Analysis of Less

Shanna Marie 1981 (Bowling green ky)



It does not make sense...
All of the relentless thoughts my mind creates
Nor does it feel anywhere near good
As within itself it debates,
About the many things that are misunderstood.
Never have I been so sure
Just like I  have never felt real love
It is the only true anything to me that is pure
A hint of positivity we can touch from above
Again, no sense at all do I make
As for nothing ordinary strikes my interest
So in this world you shall never take
Everything within us we should never break
For it is the mighty one we will follow and it is our soul he will take
To the Heavens for eternity with an endless love between us all
