Ode to a Rook

Anonymous

  • "Leaving home" is a concept that everyone must eventually face, but it's one that's always had a special weight for me. Coming from a family who worked so hard just to come here, what right do I have to now leave? There's a guilt to it, but at the same time, it's something I know I have to do. This poem is a reflection on that, and the thought process I've come to adopt.

  • Creativity is a way to express myself, to get across the concepts that I've long had in my mind but never had a way to let out. It's a release, allowing me to make my thoughts and feelings known.
