2 Nothing is as it Seems Backwards, vile, secretive, debased. Nothing is as it seems Laugh on the outside, scream on the inside Love in the corner, but hate in open view. Nothing is as it seems. Everyone is cordial, yet nothing kind is said The vibe of discomfort and secrets lie in the air. Nothing is as it seems. Smile to the face, snarl to the back. Everything had double meaning Nothing is as it seems. Katie Kile Bernice Valdes
3 Untitled You mean everything to me You are my life—my world You are my reason for living—for breathing I love you and I’m sorry I can’t always be there I’m sorry I’m not around to see All the cute little things you do To see all the bad things So I can tell you not to There’s so many things I’m missing And I miss you every day I wish I could make things better Make all of this just go away I’m sorry for so many things I just can’t explain Things you aren’t old enough to understand Things I hope you will one day When you become a man Every single thing I do is for you Even if sometimes it’s hard to believe To give you a better life that I had Even if—just for a little while you don’t You are the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen Even still it takes my breath away—just to look at you You are priceless—you are part of me You are truly the most precious gift I have ever received I love you and I’m sorry For not being there.

Nothing is as it Seems<br />
Backwards, vile, secretive, debased.<br />
Nothing is as it seems<br />
Laugh on the outside, scream on the inside<br />
Love in the corner, but hate in open view.<br />
Nothing is as it seems.<br />
Everyone is cordial, yet nothing kind is said<br />
The vibe of discomfort and secrets lie in the air.<br />
Nothing is as it seems.<br />
Smile to the face, snarl to the back.<br />
Everything had double meaning<br />
Nothing is as it seems.<br />
