Imagination En Action

By Claudia Lapa

This message does not just refer to the people I thought liked me and two certain people but also the parents (mostly the moms), the students, the different gangs in my class, and my friends. Before you trust anybody, trust yourself first, and be careful of some exaggerated sentences that could hurt a lot of people! I know you never trusted me, and though I seemed to be happy, I wasnt actually inside. This book describes my depressing, heartbreaking, joyful, special moments through my journey in my grade-six class!

Claudia Lapa

I am an eleven-year-old girl who just finished primary. For five years, I have been living in Montreal, learning English and French. I was born in South Africa, and my first language is Afrikaans. Without my family, friends, and teachers, I would not have written this book. These poems inspired me by my grade-six class. I hope you will enjoy the poems, and I hope you will understand the same feeling as I did! Life doesn’t come easy. You have to work to succeed! Keep your head up. Don’t let the others put you down, and believe in your dreams!

Is She Me?

I stand up to the days of cold

I wouldn’t be bought neither sold

My every days, acting, trying to be a certain person

The only thing I don’t succeed is the truth, I only receive lies

My actions being watched, like if I am being followed by spies

Without being stopped, I would run to the deepest caves

Where I could wish on the magical waves

Where I would always tell the truth,

to the every teardrop my eyes can take

A place with a cold breeze, where I would lie awake

Shivering,can’t bare the cold but I will not give up

I will stand up, I will find a place where I can call safe

There wouldn’t be a world, in the dark

Here there is no laughing, talking not even one bark

Only the noise of my heavy breath,and if it choose,

that my body lies beneath the ground,it won’t be
