Earth so lush and green
Until man comes, careless we
Bring forth a wasteland

Continuously waiting for a message
Eventually, bzzz – bzzz – bzzz
Looking down quickly to see who it is
Look another status update
People’s lives are so wonderful, it must be great
Here I am just sitting alone and checking my phone
Outside my door, knock – knock – knock
Now who could that be I wonder to myself
Except I’ll never find out, I’m waiting for a message

Cool rain falls on me
The world feels a bit lighter
Rain cleanse my worries

I just want to write
Escape this blight, out of sight
A dream for tonight

Brisk early morning
Birds singing, serving up joy
An extra cup please

Life, so full of gifts
Make sure you never forget
Always cherish them

Life, dark and lonely
Wake up scared, feeling hopeless
Suddenly a light

The journey is so harsh and long
A test of your mind and might
A test you can not pass, if you think you’re always right
If you make it, you will be strong

Earning your place, you’ll now belong
You aced the test and put up a fight
From now on they will see your light
Immortal, they will sing your song

Immortal, you can do no wrong

Quietly you judge
From the corner over there
**** you stupid scale

Lessons always being learned
Ill prepared we begin this test
Failure at every turn
Experience our only guide

I get up from bed
Pause to look back at you sleep
Think, God, I’m lucky

Nature, Mother Earth
Always indulging us with all her worth
Take from her, we have no fear
Unheard cries we choose not to hear
Remorse we will soon come to know
Extinction we will soon come to sew

Take a puff, inhale
Poisoning my heart and mind
Your love will **** me

Looking at the sky
Crystal clear, peaceful and calm
The storm comes quickly

I can rhyme all day
Blow your mind, you don't even have to pay
Words hotter than a sun ray
Serve you like a hot lunch tray
To me, it's just child's play
Jaw dropped, not much to say
But haters will say I'm just okay
Eat them up like my prey
Make sure to keep them at bay
RIP here they lay
Angel of death, show my wings and fly away
Time to get on your knees and pray
But try as you may
My vote is nay
So tell your god I said "Hey"
Because I won't be seeing him today

She's fierce yet caring
A lioness with her cubs
Mom, our pack leader

Light shines through the cracks
House with many memories
Unspoken secrets

Father, the teacher
Stories, lectures, instructions
A cherished life guide

Today was a good day
Left the house
With ripped pants
Sat on a hill
Full of ants
But today

Today was a good day
Got to work
An hour late
My boss
Beyond irate
But today

Today was a good day
Ate lunch
In a haste
Spilled all over
What a waste
But today

Today was a good day
Had to work
Late tonight
The bus
Out of sight
But today

Today was a good day
Walked through
My front door
Saw your face
Smile so pure
And today
Today was a good day

Windows in my house
Gateway to the outside world
Gateway to my soul

Blank piece of paper
Just staring me in the face
Words don’t write themselves
