One Love

/

I loved you in a Winter’s dream.
I loved you in a Summer’s fire.
You loved me when the leaves fell.
You fulfilled my one heart’s desire.

The flowers bloomed,
And moons had passed.
We built our foundation,
On memories to last.

We’ve made it through some darkness.
We’ve seen the infectious light.
Our bond will continue to grow,
Through every day and night.

Out of all the people of the universe,
Watched from the stars above,
They found you and placed you next to me,
My one and only true love.

Life of a Beauty Queen

/
image

Fake Smile, Fake Hair.
What does she find when she stares?
Stares into the mirror.

She puts on a show,
Because that’s all she knows.
Pretending is so natural.

Oh Beauty Queen!
You look so preen!
Its far from the truth,
But are you willing to reveal?

You can only hide so much,
Before despair comes for you.
Crawl out of your hole,
Or it’ll be too late.

She’s waiting,
Waiting for an escape.
Will her saviour come?

Will she run?
Or will she stay?
She never wanted in on this life.

Oh Beauty Queen!
You look so preen!
Its far from the truth
But are you willing to reveal?


Strip away the perfect world
All that’s left is the lonely doll.
She just wants to live vicariously.


She doesn’t care for the glamour.
She does care for the pain.
She needs to fill this emptiness.


There is no worth in the money.
There is no worth in the fame.
Will she survive it much longer?

Oh Beauty Queen!
You look so preen!
Its far from the truth
But are you willing to reveal?

The magnitude of fear is too heightened.
She needs to learn her own strength.
There needs to be faith.

Only her and her alone can make this change.
She’ll need to take the big leap.
It’s the only way…. To be the person she wants to be.
