Just enough to survive
We're trying to hide
To hide behind our hands
But our hands are too small
And our lives aren't bland
We are trying to hard
To be something we're not
So come out of your shell
It's not all that you've got
You don't seem to understand
There's more to life than what they show
In books they tell love and happiness
In life, humans are rarely that slow
Time to explain what life is about
To the unworthy of the lot
They'll be sure to understand
As they've nothing more but a blot.

When You Read it, You'll know me
PoetryJust words that flow A river in my head It twists and turns And never stays the same The current is strong You can never go back Pen it down And remember The joy of the ride Through the rough bumpy tide That are the words In my mind.
