Writing my Day Away

Sitting at my desk, I let my fingers type furiously As I make progress towards my goals. I focus on my emails and correspondence As soon as I begin And then my poetry. I listen to music and the tapping of my keys Before transitioning to my novel. I allow myself to sink into theContinue reading “Writing my Day Away”

Being Creative

Drawing, writing, painting. I love working on art pieces That fills my heart with joy. Singing, sculpting, dancing. It is exciting to see what comes to life And brings a spark to my day. Being creative is relaxing and fun As I explore everything outside the box And have fun with my friends.

Playing With Dolls

My sister and I always played With our favourite dolls And explore on mini adventures. I enjoy the stress-free games And the feeling of not knowing What time is. Playing with dolls with my sister Was always a fun time And now I get to relive it with my stepsister.

Pictures

My best friend is a photographer and designer. I am a model and actress. We love helping each other with our skills Whenever we have a project to do. I model her clothing and merchandise While she takes photos of me and my work. It is such an easy workday Whenever we take photos andContinue reading “Pictures”

Memories of You

The photos captured the days we spent Exploring and travelling the world. I miss you more and more each day Since you left for a better time. I know you look down on me And witness these moments When I reminisce over everything We did as crazy teenagers.

Happy Moments

Seeing my friends rejoice Over their Christmas gifts Was super sweet. It was nice spending time As a group before things Became different soon. We were grateful for Our final moment Before moving states.

His Birthday

His birthday was different To what he had planned. Things changed immediately Before we had a chance To savour what we could. I feel terrible that I was Not there to celebrate His birthday with him But he told me that he’d Choose our night over the Extravagant party thrown Any other day.

Winter Breeze

The frosty morning And chilly days in winter Always wake me with a smile. I love walking to school In the winter breeze And feeling my mind relax. It is so calming before a day Filled with lectures and research Just like the sight of snow.

Designs

The spirals and swirls On the dresses and shirts Remind me of the clothes That my niece loves. She has always been a fan Of patterned clothes Whereas I preferred solids And neutrals in clothing. I smile as I grab a hat With sparkles and A giant pink ribbon bow For her seventh birthday.

Me Time

Whenever I have time to myself, I spend it doing the things I love. I write poems and stories and Read heart-warming books. I enjoy painting and colouring, Doodling kittens and tiny bunnies. I relish the shows and movies And indulge in my favourite treats. I love learning random facts Or finding my next favouriteContinue reading “Me Time”

Joyful Memories

Looking through the photos Of our friendship trips Was extremely bittersweet. We rarely have time for these vacations And it rips my heart out of my chest That we never make time for them anymore. Life has been full-on But these photos still capture The essence of our joyful memories.

Missing my Friends

I used to see them every day But since we parted ways For our futures, We have never been the same. I miss them each more each day And it pains my heart every passing second. I am happy that we’re following our dreams But I wish we didn’t lose contact Over those four years.Continue reading “Missing my Friends”

We’re Royalty

Growing up, I loved playing ‘Princesses’ And being called someone’s princess Made my heart flutter. I enjoyed the endearment And still do to this very day. But I also realised That everyone is a princess or prince In their unique way And that we’re all royalty.

Trip to the Museum

Visiting the art museums Are always such a blast! I love exploring and learning about the works And the masterpieces throughout history.

Childhood Books

Childhood books are always a joy to read Especially when going back in time To see what I grew up with. I love reading the early novellas And simple but effective picture books To fill my time. It is always nostalgic And extremely fun to take a trip Down memory lane with my childhood books.

Improving my Writing

Developing my writing skills Has been a whirlwind of a journey. I have learnt the “right” and “wrong” ways Of doing things in my work But I continue improving each day. I enjoy crafting characters and storylines As well as expressing myself through poetry. I love learning about my craft And strengthening my creativity. IContinue reading “Improving my Writing”

Languages

Growing up, I always loved learning languages. I enjoy writing, speaking, and listening In other languages other than English And exploring other cultures in our vast world. I have always been fascinated By how we connect with language But also, how it keeps us apart. It’s a bittersweet thing honestly. I remember wanting to learnContinue reading “Languages”

Forgotten

Tears attacked my eyes When I saw you with her. We were separated for four months And you showed no sign of boredom. But then, you were a different person Almost like a shell of the person I used to know But still love as a whole. You were no longer the same Once youContinue reading “Forgotten”

Browsing

Searching through stores, I admire the pretty stitching, fabrics, and laces. But none of them was the one I desired. I searched high and low For the perfect dress To wear on my wedding day. But alas, I still haven’t found “the one” That will make me feel beautiful On my special day.

Her Jewellery

Sorting through my jewellery box, I found the dainty pearls and gems That I loved to wear On these special occasions. I haven’t touched them in years. The last time I wore a piece Was before they parted ways With my parents and me. I held the delicate, elegant necklace In my hand, before shakingContinue reading “Her Jewellery”

Without You

Lying in bed up at night, My mind whirls as I try to sleep. The thoughts of you continue to pound And rattle my brain As I listen to the soundless night And the screeching harmonies Of my heartache. Being without you has been insane And it continues growing restless Every passing second. I amContinue reading “Without You”

Teardrops

Crying as I try to work out A heartbreaking assignment For my English Extension class. Writing a poem based on my heartbreak. Jotting my emotions and thoughts, They swirled around in my mind, Prancing and traumatising me As I breathed them out. This was too painful. I couldn’t do this. Tears flooded my eyes AndContinue reading “Teardrops”

Mistake

I didn’t know how to feel When everything came crashing down. I didn’t know what to do When I lost my life source. I didn’t know how to react When he said those words. I didn’t know how much he meant Before I lost him. I didn’t know how to breathe When he was gone.Continue reading “Mistake”

Royalty

Spending time with him Always made me feel like royalty. I was his princess And he was my prince. No one could replace Either one of us In our royal hearts And our royal minds. We were each other’s crown And each other’s guard. I was his princess And he was my prince.

Waiting

Counting down the days Until my friend’s birthday Felt exhilaratingly nerve-wracking. I loved spoiling, celebrating, honouring her Just like she did for me. Our birthdays were always our excuses To spend our energy, time, and money On each other Because we couldn’t feel as guilty. Waiting three hundred and sixty-five days Felt like doing aContinue reading “Waiting”

Damaged

The fear surrounds me, Capturing and holding my heart In a rush of anxiety. Hearing those frightful words, Ones I have not heard in four years, Tore my heart out of my chest.
