You’re not his match,You’ll only be hurt.Asked to play fetch,Treated like dirt. I know that miscreant,I’m your predecessor.He’s a real truant,Big-time aggressor. Oh, wicked he was,Is and forever will be.Operates in his own laws,I didn’t know, damned...

The day is youngThere's plenty to do,And if they don't turn outI will have to redo.Practice makes perfectI've often been told,Over and over againUntil returns manifold.This road is long and roughMakes my life so stressful,I will persevere, all rightC...

The twists and turnsThat we have to navigate;This path called lifeGreen pastures from the gate.Love it or hate itJust move forward;Take one day at a timeStep by step onward.It may be an arduous taskBut then, "It's easy," said no one;The view may not...

Nothing Goes Right

Nothing seems to go rightIs something wrong with me,Apparently yes, some sayMaybe it's true, to a degree.But neither can you denyThat you're not making it easy,When I can't handle itOverwhelmed and feel queasy.All you did was stand asideWhile I strug...

The splattering rain outsideCovers the sound of my sobsMy eyes may seem dry to youbut the tears flow in my heartPiercingly painful it isA hurt that no one knows,Or can they seeOr will they care.It was good while it lastedBut the time has come,To brea...
