                                              First two written because the Phantom of the Opera really inspires me, and I love it. The third, written because of the song Trade Mistakes by Panic! At The Disco, and that's one of my favorite songs. And the third written during my mission trip and not exactly finished, but soon to be. Read on!

                          ===============================================================================

                          Love takes form in many things
                          And mine is music,
                          Sweet as honey
                          And the feelings that it brings.
                          I compose at night and sleep at day
                          To bring this all to you
                          But when betayal is your repay
                          I have to start anew.
                          Music is sweetest when at night
                          When everyone cares to hear
                          But when they see the morning light,
                          They're quick to disappear.
                          So many things I want to say
                          Are stopped with wanton words.
                          They're put off for another day
                          Like one of your wild birds.
                          I know that you're still there
                          And it rips my soul to shreds.
                          It's like a breath of foul air
                          When I think of us in seperate beds.
                          I may never sleep tonight
                          Though dreams beckon me close
                          In the stars' and moon's great light
                          My mistakes float free and loose.
                          She covered her arms in scrawling ink
                          And pretended she didn't care
                          About the world she had to live in
                          Or anyone anywhere.
                          She thought she wasn't loved
                          Which her father reassured
                          She turned away from heaven above
                          As well was the underworld.
                          Scars criscrossed her arms
                          And she struggled not to cry
                          "Doesn't anyone love me?"
                          She cried out to the sky
                          He found a world of pain
                          In faces he adored
                          No matter the hurt that he alone faced
                          Everywhere he was scorned.
                          He lived a life of perfect ease
                          Until angry words were said
                          He fell and cried on his knees
                          Until they made amends.
