A metaphorical place ,my ZOO
A metaphorical place ,my ZOO
To truly ? be my friend
Come walk with me
Inside my Zoo
A metaphorical place
That embodies
The bitter , the sweet
My life of truth
Let me introduce , all these creatures
In my Zoo
Some will show ,their beauty
Others are only monster
Caged , from my days of abuse
Warning !!!
Please don’t feed these animals
Unless , my friendship
Is worth the danger to prove.
That fear over love
Won’t be a choice
You choose .
So lets walk some more
There are others creatures
To view
Like my birds of dreams
And the
Monkeys made of my humor
Playing in the trees .
Elephants are a
Source of strength
A foundation for
My reasoning .
Also the mouse
His common sense of seeing.
There are so many more of
These creatures
That are my metaphors
So enter with care , and be warned
My heart will take your ticket at the door
To truly ? be my friend
Come walk with me
Inside my Zoo
A metaphorical place
That embodies
The bitter , the sweet
My life of truth
Let me introduce , all these creatures
In my Zoo
Some will show ,their beauty
Others are only monster
Caged , from my days of abuse
Warning !!!
Please don’t feed these animals
Unless , my friendship
Is worth the danger to prove.
That fear over love
Won’t be a choice
You choose .
So lets walk some more
There are others creatures
To view
Like my birds of dreams
And the
Monkeys made of my humor
Playing in the trees .
Elephants are a
Source of strength
A foundation for
My reasoning .
Also the mouse
His common sense of seeing.
There are so many more of
These creatures
That are my metaphors
So enter with care , and be warned
My heart will take your ticket at the door
