When I grow up I want to be a unicorn.
I will travel the world with my horn full of magic.
Where I go rainbows will appear.
When I get back to my house I’ll be a girl again.
Poems
Don’t Be Afraid of Me
Don’t be afraid of me
because I’m a tall mean person
and I’ve got a big shadow.
Don’t be afraid of me
because those things are not true about me
I’m small
and I’m only a mouse.
What’s in the Box?
I will put into the box
A football, a Real Madrid t-shirt,
A football, a Spain t-shirt,
A Liga football,
A Champions’ football,
A pair of CRISTIANO’s football boots.
I will put inside the box
A tennis racket,
A tennis net,
A pair of shoes,
A tennis bottle,
A hat.
I will put in the box
A swimming hat,
A pair of goggles,
A swimming suit,
A towel,
A pair of shoes.
I will put in the box
A Real Madrid basketball,
A basketball, Real Madrid t-shirt,
A basketball, Spain t-shirt
A pair of basketball shoes,
A basketball.
My box is fashioned from
the shiniest gold,
from the wood of a tree.
Silence
I went to the stream
In my little rocky cave
Which was lit up blue
By crystals spreading around
Then I walked outside
‘How are you?’ I asked
Nobody answered
The fall continued to plunge
Splashing in the rocks
The birds chattered
Some even sang
A squirrel scrabbled about
With its nut
Protectively in its arm
Muttering something
The tree blew in the wind
Waving, as if to say, Hi
The grass whistled
In the morning Sun
Which glowed merrily
Up far away
In the sky
And I breathed in
The fresh air of the woods
Untainted by the smoke
And I knew
They were doing great
Because
Silence speaks a thousand words
Lost
I wish that I could go back
In time, to reconsider my choices
And to correct my mistakes
But I am unable
And so I live my life
Regretting the decision I made
If only I had been considerate
Thought before I answered
But I didn’t
And now, I want to go back
To retrieve what was lost
Down Memory Lane
I knew we were done
Yes we had enough
You were on my path
I was on mine
Waited for the paths to cross
Hoped to meet again
I saw our paths intersecting
But turned I knew
You would blame me
For all of your pain
You wouldn’t look into my eyes
See the fear of making new friends
You had pushed me away
Hoping that I would run after you
I had lost all my senses
And no one was there to pick me up
Forgetting this I ran back to you
Hoping that you would hug me
Talk to me and love me the same way
Unfortunately our friendship had changed
Everything had changed
I saw you laughing with someone else
The same way we used to
Memories trembled down my spine
Tears rolled down my cheeks
I stood there for hours motionless
Taking a journey down memory lane
Audience
Audience
My heart beat fast
Slowly expanding
To break apart my ribcage
Each breath was painful
Like breathing cold air
My wobbling knees
Threatened to give out
My eyesight blurred
With black spots
Somehow
I faced up
And looked at the audience
Expectant looks
Then it went like a dream
I didn’t forget a line
Though distracted
My mouth did a painful twist
As I looked at them again
After I was done
Silence
Something had gone wrong
And then the most beautiful sound
Millions clapped
I hid my face
Blushing
And went back
