"Run Away"
Run, run, run away.
Run away for it’s just begun.
Nothing is left to learn; nothing can be done.
Run away and never return.
Don't let it burn just,
Run, run, run away.
Don't confront the fears.
Run away and leave the tears.
Don't retreat.
It'll show defeat, so just,
Run, run, run away
"Life"
So much anger; so much sadness.
How'd I get myself wound up in all this madness?
To much stress; to much drama.
How do I clear up this mess?
So many tears; so little fears.
It's been like this for years.
Just young; trying to have fun.
Not many smiles; not many dreams.
All I hear are distant screams.
Lot's of fights; including sleepless night.
I'm trying...
But there's so much lying; so much crying...
"I am"
People say I'm a sinner.
But I'm just a beginner.
Yea, I've done some things wrong.
But that's what makes me strong,
I take life for how it is.
I live my life around the people I adore.
I am who I am; why do they care?
Why do they always sit and stare?
I know I'm not the worst,
But I am the first to stand up and say,
I am who I am.
- Are these any good? Be honest please!! And if you don't like them or would change something about them tell me!

JenSparkles answered Monday June 21 2004, 5:59 pm: First thing's first: COPYRIGHT THEM!!!! NOW!!! Just put the little copyright symbol somewhere on here and the date and your name/ nickname/forum name, and nobody can legally take them.
Now, I really like both of them. ^_^ "Life" is my favorite. I think it's the most original; it is brilliant.
On "Life" and "I am," watch your punctuation. All the semi-colons tend to get in the way and distract the reader. Other than that, I really like them! If you want help getting published, contact me. [ JenSparkles's advice column | Ask JenSparkles A Question ]
