Greedy rich still take from the poor
seem to think they still need more
If I had one wish it would be
to try to help and make us free

I'd wish all on earth have one wish
from man to dog and from cat to fish
This one wish would come with a rule
to keep it fair and make no one a fool

You could only wish for another
maybe dad, mother, sister or brother
Couldn't share or make no deals
just to see how good generosity feels

When best of plans have been laid
all the wishes should be made
to change these people make them see
you don't need stuff to be happy!

Getting married at 22 sound a lot like leaving the party at 9:30
Like leaving the party when there are only three people there
Like leaving the party although you have not uttered a word to another soul
Like leaving the party before anybody new arrives
Like leaving the party when only the beer has showed up and no liquor
Like leaving the party before the cool kids even show their faces
Like committing the rest of your life to vanilla ice cream and you’ve only ever tasted vanilla ice cream
Like sticking with what you know and not venturing away
Getting married at 22 sounds a lot like settling down

I hate it when people try to help you,
When you don't need or want it.

But as soon as you need help,
They turn their back on you and find excuses,
In order to not help you.
I JUST WANT MY FREAKIN' LUNCH MUM. IS IT THAT HARD TO DRIVE TO SCHOOL AND BRING IT TO ME FOR ONCE IN YOUR MISERABLE LIFE. STOP BEING SO LAZY.

Born of violence an lived it too
yet here I am gentle
as I touch you

Strength in me you know so well
it is held back now
and you can tell

I care for you and yes it shows
through skin made tough
from nature's blows

The beauty in me on which you feast
seems strange to me
as I see beast

King I am of all I have seen
but what good is a king
if he has no queen

I am going to leave this story untold
and carry it with me wherever I go
If anyone sees all the words in my eyes
I'll swallow them up in an ocean of smiles
I'd rather hold on to the taste of the past
than throw too much salt at the people who ask
*Remember September, remember July
the former a baby, the latter is I
"not at the moment."

i am enough fire
all on my own
just like you
it's engraved
in our bones
remind me again
why we ever feel lost
when the stars up above
are where we had once crossed
we are divine, we don't need to define our reasons behind why the moon and its shine make our hearts beat faster. there's a reason i master the look in your eyes, there's no need to disguise us. the love in. your heart fills with the people whose parts may be played by the souls who once sparked your first star. oh, can't you see? you are all parts of me; we are everything we see: all we hope, feel and dream... there is no separation, no matter the nation; collectively we are one human ration. my thoughts are not mine and when i'm feeling fine, your limbic system opens up to feel Love i find. we are not lost, our bodies accost, our souls will be tossed to the sky and it's loft. our eternity is now, every moment somehow fills with perfectly sequenced which why's and how's. so go take a bow, you deserve Love right now. you have felt so much pain, yet you still march on now. and oh, you grow far. through each fall and heartache you've found who you are. your name's in the stars and they feel all your scars. these losses obtained are not all you are.
you're your own cosmic hue,
perfectly subdued. divine
how you are, your Light
shines so far, it is
f l o w i n g to
me to glow
out of my
heart

she is afraid she is not enough, yet too much, all at once
