parting gift.

I opened my eyes while you were kissing me once
more than once...
You looked as sincere as a dog
just as sincere as a dog does,
when it's the food on your lips with

which

it's

in love...

I bet you could never tell
that I knew you didn't know me that well.
It is my fault you see, you never learned that much from me.

Oh, you, silly stupid past-time of mine,
you were always good for a rhyme,
and from the first to the last time,
the sign said

stop.

But we went on whole hearted
it ended bad, but I love what we started.

It said stop.

But we went on whole hearted
it ended bad, but I love what we started.

I took off my glasses while you were yelling at me once
more than once...
so as not to see you see me react.
Should have put em, should have put em on again,
so I could see you see me sincerely yelling back.

I bet your fortress fades,
beied your fort of lays.
It is by the grace of me, you never learned what I could see.

Oh, you, silly stupid past-time of mine,
you were always good for a rhyme
and from the first to all the last times,
all the signs said

stop.

But we went on whole hearted
it ended bad, but I love what we started.

It said stop.

But we went on whole hearted
it ended bad, but I love what we started.

#14.

Looking from the window above
It's like a story of love
Can you hear me?
Came back only yesterday
Movin' further away
Want you near me

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

Sometimes when I think of her name
When it's only a game
And I need you
Listen to the words that you say
It's getting harder to stay
When I need you

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

This is gonna take a long time
And I wonder what's mine
Can't take no more

Wonder if you'll understand
It's just the touch of your hand
Behind a closed door

All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Only you

chaos battling consistancy

i get you.
you get me.
oh well.
we can be best friends.

drink up baby
stay up all night
the things you could do
you wont but you might
the potential you'll be
that you'll never see
the promises you'll only make
drink up with me now
and forget all about
the pressure of days
and do what i say
and i'll make you okay
and drive them away
the images stuck in your head
the people you've been before
that you don't want 'round anymore
or that push and shove
and wont bend to your will
ill keep them still

drink up baby
look at the stars
i'll kiss you again
between the bars
where i'm seeing you there
with your hands in the air
you're waiting to finally be caught
drink up one more time
and i'll make you mine
i'll keep you apart
deep in my heart
separate than the rest
where i like you the best
and keep the things you forgot
the people you've been before
that you don't want 'round anymore
or that push and shove
and wont bend to your will
ill keep them still
the people you've been before
that you don't want 'round anymore
or that push and shove
and wont bend to your will
ill keep them still.

different state of mind

So until recently i never really knew what my true passion was in life. i mean, its not like you just know these things.. i wish thats how it worked. well, i dance. a lot. and i've just discovered what its like to really truly dance, and fall, and live. its thrilling really. i cant stress how grateful i am to be able to dance. it brings more joy to my heart then anything ever will be able to.

its a hard concept to explain, the feeling i get when i just go for it. its like there are no limits, theres just you and the floor. its the best feeling i've ever really expirienced. now that i'm at this age where i learn the extremities of my physical being and what i can do, im able to take advantage of this knowledge. now i know how to let go.

ive discovered how to live.

dear friend,

"music is worthless unless it can make a complete stranger breakdown and cry.."

Well, I know I'm no complete stranger, but everytime I hear the song, "Your Ghost", I shed a little tear for you. Not because I'm thinking that I'm never going to see you again. But it's more just remembering our time together this break. It's the feeling I get when I think about the next time I'll get to see you, and dance with you, and just talk about everything with you. When you leave you take a little piece of my heart with you, but thats a good thing because I know that I'll always get it back when I see you the next time. The missing piece of my heart simply reminds me of how much I love you. I was talking about how much I hate when people leave after visiting with a friend of mine, and she reminded me that it's not "saying goodbye" it's "until next time", which really turned my feelings around. So to end this I would like to thank you for how much inspiration, knowledge, love, and friendship you have provided me with. It really seems like we've been this close forever. You are the best mother/friend/dancer/teacher I could ask for. I love you so much!

Love,
your hannah

changed for the better

I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...

Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good



so i have this friend. she doesnt live here, but this song is made for us.
by the way, i miss you.

I fall, I fall, I faulter

Some people are very distracting...
and I really don't know what to do about it.



so let's face it, this was never what you wanted
but i know its fun to pretend
now blank stares and empty threats
are all i have, they're all i have

so drown me, and if you can
or we could just have a conversation.
and i fall, i fall, i faulter
but i'll find you, before i drift away..

now you still speak of day old hate
though your whole world has gone up into flames
and isnt it great to find that you're really worth nothing
and how safe it is to feel safe.

so drown me, and if you can
or we could just have a conversation.
and i fall, i fall, i faulter
but i'll find you, before i drift away..

the things we do just to stay alive
the things we do just to stay alive
the things we do just to stay alive
the things we do just to keep ourselves alive.
