Walls with Ears
Ears don't guarantee hearing,
let alone actual listening.
All My Todays
You're the saddest bunch I've ever met
So pack up, go home, you're through
I was told when I get older all my fears would shrink
But now I'm insecure and I care what people think
I'm just a sad song
I walk a lonely road
The only one that I have ever known
Don't know where it goes
But it's home to me and I walk alone
We'll build a perfect family
I'm not okay
You wear me out
And I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist
Please don't make any sudden moves
You don't know the half of the abused
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows
For just one yesterday
Put a bullet through my head
And I'm gone, gone, gone, gone.
Get Up!
My friend, what is your next step? You stumbled, but
does that mean that you have to stay down? I
do not believe that you should fight alone. Let me
help where I can and where I cannot, I will
seek advice from the wise so that you can thrive.
Dance
Dance like no one's watching
Twirl around
Jump up high
Or just bounce.
Dance like no one's watching
Do a pique
Pretend that you have a partner
Or you're a hip hop master.
Dance like no one's watching
Take your mum's hand
Twirl her around
And watch her playful smile come out.
Dance like no one's own
Twirk a little
Even though you're horrible at it
Just enjoy yourself a bit.
Dance like no one's watching
Do a contemporary piece
Just dance a little
And let your mind at ease.

flutter
enthralled eyes
wistfully watch
pretty pitter patter

snatch savagely
crack
weak wings
broken by
juvenile jealousy
of otherworldly

The Breakin’ Up Blues
The ego enters;
epitome of exploitation
Such selfish self-soothing;
Suffering spawns spite
Inhumane? Perhaps insane?
Blaspheming your beloved
Loving becomes loathing
Seek validation in vanity
Receive redemption in rage
Invitation to Humanity
Come for all or Come for some
Stay to perish or Stay to cherish
Sublimely or Intentionally
For greed or For need
Come for or Come for
Nothing in between
Politics
I fell in love with an idea,
Until I met the man behind it.
Since then
My dreaming has turned to weeping.
Mulan
Never the daughter
Forever a son, the one
China calls hero.
Gaia
Strange tears in a petri dish.
