Music – Issy's Writing Wonderland

Performing

Performing my assessment piece in Music Was always extremely nerve-wracking. I feel my bones shaking And my mind running.

It was a tough journey And now my hard work Lies within their earsContinue reading “Performing”

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.

To You

I’ve never felt this way before, But something about the way you talk, It was so different from before, Like you didn’t even know how to walk.

Jealous

I see you walking with her. The quiet laughter – I wonder. Sometimes I feel invisible, No longer feeling invincible. It’s like your attention is all on her. It’s like your focus is never leaving her.
