I may be young but have seen a lot - trust me, I have
I've seen rainbows and sunshine
Brightness and happy times
A world filled with beauty and all
I've seen rainbows with jackpots
Unicorns on the hilltops
But I saw that through a TV screen
But when my mum told me to do homework, all those sights disappeared
A bomb to nearly explode
A volcano due to erupt
And a mum - simply looking for bread
Amidst this chaos - a word I wish I hadn't seen stood out - T R U T H
I wish I saw this with my eyes, oh how I truly wish
That way, I could prove it a lie but now - I cannot
How can one prove their heart wrong?
After all, they tend to call me blind
