Crayons

Growing up can happen too fast. This is just a reminder that it's OK to do things from when you were younger.

Reds, blues, yellows, greens

Open a box and unleash dreams

Strokes of color on a page

This game is the one to play

Have you ever felt blind? Like someone pushed you out into the world, but blindfolded. I haven't. But I know people who have. Or people that didn't realize that for every bad feeling they put in the world, 2 good ones left. Here's the poem I wrote about that.

                                 My eyes were closed

to the world,

my heart

did not love

My feet walked

for no one but me,

and my hands

didn’t share

I was in the illusion

that everything was fair

My life went on,

and as it did,

I saw the world as it truly is

My eyes awakened

as my heart unfolded

Now my feet walk  for others

with my hands wide open

I have seen sorrow,

unfairness,

and loss

All with a heavy heart;

because my hands were still opened

and my feet still walked

As I lay in bed ,

wondering when it will end

I look out my window

and sigh

Amid the debris and destruction,

pollution and filth

There is one lone flower,

a glimmer of  hope.

Hey guys! This blog is going to be me(Liv R) posting about my life, which is in the eyes of an 11 year old. Its going to be poems, short stories, prose, and everything in between. my first poem/post is going to be about beauty. Here goes :)

People say beauty

Is being skinny

And ugly

Is fat

They said that white is better than black

But

I will

Wear

What I want

And eat my fill

Because

Beauty

Cannot

Be found

On the outside

Only

On the inside

Where the things that matter reside

If

You see the color gold

You know

That you are pure of heart and soul

If you see

The color gold

It does not matter

What your face

Or body

Or hands

Or feet

Looks like

All that matters

Is your heart and soul,

plus the color gold.

Hope you liked it!
