The Heartbreaking Lesson

As the amazing fireworks blast way up in the sky a little boy tries to light one inside.
The ambulance comes with a blaring horn
The parents are safe but the boy is torn.
Two months later a five year olds funeral begins as the little boy plays way up in the sky
The parents are somber but the tears start to dry
Because they know you can’t be harmed up way in the sky
Now they know to leave lighters way up high and make sure kids light them outside.

Paradise

Paradise
Picture the Ocean
Large
Blue
Breezy
Salty
Fresh
Water

Not knowing what is in the Fresh Water

Millions and Millions of gallons
Of Paradise Water

Is the ocean full of DREAMS?

Is the ocean filled with MONSTERS?
Waiting…
Lerking…

Who knows
What could be in the ocean
Our imagination
That’s what

The only thing we can do is to
EXPLORE
DREAM
AND

I m A g I n E
Of what paradise could contain

Oh the Ocean
Oh paradise tell me what you contain

Who

Her memories go to her heart

And her feelings to her mind

She can’t stop thinking all the time

Eyes famished and glistening

You can see by the look in her face

Her reality is different; she’s in a different place

Not somewhere you could walk

It’s too far away

And there she’ll remain

Wish her luck

Heat

Six people in a room sitting
Heat
The middle of the room was burning down quietly
Two people fled
Three on their phone
One person reading a book
Fire consumes the furniture
One more person flees
Three people sitting in a room

Water

Water: Elliot Bochey

Dark, heavy, and wavy, but darkness falls
Showing all creatures

Salty but tasteless and many
Many miles of it

There is
Also another form
Clear, cold, and pure

Both ways
Are considered dihydrogen monoxide: water

Christmas

Christmas
The snow falls on the leafless tree
The lights on the neighbor’s house is the prettiest sight to see
The hot cocoa and marshmallows add the feeling of delight
The star on the tree never has shined so bright
The family spends time making treats
Every threat is made so sweet
The presents make me smile
I’ve been waiting awhile
A holiday I wouldn’t pass
Christmas

A child’s cry to their mother.
When is daddy coming home?
Never the mom replies holding back tears.
He chose to shut that door long ago.

A child’s cry to their father.
When is momma coming home?
Never the father says through clenched teeth.
She couldn’t put down the needle.
The drugs shut the door for her.

Shutting, shutting, shutting doors
BAM.
Another tear cried.
Another child abandoned.
