afraid of not being loved back.
I'm only me when I'm with you.
They say you don't know what you have until it's gone. Truth is, you knew what you had... you just didn't think you would ever lose it.
Tears are words too painful for a broken heart to speak.
I may not be perfect, but I'm always me.
I believe in using songs to say things.
I don't fall in love easily, but when I do, I fall hard and I fall fast. So if you're not planning on catching me, don't make me fall for you.
I'm a lover, not a fighter, but I will fight for who and what I love.
"I'm strong, but I break. I'm stubborn, and I make plenty of mistakes. Yeah I'm hard, and life with me is never easy to figure out, to love, I'm jaded but oh so lovely... I'm confusing as hell. I'm north and south. And I'll probably never have it all figured out... " (lyrics from "Maybe" by Kelly Clarkson)
I love the rain. It's calming, soothing and makes me feel very content and at peace.
I love the woods. It's where I go for peace and quiet, to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and to distract myself from the chaos and confusion of humanity.
I tend to get along better with animals than I do people. People are judgmental, and animals will love you unconditionally. People hurt you, but animals have no end to their love. If you're looking for true love, look in the eyes of a dog or cat.
I don't believe that "true love" exists anymore. "True love" is unconditional; no limits, no bounds, no restrictions. Humans are not capable of loving someone unconditionally. Everyone has limits on their love for others. The limits will vary from person to person, but there are still limits. It may take a lot to reach beyond the limits of someone's love, but the limits are still there, and once you cross those limits, that person will not be able to love you anymore. They cannot and they will not love you beyond their limitations. That is why I don't believe that "true love" exists.
I bottle up my emotions and problems. I don't open up verbally to a lot of people, which is why it's far easier for me to write about my problems and emotions than it is for me to verbally communicate them.
There are few people who I feel I can actually trust.
I still have trouble trying to be friends with my first ex, Mark. Travis, however, I have no problem being friends with. Mostly, I think it's because I was completely devastated when Mark broke up with me; he was my first boyfriend, my first love, my first kiss. He meant everything to me. When Travis and I broke up, I was hurt but I knew that I would have to be okay with him, because I would be seeing him five days week at school, so I knew that I would have to get over him. Mark was, and still is, a different story.
Truth is: you're the reason I don't believe in love anymore.
My biggest mistake wasn't falling for you. It was thinking you had fallen for me too.
In the end, it all comes down to the fact that I care too much, and you didn't care enough.
I am not a backup plan, and I definitely not a second choice.
Your worst battle is between what you know and how you feel.
"It seems every time I find a good man, he's got a good little wife! I'm not jealous, but I won't lie, I don't wanna hear about your wonderful life!" (lyrics from "How I Feel" by Kelly Clarkson)
Sometimes I really wish I was a kid again, back in the days when: boys had cooties, you got "drunk" off of Capri Sun and Kool-Aid, you didn't care about watching your figure, working out was playing outside in the backyard all day long, and the only drama you had to deal with was if someone stole your crayons. I miss being a kid.
They say that Disney World is the happiest place on earth. Obviously, they've never been in your arms.

In Loving Memory of Caylee Marie Anthony
I'm sure by now, wherever you are, you've heard about Cayse Anthony, the woman who murdered her two year old daughter, Caylee Anthony. For more information, see this link
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caylee_Anthony
In loving memory of Caylee Anthony, someone wrote this poem (don't know who the author is, this apparently has been floating around the Internet.) Anyway, today is the day Cayse Anthony was released from prison. May the bitch burn in Hell.
In Loving Memory of Caylee Marie Anthony.
Bella Vita
I see what's going on down there
Safe within my Father's care.
I never knew that there could be
So much love on Earth for me.
I'm THANKFUL that the TRUTH revealed
All the lies my Mom concealed.
And though it seems like justice failed
In the end, it will prevail.
When she stands before HIS throne
with no defense and all alone
her life will play for all to see
the fate she chose for her AND ME.
And he will say "I saw it ALL
The tape, the trunk, the trash, the call
the smiles you hid, the tears you faked
I watched it all, there's no mistake.
I gave you life, I gave you breath
and you repaid my love with death.
And after that, twelve let you live
A life that you refused to give
your daughter on that fateful day
You tossed her precious life away.
Now you stand asking for grace
but I don't recognize your face.
You chose your path
You chose your way
You had your fun
It's time to pay.
So down you go
Into the deep
down where your soul
will never sleep
and always hear the voices of
the lives you shattered up above."
So go on Mommy, laugh and smile
live your life just for awhile.
Tell the world you're innocent
and make believe that you repent.
Make your money, have your fame
Refuse to hang your head in shame.
But here is what the world will see
when they look back in history:
The murderer who got away
who sold her soul to hell one day.
The pain you put your family through
Because all you ever loved was YOU.
God won't let me be replaced
And everyday you'll see my face
Your Bella Vita's dead, you see
Her name was CAYLEE ANTHONY!
Caylee Anthony: Gone but Never Forgotten. RIP sweet angel.
