Poetry

        Poetry is a unique genre of writing. It's always enlightened and inspires everyone one of us. Every line has powerful meaning yet we often missed or ignored it. Poetry is not all about word but also it describes who we are and what we are now. Therefore, I believe poetry is in all of us. But it just depends on us how we will use it. This poetry that I made comes from my childhood experienced. I've been through lot of things, I went to different places but I cannot find my true self. People might think that I am just an ordinary kid who just wants to travel and have some fun. You have all the things you have family, good friends and good health and yet there still apart of you is missing. I tried myself to ignore it, maybe it's just my imagination but as the challenges, struggles in life start to appear to me I became different. I always depending on my parents but one day I became independent. I learned that in life you have to be on your own and not let others step or trespass your boundary. The day when my mother left us I was devastated the fact that you have someone to call a mother but no longer near or there for you. Despite of losing love one and became different person I did not expected to be different again. My families; in the community, church, school and also my own family made me a better person. Therefore, I dedicated this poetry to them. 

 So much depends upon…

All my life

I have wandered through,

Searching and looking from place to place.

My heart was broken,

Shattered from pieces to pieces,

Knowing that my paths have taken away

Were leading me nowhere.

I knew that loves lost would cost.

But like an empire to dust

I just ignored my life.

Eventually, I sat and stay

Deciding that grey should be the day

In which I lived.

Suddenly, you came,

Reaching me out

From the world I did not belong

Taking all the negativity

And turning it to positivity, 

Teaching me that love was not

A foolish game

I listened quietly.

So let me tell you this

With every kisses

I adore you.

I Was Afraid

I never wanted to be brave

I was afraid to be brave.

I was afraid and sad.

Being brave might sounds good

But being brave also sounds like being a liar,

Pretending that everything was okay.

But nothing was okay.  

Because I was afraid.
