			<title>The Moral</title>
			<description>I am not the girl men fall irrevocably in love with.I am temporary.I am the girl life brings you when you've forgotten how to love, to remind you and show you, you deserve to be loved unconditionally and without reservation.And once that lesson is learned, you will break my heart and go ..</description>

			<title>Not Okay</title>
			<description>I came to you with bags in tow and begged you to tell me to stay, but you just opened the door for me, and so I walked away.But I never wanted us to end up where we are. From lovers to strangers once again it seems we were never destined for the stars.Time it moves so slowly, especially at n..</description>

			<title>Too sleep deprived to think of one </title>
			<description>The end of us came and went, but here I sit still stuck in descent.Falling and spiraling, I've lost my mind, don't know how to stop this decline.The voices surround me, back once more ever since you walked out that door.Was any of it ever true? Or was my time just wasted on you?Four ..</description>

			<title>Your Girl</title>
			<description>To feel your touch, to taste your kiss,To be wrapped in your arms in immeasurable bliss.To look in your eyes and see them starting back,The bright of your aura lighting up the black.A feeling I thought I'd never feel again,I can't stop you from becoming my favorite sin.When you say you love me, my h..</description>

			<title>An Ode To Jim Williams</title>
			<description>So Intertwined right from the start, not by blood, but definitely by heart.Like a shadow I followed right behind, step by step completely spell-bind.Your little buddy, your pocket-helper, still too young for all the helter-skelter.With my wooden tools you made me I was a pint-sized handyman: a real ..</description>

			<title>Let Go</title>
			<description>We run down the sidewalk, hand on my backDaddy let go, and I zoom down the tarmac.A few years later and I'm in a huff,&quot;You don't understand!&quot; I shout in rebuff.&quot;Daddy, I love him.&quot; and your face goes grim.&quot;You're too young for love, you don't know what it is.&quot;I'm 18 now and we stand in an empty room..</description>

Where am I going?I need some guidanc..</description>

			<description>I don't usually do this.I'm not the outgoing type.I'm most comfortable sitting alone&amp;nbsp;in my room losing myself in my tripe.But with one look at you&amp;nbsp;I'm somebody new,And I'm lost in the complexity of your hue.</description>

It's what I do best.Don't know why I'm surprised, I really should have guessed.Of course, you're with her, why wouldn't you be?You're a catch, it's not hard for anyone to see.And she's pretty, so pretty, I bet she's funny too.And the way you look at her, she mirrors back at you..</description>
