Refound Works

I found some of my old poetry from when I was in grade 6 (the time when I started to write poetry), and I thought I'd share them, because I think it's always interesting to see the progress anybody goes through when it comes to creative works (and I can see some of my style already starting to emerge from these).



You were like dandelion seeds.
Evolving, older every season,
with on gust of wind you're
gone.

-------------

Life is a ball of yarn
unwinding, unwinding,
going, going, gone.

-------------

The skylights light up the sky
like the sun in the day.
Billboards shining
showing models too good to be
true.
The cars rushing by,
off to the party at a friend's.
Night that is day,
billboards of unreal people,
many a car passing by,
night in the city.
Unreal.

-------------

The storyteller.
Finding yarns of words,
weaving sentences together,
phrases are found within,
and are accented with description.
Finally a masterpiece is done,
a tapestry of magic.

-------------

Look at us.
We were free before.
We were before we met,
when we locked eyes
they imprisoned us.
Stuck in a room where glass
is between us.
We are so near,
yet so far.
The strict rules of society.

-------------

Friendship is
four years together
three years away
two years of hate
and
one year of solitude.
