Gift
By Selina Dai yest erd a y m y crush gave me a beautiful gift box t in h h si a a de d t it a tantalizing feeling r a a t th t e b f h r e s e e a a l w k i g n You Are
Selina Dai You are air, So vital it’s unfair. You are air, Invisible and never there. You are snow, Beautiful with a glow. You are snow, Using cold insults as ammo. You are fire, Someone to admire. You are fire, Filling me with ire. You are life, Filling me with strife. You are life, Stabbing me with a knife. You are a liar, No one to desire. You are a liar, Pretending to be a crier. You are fake, And I am tired. I say goodbye To this lie of ours. Seasons of You
Selina Dai Spring brings new beginnings. Flowers bloom, Trees fill blue skies with green, Rain gently pitter-patters on my roof. Spring brings new beginnings. We meet for the first time, exchange awkward “hellos,” And smile awkward smiles. Summer brings brightness. The sun beams, Birds chirp, And the sky is cloudless. Summer brings brightness. We meet for the fortieth time, exchange excited “hellos,” And smile excited smiles. Autumn brings coolness. The air is crisp, The ground is covered with orange, And the days are shorter. Autumn brings coolness. We meet for the hundredth time, And exchange relaxed “hellos,” And smile relaxed smiles. Winter brings coldness. White snow coats the ground, trees are leafless, And the animals are gone. Winter brings coldness. We meet for the thousandth time, And exchange annoyed “hellos,” And frown annoyed frowns. Then summer comes again, And I begin anew with a new person, Exchanging those same awkward smiles, Hiding the pain of winter, Longing for autumn. Autumn is the season of relaxation, There’s no need to force a smile, Or constantly talk. Autumn is the season of trust, Where we show our true colors, And we tell secrets. Autumn is too short, And too bittersweet. Yellow, Red, Orange
Selina Dai Trees can be Barren, Green, Yellow, Red, Orange. Barren trees seem lonely, Without any bright colors Or anything to show off But their dull brown branches. Trees with green leaves seem envious, Not as varied as autumn leaves, All the same shade, Not as loved. Trees of yellow seem cheerful, Enthusiastic and playful. Reminiscent of summer, Yellow makes us optimistic. Trees of red seem passionate, Fiery and emotional, But also loyal and brave. They make us feel excited. Trees of orange are a mix, Both cheerful and passionate, Playful and loyal, Orange is the color of joy. Autumn is yellow, red, and orange. Mischievous, adventurous, and ecstatic. A mix of all three, Autumn is fulfillment. Autumn is Feeling like a child again. |
