They didn't believe in her now they think twice 

She used it to her advantage in the games 

Shackled down by the game makers' chains 

Close to death on many occasions 

So winning the games was a grand celebration. ]]> 2023-02-10 17:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476749866 Food- Freddy Gamboa https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476752365 All day I feel it rumbling
My stomach constantly feels like its tumbling

I remember i have supplies in the fridge
I'm going to knock the door off its hinge

The thought of food makes my stomach sing
Finally i hear the bell ring

I run home thinking about the food
When i open the fridge i find it all chewed]]> 2023-02-10 17:49:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476752365 Keep it Pushing - Olisa Onwuli https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476752716 Life goes faster everyday

No time to think, no time to play

Chaos, work, lots of stress
Its all just such a mess

When will all the suffering cease

When is free time, when is peace

I will keep going till I drop 

Or if God ever tells me to stop]]> 2023-02-10 17:49:27 UTC https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476752716 It's too late- Makerii White https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476753591 We tease. Just for a breeze.

We race.  So we won't be late.

We're fast. We do the dash. 

        Now we crashed.

But tried to match

I want to fit in 
But had to put in 

I tried to copy 
But came out sloppy

I visioned perfect
But wasn't perfect

I stayed awake
But I took a break]]> 2023-02-10 17:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476753631 breeze- Georgia Hawkins https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476808488 like a breeze life flies by
all we do is tell the time

like a wave life will flow
only we know where to go

like a tree we all stand tall 
getting up when we fall

we stay and eat, we think and pray

like the world we are built this way ]]> 2023-02-10 18:37:45 UTC https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476808488 "Peace"- Uchena Nekes https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476813033 Mind at ease 
That's my favorite thing

No thoughts clouding my head
Laying down quietly on my bed

Muting all the unnecessary drama
Ignoring everyone cause' I wanna

Closing my eyes, into a dream
Waking up with noise and screams.]]> 2023-02-10 18:41:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476813033 Shaila Morado, - "Grief" https://padlet.com/lguy2/5u86cahoq6bqi9lw/wish/2476982719 There is no time to cry.
 Life keeps going by. 

The casket is now gone.
There is no moving on.

I didn't even say goodbye.
The people saw me cry.

The light has disappeared.
All I feel is fear.

Her hand was my life.
I just wanna hide.

Time keeps flowing by.
I survived.

Being fun and a delight. 

On the inside, I self hate. 
Pushing through another day.

Putting up this frame, 
Acting like nothing’s changed 

One of these days, I will go insane.
