Your eyes gleam like the ocean in the sunset

Your hair dark like the stallion in your soul

I can’t get enough of you and I never will

You brighten my day every time we’re together

When you smile, I can breathe

And the look on your face tells your soul

You’re an amazing girl and I hope I reach you

I will always love you, ‘till the end

At a time when humanity was at a crossroads

One man made a change

The world was transformed with one idea

The city that followed had great pride

Until the world got in on the prize

Now the land lay in ruin

Worse than it’s ever been before

And the cure is… there is no cure

Friendship is key in a time of need

The people around you can define you

Make the right choices and you win

Find yourself falling and you fail

Friendship is everything

Loneliness is pain

The days run together,

Like a water color painting.

Hoping for a day with bad-weather,

The sun seems like its staining,

Its brightness is damaging his eye.

The calming of the moon frees him,

Night is the time he wants to buy,

The effect of the drugs dimming him

In knowing the next nights come,

It brings him comfort and pain.

The decision to enter the slum,

Was what got the addict slain.

People say they love the outdoors

But they secretly cheat

Barely saving a can

They cry over pollution.

Though accomplishing every feat

We slowly meet our fate

A slow, damaging defeat

Of the  place we call home.

You’ve seen the world

The good and bad

From Vietnam to Australia

Made memories, lost friends

You had to get out, it’s okay

You make me want to be the best I can be

But I’m not sure I know how

When I look in the mirror,

What do I see?

A young man, happy and free,

Or a scared little boy

The man is on the outside,

For the outside world,

But the boy screams for release.

Childhood never dies,

It just gets hidden by responsibility
