Am I Good Enough

Am I good enough?
I ask that very often
I can handle it, I’m tough
As my heart softens

I feel amorousness
About her, yes her
My friends act with kindness
They say it’s okay, it’s all a blur

Am I good enough?
She says that I am
I say that’s just a bluff
I ask really, am I?

When I get home
I sleep on it
As I stare at my garden gnome
I asked myself if I should just quit

But I don’t ‘cause she’s my angel
Some say stop dreaming
As I feel shameful
I start cleaning

Am I really?
It may sound rough
I think I’m just being silly
But am I good enough?

Stand on my tip toes,
I try to be taller than your demons,
So I can scare you away!

Where Is My Love ?

0
by Farah Karim aged 10

Said you’d return but you never did,
Left me alone when I was just a kid.
You’d sing me a song so I’d fall asleep,
You are gone, so I always cry and weep.

Said you’d never leave, look at my face,
Ever since, my brain is too lost in space.
I really loved you and you left me to go,
Now you left my soul as dark as a crow.

Sit at night as tears roll down my cheek,
And everyone at school thinks I’m a freak.
What did I do to receive no love from you,
Do I look like someone you never knew?

I loved you for life, what was the reason?
Every single year is my crying season.
What did I do to not have your true love?
Am I a toy that you could push and shove?

You had to go but I need to know why,
You’re so happy but I just want to cry.

Why Why Why

I don’t really know why
But when the sun shines it always makes me high

And when you laugh it always sends me shivers
It always makes me quiver

I don’t know why I have this feeling in my heart
It makes me feel that we will always be apart

Sun & Moon

Ever been in love with moon?
Far… As December and June.
Saying “I will see you soon”,
Waiting, past the noon…

Waiting, waiting, waiting…
Laughing, loving, crying.
My Moon so far away…
Wondering… astray.

Promised to reach you, one day,
Holding thy hand and pray,
That time will stop and say,
I and you will stay,
Together,
Forever,
And ever.

Love is Cruel

Love is cruel
Don’t take it for granted
Or you might get sad
People sometimes cheat
With someone else they meet

Don’t be sad and don’t get mad
Love is cruel
That’s just the way it works

You are so yellow
You are so pretty
I watch you on TV
Your name is The Simpsons
And I love you so much
I hope to be you
Thank you so much

Your Love

Your love for me
Was like a candle:
It burned
And burned
Until there was nothing left.

Your love for me
Was like a flower:
Eventually,
After all its beauty,
It had to die.
