Premium Member Word Eater


Self-assertion blatant, repelling babble exuberant, closing floodgates you eschew, none fooled by you.

you speak,
winds shriek,

shout loud,
feel proud,

you brag
self tag,

your lies
none buys,

voice lone,
place shown,

musk breaks,
face wrecks,

mouth shut,
stops glut.

You blurt garbage dirt, off your guard, torn to shard, do a volte-face, eat words in disgrace.

Life Is Short

Life life should be treasured because 
Life is short and before you know it 
You might die anytime anywhere 
Life is filled with with thing to enjoy
Even though life does not seem fun 
First but it is worth it.

Life might show it's bad side before 
It Shows the good and bright side 
You must hold your head high and 
Fight against the evil.

Fight against the darkness 
Fight against the whispers 
Don't let them get to you 
Don't let your darkness 
Catch you off  your guard 

Keep your guard up 
Try to find the bright thing 
In life because once your 
Life is at the end there is no
Turning back 

Live will your young.................wanna live while your.
