POEM STARTER

Submitted by Benjamin Linus

Create a poem around the theme of sonder.

Sonder is the realisation that everyone is living their own complex lives even if you aren’t aware of them.

Hey There Darling

Hey there darling,

Take the smile of your face

I know you’re not okay

I can see it in your trace


You don’t have to be

The perfect person they want

You can just be yourself

And no one else will taunt


I look when no one’s looking

And your facade fades away

You let out a deep sigh

I wish there was something I could say


Come with me

To a special place

I think you’ll like it

It’s called The Blank Space


Let all your worries go

And don’t regret a choice

For you will always be in my heart

And you will always have a voice


Hey there darling,

You will be okay

Even if it doesn’t feel like it

Because there will always be another day



To Izzy, Lyla, Nouky, and Rosie
