I am
By Alyssa
I am a green apple, sometimes sweet and sometimes sour
I am a spork sometimes I wanna get everything sometimes I don’t
I am a lion I do not fear I’m down for everything
nobody knows that thinking about good memories calms me down
something everybody says about me is I’m a over-thinker.
Realize and Accept
By Jake
I am a dragon fruit because I am seen as someone but I’m
actually someone else. A dragon fruit has a lot of attention on it that it
looks like it has flavor because of how it looks, but once you try it
you realize it really has no taste. I am seen as a Negative and Annoying
Person but if you really give me a chance and get to know me you realize
who I really am and what I’m going through. I am afraid of this world
and have many problems but no one realizes it. I’ve only had 2 friends that
I have been friends with for over a year. Give me a chance and get to
know me before you accept me as the wrong person.
