Sweet
By: Cheyenne Taylor Age: 11 ½ issued: March 8, 2003

I never tried to go lower than I thought I could.
Cause life was too high up to be brought down.
Years went by
trying to strive
and love flowed throughout.
And then the day came
when I was forced to go astray
and I was brought down.
The empire that had been constructed and gotten so high
was totally destroyed
and everything around me died.
And when I take a look at things
Things I used to have.
Love, joy, and happiness.
But some of it is still alive.
My life is
Sugar-sweet
Bitter-sweet
As close to sweet as you can get
And no farther from it than you can go
So sweet
So opposite
So what am I supposed to do
If he hadn't become a movie star
Then I would have gotten much father
It didn't make sense I know
But now I fear I'm lower than I can go
Come back to me
I need someone
To save me from me
And him and everyone else
Who doesn't help
My life is
Sugar-sweet
Bitter-sweet
As close to sweet as you can get
And no farther from it than you can go
So sweet
So opposite
So what am I supposed to do
I will try and I will die
But until then I'll live
All this will either make me stronger
Make me last longer
Or waste me away
Sweet isn't supposed to be
Compatible with me.
My life is
Sugar-sweet
Bitter-sweet
As close to sweet as you can get
And no farther from it than you can go
So sweet
So opposite
So what am I supposed to do
What do I do
To get away from you
What do I do
