The convict had a hard life. They probably never meant to do a crime. They were probably desperate. They would have to survive A six-month journey Across the sea With the chief. To plead Would be a crazy idea. It would never work And all they will receive in return Is trouble climbing up theirContinue reading “Convicts”

Scare
The raid outside my city Was a scary experience Especially when I was trying to concentrate on studying.
Shopping Spree
I love the new bow at the boutique And the best part is that there is a discount. I purchase the bow and I feel like I should reinforce my spending As a result of my shopping spree.
Building
When I build a foundation, I usually choose concrete because the gravel is strong. This is helpful especially when I put my foot on top to check.
Heaven
The shadow of hay Glimmers across the spring fieldFor our dear loved God.
Nobility
You know that noble people are well-mannered. You know that noble people wouldn’t belt you. But do you wonder if a noble person would point their finger at you because you made a mistake?
Time to Go Vegetarian
Today I decided That I would become a vegetarian. I say no to the bacon in the fridge. “That’s for my husband, not me.” I glide graciously Across the floor Ready for a delicious breakfast Of my favourite eggless French toast.
If the Wars Never Existed
Have you ever wondered What the world would be like If there were never any wars? Have you ever wondered What the world would be like If the rifle was never a thing? Have you ever wondered What the world would be like If the missile was never created? Sometimes I wish These weren’t partContinue reading “If the Wars Never Existed”
Beliefs
Sometimes I feel out of place Because my tradition and faith don’t align with others. But that’s okay Because it makes me unique.
Keep It Up
If you ever wanted to collapse After a long day of productive work Then I agree That it’s the best feeling. If you ever wanted to be indoors After a hot sweaty day Then I agree That it’s the best feeling. If you ever wanted to give up Because it’s too hard Then I agreeContinue reading “Keep It Up”
My Perfect World
I have the perfect ideology Built inside my head. It gives me comfort To watch my world Become what one day will be our reality.
Trap
The reliance on my job Is defined by my parameter Which absorb my energy And pushes me down.
Inspiration Stop
I love doing art. It calms me down And sends my mind to ease. I sip my lemon water As I paint with colours, Vibrant and bold. Then inspiration strikes And I see my iron Reminding me of my laundry.
My Tedious Life
I lay on the bed Staring up at the dome window Into space. The next day, I walk into the library And borrow my books for class. Apathy feels my heart As I have nothing to do And this is my tedious life, day in and day out.
Soap
Tell me I’m crazy, But I really love the soap Sold at the city. The beautiful bubbles Swimming in the water And blowing the sweet fragrance around. I am moving to the city But not for other opportunities. I’m moving to the city to be closer to my favourite soap.
Helping
As a citizen of the community, There is a need to refer someone To seek out help at times. It’s the hardest thing to do sometimes as well. It needs to be conventional as well For them to discuss Openly with trust And no fear of any harm. The community needs to stay safe AndContinue reading “Helping”
Realisation
I live by the harbour Never with the realisation Of how hard life may be in gaol Because it never crossed my mind. But now that I lost all my friends And I’m isolated, I realise that this is my gaol In a whole other context.
My Boyfriend’s Perfect Gift
What should his present be? He gave me a budget But it’s too cheap. I can never find the perfect gift. I walk around the store In search of a gift For my lovely boyfriend. I see the water guns all laid out in front of me. An idea strikes. He’s a kid at heart.Continue reading “My Boyfriend’s Perfect Gift”
Morning Walk
The leaf falls as ITake my morning walk to theConference I dread.
Isolation
The wheel spins Round and round Like the distort pain In my stomach. I ride the bus every day Only to arrive at the most unloved place. School. I can’t speak my native tongue. I can’t speak the language we learn. I can’t speak to anyone. It’s a trap to me. A death trap waitingContinue reading “Isolation”
Mistake
Sometimes I wished I never transferred schools Because the transfer was a horrid idea. Sometimes I wished I never skipped classes Because I had to skip to avoid school drama. Sometimes I wished I never had a meal Because the meals are revolting. I hate this place. Why did I choose to transfer? It wasContinue reading “Mistake”
Flu Season
I cannot believe The time of year. Flu season. I hate this season way more than I hate spring. I wish that a ban would be possible On this horrible season of the year. It interrupts my fame When I cannot act Without getting snot All over my face, Hair and hands. I hate fluContinue reading “Flu Season”
My Interesting Dinner
As I walk down the halls Of the empty room, I think to myself What I should cook for dinner. It isn’t easy As I love to have the same old pasta every night But I want a change To the usual meal. I open the fridge To find some fish bait and broccoli. BroccoliContinue reading “My Interesting Dinner”
Salads
The grind of the pepper and salt Seasons the salad, But irritates my eye As the seasoning flies around the room.
The Snail’s Journey
The snail brings A new sense of life Along with it As it threads the wool Through the calm forest. I watch it tread Through the long grassy gardens Full of calm, waiting for the beautiful world to awaken.
Cravings
Walking down to the market, Allows me to feel the fresh air Blowing my hair In the cool breeze. I search through the retailer That I love purchasing my clothes, Accessories and shoes from. But then, I crave for something tasty. I want something mouth-watering, Luscious, soft, and tender. I want something delicious, Delectable, heavenly,Continue reading “Cravings”
A Leader
A noble man runs for the presidency. He practices his speech over and over again In preparation for the big day. He anticipates his chances Which are never high. This lowers his self-esteem and confidence, Drowning him inside his bubble Deeper than the depths of the oceans. But the day arrives as swiftly as everContinue reading “A Leader”
Network
The node of the network Directs everything around. It keeps the world running And never in destruction. My brother’s reptile toy Would never function If the network died down. So, please fairies, Grant me my only wish. Keep the network strong To save all humanity From an ear-deafening scream.
It’s for a Good Cause
The smell of the banquet Flew out the doors And into the gardens. The garlic in the meals Left the kitchen in a vicious smell Of stinky socks. But at least it’s for a good cause. The meal will raise money, awareness and help. It’ll provide a foundation That will help others in desperate need.Continue reading “It’s for a Good Cause”
My First Day of College
The huge building of my college Sends a chill down my spine. This monumental building would be my home For the next couple of years. I enter the room To witness anxious students Waiting for the class To commence. I remind myself why I’m here once again. Design. Create. Learn to be free.
