your vision, your voice
I look out of the window and see
The world doesn’t look how it used to be
It’s clear and white
So I put on my warm boots and rush
outside on my pathway
there is ice on my pathway
These is the tiniest bit of snow.
I have a pond in a bucket, it’s frozen and thick.
Throughout the day the ice melted and so did the snow
but the lily pond stayed frozen.
Also as my friend told me
It might freeze again tonight.
So maybe Just maybe
I can wake up
and I will see the snow
and ice again.
In the front yard I cartwheel
and dance and feel the morning dew.
My feet get soaking wet.
With every step I take
my feet get colder and wetter.
I could just go inside the warm warm house
but I won’t
because when I come inside
I won’t get to do this again for a long time
So I will keep on cartwheeling and dancing.
me ahead of the group
me who gets there first
me me me
me who makes everything right
But why I wonder why is it always me?
Why can’t others be
the ones ahead of the group, who gets there first?
Why can’t others make everything right?
My little sister, the cutest little brat
She knows she’s “the boss” and that is that!
Yelling, screaming, drama queening
No matter what, she’s got “her” plan!
Stars shimmer above my head.
Mother sends me off to bed.
I close my eyes,
Dream of starry skies.
Beautiful flowers,
Away fly the hours.
I’m running fast.
Free at last.

Darkness
Pooling around my feet.
Filling the empty space.
I can see nothing,
Hear nothing.
Silences.
Unbroken forever more.
No sound,
No sound at all.
Fear.
Clutching me in its cold grasp.
Nothing.
Nothing at all.
Cold and gripping.
They restrained me,
They held me back.
They dug into my wrists,
They pained my ankles.
They kept me locked away.
Chains.
Horrible, awful chains.
They guard me day and night.
Strong and sturdy,
Cold and gripping.
An old leather cover,
Yellow pages.
Crinkles & wrinkles,
Every time I turn the page.
Words jump out.
Pictures pop
I see it.
Playing over in my mind.
I turn the last page.
The cover.
The end.
Let’s have some fun!
But there isn’t anything fun to do.
Swimming is fun.
We can make dresses that look like the moon and sun.
We can look at bugs.What kind of bugs?
Ladybugs and butterflies too.
We can wear one shoe. We can eat pizza for breakfast. We can meet Taylor Swift. We can go to a petting zoo. It’s raining!
We can jump around in puddles. We can walk our dog. We can color with markers too.
I don’t really care as long as I’m with you!.
Life is lived
Life is given
Life is also gotten
Sometimes even forgotten
You live life
You give live
You get life
Even forget life
Hey look here comes one
Other life right now!
