Assignment for 27 January 2016
College Life
Empty, lonely, space. Above my head,
there lies your empty bed.
And I sit here, missing you.
Clean and messy both at once;
different, but yet the same.
Roommates, but also friends.
Wrinkles of fabric sitting there,
Dirty clothes, bundled in the corner.
They sit in the basket-waiting.
Introverted, quiet, and shy.
People sit and wonder why.
They need to know, I'm not afraid.
Family
Laughter and smiles a distant memory.
When can I go back to you?
I am not happy here anymore.
The clock counts down,
the fans watch, in excited tension.
You shoot, and you score.
Loud arguing all around,
the sound of hate? Or love?
It's the sound of family.
Fluffy, and soft wagging tail.
Cute, black little nose.
A dog's love is better than most.
Nature
Sun pouring down behind clouds.
Grey skies and chilly winds.
The white snow melts in my hands.
Silent, dark, and eerie night.
Stars shine in the darkness.
Night is welcoming and peaceful.
Still snow, but not all grass
My favorite weather is here.
In between winter and spring.
