A Poem by Skelasoldier
"

English project, expirementing with Metaphors and Similes

"

You are like a star in the sky

Your luster shines for all to see

Out of the billions, you are unique

Waiting for your moment, to fade

 

Like a brick wall you hold

Verbal attacks bounce off

The brick is your ambition

The mortar is your pride

 

You are a block of ice

Difficult to break and cold to touch

Slowly your willpower melts away

Turning yourself into a mess

 

Like a raindrop you fall

God's tear incarnated

Rapidly falling from your fantasy

Into this reality, just a stain on someones sleeve

 

Like a Pheonix rising from the ashes

You stand from your living grave

The powder on your nose a reminder

Of what you got away from

 

So now I wait

For that star to appear again

For that Brick wall to be rebuilt

For that block of ice to be refrozen

For that droplet of rain, to disappear

Absolutely mesmerized by the metaphors that you used. Each one conveyed the perfect image in my mind of this persons qualities. The end was a perfect summary as well. Keep it up! Hope you get a good grade for this project, best of luck.
