Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by thatartsyreadergirl with a new topic every week.
April 18: Non-book Freebie (choose your own topic that’s not related to books! This could be hobbies, TV shows/movies, bands/singers, food items/recipes, top ten things about you, your top ten favourite things, places you’ve visited, favourite fashion designers, etc. Take this time to let your readers get to know you a little!)
So I picked some of my favourite writing poetry I wrote, so I hope you like too.
What Ifs
Of what ifs
Picturing life events
With a different outcome
Changing my life as
I know it
Whether good or bad
I don’t know
Because at the end
Of the day
They will stay
Just that what ifs
Mother Of Silk
The smoothest of silk
Is chosen for babies
From their mothers
Made to nature’s perfection
In the birth of a cocoon
To offer protection
Just like the one
In the womb
When Pain
Pain is a sign
Of being alive
Because it is
What the body does
To show us
That something isn’t
In order
In a living system
A Glass Bottle
A bottle of glass
Hold a hidden mystery
Full of colour
That won’t reveal
Itself until
It is shattered
In a billion pieces
And is face
Into the sky
Reaching the clouds
With their light
Our Eyes See Emotions
Our eyes see
A ton of image
On a daily basis
Of the life around us
And they need
To make a snap decision
On what emotion
To send to
Our mind
Body Curves
If body curves
Could have colours
They would be
The darkest of nights
Because no matter
How much
You try and wish
To hide them
They will always
Show in your
Rawest moments
That Little Sign
While I was at pride
Enveloped into sounds
Coming from different
Voices with their own path
With its colour
Giving a story
Then someone passed by
Holding a little sign
Saying trans rights
Are human rights
Which gave this
New sense of belonging
Assumptions
People assume like it is
In their nature
To do so
However, when the intention
Comes into the mix
Not to see
The reality from the mind’s fiction
It will create just pain
Victim Or Criminal
The victim deserves to find justice
The criminal needs to pay
The price for what
They did
What is hidden behind the scenes
Is the double-edged knife
On the families’ lifes
That comes with
No matter on which side
You are
Like An Onion
Life has multiple layers
Just like an onion is made
Raw it can sting
Like an open wound
That is yet to heal
But when you cook it
It goes sweet and soft
So, it is all on the point
Of view, that starts it off
Alex
Interesting spin on the freebie!
