CHERRYWOOD

 

IN THE CORNER OF MY WINDOW,

SO SMALL I CAN BARELY SEE,

IS A PLACE CALL CHERRYWOOD,

AND EVERYONE IS JUST SO SWEET.

 

WHEN I LOOKED AND LOOKED,

I CAN’T EVEN START TO TELL,

ALL THE BEAUTY THAT IT CARRIES,

IT AMAZES ME WICH SUCH DETAIL.

 

ALL THE PEOPLE ARE SO SMALL,

AND THEY HAVE SUCH HAPPY FACES,

THE DANCE AND THEY SING ALONG,

AT THE RYMES THAT THEY COMPOSE.

 

ALL THE WORK IS PLAY OUT THERE,

THEY DON’T EVEN SEEM TO CARE,

EVEN DO THEY WORK TO HARD,

THEY JUST SING ALONG THE LAND.

 

IN THE PLACE I LOVED TO STARE,

THEY ALREADY KNOW MY NAME,

THEY WILL TROW A BIG EVENT,

CAUSE I’M THE GIANT WHO’S THEIR FRIEND.

 

A LONELY WIZARD,

THAT I ADMIRED,

GAVE A BIG SURPRISE THAT DAY,

HE GAVE ME THIS MAGIC POTION,

SO THAT I COULD BECOME JUST LIKE THEM.

 

I DRANK IT TILL IT WAS NO MORE,

I JOINED THEM IN THE BIG EVENT,

THERE WHERE SO HAPPY I WAS THERE,

IT WAS SO LATE IT WAS HALVE PASS TWELVE.

 

I STARTED DANCING AND SING ALONG,

THE HOURS PAST AS IF IT WHERE YEARS,

WHEN I LOOKED DOWN ON MY WATCH,

IT WASN’T TICKING I GOT A CHILL.

 

WHEN THE EFFECT STARTED TO DISSAPPEAR,

I GREW UP TIL FIT MY SIZE,

SOMETHING MISSING IN MY ROOM,

A BIG SURPRISE I COME TO FIND.

 

TEN YEARS PASSED WHEN I WAS THERE,

I DIDN’T EVEN NOTICE TO CARE,

IT WAS SO QUICKLY I DIDN’T SEE,

THE PEOPLE I WAS HURTING HERE.

 

MY FAMILY MOVED OUT THIS PLACE,

WHEN I SUDDENDLY DISAPPEARED,

THEY HAD SEARCH HI AND LO,

WITH NO ANSWER TO FIND NEAR.

 

I SATARTED CRYING, CAUSE OF WHAT I’VE DONE,

I TRIED TO FIND THEM BUT THEY WHERE LONG GONE.

 

I STARTED LIVING ON MY OWN,

TRYING TO MAKE IT ALL ALONE,

I TRIED SO HARD WITHOUT NO ANSWER,

I STARTED FALLING DOWN THE ROAD.

 

IN MY POCKET LONG AWAITED,

I FOUND THE BOTTLE FROM ONCE I DRANKED,

THE ONE THAT MAKE ME MISERABLE,

COULD MAKE ME HAPPY AGAIN.

 

I WENT BACK TO WHERE ALL STARTED,

I BEGAN TO SEE THE SMALL LAND,

I SAW THE WIZARD THAT ONCE I KNEW,

AND I SAID GIVE ME MY LIFE BACK!

 

HE APOLOGIZE SINCERALY,

BUT NOT EVEN THE BIGGEST SPELL,

COULD EVER BRING IT BACK AGAIN,

HE OFFERED ME SOMETHING INSTEAD.

 

HE SAID: IF YOU WANT I CAN GIVE YOU THE SAME BREW,

YOU CAN COME HERE IF YOU WANT,

SOON YOU’LL FORGET WHY YOU’RE HERE.

 

I BEGAN TO UNDESTAND,

THAT I DIDN’T BELONG HERE,

BUT IN THE ONE HE LIVED INSTEAD.

 

I DRANK AGAING THE BOTTLE FULL,

I’VE COME BACK I SAID TO THEM!

BUT THIS TIME IT WAS FOR GOOD.

Rainy Day!

on a rainy day i sit,
waiting till the rain has stopped,
wondering of my own life,
wondering what i’ve become.

thinking it could all be fake,
not living the life i wanted,
crying of my own misery,
living by the people’s comments.

i was doing fine one day,
till this man change my body,
took my heart and mind away,
said good bye and then departed.

i stood up that same day,
release the pain i had inside,
change my mind, change my clothing,
i was reborned at that time.

i had a different life that day,
took another step in life,
grab my courage and pride,
from that day foward i felt alive!
