Make it Stop

by Sophie Ennor

try to be that perfect girl
the happy girl everyone knows
but it’s just hard
I’m not that girl everyone knows
where did she go?
I kinda miss her

I lie in bed with voices in my head
telling me a bunch of stuff that’s not true
which isn’t fair, anxiety is tough
I can’t deal with it anymore

someone just make all these voices stop
it all dropping down like a bomb
I can’t deal with this any more
someone just make it, make it stop

make it stop, make it stop, make it stop
I go to sleep to make the voices stop
just to wake up to anxiety
where did that happy little girl go?
where is she?
I kinda need her

the voices are chocking me
I can’t breathe anymore
but I’m okay
I’ll survive it like I always do
I’m used to it

I’m sick of feeling like this
I want to be in the sky where I belong
all the voices will be gone
I’ll be free and happy again

everyday I put a smile on my face
I try to be that perfect girl
with a perfect life
but it’s all fake
I’m not okay

I wanna live the perfect life
be the performer I’ve dreamt about
but at the same time I don’t
the voices inside are killing me
I just want it to go away

someone just make all these voices stop
it’s all dropping down like a bomb
I can’t deal with this any more
someone just make it make it stop

make it stop , make it stop ,make it stop
i go to sleep to make voices stop
just to wake up to anxiety
where did that happy little girl go
where is she i kinda need her
i need her right now

I Love My Grandad.

In the sunsets above where he now may rest,
As my mum’s brothers laid in their own nest.
Peaceful and sweet, loving and care,
My grandad need not worry
about his gorgeous locks of hair.

He was a great man, a bundle of fun,
he never liked the so-called drink rum.
He would always be silly with me,
when i was wee, we climbed up a tree.

I love him dear,
oh how i wish he was near.
From orchids to hugs,
to his favourite ladybug.

Drowning

by Random

When your best isn’t good enough
When you tried all you can
When you gave it everything but you still feel like a failure,
Sometimes when you’re drowning,
You don’t want to be saved.

When they leave,
When you love them,
When you’re feeling upset,
Sometimes when you’re drowning,
You don’t want to be saved.

When you see other people
Living the life you want to lead,
When you’re jealous of people you’ve never even seen
Sometimes when you’re drowning,
You don’t want to be saved.

But think of your favourite song,
Your favourite person, food, smell, toy,
Think of your family,
Even though sometimes they’re wrong,
Sometimes when you’re drowning and you don’t want to be saved,
The one you love will do it anyway.

They will be there ,
Through thick and thin,
Because you’re there for them
And they are the same.

So when you have a bad day,
And it feels like your falling and there’s no end,
Just remember there will always be a person
You can call home.

My Life

0
by Annelies

My life is fantastic,
My life is great
My life is better than a lot grapes
My life feels incomplete though
It’s an empty hole
A nurse or a detective
Is the decision I face
The life I choose,
Determines my future
Determines where I live,
What country do I choose next?
I won’t stay in this corrupt country any longer,
I must break free!
Albania or Lithuania
Nigeria or Siberia
Or maybe even recreate Syria
The questions I face determines my life,
but before I choose I’ll have some booze
a word my friends joke to me about,
with no real meaning,
You may ask my old life,
but in truth it’s gone now,
I’m a new person in a new country,
a new person in a life.
This is long but it is my expression.
It may not rhyme but it is my confession.
I think of life, almost like a knife,
Something that cuts through you like in a trice,
But I am done for today,
Tomorrow I shall sleep, then get up and eat
And hopefully it will be Easter break,
where I can escape this meester of a place.

Life is a Wonder

by Akashdeep Das

Life is a bird, it flies high in the heavens if you want it to
It falls in the ditches if you impel it to
Life moves and alters directions after failures and successes
You should exuberate the remaining time you have left,
Experience the world and effectuate your wholesome desires,
Enjoy life to the fullest, and contemplate your actions

Life, believe me, is not a dream,
As others say,
A little drizzle or morning rain,
Foretells a pleasant day,
Why so lament an autumn fall? We should encounter
and love it all
Fill up your bucket list with all your joy,
Finish it with all your friends, in spite of girl or boy,
Never fall back due to others,
Use them as pillars to
be more successful,
Why cry and waste your precious hours
When you can enjoy
what’s ours?
The moon, the sun, and all will bow down at you,
If you show the world and make them, remember your name too
This is all the world wants you to do
And the only thing stopping
you is YOU.

I am…

I am a cow,
I like to meow.
It makes me happy,
So I put on a nappy.

Whispers of the Night

0
by Isabella

In the darkness of the night,
Illuminated by the moon’s soft light.
I hear a whisper in my ear,
A voice that fills me with fear.

It speaks of love and loss,
Of dreams shattered that will make you toss.
Of hope that fades away,
And of time that never seems to stay.

But then the whisper changes tune
And sings of stars that brightly bloom.
Of a joy that grows and fills the heart
Of a brand new beginning, a brand new start.

I open up my eyes,
And see the beauty in the night skies.
The stars that twinkle in the night,
And fill me with their gentle light.

And though the whisper fades away,
I know that it will come another day
To fill my heart with love and light,
And guide me through the darkest night.

The Frog’s Croak

0
by Isabella

There once was a frog from Peru
Who loved to sing the whole day through
But all the other frogs would groan
His voice was like a dying moan

He tried to practice every night
To hit the notes just right
But even with his best attempt
His croaks were like a bad contempt

One day he met a toad who said
“Your voice is not so bad, my friend
It’s just a matter of technique
Let me show you, it’s not unique.”

So they sat down by the pond
And the toad began to bond
He taught the frog to use his lungs
And hit the notes without the grunge

Now every frog and every toad
Gathers round to hear him croak
He sings with joy and no more fear
And everyone now gives a cheer

So let this be a lesson to you
Don’t be afraid to try anew
With a little help from a friend
You’ll find success in the end!

My Phone

by Ivy Evans

It’s like being trapped in a box
I’ve done nothing wrong!
I have the maturity
The responsibility

But i’m not trusted
Why?
I can’t open up
Share my feelings to anyone
Somehow she’ll find out

Nothing is private, it all gets read
even things not meant for her
How does it stop?
I’m a good student why am I being punished?

A 30 word poem that rhymes but doesn’t make sense

by Florence (Flora Micheals)

birds fly,
seagulls cry.

pointless pencils,
silver utensils.

falling in love,
one favourite dove.

you are full of glee,
and I’m just glad to be me!

birds fly,
seagulls cry.
