Hey guys!!! I've been away from the forum for a LONG time! But I'm gonna try and be better about posting and replying now! For those of you I know, I look forward to hearing from you again, and for those of u who I don't know, I hope you like my work, and I look forward to reading yours  
K, here's my latest! Love ya all! ~Kandi~

Something Worth Believing In

Bend the heart until it breaks
Just to see how long it takes
Before a grip on the edge starts to give.
Not a single word is spoken
Don't let them know a heart is broken
Just pretend to love this life you live.
I'd offer a hand if I had one to spare
But mine are busy clutching at air
Desperately seeking something to pull me up.
All I need is someone to save me
To bring back the hope somebody once gave me
And I'm turning to you because I'm thinking you might be enough.

Don't turn away
I'm tired of screaming just to know somebody can hear me.
Say you'll stay
I can't keep dreaming that there's someone who wants to be near me.
Look at me
Just so I can feel like there's something beautiful about me again.
Believe in me
because I need to know there's still something worth believing in.

like this much. very well written. every word true. love your signature. what's the first one from? The second is from the song dying to be alive, right?

Don't wander throught this glassy surface, expecting to find more than me, because what I am without a purpose, but a lone mirage to see.
