Ready for a new life
A whole school
Of three hundred smiles
Hopefully, the autumn breeze
Will take me where
I need to be
My blacked out eyes
Will yours meet mine
On the very first day
Or will the current
Rip me away

I want to be grounded
I need to be strong
But something's eating
Up my insides
Telling me I've been gone
For far too long
I can't make up
For the wasted days
Rotting away
Behind reinforced glass
Wishing that today
Might be my last

A friend is someone
who brings you their light
when you are drowning
in your own darkness

A friend is someone
who shares in your joys
and is excited
for your achievements.

A friend is someone
who accepts and loves
you for who you are
and who you'll become.

The day will come soon
when we will be smiling.
Under the bright sun
when we will be shining.

That night will come soon
when we will not be awake.
Under the moonlight
when we will not break.

feeling closed off
from the place
i once called home

looking for a new
place were I can
roam.

oh the clock ticks
tocks
towards my departure
new place
almost-new life
i’m terrified and excited

oh, how hard it is
to understand how
soon
it is

She asked me how I felt

And when I opened my mouth

A butterfly flew out
