Creative Writing

Hi,

It's been awhile...not even sure if anyone even reads this, but I'll keep posting. I am taking a creative writing class this semester and really loving it. I find myself inspired to write often! I am going to post some of the stuff I think is good here, just because it feels like I should do something with it besides save it to my computer :)

This is a poem we had to write with repeating lines:

Worth It

You are worth it,
when your hair is a mess
and you’re wearing sweats.

You are worth it,
when your Prince hasn’t come
and you aren’t sure he will.

You are worth it,
when he breaks your heart
and makes you cry.

You are worth it,
when your friends abandon you
and you feel alone.

You are worth it,
when your parents yell
and tell you about the divorce.

You are worth it,
when they say you can’t
and you believe them.

You are worth it,
when you feel you can’t go on
and you want to give up.

You are worth it,
when you make a mistake
and your world falls apart.

You are worth it,
when you can’t take it anymore
and you want it all to end.

You are worth it,
Jesus died on the cross
and he did it for you.


(I'm working on another one that is due Wednesday that was inspired by our very own Holly Mae Plewa....)
