Running Free

Running Free

A Poem by Michaela
"

Dream big or be bored :)

"
When can I change these white washed walls,
these bored faces and cramped desks,
the dress codes and homework policies,
for something so much better?

I can see green meadows and true love,
a warm breeze and cool stream,
dreams coming true and smiles breaking frowns,
lives changing for the better all around.

Alone or not, as long as school is far away,
Dreams aloud to drift free and legs aloud to run,
Creativity blossoming and love coming true,
Happiness blooming as abundant as the flowers.

I can be happy and completely stress free,
Riding horses or writing or dreaming,
Away from judgement and bullying,
Why cant it all be true?

The girls with makeup caked on their faces,
Washing it away and exposing their true beauty,
The boys who hurt them so far away,
And me still unchanged.

The boys losing their fears,
Becoming who they are too scared to show,
Stopping the teasing and fighting,
Trading in a life of love and peace.

No more late nights spent on homework,
No more tears spilled from broken hearts,
No more studying for things we'll never need,
No more being put down and broken.

Only the ones who can put it all aside,
Who can smile and laugh through it all,
The heartbreak, the stress, the rumors,
Only they can understand.

Together we can leave behind the ways
So normal in schools today,
Together we can show the world,
We aren't normal boys and girls.

Differences aren't bad, they are so good,
Life without pain is impossible,
Life without happiness is too.
Together we can show the world what we can do.

If you ever feel desperate or fully alone,
Remember there are more like you,
There are ones who have lost their lives,
Ones who couldn't go on any longer.

We can be a different breed,
Together we can show the world what its bargaining with,
Tomorrow we can make a difference,
Today is for dreaming, and I'll do just so.

For any teachers or students who disagree-I'm sorry, this is just how my school seems to be. I have loved some of my teachers, and they have shown me they are different too. I just hope you can understand.

Excellent write!

My favorite lines:
Differences aren't bad, they are so good,
Life without pain is impossible,
Life without happiness is too.
Together we can show the world what we can do.

You put great depth into this piece.
I actually remember feeling this way and it is a good sign when your writing can bring up memories for your readers.
Well done, Michaela
