2006 was a defining year
A time of both laughter and tears
Regret and joy, happiness and pain
Some days with tears falling like rain
April 2, My very first "I love you"
May 18, my first boyfriend true
June 17, my first kiss on the cheek
That day in campmeeting down by the creek
June and July full of relationship trials
So seperated by all those miles
Not only Adrian, but Danae too
When she decided to go to Andrews
August came and August went
And off to school I was sent
New girl Tesha, my first roommate
To that girl, I did all less than hate
September brought another girl
This one meant to me the world
After not too long she was my best friend
I thought that that would never end
But then in December our friends wanted a change
So then roommate's we exchanged
Now me and her have grown apart
This is too much for my fragile heart
Lemme back up to October
When I went down to Benton Harbor
I saw Danae and hung out with Adrian
But all too soon it was back to school again
November was already here
It's almost time to end our year
Banquet was gorgeous (^.- so was I)
I had a great time, I won't lie
Now December had finally come
Our green Christmas was kinda a bum
But we had a great time anyway
I got my new MP4 player that day!
December 31 came with a wave of emotion
It was like someone had given me potion
I thought over all of 2006
Some of it made me sick
I told you of all the good things
Of kisses, hugs, and fake gold rings
But there's also bad things in my story
Of endless regret, hopelessness, worry
My life is perfect as many seem to think
What I hide is the missing link
The missing link to my depression
The reason my happiness is seeming to lessen
See I have things I hide from all
Though on the outside I pretend to stand tall
On the inside I'm an innocent child
Tired and soft, meek and mild
Maybe that's why 2007 for me
Is nothing but fear as I can see
I'm afraid I will be figured out
The hidden person I've started to doubt
So I'm not looking forward to 2007
It's not gonna be a perfect heaven
In fact, it'll more than likely be hell
As far as I can tell
But I'll still keep hidden this little girl
Closed tight like a beautiful pearl
Cause the one thing more hellish that I can see
Is letting them get to know the real, true me
**Just a little side note, I was right, 2007 has about 3,000 more downfalls.
