Disheartened - January 27, 2013

Do you ever feel

Like you’re tapped in the open

Everywhere’s an option

But there’s nowhere to go

I feel like that

It sucks.

Photographs (August 16, 2011)

You know how to act
How fake a smile in the eyes
You bare your teeth at the world
Thank of daisies and butterflies
The camera goes flash
The people turn away
Shining eyes fade to away
You can’t ever cry
It makes make up run
Give a sigh, bite your lip
Just makes it pinker anyway
Shake your head
Stand up straight
Smile again, shine your eyes
You can cry on the inside
And hurt all you want
But if you smile on the outside
That’s all that they want
Some will ask questions
But you lie, you’re okay
They know that you’re lying
But don’t know what to say
So you sigh
Fake a smile
Bare those teeth at the world
But the world doesn’t care
As long as your eyes smile too

Book-lover

If you don't know already, I'm a big fan of books and have a lot of them, 176 in fact.

176 (written January 18, 2011)

One, seven, six
One, seventy-six
One hundred and seventy-six
Books on my shelf

One, seven, six
Book are my fix
When all by myself
I turn to books on my shelf
One, seven, six

One, seventy-six
My books do not mix
With two candles on the ledge
Staying far from the edge
One, seventy-six

One hundred and seventy-six
Books of friends or schools or tricks
From my mum and her mum's hoard
With these books I'll never be bored
One hundred and seventy-six
