"I'm nobody" poem

The speaker isn't really nobody. Someone has to be talking, that person calls his/herself nobody.
It's an outcast.

The speaker's mood is playful because she is talking to the other person like with a shouting tone. it can also be interpret as sad because it is sad to be nobody. To be ignored. The poem's moodis sarcastic because of the expressions it shows.

The theme is somebody that has nobody and feels like nobody. The poem is really representing somebody that is alone, that has nobody or feels like nobody.

The desire of beign alone does not always mean bad health, sometimes it's helpful to be alone and think about what you're going through if that's the case, but sometimes you should try socializing because you need someone to talk to even if you think you don't.

Some reasons of being alone are personal problems or family problems or that you are insecure and you don't have the capacity of making friends, or maybe you like being independent.

When someone rejects are company we feel sad and disappointed. You feel hopeless
 and you don't start making friends until long time passes. The problem could be about the 2 persons, maybe one has too many flaws for the other one, but you don't reject, you try to fix the problem.

This poem relates to speak because Melinda is also an outcast and she also feels invisible and like nobody.

The poem relates to the quote in speak because Heather tells Melinda that nobody knows her and that she doesn't do anything but it's really because she wants to be this way.

Elephant Poem

I imagine the speaker in this poem being a teenager girl that has gone through suffering or has a problem.

The "elephant" is a specific problem. They talk about other stuff ignoring the big problem.

If they talk about the elephant they would know what is going on and how is the problem advancing or getting better. They could probably think of a solution or do something to make it better, to feel better.

In my opnion the mood of this poem is mysterious because we don't know what the elephant is so a sensation of wanting to know what is going on. Curious but also gloomy because I imagine something serious is happening.

The author uses quotes like "how are you" and "I'm fine". This is effective because the reader can see that the conversation inside the room is very awkward and uncomftrable. It demonstrates that no one wants to talk the topic because it would be rude or not appropiate but it also shows everyone knows what is going on and somehow want to talk about it.

This poem relates to speak because the problem might be a girl has been raped and everybody know but nobody wants to bring it up because it might not be the time. I've had elephants in the room but long time ago so I really don't remember what they were.

Speak Object Project Stars...



Stars are, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful things on Earth, but they have it's science. They are composed of plasma and held by gravity. Almost all stars are from 1 billion to 10 billion years old. I identify with stars because they are always shinning and I feel like I give my best on everything possible so for me that's a way of shinning. I also think of stars and relate it to myself because they are very old, so they enjoy every second of their existence, and I enjoy every second of my life. The first thing that comes to my mind when someone mentions stars is a very romantic night, with every girl's prince, and perfect moments. Without stars, the nights would be with lack of brightness and they wouldn't be as pretty. I would miss stars because I always try to see them at night and form figures. How I see myself different than stars is that they are very far  away and I always like to keep close to everyone! Did you also know that the stars that have a lot of gravity become smaller every time and eventually turn into a black hole? Stars are very surprising!

Music!

I love singing. I've been doing it for almost 11 years. I also love music. It's my other half. Without music I wouldn't be me. Without a piano to express my feelings, sad, happy, inlove, upset I just wouldn't be complete. I tell everything to my old piano by the way I play it. MY MIND IS ALWAYS AT THE BEACH!!! ;)
