I have a group of students who meet me on a weekly basis. For a set period of time, we all (myself included) write on a given topic / prompt. My purpose is not to improve grammar or "teach" so to speak. I do this because I want my students to see words as I do. I want them to see that words are powerful. If used correctly, they can lift off a page and dance around - evoking all kinds of emotions.
For this particular piece, I gave students the first line, which they would have to continue writing on.
They all did so well, but I'd like to share one in particular today. Very well-written, Mohi!
Enjoy!

Do you believe me? I always wished for this gift, especially from you.
It was so boring without you, but now - I forgive you.
You suspect my reaction to everything.
You are my world. My air. My spirit.
I'm with you felling love, stability, peacefulness.
Feeling like I have everything.
Isolated.
Who are you?
Eating when you're hungry, drinking when you're thirsty?
I don't think so. Maybe you are an angel from the sky.
Maybe to the moon.
