POEM STARTER
Out of Reach
Write a poem about something that always seems just out of reach.
Just out of reach
I’m just a 14 year old girl
Who doesn’t really understand the world
Maybe I see through a different lense
Or a different looking glass all together
There are plenty of things in this world
That i do understand
How everyone seems to have their right hand man
Except for the lonely and broken
How people in power
Deatroy the people
Who hold the peices
Keeping their lives afloat
I understand
The discrimination
The abomanation
The indoctrination
I understand
The long for peace
How its just out of reach
Yet so far away
I understand that me
Writing poems about being woke
Just to cope
Doesn’t help anyone
But myself
But that matters too, right?
I understand the rights stripped away
Every single day
Making life harder to live
To be ok
I understand on a moral level
But what I don’t understand
Is time
How things
Change
Evolve
Adapt
yet everything seems to stay the same
The same groups are hated
But its hidden in plain sight
It just gives people a fright
Justice
Peace
Love
But its all just out of reach
