Rain is the
PITTER patter
PITTER patter
like a drum hitting your roof

The rain is the calming voice of a mother singing her baby a lullaby
Without rain there would be no pitter patter calming you
Without rain the world will shrivel up and die
Rain is important
It's what makes the world alive
The world needs rain

kindness loves to play
Hate loves to watch people fight
they are like yin and yang always opposites
without hate everything will be to happy
without kindness everything will be to scary and mean
they both play an important role
they are what make the world around us
our world

Alexander is the stern voice
like a hammer beating me down
Yelling at me "your awful!"
But all my names can do that
my nicknames my mistaken names
All can be stern all can be mean

Alexander can also be Alex
Alex is the supportive voice of my coaches and teachers
lifting me up like the windy wind on a beach
But all my names can do that
my nicknames my mistaken names
all can be supportive all can be kind
All my names are me

The fox as calm and patient as a knitter
the wolf as aware and understanding as a security camera
both are allies both are enemies
it just depends on what these qualitys are being used FOR
the one who would win the battle
good vs. bad
is the one you let take over and control you and you are in the battle to
you decide who wins

O, sleep
you are what gets me through the day
with enough charge to get me through school
without you i would be a zombie  moving as slow as a snail

O, sleep
i love the way you allow me to drift of too sleep
like a baby snuggled up in its covers

O, sleep
your great
dont let anybody change that

Being creative
It is inside everyone
You just have to find it

A blank page is the war of ideas and a blank mind
like a giant wall as tall as Mount Everest
on one side there are ideas on the other side nothing
some how the side of nothing is stronger than the side with ideas
warding off anything that attacks
but then somehow one idea slithered like a snake onto the page
all of a sudden emotions word figurative language come crashing down on the page
like a explosion of wonderful glorius colors
finally the war was over and ideas won

counting down except counting up
counting to high school
counting to college
but sometimes
sometimes
You just don't want too count up anymore
You want to be the kid with nothing too do
no problems
why would you grow up anyway?
whats the point?
so you could get old and wrinkly forgetting your
10's
11's
and 12's
whats the point?

A thing with feathers
Isn't hope
Its death
Creeping up behind you
Waiting
Waiting
W-A-I-T-I-N-G
until

Broken
Fractured
Shattering into a million pieces

she is a scouring devil
searching for one that fits
each night she floats
into a childs room
she slides her hand
into the pillow
like a slithery snake
she then
then
SHOVES the toothe up her gums
in dissapointment
she leaves
leaves to another room
