I Wish Poem
I wish I had a less annoying sister.
I wish I had a lot of money.
I wish I had no school at all.
I wish I had a fancy lunch and dinner.
I wish I had a worldwide vacation.
I wish I had a less hectic life.
I wish I had a magic wand
to make all my wishes
come true.
Ballad- Springtime
the first good sign of spring
She feeds her babies oh so well
there's so much food to bring!
All flowers bloom so big and tall
the bees come to get food
They flee around like startled cats
for sure in a good mood
It starts to rain so heavily
the trees all start to blow
They wave their limbs and start to dance
to put on a big show
By now my friend, the end is near
there's nothing else to see
We wait so long to see the spring
but I'll be at the beach
Shattered Images
I feel like I'm going to burst, go insane
What is the point of all this laughter?
Is it all just a game?
Do they know what it feels like to be alone or left out?
They don't care what I think, they'll just scream and shout
Is this "task" they're doing meant to be fun?
Cause' if it is, I'm totally done!
Why don't you live my life and experience something real
not be fake, and actually care about how other people feel
All along I've been broken down
by these shattered images
Why do I always feel out of place?
Will my life be ruined by these shattered images?
Or one day, will I stand up to them face to face.
My fear of these images will pull me through
the tough times when I don't know what to do
Being put down is an everyday thing
and I always feel the pain they bring
The pain they bring and me feeling out of place
is all part of the game they're playing, getting to the finish line
Wanting to win their race.
All along I've been broken down
by these shattered images
Why do I always feel out of place?
Will my life be ruined by these shattered images?
Or one day, will I stand up to them face to face.
