To My Dearest Friend

I think that it's time to say goodbye,
Yes, you've been with me for years now
But I think that I need to be strong and let go,
Though it'll be hard-going without you.

You've always been there for me,
You caught my broken-hearted tears
And comforted me when I was down,
You never cared that I hugged you too tight.

Only you understand my fear of the night,
You've heard me whimper when I held you close,
Like a night guard you've protected me,
I fear no goblins or monsters when you're around.

But I'm getting older now,
I'm moving out into the great wide world,
I'll miss you more than I can say,
But I have to fight my own battles now.

Farewell, Teddy Bear.

Ode to my Air Conditioner

In tropical climates air conditioners are a must have :D

The sweat drips down my sad face,
The day is hot and sticky,
My feet drag at a slow pace,
I’m so tired and icky!

I stumble into my room,
Feeling like roasted mutton,
The heat is oppressive doom,
I press that magic button.

Oh, Air Con! I feel that breeze!
Your cool air lifts my spirit,
You put me at instant ease,
The heat, you do not fear it.

When humidity rises
And the sun scorches the ground,
Whatever the degree is
You will always be around.

Sometimes I doubt your power,
Sometimes coolness goes unfelt,
But faithful to the hour,
You will never let me melt!

Oh, Air Con! I need you please!
Your powers I’ll never doubt!
For it’s me the heat will seize
Unless you wrestle it out.

Oh, Air Con! You are supreme!
You’re much better than the fan,
To say “not” would be blaspheme!
You’re better than any man.

My Name Was Written in the Sand

My name was written in the sand,
I put it there with my big toe,
And then I stood upon the land,
And watched the white waves grow.

I stood there and I watched the tide
As it crept silent up the beach,
And no one heard me as I cried
For I was out of reach.

I looked upon my fading name
As it was eaten by the sea,
I smiled as I soon became
Someone other than me.

I waved goodbye to other self,
Cuz to my heart I must be true,
I put my old life on the shelf
As I began anew.

My name was written in the sand,
But permanence is an old lie,
Earth moves around me as I stand,
And time passes me by.
