Strength can be a weakness
Weakness can be a strength
Strength can make you feel like everyone loves you
When in all reality everyone hates you
Weakness is the time where you
Can’t do it right
Can’t say it right
Can’t live right
And everybody hates you
When in reality
You did the best
Came out on top
And made some new friends along the way
But here is something you need
The person who thinks everybody loves them
Dies empty
While the ones who ‘couldn’t do it right’
Have a nice house, car, and a loving family
The first and last letters make the word ‘be’
You know what it is
A funny thing called balance
And I have yet to find somebody who’s mastered it
You need both to be truly happy
Snowflakes
We have meltdowns
We are beautiful
We are imperfect
We are one of a kind
We grow and develop
We rise and fall with our conditions
We get imitated
We were meant to join with others
We are snowflakes
Snowflakes are humans
Humans are snowflakes
We are the same
Rage
Rage is a battle
Between what you ought to do
And what is right
Rage is a fire
Burning inside
And out
Rage is possessive
Over your body
Controlling your thoughts
Your sight
Your difference between right and wrong
Is muted as rage comes through the door
Then it laughs as the war wages with no direction
Rage is petty,but bold
I wish…
Rage…
Was (not)…
Wrong…
Shoes!
Shoes, shoes, what to do? …High heels, boots? What to do… Sneakers? Red? Blue? What to do…I know! Flip flops! No wait, converse! What to do…Fluffy? Uncomfortable? Fancy? What to do… Oh! I know! Mix match? Yes… That will work! But which two shoes- (sigh). What to do… What to do.
Colors
There are colors in the sky
There are colors in a restaurant
There are colors in the road
There are colors in paintings
There are colors in a rainbow
There are colors in a classroom
There are colors in a store
There are colors in our earth
There are colors in trees
There are colors everywhere
Fluffy Puppies
They are soft like a cloud
But they are sometimes loud
They can be good or bad
If you give them food they will be glad
They can be annoying
But they’re not boring
Bees
We need to go to bed
Nothing’s popping in my head
Buildings, trees
Who can tell the difference?
They both have bees
My sister has a sleep mask
She ran into the street fast
We tried to tell her
But we just couldn’t get her
Popcorn at the Paramount
Popcorn pops at the Paramount
So buttery
And sometimes so caramely
I wish I could eat it
Every day
But my parents would say
No way
It’s more buttery
Than sugary
But it’s ok
It makes my tongue
Fizzle
I like it anyway
Recess
Recess recess recess
It’s when I get to play
It’s what I’m talking about
It’s what I’m gonna say
It’s fun when you get your sillies out
And you can also play
Recess ‘round the playground
Is sure to make your day
It’s really fun to do it
I try to every day.
The End
As the world crashes down around my feet
I sit in the suffocating destruction of a thousand years
Judged by human standards for one last time
Content to let angels and demons tear my soul apart
I count the seconds by each living cell unmade
And together the world and I crash down
