Why can't I write something
that makes people smile
maybe its because
I haven't in a while
not really at least
although it seems I'm happy
I'd like to write the truth
instead of something sappy
I'm sick of true Love
and happily ever after
real life is so different
it seems so much darker
nothing is perfect
or even seems that way
people hurting other people
children dieing every day
its not like we can help it
or its going to get better
it cant be done alone
theres too much to whether
kids smoking to be cool
because they want to be accepted
bringing guns to school
because no one ever expected
someone could hold so much
deep inside there heart
I'm sure they wanted to talk
but didn't even know where to start..
