Make-believe (Age 12)

Make-believe (Age 12)

A Chapter by Amelia May
"

This is a poem that I wrote when I was 12 about my favorite movie Peter Pan.

MAKE-BELIEVE
Welcome to never-never land.
Dress me up and just pretend
I'm the one you never knew, 
I'm the one you didn't use. 
Here in never-never land,
You can be anyone,
Just pretend. 
Here in never-never land,
All your nightmares come true. 
But here in never-never land,
I can be with you. 
I'll know you'll always love me, 
And I know you'll never leave,
Because here in never-never land,
Our love is make-believe. 
But, sadly, here in never-never land,
there is no mom and dad. 
And though you may be happy, 
You'll make your parents sad.

This was a poem that I wrote at age 12, so (like usual), take that into consideration before you judge it too harshly.

It wasn't until age 12 when I started writing. I used to draw a lot before actually writing down stories. I didn't start poetry until three or four years later. I just started out with stories. Nobody really taught me, I just did. There's something about the age of twelve that shows us who we're going to become, I think. So your poem reminds me of that age where writing began to change my life.

I think this is remarkably well written for a 12 year old :). It makes me think of never never land in a new way and how it is both a happy and sad place depending on who you are.

I think that was my goal. I cannot quite remember it well.
