The monsters under your bed didn't leave because you weren't scared of them any more,

They left because their job was to scare kids not one of their own.
How often do we find ourselves becoming the thing we resent?
A repost.

I'm only young i haven't yet seen the world,
I'm only just  beginning  to understand,
How the world works and runs,
And how our world is everyones.

I've heard the world is a bad place,
That people **** and steal,
And others that try to and disgrace,
Our human race.

I've heard the world is a good place,
That people help and assist others,
And others that are really ace,
That say we are all brothers.

Mostly the world is an OK place,
It has places good and bad,
And although i am still young and still building my knowledge base,
I know the our world can be a great and happy place.

What is that you saw in my eyes
When we first met,
That you cannot see now....

In the throes of Heartbreak Canyon,
I came across a fellow rover;
he spoke of his undying love,
while she told him, it was over.
We shared the lonely miles together,
and talked about, the pits of hell;
he was a spectacle of plight,
a man in torment...I as well.
Yet there are hurts that can't be shared,
and there are words that can't be spoken;
there's only emptiness of souls,
when two loving hearts are broken.
Lost in a wasteland, nothing grows,
the ground beneath you... shaking;
and you've no solace from a friend,
a sorry world of your own making.
Here's where Heartbreak Canyon is,
it's in the canyons of your mind;
where misery replaces love,
lost with souls of your own kind.

To have you in my dreams..
devoid of just a touch..
is but a nightmare..
a barren land..
my destitute.
