Sadje is the host for #WhatDoYouSee challenge. It’s been a while since the last time I join this. I hope you enjoy my poem.

A girl who was once a fool She gave the key to her heart so easily For anyone who gave her a bit of attention Maybe because of the lack of affection she received Maybe because she lost a father figure Maybe because she’d been never good enough for her mother
A girl who was once a fool Now locked the door And kept the key hanging Waiting for the right person to open it again
GC and Sue W are the host for this weekly prompt. They asked us to share something about QUIET.

I like to indulge myself in various activities. Gathering with different communities and meeting new people excite me. I love to improve myself through several workshops or some social activities.
Nowadays, I have more responsibilities to take care of. I got tired easily. So, one of my escapism is to be alone in a quiet place. Either in my room with books or netflix or in a peaceful forest.
Lucky me, there’s a little forest near my house where people seldom passed through it. I feel like I found my safe haven.
Here’s some pictures I took around the forest.

The first thing that came to my mind when I heard the word blue is sky. Well, sometimes it gets cloudy and stormy. But when the sky is clear and blue, it could be comforting for some reasons.

Whenever I have a bad day, I like to look up at the sky. Just sat down and tilt my head up, admiring the nature. It’s been one of my favorite healing therapy.
Eugi is the host for this prompt. I’m gonna write a poem as usual. I don’t know, I think it’s easier for me to write a response to any prompt with a poetry. Let me know what do you think about it in the comment section below. Thank you and hope you enjoy 🙂
“Home is the place where someone is thinking about you.” – Jiraiya (Naruto, 1999)
Should be a safe haven
Should be a place to feel reassured
Should be a comfort zone
However
Mine is a superficial one
Mine is a broken one
Mine is a war zone
Maybe
That's why I'm feeling strayed
That's why I'm yearning desperately
That's why I'm searching hopelessly
For my kind of 'Home Sweet Home'.
I’m gonna submit a piece for another picture prompt held by Glen.
For these past weeks, I was unable to write a proper post, not even one. And it frustrates me even more because I have so many ideas in my head, yet I couldn’t pour it out appropriately.
Just like the tree on the picture below, it felt like I was chained down and trapped inside an infinite abyss.
Thank you, Glen. This wonderful picture truly evokes my spirit back.
So, this is the post for the last day of August. I hope I could write more in September.

Wish of a Tree
I dreamt of reaching the sky
Yearned for a pair of wings
Wished to fly freely
Like those birds
Nested on my branches
Sadly, I was made to be grounded
My roots run deeply in the soil
I dreamt of reaching the sky
Wondered how it feels like to touch the stars
I heard that the world is vast and beyond
How does it feel to liberally roaming around?
What a pity!
I couldn’t even walk on earth
For my legs have been chained down by mother nature
