Why
By: Genna Melanson
You ever wonder why the sky is blue?
Why do bees like to buzz, why do birds like to sing?
O’ how many answers could these two questions bring?
Why does spring follow summer?
Why do leaves turn brown in the winter?
Why are we the way we are?
Why does the night sky have stars?
Why is it that we know what happens and how!
But why?
There must be a reason for everyone and everything.
I don’t know, do you?
So many questions without explanations.
Then if I don’t know and you don’t know, who else knows what up.
There must be a reason why we even exist!
Stand Up and Change the World
By: Genna Melanson
Walk into a whole new world now, time to put my guard down.
People coming and going, trying to stay busy, finding your way can sure make you feel dizzy.
I am staring straight ahead looking at their faces, bringing myself to think who are they really? Most importantly what do these people expect from me?
Do these people expect me to get good grades?
Do these people expect me just to stay out of their way?
Oh is this just another huge mistake, to think things could ever change?
Walk into a whole new world now, time to put my guard down.
People coming and going, trying to stay busy, finding your way can sure make you feel dizzy.
Time seems to stay still, even though time seems to keep on going.
Your outside stays the same, however your inside keeps on forming.
Watching your reflection in the mirror staring back at you.
Feeling like you don’t have clue on what to do.
Walk into a whole new world now, time to put my guard down.
People coming and going, trying to stay busy, finding your way can sure make you feel dizzy.
You want to change the world, but you just don’t how, sometimes you just want to scream.
But instead you stand up and say, ooh, ohh no way, ohh, ohh no way!
I am going to be strong today, and chase those shadows away.
Because I have a right to stay, and no one has the right to change your mind.
You’re going to prove myself and to your no-sayers in your own time.
Walk into whole new world now, time to put my guard down.
People coming and going, trying to stay busy, finding your way can sure make you feel dizzy.
But you.. you can say.. say ohh no way, no way! Stand up, stand up and say..
I am going to be strong today, and chase those shadows away.
And prove to you I am going to change this world someday.
In the Eyes of a Journey
By: Genna Melanson
Once a upon a day you came into this world as a baby.
Where your life consist of 1,2,3 and ABC’s.
Your journey is just beginning.
You must learn to crawl before you can walk.
You must learn to stand before you fall.
So when you fall just get right back up.
Trust yourself to the first steps, because those first steps can show you that you are strong.
Believe in yourself because this is the journey the gluided path you are supoosed to be on.
You must walk before you can run.
The people that love you can give you the strength, when all hope is lost.
When you take risks you take a leap, into whatever dreams you might see.
Take a hold of the ruins and don’t you let go.
You must learn to run before you take flight.
Show this world that you’re someone worth watching out far.
Trust your instances, the lessons that people have given you.
Trust yourself to the first steps, because those first steps can show you that you are strong.
Believe in yourself because this is the journey the guided path you are supposed to be on.
Always show people that you love them, try to tell them every signal day.
Pay it forward, show them the way.
Gluide those on their journey as so many people did for you.
Tell them that there is a path just waiting for you.
When you come to the end of your life, may there still be nothing you hold back.
May there always be a handprint/footprint over those who you shown their way.
May your journey always continue on when you pass away.
