SUNSCREEN

After I watched the video "Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen", I realized that life is short. Making things that can be good to others is nice but, I think maybe sometimes, we can do things or sometimes we should break some rules to make ourselves happy in any way we want. Because in life, you can experience all the opportunities, you can't go back once the time has passed. Ignore what other people say, the mean things and all the insulting words because they are all just insecure. Be happy!

FRIED RICE

Wilfred loves to eat fried rice
Because for him it taste really nice
His days aren't complete 
When his wife won't cook it
For him fried rice is where his life lies

RHYME



TAP 

Every time I see him, he is so chubby
Every time I hug him, he is so fluffy 
Playing with him is a lot of fun
He is like a child, always wants to run

We lie on the grass
Ans he fell asleep, at last!
I think when I'm with him the time stops
Oh my little dog, I name you TAP.

30 Minutes

It's 11:05 in the evening
But here I am, thinking about my prince charming
Making questions out in my mind
If my prince will forever stay by my side

He is the man of my dreams
Picturing the "possibilities" that I will get married to him
Spending the rest of my life by his side
And make memories that wouldn't die

Now it's 11:35 pm
And I'm still thinking about my prince charming
Wondering the fairy tale I made up in my mind
But I know in myself, that fairy tales end up saying goodbye
