New
Me
Katrina
Curry
Grade 10
Roseau
Not knowing where to
go or who to meet;
My new school, my new
me.
Only five years old,
Getting older with
each passing minute.
In each minute, the fear gets bigger, the anticipation grows.
People stare at me,
like I'm a monster.
Why? It's only me.
I'm home now, just not
the same.
Different room; different color; different place.
My new home, my new
me.
Much bigger than
yesterday
Not only inside, but
outside too.
More trees, more grass, more room to run and pass.
Same faces; same
loving family.
Same old happy dog
that loves me.
