Poetry : If I had a Timemachine
Every now and then
The day will break
And you open your eyes
Thinking, not again
And you push yourself
out thinking, this is how it must be
You're young and sweet and all of fourteen,
but you look like you've been at it since sixteen
Oh darling! When did you get so old?
Remember the time without a care in the world
When you awoke,
just to see the clouds swirl
Oh dear! Where did those days go away?
Why don't you let yourself go have fun?
Play around , goof around, life has just begun
Are you scared people won't like you then?
Oh darling! They don't like you anyway
Did you think there was a purpose to life?
That we wake up for a reason that God has spoke
But sweetheart, no one cares you exist
This life, it's only for us
You can find what you want, or just grow old
If today was the end
Would you be proud of yourself?
You can get what you want
Or what everyone else would want
There is no way to sit on the fence,
So , tell me, Who do you choose?
Will you just let yourself sing and dance?
Does it not get easier to shoo blues away
when you are whatever you are
The people, they will be swayed
And I know it's hard to listen to me
Since, I sit so deep,
But it sure is easier than listening to everyone?
So listen, what do you choose?
