Poems! So yeah, this is now my second entry. And I'm just bored, so let's post poems that I did in my English classes! (Tbh [Short for 'to be honest' for those who don't know), I'm actually writing a fanfic right now. I should be doing that instead of this but yeah...) This one's title is "A 5 centimeter piece of hope" They're called lucky, these stars out of papers A past time for me Also for some past makers With every fold every crease A story is told Hopelessness seized Legend has it That a thousand of these Let's you meet A single wish "These are for children," That's what people say But for some men and women These are not for play "Paper prayers," are what they could be called Strips and layers Of paper folds People perceived that these are for fun But no, hope is received By each one Whether it be paper, people or rocks, stars shine brighter when in the dark. And then there's another one that I left incomplete back in junior year but finished this senior year. This one doesn't have a title. 16 years old, I had a dream At first it was cold but not what it seems I saw somebody A person I knew as I came closer, the silhouette grew Within a dream, seems impossible to do but it happened to me (that's all I knew) Looking at a mirror that's what it seemed (But then it started to talk, just not with me "What strives you to live," As she opened her mouth That's when I thought to myself "Hmmm, what is life about?" My doppelganger gave me time to think But as the answer comes closer she begins to sink "Wait, wait," I said, "Don't you want my answer?" She just shook her head And she began to disappear faster I woke up with a gasp sat upright under the moon's light with my left chest clasped I looked like I got caught in a fight I went back to sleep dream nagging at the back of my head still trying to peep maybe it's under my bed? Seconds, minutes and hours pass by Asleep, I was as quiet as a fly But my head was swirling with theories found, all about the dream I had but this time around it wasn't that bad. Because then I knew, that whatever life, at me, threw one thing always grew: "I strive to live, to make my dreams come true.") The ones in parentheses are ones I did this year. Yeah, enjoy? LMAO
