Life is not a straight path
Within moments everything can change
Within a conversation
Within a glance
Within the choice to speak or remain silent
Your path will follow those actions
Without your control
You have to accept it
We have to see
That every decision we make
Leads us to our destiny
Nyx
I have found a love
That I thought I would never find
In a land where I am yours
And you are forever mine
In your eye’s I see
This beautiful destiny
Staring at each other
So complete we are
The scars slowly fade
As we lay forever in the shade
Of each other’s love
In this world of dream’s, we have made
Nyx
Life is an endless array of obstacles
This I know is true
All I do is bear it and keep going
All I do is hope I make it through
These obstacles block the way home
They make me crawl inside myself
Longing to be alone
I always see them coming
These obstacles you see
I brace myself hoping I am wrong
Then I realize I cannot change what is coming
It is my destiny
My fate
There is nothing I can do
It is always too late
It seems some things have been decided
But maybe this is untrue
All I can do is keep moving forward
Hoping I make it back to you
Nyx
I have been brought into moments of complete despair
But this is how I find my strength
This is how I find hope
I have embarked on a journey
Each stride a lesson to be learned
Each breath drawn is another that I live
Each day I am given a gift
Something that is taught to me
Something that I can give
My purpose is to educate
Those who are unaware
Of everyone in need of love
Of everyone in need of care
Someday I will fulfill this purpose
This I know is true
Because I am still standing here
Writing these lines to you
Nyx
With the ups and downs I see
Hills and mountains laid out before me
Here and there I find a path
Here and there I find a stream
Every now and then a valley
Like a story book from a dream
I cherish these moments
They are rare
When I suffer I take myself there
To my valley
By the stream
Where the grass is high
Where the water is blue
In this place I feel
Like I am home
In this place I feel
That there is nothing
That I cannot overcome
Nyx
Sometimes I think that I am beaten
Sometimes I think that I am done
That is when I stop and remember
Everything that you have done
These actions drive me forward
These memories that you made
You were the one I trusted
My life was in your hands
Everything I did to make you proud of me
Everything I did I wanted you to see
I was your daughter
I was the one you were supposed to protect
Instead all you did was lie to me
Confuse me with truths mixed with lies
Until all I wanted was to escape you
Everything I have done
Is a result of what you did
Everything I do
Is a fight to beat you
You are the reason I am who I am
Yet you are the reason I still breathe
You are the reason I stand
Well dear father someday you will see
What you created
What you made
Someday you will see
That you will never beat me
I may be bruised
My bones may break
I may wake up everyday and suffer
From eternal heartache
But when all is lost I see what you have done
This is what drives me forward
This is what makes me carry on
I will fight for those born to suffer
What you have put me through
I will fight through the pain
I will fight because I have no choice
There was no turning back when I broke the silence
There was no turning back when I used my voice
Nyx
In this life so much is uncertain
So much is unseen
There is so much doubt
One thing I do know
Is that love is real
I know it when I look in your eyes
I know it when I hear your voice
I know it when I feel myself
Being pulled toward you with a force I can not stop
A force I can not control
A force so strong that nothing can keep me from you
There is no doubt
There is no fear
There is only love
Love that I know will only continue to grow
Night after night
Year after year
When my heart races I know yours does the same
When I am in pain I hear you scream my name
Because you are my other half
The other side of my soul
Now I know what it feels like to be whole
Now I know what it feels like to have no doubt or fear
Because I have found you my love
Because I have found you my dear
I will hold your hand in mine as we walk together this way
Together we step in sync as we say goodbye to yesterday
Nyx
You are in the center of the storm
Grip the ledge and hold on
It’s not over yet
Do not give up
But do not hold your breath
Just keep fighting
And you will see
This is your fate
This is your destiny
Nyx
Sometimes I can not help but wonder
Do I have a guide
Is there someone always there
Showing me the way
With the right words to say
Whispering in my ear
Telling me there is nothing to fear
Well if I do have a guide I am grateful
Maybe that is how I have come this far
Maybe that is how I have made my choices
Trusting in the unknown
Knowing that my instincts have shown
Everything I have needed to see
Which path to take
Which hand to hold
If you are there my guide
If you have led me this way
Then you saved me today
If you have led me this way
You freed me from it all
If you are there my guide
Thank you for catching me before I fall
Please stay in my heart
Please guide me through
These vines and thorns that prick me
That will someday lead me to you
Nyx
