I clinch my hands with the soil below,
knowing I have little to show...
In the grace of time and life,
I see others go through their strife...
Beautiful to smell and touch but I do not dare,
to grasp its neck and hold it without care...
Fourteen and you know the world as you can see,
a vision of life and what love can be...
When my eyes close I still see,
the pain that you gave to me...
Please read this before you vote
Our leaders are like bullies that care not for men...
The steel bar is placed over my waist,
and I watch while other run in their place in...
In the darkness I feel your body by me,
And I know you are here even without me even to...
Tonight as my eyes shut,
I will shuffle of this rut...
I have walked alone in my life for what seems like...
Knowing all my lessons in life bleed through my...
You will be some one big when you grow,
But that was never the show...
You took my family and left me without a friend,
you told me our love was forever then you told me...
