Pain

A jolt of pain goes through my body.

Making me feel weak and scared.

They say pain is only weakness leaving the body

But, When will i feel strong again.

Another jolt happens and I am weaker again.

I guess I have to endure this pain of weakness to become stronger again.

Politics

Talk, Talk, Talk.
Is all that comes from their mouths.

They are trying to change the world in a short period of time, but it will take much longer.
They create laws to try to control the people, but that won't help a bit.
For people are tired of being poor and hearing about politics.

Muse

Sparks happen inside his head.

My hand leaves his heart and a jolt of inspiration vibrates through his body.

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

Three shocks happen and he lights up his paper with words.

He writes his poetry and inspires many.

Little does anyone know that I am his muse lighting up his fire.

Sleep

Close your eyes and go to sleep,
And dream of something great.
For tomorrow you may not have another chance to dream big.

But if tomorrow you are given another chance of life.
Let you dream come to life when you open your eyes.
But for now go to sleep and rest my darling.
So you can also shine at night.

Heart

Heart.
Why can't I fix you?
He sprinkled his blackness all over my heart like rain coming down from the sky.
Where is the tape so I can mend my heart?

Is it lost in his soul where the black hole hides or is it in the girl's heart who he longs everynight like a kid longs for candy.
I guess I will never know

Brave

Be brave.
Be adventurous.
For you only live once.

Step out of you shell,
And let your body fill with joy.

For you have gained the courage to do the unthinkable.
No go show everybody your true self.

For they have been waiting for it this whole time.
All it takes is a little courage to help make you shine brighter.

Matter

Would it matter if I was gone tomorrow?
Would it matter if I hurt myself?

For at times it seems like nothing matters.
Not even myself.

As I lie on the floor I ask myself over and over again in my mind,
Would it matter?

For right now the answer is no it wouldn't matter.
Maybe in the morning I will think differently.

Dolphin

Jump up like a dolphin out of the water.
Use your fins to go far.

You may feel down and like your sinking down lower,
But just come up for air once in a while.

Do some flips and tricks too.
Let the world see the amazing you.

Now go swim in the ocean with the big creatures.
For today the world is ready for you to jump up and shine.

Blow

I want to take away your pain and blow it away into the wind.

I want to blow off the dust covering you and make you new again.

For we all get dust on ourselves once in a while, just like a floor gets dirty,

But this time I will sweep up your dust.

That way you will be new in your eyes even though in my eyes you have always been.

Asking

He dances around.
For he is happy even though this feeling may not last forever.

He stares fear in the face as his future draws near.
Will she stay or run like a deer being chased by a cheetah?

He will soon find out as he rings the doorbell to her house.
Ding

Dong.
His question has already been answered for her door was open all along.
