Is there an answer to the
cause of sin?
Why we're slowly falling
to our self-made demise?
How people get so greedy,
to never spare a thought for the needy?
Can someone tell me why,
people break each others' hearts?
Is it fun to lie, or tear people apart?

Is there an answer or will there never be?

People make mistakes,
it's what makes us human
Hoping not to break,
it's what makes us human
Doing whatever it takes,
it's what makes us human


Someday, we'll find the answers
'Till then, let's get through this together
Saving people who are lost,
Fighting at any cost.
Why are you just standing there?
can't you stop the crying?
People are already getting killed,
people are already dying

*Why crush hope?
This was made into a song, hence the awkward layout.

A pretty girl, you think thats all, but if you look, shes about to fall. She gave up, she has no hope, she walks around trying to cope. All the cuts, the swollen eyes, she always has to try and hide. She fears they will soon come and find, every weakness behind her eyes.
Art
All I had was a pen and memories. I Found something sharp, so I made red ink. My skin was my canvas, you were my muse, Using my colours, purple and red hues. I created a dream, hidden from reality, for us together, is never to be.
Living helpless, I lost my way. An endless pit, a hollow day. I saw a light, shining bright, to guide me back into your sight. I was broken, you fixed my soul, you began to make me feel whole. You took my pieces, scattered far, now whats left is just a scar. You found me, lost and alone, but you took me in, and gave me a home.
This is probably my least depressing poem.
A feeling strange, dark and true. I follow its path, it leads to you. Tender days when we were together, now blown in the wind,  light as a feather. I sit here at last, at our special place, my fear has been realized, I've been replaced.
