ARROWSA BECHET PARTICIPANT SHARES HIS POEM AS PERFORMED AT THE SOUTH-NORTH CONVERSATION EXHIBITION OPENING
Let’s go back to the days
By Darnelle Fortune (14 yrs)
Let’s go back to the days
when we were young
When we were free
And lived life how it’s supposed to be
When imagination was not a word
But a part of our dreams
When being hurt didn’t matter
and sadness didn’t exist
When LMNO was one word
And we didn’t know the meaning of obscured
When friendship was the only relationship
and the fun never ended
When it was OK to cry
And impossible to lie
When you never wished you’d die
and focused on spelling “My”
You see!
There’s a difference between past and present...
it makes you who you are...
past is a simple time of life...
that takes you very far...
it’s a learning curve that many have been through
it’s a journey that leads you to...
THE PRESENT
the present is now
it’s on the spot
the present is time...
the present is life...
We often get confused between the two
and our minds don’t go too far
let’s go back to the days
that made us who we are! 2012
