My World

My world, was full of happiness and bright

my world, comforting from daylight to night.

my world, seeing animals ripping people into bloody tears,

I know now that they shouldn't be my biggest fears.

 

My world, unaccepting and cruel

my world, run by a monster who uses fear as fuel.

My world, not allowing me to be who I am,

my world, making me believe that what I want is a scam.

my world, wanting to take away my family and rights,

my world, so big I know I won't be able to put up a fight.

  • Your Words

    Your words, so sweet and so nice
    Your words, we would play and scamper like mice.
    We would play dinosaurs or horses, and could you believe,
    that I would go to the grave of our friendship and grieve.

  • Dolls

    Dolls, who you dress up in pink and white, 

    dolls, who you take to the park or on a flight, 

    dolls, who are made of plastic and cloth, 

    they are always so girly, never unique or even goth.

  • Perfect

    Perfect, as golden long hair and light blue eyes
    perfect, as a light complexion, as she is as graceful as a bird flies.
    perfect, as cute as a doll.
    But this, may not be perfect for some at all.
