Poetrics: Never Alone

“Never Alone” by Lady Antebellum

–

Surround yourself with happiness

As much as you can

Live life like it’s an adventure

You don’t always need a plan

May the angels protect you

Trouble neglect you

–

Don’t bear Life’s burdens alone

You can lean on me

I will wrap you in my love

And help you carry

My love will follow you, stay with you

–

Let nothing come between us

As years pass by

If you forget how to dream

I will sing you a lullaby

I’ll be in every beat of your heart

When you face the unknown

–

Don’t be afraid to lose me

You never will

I will be forever by your side

Even when my heart stands still

When your fears surround you

Wrap my love around you

–

And even when we’re not together

I carry you in my heart

So, remember, you’re not alone

We will never truly be apart

Baby, you’re never alone

Lullaby – Nickelback

 –

Well, I know the feeling

You think that you’ll go insane

When your world is crashing down

And everything seems in vain

Hanging on the edge, trying not to fall

 –

I’m reaching out

You don’t have to fight alone

When you want to give up

And you are chilled to the bone

Just breathe and give me a call

 –

Let my heartbeat be your guideline

I’m telling you that, it’s never that bad

 –

If you can hear me now

Surrounded by the chaos of your mind

When you lose all control

And the darkness makes you blind

I will try to break through your wall

 –

So just close your eyes

Listen to my words, their melody

As long as your heart beats, there’s hope

In you darkest hour, you’ll have me

Take a chance, no matter how small

 –

Let my heartbeat be your lullaby

Please let me take you

Out of the darkness and into the light

Throwback Thursday: In the Shadows

On ‘Throwback Thursdays’ I want to share some older Poems and post of mine. I hope you will enjoy!

Note: The lyrics always stay the property of the band or artist who wrote them. All the credit goes to them. Lyrics of In the Shadows are in blue, my poetry is written in black.

Part of the lyrics of In the Shadows by The Rasmus

They say

That I must learn to kill before I can feel safe

But I

I rather kill myself then turn into their slave

Sometimes
I feel that I should go and play with the thunder

Somehow

I just don’t wanna stay and wait for a wonder

I’ve been watching

I’ve been waiting

In the shadows all my time

I’ve been searching

I’ve been living

For tomorrows all my life

Lately I been walking, walking in circles, watching waiting for something

Feel me touch me heal me, come take me higher

Hope you enjoyed it! 🙂

Lots of Love,

Strange Sight by KT Tunstall

 

Wearing a mask pretending not to care

Protecting yourself like you always do

But burdens are lighter when you share

So I will keep reaching out to you

Lost in the darkness

You will be found

If you hear my voice

Follow the sound

 

The darkness has lured you in

You have lost all faith long ago

But each day is a new begin

If you find a path to follow

Strange how your dark doesn’t faze me

No, I won’t give up on you

 

Life has brought too much pain to cope

You sealed your heart away

But there is always hope

I promise that I’ll stay

Let me help, let’s begin

Let me learn

Won’t you let me in?

 

The days have betrayed you

You prefer the calm of the night

But every morning you can start anew

If you open up to the light

Do you long to be left all alone?

Set apart with a heart made of stone?

 

Betrayal has made you lose faith

You’re blind to love, you can’t see

But I know it’s never too late

Just try to give your trust to me

There’s a light that you shine

There’s a love, I see it in your eyes

All the dark, let it go

You’re not alone…

Part of the lyrics of ‘Bitch’ by Meredith Brooks

I hate the world today

You’re so good to me

I know but I can’t change

Tried to tell you but you look at me like maybe I’m an angel underneath

Innocent and sweet

Yesterday I cried

You must have been relieved to see the softer side

I can understand how you’d be so confused,

I don’t envy you

I’m a little bit of everything all rolled into one

I’m a bitch

I’m a lover

I’m a child

I’m a mother

I’m a sinner

I’m a saint

I do not feel ashamed

I’m your hell

I’m your dream

I’m nothing in between

You know you wouldn’t want it any other way

So take me as I am

This may mean you’ll have to be a stronger man

Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous

And I’m going to extremes

Tomorrow I will change and today won’t mean a thing

I’m a bitch
I’m a tease

I’m a Goddess on my knees

When you hurt

When you suffer

I’m your angel undercover

I’ve been numb

I’m revived

Can’t say I’m not alive

You know I wouldn’t want it any other way

Lots of Love,

Patty

Part of the lyrics of ‘You are not Alone’ by Michael Jackson

Another day has gone
I’m still all alone
How could this be
You’re not here with me
You never said goodbye
Someone tell me why
Did you have to go
And leave my world so cold

Everyday I sit and ask myself
How did love slip away
Something whispers in my ear and says
That you are not alone
I am here with you
Though you’re far away
I am here to stay

But you are not alone
I am here with you
Though we’re far apart
You’re always in my heart
But you are not alone

For you are not alone…
Not alone ohh
You are not alone
You are not alone
Say it again
You are not alone
You are not alone
Not alone, Not alone

Lots of Love,

Patty

A Poetrics for today: Somewhere

I actually had forgotten about this song a bit until a friend sent it to me.

The lyrics of ‘Somewhere’ by Within Temptation

–

Lost in the darkness, hoping for a sign

Instead there is only silence

can’t you hear my screams?

Never stop hoping, need to know where you are

But one thing is for sure

you’re always in my heart

–

I’ll find you somewhere

I’ll keep on trying until my dying day

I just need to know whatever has happened

The truth will free my soul

–

Lost in the darkness, try to find your way home

I want to embrace you and never let you go

Almost hope you’re in heaven so no one can hurt your soul

Living in agony ’cause I just do not know where you are

–

I’ll find you somewhere

I’ll keep on trying until my dying day

I just need to know whatever has happened

The truth will free my soul

–

Wherever you are, I won’t stop searching

Whatever it takes, I need to know

I’ll find you somewhere

I’ll keep on trying until my dying day

I just need to know whatever has happened

The truth will free my soul

–

Lots of Love,

Just Patty

Throwback Thursday: A Poetrics

On ‘Throwback Thursdays’ I want to share some older Poems and post of mine. I hope you will enjoy!

Today I want to share a Poetrics with you I wrote for my little brother a while ago.

Part of the lyrics of “I Won’t Give Up” by Jason Mraz

I don’t wanna be someone who walks away so easily

I’m here to stay and make the difference that I can make

Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use

The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake

And in the end, you’re still my friend at least we did intend

For us to work we didn’t break, we didn’t burn

We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in

I had to learn what I’ve got, and what I’m not, and who I am

I won’t give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I’m giving you all my love

I’m still looking up, still looking up.

 

Throwback Thursday: Poetrics ‘Sad but true’

On ‘Throwback Thursdays’ I want to share some older Poems and post of mine. I hope you will enjoy!

Today I want to share one a Poetrics with you I wrote a while ago.

(For my new followers who don’t have a clue what I am talking about when I use made-up words like ‘Poetrics‘, please take a look at THIS page.)

I really adore this song by Metallica. It describes exactly what happens when you let the dark take over to avoid the pain. Listening to this song has always made sure I didn’t lose the real me completely.

Hope you will enjoy it!

Lots of Love,

Patty

Part of the lyrics of ‘Sad But True’ by Metallica

Hey

I’m your life

I’m the one who takes you there

Hey

I’m your life

I’m the one who cares

They

They betray

I’m your only true friend now

They

They’ll betray

I’m forever there

I’m your dream, make you real

I’m your eyes when you must steal

I’m your pain when you can’t feel

Sad but true

 

You

You’re my mask

You’re my cover, my shelter

You

You’re my mask

You’re the one who’s blamed

Do

Do my work

Do my dirty work, scapegoat

Do

Do my deeds

For you’re the one who’s shamed

Hate
I’m your hate
I’m your hate when you want love

Pay
Pay the price
Pay for nothing’s fair

I’m your truth, telling lies
I’m your reason alibis
I’m inside, open your eyes
I’m you

Sad but true
