My Unicorn

My little Unicorn
Always on my side,

I always want her to be there,
Because then together we can glide.

She’s always sparkling,
Always in my heart,
We will always be together,
Because she’s sweet like a tart.

So loyal!
So kind!
She’s special like no other.
No one can replace her.
No one can be the same as my little Unicorn.

Love

Love is Love!
Love is like a dove in the air.
You can’t live without Love because then you will only hate.
Don’t you think Love is important?
You know you just can’t change Love.
It’s just Love that’s just important.
Love is not that complicated you know.
Love is just Love!
If you would Love who would you Love?
Why would you Love?
Who would you Love?

Life

When someone dies, my heart rings,
I wish I could spread my wings
To the place wehre the angels sing
But I can’t – it’s a part of life

We sing and dance as we begin anew
Skip in the grass and run in it too
But it’s the sad parts that make us blue
Death is real-it’s a part of life

We wish to see them, visit them, we long.
But they can be remembered in celebration, or song,
In other words, their spirits live on
In our hearts – it’s a part of life

Shopping Actions

If you love shopping,
you should probably be girl.
But if you are a boy like me,
you might like to stay at home
except when buying something
you really want.
Also when we are tired,
You might want to take some
time relaxing like sloths
like they do on branches,
then do some homework,
If you have any.

Thrill of the Game

Cold steel in my hands
A sword? A gun? A shield? A key?
I have no idea.
I walk through valley,
Scale mountains and hills,
Ford great rivers,
As I head to Venus–
I will rule it all.

In this new land,
I run from the guards,
I trip, stumble, fall right down
And everything goes dark.
I fly through space
As stars explode
And I watch in awe.
I recklessly crash my ship.
I am stuck in the sky,
The stars are my home now.

I wander in the dark,
Behind me a thump
And I run fearfully,
Footsteps close behind,
It seems that I’m the prey.
I turn to face
The thing scaring me to death,
But it was never there,
Not really,
Yet a prick on my neck,
My hairs stand on the edge,
And the life drains my face.

Game over.
Game over.
Game over.

As a Female

As a female, I have a certain amount of strength.
As a female, I run a certain way.
As a female, I am shorter than most males.
As a female, I wear makeup.
As a female, I can’t “throw.”
As a female, I have more weaknesses, they say.
As a female, the women before me couldn’t vote.
As a female, I am dependent.
But that’s okay because
As a female, I am also independent.
As a female, I am also proud.
As a female, I am also really strong.
As a female, I am also as smart as any man.
As a female, I am also more mature.
As a female, I am also athletic.
As a female, I can hold a plank for two minutes straight.
As a female, I have also marched, used my female voice.
As a female, I am also a friend.
As a female, I am amazing.

The Fist of Happiness

Feeling empty inside
The fist of happiness wants the sadness back
For the first time in a long time
The fist needed balance to be fine

You need darkness to see the light
And with the lack of light, there is darkness
With the feeling of sorrow
The fist’s whole existence is complete.

The sadness brings a thousand emotions
Which brings the fist new memories
The memories he needs to feel alive
Like fear, anger, joy and love.
