3 Stages of High School Life




I woke up
Facing the door of the labyrinth
Having no idea where to go –
Daunted, scared.
As I entered, I feel so meager.
The runners were goliaths,
They prepared weapons.
I am the grass in the park
Who was kissed by the soles of their gigantic shoes.
Experiences came, moments passed
I fastened my restraint –
It was a roller coaster of emotions.
The ride was over; it felt surreal.
It will always be nostalgic.





My position in this trek’s still miles afar from the finish point,
My backpack was heavier.
I learned to be equipped for more, yet it was not as difficult like afore.
Maybe tolerance level arose.
But enthusiasm slowly died down
Sadly, from excellence to mediocrity.
I tried to add some spice,
Learned to go beyond horizons.
Politics hasn’t interested me before,
But here I am in front of the people,
Promising and trying to be favored.
This part was colorful, though.





The hardest part, they say.
I’m now a seed that fell in a shallow soil with underlying rock.
Storms and stones are trying to pull me,
But one with grit cannot be defeated.
My heart is expectant.
It seeks further.
It searches for more.
The colorful splatters of this stage,
Will be one’s inspiration.
I am, I am inspired.
