Kindness

What’s one small improvement you can make in your life?

Drilled into the bird’s head

Is the code to make a nest,

Drilled into the fly

Is the code to be a pest.

Is it in our head

To be heartless and unkind?

Poverty, injustice,

Something we don’t mind?

A human has reason

Making it different from any creature

So if being kind

Goes against my nature

Then it is also what makes me human,

A kind and gentle woman.

Twins

💌

Singular fish swim in rock pools

Not knowing schools

Are swimming in the sea.

Matchsticks glow weak

Not knowing fire is taking down cities

As we speak.

A loner but not really alone

Simply circumstances prevent a meet

Though you may pass your twin at heart

Unknowingly on the street.

Molding

What does freedom mean to you?

Make me a mold and push me into it
So I may mold into your desires
Until I am too worn out
To mold so seamlessly
So you may replace me
But I will still keep molding
Into others’ desires
Until it is not being worn out
That halts me
But my now iron heart
That states it is not my obligation
To please each imagination.

(A people pleaser poem)

Freedom

If I was created

With the blessing of free will

Then let me not waste my time,

Let me not sit still.

Let me be louder than the thunder

Let my eyes water more than rain

Let me cause the realists to wonder

Let me cure each poet’s pain.

Let my tongue taste the rain

For it is screaming the truth

For history has not remembered

The ones who chose to stay mute.

Awaited

💝

Darling there are mountains
Whispering your name.
The molecules of the heart you claim
Were waiting for you since before time began
And the stardust you are made of
Was waiting for you in the deepest crevices
Of the darkest ocean.
You are meant to be here,
Your presence has been awaited
Since before time began, my dear.
But that is not why I need you here.
My heart calls your name,
Without your presence
I would not be the same.
My heart has called your name
Since before my existence began.
There was a world before you
Don’t let that happen again.

Law

What is your career plan?

I’m a third year law student, so hopefully in a few years I will be either a lawyer or a notary. To be honest I am leaning more towards being a notary as I feel it is a job I would enjoy more. I sometimes visit a notary office to learn more about their job and it seems to be quite interesting, meeting new people and helping them as best you can. I don’t work much right now since I need to study a lot but I sometimes am a telephone interviewer. It doesn’t pay much but it helps.

Tiny Thoughts

💖

Each tiny ant has tiny thoughts

And movement in its

Tiny little toes.

Cried for a loved one

Being stepped on by giant foes.

Each ant has helped carry food

So they may survive the harsh winter,

Each ant is alive and complicated

Though tinier than a splinter.

Yet the homeless and the poor

Are but statues in the snow,

We look in pity

For they have nowhere to go

But run away to the other side

As our disgust continues to grow.

Fireworks

The fireworks are beautiful tonight

They illuminate the sky

With multi-coloured droplets so bright.

Their pops and bangs are exciting,

Their leftover fog strangely inviting,

Calling me to remain transfixed.

In some other part of this earth

Another girl is also transfixed

Listening to pops and bangs

But her reaction is quite mixed

For there are no colours,

Only odours

Of dust and people that were in its way

Yet she is far too terrified to run

Or tear her eyes away.

Known

❤️‍🔥

My darling I have known you
For only a moment of life
But when the time comes
I will end this journey
Knowing you
Till my very least breath
For though times change
And my relationships have
All felt that wrath,
You are different.
There are seven sacraments
But darling in my life
You are the next.
