!/! A Word !/!

Words can never explain one true feelings
can never really define the exact meaning of something
can never portray the hidden intentions

however, words play an important role
in us
to start the day
to move people
to share secrets
to keep going on.

well. that's a simple poem that just came out from my mind as i wrote this. no editing is involved. straight from my heart. k, i asked my students of 5A2 to do a simple task > Think of a word, only a word that i've said or mentioned in the class that u can remember from jan till now. maybe the word has touched you or has a significant impact to your life, so far. i only want only a word from u. Next, write a poem of an A4 size about that word.

then, they started writing in maybe 20 minutes. they wrote it from their heart, good. a good exercise of letting it go. expressing things is not an easy thing to do. most people tend to just keep it to themselves. don't know why. putting everything together and making them into words are difficult task, yes, i know. but once u can get them through to other people, you've succeeded. succeeding in making your feelings or opinions or whatever is in your brain or heart out and reach other people's souls instead, it's really, really awesome. isn't it wonderful when you are able to do that? amazing right? it's truly a gift.

at first, i planned to paste the poems on the English notice board. however, some of them wrote my name in their poem. so, thinking of not wanting to be 'poyo' or 'chapub' as people nowadays might label me, i've decided to post them here, instead. so, i'll copy the poems one by one and comment on that. be updated!
