Bees and the birds

by Bradley Peter   Oct 2, 2005


I am not an artist
I'm not a wizard with my words
I'm just a mere being
i speak of the bees and the birds

i speak of what i know
some would say that isn't much
for i am just a child
on this earth i barely touch

a teenager's life is no harder
than that of any other
always filled with confusion
of which we all wish to uncover

i pretend to the world
that for a child i am wise
but anyone can see the truth
and that is that i deal in lies

the average teen doesn't help
branding teens vandals
how do i prove to the world
that we don't all deal in scandals

i claim that I'm in love
I'm sure my statement is rejected
for i am inexperienced
and so should be protected

haven't lived so cannot speak
on questions about life
but would be urged to tell
about my pain and my strife

i not yet know real pain
as I'm sure many others do
for this i sympathize
for i know not what they go through

there was a time before me
and there will be time after
so if my words seems pointless
happily brush them off with laughter

so i am not an artist
I'm not a wizard with my words
I'm just a mere being
i speak only of the bees and the birds
