POEM STARTER

Submitted by Margaret Sok

Did I cross the line...?

Write a poem or short story about a character going too far.

Everything and Nothing

I’ve let it go too far How do I turn back When I was a star Life was on track

Took it for granted Felt quite invincible My aura enchanted Now rather invisible

Stringing two hopes Together with pain This is how one copes With constant strain

Remaining busy doing Everything and nothing Disdain still brewing Longing for something

Reluctantly pressing on Fuelled by pigheadedness Losing like I already won Swallowing this bitterness
