Shakira

Structured is how she is built
Hopeful that every day will bring a brighter sun
Always thankful for what she has and not complaining about what she lacks
Kind to all that are kind to her
Immune to lies, she can see right through them
Realistic is how she lives and sees
Always helping those who need it

Fly Away

Out of my window I watched a bird
Watching her as rumours stirred
She was sitting on a branch alone
Wondering how long she’ll be on her own

A squirrel came by the bird
He didn’t stop to say a word
Except for laugh about the fact
She looked a little abstract

She continued to sit on her branch
Her heart sounding like an avalanche
The rain started pouring
The animals were warring

The sun finally came at last
Sitting there dwelling in the past
People just stare at her as if she’s a monster
Deep inside it makes her stronger

The more they laugh
Her confidence splits in half
She wishes she had friends
If she did her life wouldn’t have come to an end

Faith Now Has Two Meanings

Full of power and hope
Amen is what she says after every prayer
Intense is her life story
True to her friends and her word
Hoping that there is a brighter Sun in every tomorrow

Catcher In the Rye

Horny
Corny

Kinky 
Stinky

Stoned
Boned

Holden 
Folding

His biz
Takes wizz

Hit can
Effed man...

Found hoe
No dough

Name sun
Big buns

No clothes
Touch toes

She roared
She sore

More dough
Said no

Pimp slap
Got jacked

(If you have read the Catcher in the Rye you would understand).

What Am I

I devour children as if they were appetizers
Every time I stop I let out a big yawn
I also stretch my arms because it gets a little cramped
I dress flashy
At the end of the day I look trashy

Guess What I Am

I may be old, but I am deadly
Mess with me and I’ll hurt you if not kill you
I am always angry
Ready to explode at any second
Make the wrong move and I’ll mess with your head
People use me to get to other people
What can I say? I guess I’m lethal…
