Day Off

Reading through my poems
Cole's working on his art
Kai and Lloyd are versing each other
On our game 'Mario Kart'

Zane is in the kitchen
Doing what he does best
Though I haven't seen Pixal or Nya
I just hope they're having a rest

We've been a bit stressed lately
What with everything going on
From evil dudes to monsters
It's a wonder we're still going strong

And then there are the secrets
We try not to share
Not because we don't want to
But because it's too much to bear

Okay, I bared my soul
A little unwillingly I admit
But it seems to have helped me
Maybe just a little bit

But Zane is clearly troubled
By what he was forced to do
I can see it in his eyes
They're not as bright a blue

Can't forget Kai and Lloyd
They've had concerns themselves
Like having your powers drained from you
Oh the strength they've had to delve

Nya's been hurting too
Although we can't tell why
Her powers are going haywire
There's sometimes a tear in her eye

I know this because I've seen her
Hiding from the rest of us
She's trying to control herself
Yet we try not to make a fuss

But as I sit here thinking
Of what to write or say
I notice Cole has stopped painting
And moved his brush away

His memories must have plagued him
He's done three artworks so far
Of baby Wu and his mother
And strangely me as a rockstar

He's just finished the one of me
I'm dancing with Nya
We're in that dance competition
Back in Prime Empire

Yes we have a lot on our minds
So we have the day off
To process all that's happened
Man it's good to just stop
