QUESTIONS
Pretends to
understand the pain
Or have
truly been hurt before?
Being
sympathetic
Or also went
through a rough road?
Wolf in
disguise
Or a white
lamb, honest and pure?
Just an act
of kindness
Or a
genuinely good soul?
Like a
carousel, always turning
Or a stable
hand to hold?
A tornado
passing through
Or a rainbow
full of hope?
A different
person behind closed doors
Or really
does have a heart of gold?
Questions we
ask ourselves
Answers we
won’t know for sure
-By Racheal

Where to
begin?
A question
we often as ourselves
How can we
even know for sure?
This is
where the chapter began
Did it
really start there?
Or was it
just another end
Reading
blindly through the past
Without
labeling
Was each
happily ever after
Really just
the start of the story?
And each
dramatic flare
Actually
held no mystery
All the
signs before
Were they
included in this?
Am I over analyzing?
Or is this really just that simple, it is what it is
-BY RACHEAL BALKISSOON
“I’m sorry”
It doesn’t
heal the wound, it doesn’t help the pain
“I’m sorry”
It’s just
two words, a single phrase
“I’m sorry”
Suppose to
make things seem harmless, like it’s a mistake
“I’m sorry”
Hard to
give, regardless of what it takes
“I’m sorry”
It doesn’t
move mountains, neither calm storms
“I’m sorry”
Yet we
expect the world out of those two words
