Can you feel that poem

SLOW DANCEHave you ever watched kidsOn a merry-go-roundOr listened to the rainSlapping on the ground?Ever followed a butterfly's erratic flight?Or gazed at the sun into the fading night?You better slow down.Don't dance so fast.Time is shortThe music won't lastDo you run through each day On the fly?When you ask How are you?Do you hear the reply?When the day is doneDo you lie in your bedWith the next hundred choresRunning through your headYou'd better slow downDon't dance so fast.Time is short.The

Be a Friend

Be a friend. You don't need money;Just a disposition sunny;Just the wish to help anotherGet along some way or other;Just a kindly hand extendedOut to one who's unbefriended;Just the will to give or lend,This will make you someone's friend.Be a friend. You don't need glory.Friendship is a simple story.Pass by trifling errors blindly,Gaze on honest effort kindly,Cheer the youth who's bravely trying,Pity him who's sadly sighing;Just a little labor spendOn the duties of a friend.Be a friend. The pay

His Own World

He’s head is spinning in a circleThe walls in his room is closing down on himHe’s holding his breath, his hands are shakingHe’s aware of his own shadowAfraid yet not screaming nor tremblingAl these things that came to scare othersDrawn him closer into a burning flameA fire so fierce it pierces his eyes to darkHis hearts empty there’s nothing leftHe walks down the streets with his head bowedDown to the earth not taking noticeBlood is dripping from his eyes as he looksUp a raindrop falls on his fo
