The essence of her...

Hey you! Remember me?

you were once the one who held the key.

‘and then you kicked me in the face

‘and laughed as i bled all over the place.

Now look at you 

and look at me.

Your tormented soul:

My tiny scraped knee.

~Written by Sarah English 2012

me singing “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Miserables 

you fooled me once, shame on me! I sealed me heart, threw out the key! you’re a shame! and you’re a liar! was gonna throw your ring into the fire… But you know me, I change my mind a hundred thousand million times! I sold that ring since you left me, now i’m going on a shopping spree!

My new cover. Me singing. Hope you like it!

To You, (I wrote this for a friend)

Stay shiny;

Stay true;

Love yourself’;

Be good to you.

‘and with all

The things you do,

Don’t forget

I’m here for you.

No matter what,

No matter how,

Keep up your game;

Show off your WOW!

Just recorded a new cover.

I’m singing a cover of Marry The Night

just me singing a song I wrote… hope you like it. 

My brain is leaking. 

I need a bandaid so I can go to bed.

“Never Catching”

this looking glass

she’s wearing thin

where tiny cracks

and lines begin.

like a cake

she follows through

the ingredients

she folds, and you

stomp, the top declines.

what’s once a glisten

no longer shines

deep in those mines.

down and through 

the rabbit hole

she digs deeper 

to the soul.

the years have blasted

and worn her knees

against this woman

who helps when she bleeds.

reaching but never catching;

believing but never fasting;

retrieving and never grasping;

the silent sound of clapping.

“The Opposite of Near”

why am i still waiting here

you’re the opposite of near.

somehow allow my heart to feel

what’s not concrete, is somehow real.

taken away by words of love

was afloat the dizzy sky above

until shot once again,

a broken glass knows not when

the tears can be replaced

to the eyes that cry

out in her dreams, let it not be passer-bye

the one she loves now makes her sigh.

great breath of relief he stole the stem

and all that grows here is for him

and nothing inside that tall hat

can take amends for all of that.

“You Are My Fountain”

you are my fountain

i drink away pain.

without my dosage

i will go insane.

flowing words of kindness

reaching all of my limbs.

without all this love

my worlds light would dim.

the bleak can be brightened

with one gentle kiss.

with all of your heart

i am within bliss. <3 Written by Sarah English 2012

me singing…. just uploaded this to youtube. Do you like it? xx

“Papillon”

weeping little papillon

come and go.

and then falls rain.

the air pressure will sustain

her tiny wings.

and she will not fall

despite the things

being thrown from below.

oh she hates the ground, so

she flutters and 

above the clouds she does go.

“Changed Direction”

looking through the lies,

i can see through your disguise.

i know all your secrets of your soul;

deceit will never make you whole.

a hundred times you bruised my flesh,

i hid the wounds with pounds of mesh.

now i make eye contact with you,

after all the torment you put me through.

you’re not winning this game

i’ve changed the direction of the pain.
