I HAVE FLOWERS UNDER THE RAIN
BY: CHRISTI-ANN TONEL ESPINOLA

I AM BEAUTY
I AM PAIN

I AM A PARADOX
I AM GAIN

I FEEL FREE
I FEEL TAMED

I AM EMBARRASSMENT
AND PRIDE

I AM JOYFUL
AND SAD

TO ME EVERYTHING
IS A BIT ODD

I HAVE DREAMS
AND NIGHTMARES

CASCADES OF GLORY
AND SHADOWS OF DOUBTS

I HAVE WORTH
AND I AM NONE

WHICH MAKES LIFE
A BIT FUN

I AM EASY
I AM HARD

I AM SHATTERED
BY THOSE COLD-HEART

I LIKE TO DANCE
TO A SONG

TO REMIND ME
I AM STRONG.

BREAK
By: Christi- Ann Tonel Espinola


i silently kill the time i have left
the time i have to ponder

most days i feel neglect
but it doesn't seem to matter

i caked my face with a smile
to show that i am happy

but the longer i do it
the more i hate it

the longer i keep it
the more difficult to shake it

i wish you were here
to see me cry real tears

i wish you were here
to see me filled with fears

i have these regrets from my past
how i wish i could tell you

but somehow you're so distant
how i wish i could hold you

so time is all i have
to think about what really matters.

time. that's all i have
as i silently kill what's left of it.
