Colour Blind

I ate a blue tomato
My friend said is a potato
He hit his head
On the restaurant's bed
Which is as purple as snow

In the Dark

In the dark
All thoughts lie stark
In the dark
There is a spark
In the dark
He hits his mark
In the dark
Down falls the lark

The Afro

There once was a man on Pluto
Who had a great big afro
He combed his hair
(Lost his sister there)
Don't worry, that was quite long ago

An Ended Life

So I die
None will cry
Not on my
Life

I still try
Not to cry
Not for my
Life

I will hide
Alone I cry
All of my
Life

So goodbye
I do not cry
As I end my
Life

Connect to Nature

White hair
Blue eyes
White clouds
Blue skies

Pink hair
Brown shirt
Pink flowers
Brown dirt

So many ways to connect to nature
Let's fix ourselves; change our future

The Eyes

Across the street the eyes
Are swathed in dark's disguise
Across the street the eyes
Froze all my insides
Across the street the eyes
Panicked and surprised
Across the street the eyes
Slashed through the frigid cries

Friendliness

If you are feeling blue
And you don't know what to do

If you need a friend
That will stay until the end

If you want to make my day
You can visit me some day

And I'm sure that'll be okay
If you are my friend today

Unknown

To those who know me
I'm all I can be
I know it's not much
What I try to touch
Is what I can't reach
Your heart I can't breach
And sometimes I feel
As though nothing is real
These feelings I feel
I do try to conceal
I don't want to be weak
It's happiness I seek

Alone

I'm all alone
Left to my thoughts
There's no one home
Opening this box
Left to my thoughts
I'm going mad
Opening this box
Just makes me sad
I'm going mad
Inside my mind
It makes me sad
At what I find
Inside my mind
There's no one home
It makes me sad
I'm all alone

Only Together at Night

Last night I dreamed
Dreamed on a beach
Last night I dreamed
Of you and me
Last night I dreamed
That we could be
Together
Forever

Last night I dreamed
That you had died
Last night I dreamed
That in my strife
I took my life
Yes, this I dreamed
That we could be
Together
Forever
