The only time someones picked up a page
Branded by my name
Is when I'm poetic and meaningful
Who am I kidding?
Nothing I write ever gets read
See? Did you feel the emotion?
That's ok, no need for commotion
Hush down, don't you get loud
Hush now, wow, there's no sound
Well obviously,
With logic, see
And harmony
Within each beat
Makes easy things
So heartbreaking
You close your eyes
So you can see
Why the children are scared
And
The parents aren't there
And
Maybe, if you're lucky
You'll find all the horrid agony!
Cancer free
Begged mercy
Humanity
Lacks maturity
What I saw, I see
What broke inside me
A tragedy
For what I can be
My curtains closed and my chair tilt back
The air is warm, my vision black
The fire's dim, the wood still cracks
Imagine no life beyond the stacks
