Poem (What If?);
So, Amelia introduced me to a site full of writers, you can put up poetry, stories, songs, raps, pretty much anything, and other writers, andd, if enough people click that they liked your writing you can get money (in dollars, but still, money is money), so, I wrote a poem and put it up, it was reviewed, and then added, so I'll post the link, and I'd appericate it if you could click the link and click that you liked the poem, thanks :*
I'll post the poem under the link too =D
What If?
She's the girl, painfully thin, she doesn't eat,
Every lunch she hides from the poison smell of food,
They comment to each other in the changing rooms,
“You can see the outline of her bones!” they remark,
And yet no one helps,
What if starvation is contagious?
He's that one, awkward and shy and always alone,
Every night he sits alone in his room,
Listening to the sounds of the kids in the street,
Wishing for once that it was him that was out,
No one will befriend him,
What if loneliness is contagious?
Did you hear?
About that boy that took his own life last year?
Everyone knew things weren't good at home,
Everyone saw the cuts upon his arms and legs,
Why didn't anyone try to help?
What if depression is contagious? They said.
What if someone helped her see how beautiful she was?
What if someone helped him simply by being his friend?
What if someone had helped that boy sort out his problems?
What if society cared more about the broken?
What if?
HSMSHS(Stairway);
Obviously, the first thing I though of for this was my stairway, and because I have limited time there wasn't anything more creative I could do, so I just decided to do my staircase.
I took a few different verisons of this, but liked this one the best.
