Now that December is here, I have decided to try something different: For four weeks I will create a poem/free style writing expressing my feelings and goals. I think this will benefit me, since I will be able to use my creativity and imagination (something I don't use quite often), and in a way I will be creating something other people might be able to relate to. Feel free to comment on my writing or to write something of your own :) I would love to hear from you!
EXPRESSION #1:
We were happy, and we didn't know it.
We were happy, and we didn't know it.
Look at the pictures in the frames
Look at all those smiling faces staring back at you
Those eighties looks, those alien-like glasses.
How could those have been the fashion back then?
Look at your friends, your mom, and your dad.
Look at how it all now makes better sense - or maybe not.
Those birthday parties, those late night hangovers.
How could we not have notice them?
Look at those special places you visited - you didn't travel very far,
But now you barely go outside.
Look at your younger, naive, unknowing face.
Those days back then seemed long and everlasting.
Those days are now sweet memories captured in frames.
But tell me...
Isn't today like one of those days?
Today you have smiling faces, you have friends, you have special occasions,
And you have your younger self.
We were happy back then, and we didn't know it.
We are happy now, and we haven't noticed it.
Don't lose yourself in the past
Don't be blinded by the future
Cease the moment. Capture the moment.
You are happy now, but you must be the one to notice it.
Have a great week, everyone! I will see you back on Friday with our weekend song :)
Be strong, be unique, and step out of your comfort zone!
