My Fear Of Other PeopleI fear the eyes of strangers cold,
The ones that meet but never hold,
They seem to judge my smallest ways,
In silent scorn they leave me dazed.

It's All in Your POVHow would you feel,
If you went home today
To find a strange creature
Had entered your cave
While you were away?

If the door to your cave
Had been kicked in by a kid
Who just could...

And unhealed mothers
Mothers who act like children just because they grew up too fast
Because their mother was a little too harsh on them

A Child ClingsA Child Clings

Eyes and ears vigilant,

A Handful of HopeThe skeletal dome,?

?a fragile hope,
?a plea for peace....

Through the sunlit meadows
I hear the same voice
Echoed different
Each time.
As my gazes fall
From the subtle ocean floating...
