Everyone Thinks I'm Super Happy
By Ali RobinsonEveryone thinks I am super happy
But I’m not...
Everyone thinks I just don’t have any problems
But I do...
Everyone thinks I am just happy with myself
But I’m not...
Everyone thinks that I can just make everything in my life okay
Where Am I
By Elijiah HernandezI hear walkie talkies – kusssshhhhh.
People talking, “Blah, blah, blah, bleep.”
I hear toilets flush.
Basketballs bounce and swoosh.
This place is full of it: empty.
Scrapyard Jungle
By Alexandra MillerThe twisted metal trees
Rise up from the heap
Magpies hop about
The glittering savannah
And crows harass the mice
Nesting in the chewed
Leather seat
Of a Volkswagen
A scruffy dog
Stalks the crows
Pieces of My Heart
By AnonymousSince the first breath of life,
one adventure to the next,
I can only reflect back in fondness
to the scattered pieces of my heart.
