About a sudden change which might come to our lives. The problems we faced, people we met. Soon enough there’s always a new beginning for us.

Life has twisted
To a whole new level.
From different countries, towns and cities
To a new world.
Situations I faced, which crumbled me to pieces.
Loved ones I knew, who disappeared under the grounds like rotten bodies and flesh.
School was jail for students.
Locked inside a room, doing paper work.
College enters my life
A sign of a new beginning.
I inhaled freedom,
like as if I had been released from prison.
People I hated! Because of being a show off!
And now, there’s people I love! Because they’re caring as the others who were not!
This is a change for me!
A new beginning that I may refresh myself and my life again. I call this a great new start!

    Indeed, even though the story goes on, it has many new beginnings.

    Powerful images of things I would want to leave behind to start new again. Good job.

    I can really relate to this poem, because I am approoching that point in my life.
    School being a jail is a very nice metaphor as well as the image of beign crumbled to pieces
