Poems from Shirif
Like light beams down a dark hall
My friends beckon
Like a ball and chain
My mom keeps me back
Can't I have a nice childhood
Without my...
One tear running down my cheek
Too bad my dreams are just out of reach
Just living one day at a time
Many things to do while in my prime...
If my life was perfect
I would have no need for you
But it was nowhere close
And you made that dream come true
I never would have thought...
If your house is on fire, what would you save?
What (or who) would allow you to be brave?
If my life was on the line,
I'd be sure to grab...
Music and laughter
Smiles and ever afters
So magical and oh so right
Books and computers
Flowers and scooters
And family and friends...
