POEM STARTER

Write a poem where the opening line is in a different language.

If you don't know another language you could look up a common phrase said in your language of choice that is linked to the theme of your poem.

Senses

quand tu brûles toi-même,

tu ne ressens que du froid.

And those that are cold,

Beg for warmth.


Ceux qui couvrent leurs cicatrices,

sont ceux qui ont honte.

And those shame them,

Should be silenced.


I washed up on your shores,

But I wasn’t lost at sea.

Et j'ai appris à aimer,

toutes tes marées.


We learned to stand together,

To feel each other’s love.

Non pas parce que nous en avions besoin,

mais parce que nous avons choisi de.




French is my second language and I loved this prompt.




I love you baby 🖤
