Nothing much to say about this - written when I was 13.
Peaceful journey
If life was to be a peaceful journey,
Why is there so much pain.
If life was to be a peaceful journey,
The clouds are rumbling in the heavens,
The rain is lashing down,
Upon an innocent child’s face,
There lies an awkward frown.
They’re waiting for an answer,
Do you really want to know?
The stars will glisten in the night,
The nightmares, they will come,
He’ll scratch and burn and scream in pain,
Nothing will make him numb.
If life was to be a peaceful journey –
If life was to be a peaceful journey –
There’s nothing there to gain.
