//Never Back Down//
By: Hannah Reilly-Bennis

When the world can't look you in the eye and everyone is wearing a frown because no one will be kind I trust myself and will never back down from this sad world.

when everyone else seems to be mean, and make fun of people and me, I look in the sky and can't find a bright spot. I know all the stuff they said isn't true so i know i am a good and happy person so don't let them bother you and don't back down.

//**Nothing Frightens Me**//
By: Hannah Reilly-Bennis

Noises down the hall. Scary ghost along the wall. Life doesn't frighten me at all.

Whispers in my ear. That is all that i can hear. But life doesn't frighten me at all.

Scary dragons chasing me around. Big brown boots beating on the ground. But life doesn't frighten me at all. not at all not at all Life doesn't frighten me at all.

When I Am Full Of Laughter By: Samia Tarley When I am full laughter and everyone is near. I hear voices outside of me thats what I to hear. I in a open place surronded and social and i think of thoughts that are not my own. When I am full of laughter I run and jump and play. I always say when I am full of laughter I jump I paint pictures in my backyard. When I am full of laughter I love to fuss and say when am of laughter I'm fully truly me
