Under the sea there’s colourful coral,
Under the sea there’s a life full of creatures,
Under the sea is where wishes come true,
Under the sea is where I can talk to you.
In a green green land
on the grass of the hills
lived a green butterfly
with not a single friend
All things are green
according to the butterfly called Nils
She was a lonely thing with lonely wings
Life of a turtle is very, very slow,
life of a cheetah is really fast,
life of a dolphin is very long,
life of a squirrel is short,
life of a badger is very rough,
life of a wolf is very easy,
and my life is amazing.
At night my mum reads me a story,
At night my mum makes me a glass of milk
At night my mum tucks me up nice and warm
At night I dream what the next day will be like.
I glance at the figure next to me
Still and lifeless, limp like a doll
Can’t bear to look at his dull, emotionless eyes
It hurts to think about
That gaping hole in my heart
Bitter taste of bile in my mouth
And my head spins giddily
Every part of my body aching
My jaw burns
As I try to hold back tears
And I force myself to look at him again
And I hope
That he is at peace
And I know
That one day, I will join him
Once there was a snowball
I picked it up to throw
but i felt very sad
so took the snowball inside
I made it my new friend
but when the sun came out
it started to melt
so when it did melt
I was very sad
so I made my own snowball
out of paper
