The Life of Raina Gray In a Nut Shell.

ahauntingpast1017 asked: When the hell are you going to come back to coastal? I miss you :(

I miss youuu! I wanna visit soo bad, but it’s hard to get down there :(

He speaks in falsehood.

His words are like daggers

from websters dictionary

so eloquent yet distructive

I tell him the truth

I tell him don’t think

Don’t say what you don’t mean

Don’t write the words of envy 

planted in my screen

The past you cannot change 

your words are there forever

to make false accusations 

is just a way to sever

My ego, my heart

who you were at the start

Stop.

You silly boy.

He speaks in words of confusion 

they are wise, yet untrue

So hurry along

you lost boy

wour words will catch up with you.

Raina E. Gray

Though we are not blood, 

I think of you as my guardian.

Though we often disagree, 

I still love you in the end

You have given me guadience

You have given me care

you have made my life better

and you have always been there.

Don’t let the title fool you

by no means does it describe

the person you’ve been 

throughout my life.

I could never forget the nights you tucked me in bed

“I wuv woo,” like scooby doo said.

Don’t forget me, as I won’t forget you

stay close to me, as i’ll think always of you

Our bond is much strong than “my father’s wife”

You are a mother to me for the rest of my life.

No matter what happens between you and my father

I. will be. your child. 

j-r-morgan asked: Hey! I appreciate you sharing your tastes with me:) I actually downloaded some random songs by The Avett Brothers and one of their songs actually inspired me to write something. I am almost done editing it but I will point out which piece it is at the bottom! Any other suggestions in music? I'm always looking for different sounds of inspiration :)

Yay! I’m so glad it inspired you! Is love to know the song and read what you wrote. Another good singer if you like the avett bros would be Justin townes Earle. I recommend Christ church women or who am I to say. Great songs. And I am the same way. If you stumble upon any new artists let me know (:

A cigarette in hand

love in heart

beauty in mind

and so we start

which glove is the perfect fit

which hand holds it hardest

which pencil to lend 

to the world’s famous artist 

when do we stop

when the timer starts

when the clicking begins

when the ball is dropped

what shall it come to

this love we endeavored

will it perish right now

or live on forever

to let it all go and keep calm through it all

would take vegetation and a bottle of raw

but to handle the issues at hand and succeed 

i must find what this means to me

Some things are said from one party and another

others give space and stay undercover

but its time to grow up

make these decisions alone

find truth in the lies 

and bury the stone

if love is kind

then light be dim

for benevolence shown

every once and again

innocence washed 

away by the tide

genuine love 

will somewhere hide

in the depths of the ocean 

in the shore of the land

immersed in the golden 

grains of sand

within my heart

lay my greatest fault

desire and passion 

never come to a halt

though untruth be noxious

and my chastity severed

i have suffered it all

for the love I endeavor

such a difficult task

to meet the same perspective

too much or too little

such specifics expected

unsteadily living

kind and forgiving

neglect; insincerity 

is all i am getting

but waves will crash 

upon the land

and uncover the truth

hidden under the sand

the sorrow will fade; 

bliss falls from above

drowning forever in wondrous love

tumblrbot asked: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE INANIMATE OBJECT?

A pencil. You can draw, write, and throw them at people you don’t like. (:

What we had was a ride in the car

a trip to somewhere far away

we let the wind blow through our hair

and didnt care what they would say

but the first night was sickening 

and the next morning was a dream

our own private beach 

aside the anchor, you and me.

a picture can say more than you

but which to believe, i didnt know

the look in your eyes was more than true

but who could believe all the lies

the guard, on leave, reality was seen

the real you exposed and left in the green

who could’ve known all you needed was me

I couldn’t be strong passed the tide of the sea 

it was you, it was me, it was a love unseen

we were stubborn, we were harsh, we let love be

we made it to the marsh, but refrained from the sea

cos our innocence would yield in exchange for the free

but our bond grew strong and we were so naive 

the ground often flooding and we refused to believe

you’d never give me up but I never could hold on

I needed so much more and your strength so often gone

for no more reason than misunderstanding

a failure between two minds

but awaken every nervous track 

and fill this soul of mine

releasing every inhibition and any sign of fear

i walked across the fire for you

though the coals would cruelly sear

all for you I strengthened myself

burning, yearning, spurning the truth 

all for you I battered myself 

but faking was breaking my industrious youth 

She’s tattered and broken.

But she has never misspoken.

Along the path she dug the ditches

and covered herself in lesions

She tries to hide and cover the stitches 

to find she has no reason

Temptation she cannot fight

Mistakes - she cant do what’s right

She found an escape

but the choices she made

put her back on the road she had traveled

It continues to wind and she continues to follow

trying to withstand the harsh wids that will blow

stormy weather seems to stay wherever she goes

just as she starts

to see a light through the clouds

expressing her joy through thoughts aloud

the rut in the ground,

she fell and she sunk

while she was not looking down

floundering as she tries to come to a stand

her feet have submerged

her body is week

her lips start to quiver 

as she tries to speak

a word or a prayer 

is her strongest endeavor

but every passing calamity

has left her broken forever
