POEM STARTER
All the world's a stage
Write a poem based on the stages of a person's life, inspired by William Shakespear's "As You Like it" monologue.
The worlds stage.
I told myself I wouldn’t live past sixteen, I felt as if I was a puppet in this world without the strings.
I told myself “ no one will love you “ until I believed it when I was staring at my ceiling at two in the morning.
I told myself I’d never lead up to anything at all crying in my bathroom floor.
Then I realized, this is the worlds stage, you have two choices.
Be an actor who plays the part or be a writer who tells the story
Are you ready?
This is the worlds stage.
What are you going to be?
