A trophy is there to be seen, not heard,
It sits there and smiles, without saying a word,
The trophy is there, just in sight,
It's kept in its place, both day and night,
It matters not, ow it feels,
No one knows, just what it conceals,
It has no say, it does as its told,
It knows not why its under control,
It is there for its master's pleasure,
It is now and forever, it's master's treasure,
One in a million, is what they say,
One in a million, that's what you pay,
A million nights, that you can't sleep,
A million days, that you weep,
Things start to blur, as time moves on,
Things start to change, before your even gone,
Your the only one that can see,
Your the only one that pays the fee,
How easy it is, to be blind,
How easy it is, to loose the time
When your the one who is,
One in a million...
To hope, or to dream,
It is all a lie, or so it would seem,
Each day I wake, each step I take,
It matters not, the move I make,
In this, my gilded cage I stay,
My fear is strong, so here I lay,
I look around, and I ponder my fate,
How much is chance, how much are my mistakes,
It maters not what I wear in this place,
I no longer have a mask to hide my face,
My soul is bear, its open to share,
I feel it all, it all seems so unfair,
How did I come to be here,
In a place I can no longer bear,
I see the key that I need,
The key that would let me free,
The key that is just out of reach,
One step more, to cross the breach,
Am i truly as alone as I f
Here I sit in my gilded cage,
The one I made with my choices, my mistakes,
Each bar one by one, firmly put into place
Over time, and in no definite place,
By my hand they all went in,
Me not knowing I sat within,
I wear a smile on my face,
No one knows, not even a trace,
The pain within me hides,
From the look of prying eyes,
Good I have become at this game,
Of hiding it all, hiding the pain
In silence I sit, in silence I walk,
S much to say, and no way to talk,
In my cage I start to weep,
While dark thoughts continue to creep,
Shadows of doubt cloud my mind,
Fear of the unknown, fear of the time,
Scared I sit afraid to move
Yet frightened o
What's the point in having hope when hope is always fleeting,
What's the point in standing up when you can no longer take the beating,
What's the point in being strong when your strength is always fading,
What's the point in holding back when no one will hear your screaming,
Whats the point in going on just so you can see the morning..
To watch the lights as they shine
to know your always that much behind
to have a need you cant complete
to struggle just to get on your feet
to be so close yet so far away
to always curse the light of day
to wish you knew just what to say
to smile and no and pretend its okay
why do things always seem to go this way
why can't hope bring in the new day

A breath away from tears
A second away from eternity
A scream away from insanity
A minute that seems to last forever
A heart that longs for understanding
A moment in silence
A breath away from tears
A time that stands still
A feeling of helplessness
A night of confusion
A need to be held
A moment in silence
Happiness is in a childs smile
Serenity is in the still water of a lake
Tranquility is in the gentle rain
Contentment is in the silence of the wind
Sorrow is in a mothers tear
Heartache is in the wake of a storm
Despair is in a flash of lighting
Anguish is in the boom of thunder
Hope is found in loving arms
Faith is in the silver lining of a cloud
Dreams are in a rainbow after the storm
Change is in you
I have found myself in the mood to write some more, I may also play with some images but I feel like I need an outlet again. I look forward to reconnecting with everyone as my journey continues...
Ok, so it's been like forever since I have written anything on here, and even longer since I last added any work of any kind. So a quick update, when we last left our intrepid hero... she was unemployed, going though a tough time and barely keeping her head above water....now almost a year later *drum roll* She has been working a pretty good job, things are not quite as tense, but still some rough patches to work though, so all in all things are much better, and hopefully will be posting new work soon.
Hope the rest of you are doing well.
Ok, well no longer working, trying to find a job, kids are doing great, and things are just crazy right now, I am really hoping things will settle down after Christmas, until then I guess I will be going in fast forward lol.
