HEYYY!
Sorry, I know it's been weeks since I blogged. I've been INSANELY busy with schoolwork (I had my midterms last week) and I used my free time to watch anime... For anyone interested, I started watching One Piece and I'm on season 4! And before I started One Piece, I finished 2 seasons of Kuroko No Basket and I haven't watched Naruto Shippuden in about 2 months now (I think the universe doesn't want me to watch it, because every time I try, the page or the video won't load!!!)
ANYWAY.
This poem was written for my friend, who had a poetry competition that was mandatory for everyone in her school, so she asked me for help. I gladly wrote this poem for her! (I don't know if she won the competition or not yet... Waiting to hear the results!)
MOTHERS NEVER CHANGE:
When I was young, I couldn't wait to grow up;
I couldn't wait to be cool!
But then I realized everything changes.
I just wish I knew...
The friends I had in infinite numbers
Suddenly I can count on my fingers!
The stuff I learned at school drove me insane
And became harder and harder.
The people around me changed so much
Our behavior, our ideas of fun
And the things we chatted about were different
From when we were young ones
And I changed too.
I grew up.
But there's one thing
I must point out.
Mom. You never changed!
You were always there for me
And with open arms and a warm smile
You're limitless love was so sweet!
Everyone changed, mama, but you didn't.
You may have gotten strict in between,
Frowned and scolded me too,
But that was so you could guide your growing teen.
I love you, mom. Don't ever forget that!
You're the only person I can trust;
In this unstable world of liars and bullies,
Your embrace everyday is a must.
You work so hard to keep me safe,
No matter how ungrateful I may be.
But when I grow older I'll take better care of you;
You just wait and see!
In this world where everything changed,
You're the only one who didn't change a thing.
So I love you, mom,
Thank you for everything!
I hope you enjoyed that! I'll try to blog regularly again, but I've got more unit tests and a Quarterly Exam coming up. But keep your eyes open for my next post!
UPDATE!
GUESS WHAT!
This poem won 1ST PLACE!!!!!! It's gonna be published in her school's magazine too!!!!! I'm so happy! ^_^
