"Come stand beside me" - Kennedy Ryan 

 

I've never seen this before,

Constantly beside me.

I've never wanted this more.

Come breathe life inside me.

 

His smile is fading here.

It tells me that it's over.

The death of all these years;

And I find you standing closer.

 

Time is not lost.

Time only stops.

I step out into the rain again.

 

Memories are tossed

All burdens been forgot

With you I have everything to gain.

 

Don't walk away

I have stopped running

There is so much to say

Just come stand beside me.

 

I won't walk away

Put your fears behind you.

Promise that you'll stay

And come stand beside me.

Poems

"My Mask" - Kennedy Ryan

 

All my fears and doubts 

You told me, "let it out".

But I wear a better mask than you.

 

You showed me who you are

Left flutters in my heart

Still I wear this mask for you.

 

Don't want you yet to see

This imperfect side of me. 

I show confidence to hide my fears.

 

You and I are the same

Playing this perfect little game. 

I turn my head to hide my tears.

 

I just wanted you to know

You are not truly ever alone

I really am just broken and unglued.

 

I will take off my mask

If you ever wanted to ask 

I want to show the real me to you.
