Aweful Things Make the Awesome Things Shine


Awful things keep happening 

Worry fills all of my bones

Edgy around things that are unknown

Subdued because of scary things

Outcast like the hole in the ozone

Morose pours out for the things known

Enmeshed with all the mixed feelings

Magnificently shinning like a gemstone

Optimistic when the new seeds are sown

Saucy flavors is what I'm tasting

Excited about sitting in the throne

Wonderful things are being shown

Awesome is in everything
