The Good Times

Remember when we played outside as children? We didn’t have worry in the world back then Remember getting our first bike and learning how to ride? And removing the training wheels and falling on our hides Remember when you scored the highest grade in school? And everyone was annoyed because you thought you were cool? What about the adventures with our closest friends? These are the memories that stay with us till the end Remember when you got in to that sports team? And you were so excited that your eyes would gleam? How about that feeling when your crush first spoke to you? And you were standing there speechless, not knowing what to do Getting their number was the biggest win and it stood alone But the scariest thing was actually picking up the phone Asking them out was another that thing that made our hearts race If they said “yes” you’d freeze in disbelief and fall flat on your face The next step was the drivers license, didn’t that take us far? N...

Not Good Enough

We’ve all heard it all before, “You’re just not good enough” “You’re not qualified enough” “You’re not skilled enough” "You're not good looking enough" "You're not fit enough" For that girl, boy or that promotion For that sports team or for that degree These words are so powerful they ruin us When in reality they should inspire They should fuel the fire in our hearts “What do I have to do to get there?” The simple answer is believe in yourself Because only you can fight the pain Only you can keep pushing through And only you can prove to yourself That you truly are good enough

Dreamer

I dream of a world where we all get along, A world where people know right from wrong Where there is unity without hate, And humanity would change the world’s fate I dream of a world that accepts those for all they are Where lifestyles don’t matter and love ruled by far A world where religion didn’t divide people at all And where the good in people prevailed and evil would fall I dream of a world where there was only one race Where people get along despite the colour of their face A world without selfish people and prejudice failed And people respected each other and nobody bailed I dream of a world where women aren’t objectified Where our mothers, sisters and daughters are glorified A world where people stood up against abuse and rape And where justice prevails and evildoers see no escape I dream of a world where human and animal lived as one Where profit was based on hard work and not stolen by a g...

Humanity

How did humanity manage to stray so far? Why can’t we understand that one simple truth? That we are all human, same skin, bone and hair To change this world, we need to start with the youth We have politicians who live to turn things sour They curse and destroy peoples lives at will They're driven by greed, money and power If only they worked for the people and not make them ill Then, we have terrorists who kill in the name of god Driven by the propaganda of an unjust hatred Complemented by racists and supremacists whose leaders are all frauds They need to be taught right & wrong before they end up dead There are also those who call themselves men in vain Rapists, abusers, thieves and murderers just to name a few On the underwear of humanity, these people are a stain The saddest part of all this, is that its nothing new Is this really the world we should proudly call home? A world where innocent blood is spilled so easily? U...

Nice guys finish last

Everyone wants to be the good guy or the hero, although sometimes it might not be right, sometimes its being the one nobody cares about, the one who everyone steps on and uses at work, the one who never has good luck with relationships the one who is always the third wheel, the chaperon, the one who hold's the door open for everyone the one who sometimes feels being alone, is best  seldom does being the good guy actually mean anything he's the guy that sits at the bar all by his lonesome, the broody one, who his friends always complain about but no one approaches because he looks like an outcast the shy one who doesn't know what to say to the girl he likes the one who loses out to the guy with deep pockets, good looks, broad shoulders and a six pack the one who walks away and disappears without a trace the one who gets left behind, because he doesn't play politics he's the honest one and oddly the lonely one, the recluse, whose bes...
