AS ONE, By Sushi
I’m in a peaceful place
inside my mother’s womb
I can hear her heartbeat
I can feel her breathing
while she exhales and inhales
I can taste the food she’s eating
through my umbilical cord
I can feel her movement while I float inside
As each day passes by
I am one with her,
the animals, the trees, the stars
I am floating inside her belly
as one
with the universe
FREE, By Tailini
I was traveling inside myself
A place no one’s ever been before
So scary, exotic and beautiful
A place I bet you dream of
My eyes were amazed as I gazed inside
To find my life away from lies
Everything I could’ve ever wanted
No place like me in mind
There was no fighting time
Free to do me. ME, can you believe it?
I stay inside full of pride
Just to wake up and open my eyes to cry
It’s only inside a place you won’t know or go or hold
Only for me to see and you to dream
I never tried to let them in,
Scared they might break me deep
6 feet deep, down in the ground,
dark, but I’ll be proud, because I won’t be found.
THE ANSWER, By Jessamin Flores
I was traveling inside myself
Hoping to find an answer
Walking along a rough path
As the waves on my right smoothly dance in the sea
I see myself sitting on the grass
Grass that has a bright color and fresh smell
The breeze slowly touches my face
Tears of joy fall to the ground
The trees dance from left to right
I get up, forget about my thoughts
I finally found my answer:
This is where I belong
LOST, By Dani
I was traveling inside myself
and I saw nothing
pure black shadowy mist
I haven’t been here in so long
I don’t even recognize myself
always thinking
of others
you lose
yourself
A LONG PATH, By Twilight
I was traveling inside myself
It’s dark, I see forks in my path, a long path
Signs keep appearing before me
warning: Caution, Do Not Go Ahead
Strange
I walk further, it gets darker, colder
Scarier
I see myself as if I was projected on a screen
Ha! My first word. I look to my right, I see
my first kiss. To my left, my first heartbreak
I walk further, my first car accident
I run
My fears appear before me
I SEE, By Zoe
Traveling inside myself
I see my selfish side
Where I look at him with anger
Whoa, I thought I was nice!
The rudeness I can’t explain
In the back corner lie those memories
That wait to be sparked up again
Hi there, dust covered memos
There’s my butterflies waiting
For me to get nervous.
