Today is the day I leave,
to join the hidden souls taken away by the sea.
My parts?
Swept away by the cruel tidal waves of the one who pulverises hope.
My people have abandoned me
My will to live fades every day,
My fate… has been sealed.

Life is a pointless lie,
made by the villainous sea as a joke,
as life is a synonym of peril,
I stand on a measly sea stack,
soon to be a stump.

We Are

0
by Bodhi Dwyer aged 11

We are the smoke that clouds the sky.
We are the blade about to end your life.
We are the ones who wrote the end.
We are the predators with an unending hunger.
We are the weeds in a perfect road.
We are the virus plunging the world into chaos.
We are the wrong unable to be made right.

The Sound of the Sea, the Salt and Freedom that Comes With It

by Liv aged 12

The beach is where all secrets hide
Hidden whispers buried in the tide
The beach is where the memories last
The first thing you think of when you think of your past
The beach is where you have fun
The only place where you don’t have to run
Where salt meets skin and hearts feel free
The beach is the best memory
From jumping through the gentle waves
To looking for treasure in hidden caves
The beach is where you can be free
The beach is where I am me

The War of Land and Sea

by Dara aged 10

The sea is my enemy

The only one I have

It stares at me mockingly, chuckling evilly

As it crashes into me relentlessly, many of us have fallen

And it seems like I’m next

But remember one thing before I go

Us buildings never forgive and most importantly we never forget

Sausages on the BBQ

Sizzle, Flip, Sizzle
Clang, Drop, Clang
Sausages on the BBQ
Sizzle, Flip, Sizzle

Loss

by laia aged 10

Once a perfect pure place,
Now a soon to be a disgrace.
Walls and halls and photos too,
Maybe next is my roof?

The vicious waves crash on my walls,
Sometimes I think it will take me all at once.
I am a punching bag for the waves,
This is not a game!

This is the last I will speak,
The waves are my enemy!
Help me, please!
People need to stop cutting the trees.

I Think It’s Time

Days pass as I get closer and closer
Nothing left for me
I might as well wait for my fate to be.
Heartbroken with no way back.
It’s my final day
Will they remember me or will I stay in a dark place of their heart?

It’s time to be one with the sea.

The Times Of loss

by M aged 10

It’s about time for my fate to be sealed from the light of the world.
Photos on the wall now mean nothing.
Memories they are all destroyed from this world as the waves brutally
Crash into the cliff and the air just thinks this is a game

And when I die history will retell itself and I feel sorry.
For destroying other houses like mine.
But I have no choice, I hoped that I wouldn’t destroy another house
But fate is fate, I have to do it

The House

As the stack crumbles
It is my last few days.
I don’t know what to do
Because I felt my job was
To protect a family

Little Colours

by Isla aged 10

I’m the golden sun
Who always says hello

I’m the glittery moon
Who has sweet dreams

I’m the pretty rainbow
Who has hidden treasure

I’m the sunny day
Who is ready and happy to play

I’m the black night
Who shows a constellation of stars

I’m the shooting star
Who is full of wishes

I’m me
Who I can be
I follow my heart
Into the stars
