so here I am writing
mom would be proud
i asked and begged
just one children's book
maybe some help
love carries a stigma
just ask my lovely last
I gave a heart that many need
now I bleed

just how does that hurt
can I just return
and what again are the perks
forgive you if I seem involved
but again too many are starved
right here, and once again

how many poor children saw
and askedwhy
how many explained
and how many lost
the draw

I still say the moon rules mmore than the tide
people need to take
there's something deep inside
while the chance is in its stake

I was hopefully bread
I was strangely raised

now I only hope to be read
in our strangely raised days
maybe just to get a look
and finally write that book

nice storyline---well done

There is society where none intrudes, by the deep sea, and music in its roar.
