The beat of a heart keeps the world going.
So when the heart stops,
So does the world in which you live.

But the world goes on.

The beat of a heart keeps people together.
So when people break apart,
The world at which they knew does too.

But the world goes on.

The beat of a heart keeps the mind together.
So when the heart breaks,
The mind breaks too.

But the world goes on.

The beat of the heart makes it hard to make decisions.
So when your mind makes a decision,
Your heart makes a different one.

But the world goes on.

So if everyone follows his or her heart,
And then all their hearts stop.
Will the world go on?
Today is a day,
In which you were born.

Today is a day,
You like to scorn.

Today is a day,
You gain one more.

Today is the day,
You came into existence.

The day you joined,
This beautiful world,
In which you’ve grown old.

So today is the day,
In which you celebrate,
The year you have spent,
In this magnificent life.
Problems are here,
Problems are there.

Some you can fix,
Some you have to bare.

Others are both,
And just make you scared.

But problems only happen,
When you dare,
To try to fix something,
Already there.
People are smart.
People are wise.
People are the kings of the animals,
But people are also,
Dumber than posts.

I know you might disagree,
With the logic I've just decreed,
But if you do disagree,
Then explain these questions to me.

Why is there still discrimination,
Between the races?

Why do People shoot each other,
Over a ring,
When there are more,
In the store?

Why can’t the smartest person in the world,
Figure out a simple puzzle?

Why do People cry for People who died,
When they don’t even know the person?

Even a broader question.
Why do People cry over death,
When they know it is coming?

If you could answer all the questions,
Good for you!!
You are truly,
The wisest of all People.

Now that you are,
The wisest of all People,
I have one more question.

How many more years,
Do all the People in the world,
Have to live?
Little by little,
It moves down the line,
One person at a time.

Each person adds a little,
‘Til it has grown,
Into a lie,

A lie nobody can handle,
And nobody will try.

As you try to end the lie,
You tell the truth,
Which doesn’t thrive.

So you tell another lie,
And another lie,
‘Til you finally die,
Which puts the lie,
In the box,
In which you lie.
Orange,
Yellow,
Pink,
And red.

These are the colors,
I turn when I am dead.

Smirking,
Giggling,
And laughing.

This is what I hear,
From my friends.

Twisting,
And turning.

Is what happens to me,
When I fall from the tree.

Thud!

Is what I feel,
When I have reached,
My last resting place,
For me to sleep.
Today I had another fight with you,
I’ll be *******,
‘Til the day is new,
When the sun shines through,
The window that you’re looking through.

I say hi to you,
And bye to you,
And all I get is a nod from you.

I ask you for help,
And help you when you ask,
But all I get is the glare,
That cuts right through me,
While I sit there in that class.

I try to apologize for my acts,
But I get pushed back,
So what will it take,
To remove this stake,
That is driven between us.
