What once was there Became a place of none What once holds dear Must have been fun Your stories sunk and drown Forgotten and old Yet worthy of a royal crown It must continue to be told A home so small Enough to dress in earth A twitching ear perked to the call For there is some worth The stories lost in the flood Found the one who has hurled A sign that taught the green bud To be open to the world

My body is too numb to leave the cold ground I can't bother to call around The valley I rest on is much too vast And I look too small to be noticed in the mass I am one Yet I am none Do I ask for help? Can I yelp? How should I make the first move? How do I prove? I am right there Yet none know I am here I left a clue in the fog For I am no log I breathe the same as life for years For I made sure to save my tears I don't wish to shrivel on instant I cannot create floods as does an infant They spark energy, but weigh a pail of rain I have been called a rock, but underneath it's all pain I wait more to calm my stormy heart For I am too afraid to split myself apart I ask this to avoid having to say goodbye Where am I

Listen what's that from afar? Could this be the sound of a roar? But why does the ground shake? Is it this an earthquake? What is that at the top? Should I go over and hop? Mister drummer is that you? Am I ruining your cue? Will you let me stay to see you play? Will you play again for another day? Why does my heart pound? Why does my voice have a muffled sound? Am I seeing rain? Am I feeling pain? Why do you hurt me so? Why did you left me in the cold? Did you know how long I wait? Did you know how many times I check the date? Do you know how I feel? How do I know you are real? Will you play louder for me? Will I have to plea? Can you give me a call? I want to hear your all

Orange and yellow Surprising my small brown eyes Turning them golden

Mother brings her daughter a gift "A present for my sweet love" The little girl looks with curiosity "What is it?" Mother gave her a smile "Open it" And so the little girl did "Is this really for me?" Mother's smile grew wider "Do you like her?" The little girl gives the doll a hug "I love her. She looks like my sister" Mother kisses her cheek "Take good care of her" The little girl stares at her in the eyes "I promise to never let her leave my side" Mother looks at her with adoration "Make your mother proud" The little girl always has the doll by her side She carries her wherever she goes Mother is always watching her She loves the little girl for keeping her word The little girl never lets the doll go She is always with her even when she sleeps Mother is always there in her dreams She leaves when morning light shows The little girl went to venture out She carries the doll on her back Mother is gone and she needs to find her She leaves when she hears a

The time I am at an odd age Where do I go from here Every so often I look back to my old days Not much to say now Tomorrow will be a new day for me Yet one I will call another typical day someday Then I hope to cherish what I have now Humbled and happy I shall remain Rest easy while I still can Everyone I know goes through that stage Even as I grow older

I cannot stop itching My skin turns red and writhing The bugs will not leave me be The parasites make me screech My body does not belong to me This one livelihood sucked by the leech Find the thread everyone says Turning to that direction with their heads I rather not go to that void My head is spinning from this nightmare These deceived eyes does not avoid Perhaps I am going to bright care
