Point

The smell of fabric softener, It isn’t a high, It isn’t a summer breeze. The end of days, Isn’t the end of the world, But the sky during sunset. Effects aren’t special, They’ll just be done, Over and over again. Life is absolute, In a fleeting glance, Of how many days. Love isn’t forever, Unless the family left behind, Prospers in the ancestors shadows. Anything with more than 4 legs, Isn’t creepy except, From the point of view of an amoeba.

Being a child is so easy, Kids will be kids, They play and they laugh, No affairs or loves. School, A place for learning, About life and knowledge, The first crush. A little cute girl, As innocent as yourself, Standing there in the light, She catches your eye and you're taken. Time goes by, Spent looking at the this apple, Only for your eyes, Such a wonderful time. You both grow a little older, School becomes mature, A school dance is here, Now is your time to shine. A deep breath, Your first step, Confidence is spilling over, Ask her, ask her. No. Simple and straight forward, Like a jab to the jaw, But a pain that doesn't subside. The first needle into the heart, Pierced in through the skin, Dug deep enough to stay, Afraid to pull it out. A sad time to overcome, After so much time, Thinking of how gre
