With all the politics askew The U.S and North Korea in a big blue A chance they'll bring this world to an end With both hoping their bombs can mend But then there's hope With many animals at risk Their lives taken at a whisk First endangered, soon extinct Mostly humans, the culprits, have been … Continue reading Hope

Milly
When I first saw you, all I could see was teeth I knew that I would love whatever was beneath Your appearance mirrored that of Cousin It But somehow I knew we were the perfect fit Since you arrived, your devotion is intense When you look at me, your smile immense The words: "You break … Continue reading Milly
Obsession
You're my world, you're my reason for being You're the reason I constantly have this feeling This internal deep love embedded in mind and heart I think I'd die if we were forever apart. Even in my dreams, you're always by my side Whenever my dreams became nightmares, I cried The thought of anything ever … Continue reading Obsession
Bully
"Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me" That old saying would bring some moans and it's the words that I would flee All that's said cuts deeply in as if it were a knife Memories of these words to this day scar my life You don't need to be … Continue reading Bully
I remember

My family never believed me Neither did most of my friends How can … Continue reading Doubtful
Unprepared
I loved you, I hated you, I wanted you dead You hurt me deeply with all that you said The feeling was mutual you hated me too But secretly you loved me, that I knew Our relationship was rough, we fought every day There seemed no mending it, no how, no way. The older you … Continue reading Unprepared
The Forgotten
Those that can't work are seen as taking up space Accused of not keeping up with the modern rat race Because we don't earn enough to pay back the big bosses They see us as useless and cut back their losses When juggling funds to work out what money goes where The sick and aged … Continue reading The Forgotten
Monotony of Life
We go through the motions every hour, every day Wake up, have breakfast, and be on our way To the office or outdoors, wherever work may be. The tasks never change, boredom is the key We dream of better futures, a land far and free Visions of nature that the mind's eye can see Where … Continue reading Monotony of Life
