Lies
Xero083 2004
There is so much to be happy about!
The gentle breeze,
The warm sun,
Staying inside because you have grown to never feel safe.
So much positive influences around me!
The noble fire fighters,
The helpful teachers,
And the constant murders and kidnappings.
So much fun in the world!
Your friends playing in the park,
Them asking you to join in,
Saying no because you know the answer you’re mother will say.
Nobody likes a person who lies!
Which is why there is none.
