He Once Hated This World
i once met a boy, broken and scarred
just another tragic out turn
of a living a life much to hard
as a result, he hated the world
for leaving his fragile heart
crumbled and curled
he built the wall to divide
himself from this cold place
he built it far and wide
no one, is who he let in, despite his past
that his heart will once again
be shattered like glass
his heart was kept inside the wall
under lock and key
he thought for sure that they won’t fall
until then, along came a girl
who promised him
she won’t play with his heart like a toy
she said it was okay, and give me the key
let me have you’re heart boy
i know it won’t be easy
but at last, his walls crumbled down
he discovered that there was good in the world
it just had to be found
this boy, hated the world
until he found love
and his heart uncrumbled and uncurled
little mr. full of hate
finally found someone
to love and appreciate
this is the last chapter, i’ll tell of my friend
who hated the world
and wanted it to end
his heart had been stepped on and shoved
but really, all little mr. ‘ I Hate The World” needed
was just to be loved
